If you are contemplating holidaying in Spain you might consider staying at one of the popular Calahonda apartments on the Costa Del Sol. Calahonda is a favourite destination for many holiday-makers, due to its idyllic location which is set on the Mediterranean Sea mid way between Fuengirola and Marbella (both about 10 minutes’ drive away). Calahonda’s has masses of facilities with an excellent bus service for those not wishing to driveor hire a car, and a very wide variety of bars, restaurants and shops.

Interested? You will need to find a suitable rental villa or apartmentproperty. We highly recommend staying at Las Palmeras de Calahonda, which is a new apartment complex set at the top of the hills majestically overlooking mountains and rolling rural countryside down to the seabelow. Properties at Las Palmeras have 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, each bathroom having a bath with shower over and double sinks. The apartments can comfortably sleep 4-6 persons.

For those holidaymakers who just want to relax one can do worse than visit the local harbours of Marbella and Puerto Banus. One of my favourite haunts is Calahonda’s own harbour, Puerto Cabopino, just 5 minutes along the coast road towards Gibraltar. If sport is your thing whilst on holiday or you just fancy having go, play tennis at the Aztec Sports Centre or the new Club Del Sol. Try the water sports at Cabopino, or play golf at one of the many excellent local golf courses, Club Siesta, just two minutes from Las Palmeras, or Cabopino Golf Course. Although there are quite a few more nearbyif you want plenty of variety. Why not go shopping for a day for the latest fashions in the modern shopping centres of Fuengirola, Marbella and Puerto Banus or simply try to haggle for a bargain at the local weekly markets. If you spend too much one can always try and win some back by having a flutter horse racing at Hipodromo Race Course.

If you do not fancy moving too far from where you are staying, Calahonda has three commercial centres, which house most of the development’s 45 restaurants, cafeterias and pubs as well as seven banks, and several supermarkets. Calahonda is known as one of the leading and most popular residential communities on the Costa del Sol, whose population swells from just 14,000 to around 45,000 in the high season. This, of course, ensures the population is well catered for.

Las Palmeras de Calahonda is very easyfor tourists to reach, being just 25 minutes from Malaga International Airport. You can either take the coastal road or the toll road. There are plenty of car hire facilities at Malaga Airport. If you do not wish to drive, then you will find a taxi will cost approximately 50 Euros each way. One can also fly into Gibraltar International Airport, some 60 minutes awayas an alternative method of travelling. We regularly fly into both airports, depending on the cost of the best available flights. Calahonda is also very well serviced by buses.

So if you wish to stay at a apartments in Calahonda for your holiday consider renting an apartment at the resort of Las Palmeras de Calahonda.
