When considering your
HOLIDAY RENTALS IN COSTA DEL SOL, take a look at the ancient village of Benahavis. This quintessentially Andalucian village sits high up in the mountains in the Malaga province. You will be amazed at how well known this village is for its cuisine and culture. In addition the locals will welcome you with open arms, extending all the courtesy you could ask for.
When in Benahavis you must sample the local cuisine: it will give you an out-of-body experience not experience anywhere else. If a food expert happens to be passing by and stops for a meal the only way to get rid of him is to close the place. When sampling the food in one restaurant you can't just stop there. You will have to sample the food at the next restaurant as it only gets better and better. When you book your holidays here be sure and bring you big size clothes and don't book a leaving date. Honestly the food is that good: you may have to take some home with you.
At the summit of the largest mountain in the area you will find the 11th century Arabic castle of Montemayor or what's left of it. For your attempt to reach the top you might consider bringing your best walking boots with you. The trip to the top is a good way to work off some of the calories you put on when dinning in the village. Upon reaching the summit you will see the magnificent views over the region and on the way up there is an abundance of wildlife. This is a great place for climbing during the off season as it is not as busy as it is in the summer.
If you are up for a game of golf after you have succumbed to the Benahavis cuisine, then head down the hill to the Guadalmina Gorge which is seven kilometres. At the end of this short journey you will come across the mountainous Guadalmina Golf course. Don't expect to find a normal course mapped out in this mountainous countryside. This exceptional course is a shot makers dream come true. It is guaranteed to offer a different challenge unlike what you have back home. Be sure and bring your handicap certificate with you as they are required for most courses: you don't want to miss the opportunity to play this interesting course.
If you can tear yourself away from all the food and golf, you might consider making the short trip down to the beach. It is only a short drive along the coast to the vibrant seaside resort of San Pedro. The pristine beaches found here have been awarded the prestigious European Blue Flag for cleanness, safety and the provision of all required facilities. Don't worry about finding a place to call your own as the beaches are never that crowded, you can always find a place to put your towel. All you need to do now is top up your tan and go for a dip in the Mediterranean Sea.
When staying in your
HOLIDAY RENTALS IN COSTA DEL SOL you might consider a trip to the town of Puerto Banus. A good way to spend the day is watching the multi-million dollar yachts as they enter and leave the marina. You can also do a little shopping at the modern boutiques and jewellery stores with their top of the line merchandise on offer. The nightlife here is exceptional, what else would you expect with all the rich and famous that live or dock their boats here.
