TO GET THERE
If you arrive with plane at Malaga airport you have several options:
1. This is what I do: Take the train (C1 (Cercanias 1) from the airport towards Fuengirola. It takes about 30 minutes and cost 2,70€ pr. person. It leaves every 20 minutes. From Fuengirola, it is easiest to take a cap (14€) to the apartment in La Cala de Mijas. (Bus from Fuengirola to La Cala de Mijas is possible also)
2. Cap from airport to La Cala de Mijas is around 50€ (I do it when arriving late or when I am very lazy :-))
3. Rent a car – it’s cheap and you can easily go around the coast and mountains
PARKING
There is lots of free parking around the building. There is a “hidden” parking also behind Esmeralda 1, drive-in right next to the grocery shop in the building.
CHECK-IN/OUT TIME
Its flexible, but if we don’t agree otherwise;
Check-in: 15.00
Checkout 11.00
WHEN YOU ARRIVE
When arriving the apartment is cleaned and beds are made. The bathroom has towels, and there is water for a start in the fridge. So this is what you should expect on arrival.
WHEN LEAVING
You DON’T have to wash sheets & towels, floors or bathroom. This is included in the cleaning fee.
EXPECTED OF YOU WHEN LEAVING
Carry out garbage, wash dishes and leave it tidy.
GET AROUND
You have a short distance to the beach (350m) and the center of town (850m). It’s a lovely neighborhood and its kept very clean. From town, you can go by bus to Marbella, Fuengirola, and Malaga (and possibly anywhere :-))
SHOPPING
Shopping simple groceries (and heavy stuff like water) is possible in a small local supermarket in the building Esmeralda 1. You will possibly want to shop for more special food, fish, and meat. For this, there is Marcadona – a supermarket 10 minutes away.
MARKET´S
Every Saturday and Wednesdays there is a street market in town. It’s in walking distance, but ask for directions when you hit the town. A lot of Chinese electronics and fake copies of everything is sold, but you can find good fruits and veg’s, nuts, olives and a dress for the beach here. Tuesday is a street market in Fuengirola which is bigger (the biggest on the coast) and has more handicrafts.
PLACES TO GO
Ronda: A bigger village in the mountains. It’s a great trip in the car up there and a nice full-day trip.
Mijas: This nearest white city is the center of the Mijas region. It’s touristic, but have great eating, small handicraft shops. Go deep in the city – there will be fewer people and you can peek into the local gardens. I really like the Photo art Gallery.
PLACES TO EAT
Finer dining: El Olivo de la Cala.
This fine restaurant is just by the beach. I go here twice a year. They have great food and drinks and you can take a beach walk before and after.
Also, do a search for La Lala de Mijas on Trip advisor
I have not been to them all – but give me a hint if you find any really good places :-).
