The appartment in the city center of Málaga was outstanding! We spent Semana Santa there with our 3 kids (8/8/10 years old) and felt like at home. The appartement ist big, clean and very clean and comfortable. Everything you need is close by, the beach is within walking distance and so are the fortress of Málaga or the city center. The hosts (we communicated with Juan and met Mar) are very nice. The kept us posted about streets that were closed because of the processions in Semana Santa, told us other ways to get somewhere and offered help in anything we needed. They sent us some recommendations regarding places to eat (each one with a link to google maps). We appreciated that a lot, it's always great to have suggestions from locals. We frequented Byoko for breakfast several times, of course Casa Aranda for churros con chocolate a couple of times, Cambara (a tapas bar in the port) and El Pimpi which was our favourite place for dinner (they have the typical pescaíto frito). Málaga itself is a great city to stay at and a good point to start excursions from in whole Andalucía.
