Both myself & my wife stayed at Lorenas apartment. We checked in late due to our flight time and because of this Lorena had to come and meet us at 23.30. This wasn't a hassle and Lorena done this without fuss.
The apartment is very clean and stylish. The beach across the road is amazing and of great value . You can hire a sun lounger for the whole day for €4.00.
The local shops are really cheap compared to other areas of Costa Del Sol. This is a real selling point. The restaraunts & bars are also fantastic.
A short walk along the prom takes you to Malaga. The range of bars and restaurants are great and all of a high standard but at a relevant low cost.
Malaga is very safe. It caters for locals and tourists. At night time, especially the weekend, local people are out and about socialising and enjoying themselves. The locals are very friendly and also give you space. No hassles at all.
Lots to do and ideal for a short city break. If I was to return I would definitely stay in the same location.
