Things To See, Do And Taste In The Costa Del Sol’s Calahonda Area

Calahonda, which is situated on the Spanish Costa Del Sol, has grown into a mecca for the European tourist trade over recent years. It is now so large one could easily mistake it for a town in its own right. Being such a size it is everything that a town has to offer. There are a wide selection of Villas in Calahonda to choose from and much to see and do on a break away.

The council for Calahonda have put much energy ans effort into lifestyle for its inhabitants and tourists alike. For example there are at least ten different golf courses to select from within a small radius. One can also sample from a excellent selection of local water sports and there are a variety of tennis courts and a fitness centre for those who want something a little more active.

One of the jewels in Calahonda’s crown is Puerto Cabopino its very own port, which is very small and very charming. Next to the port there is also a glorious beach. There are several restaurants and cafes in the port which makes it a lovely place to sit and relax and while away the hours relaxing and soaking up the sun and the general feel of the place.

The majority of the Calahonda bars are sited in the multi-storey commercial centre, El Zoco. As for restaurants, Calahonda boasts at least 45 restaurants and cafeterias to choose from. You need to stay a while to sample all of them!

If you are visiting Calahonda, we can recommend renting in Las Palmeras and there are an excellent selection of Villas Las Palmeras to choose from.

Las Palmeras is a brand new development, which is sited in an elevated position at the rear of Calahonda giving inspiring views over rural areas to the sea. There are a wide varieties of different types and sizes of rental properties available in Las Palmeras. These range from 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms apartments (sleeping 6 persons), to 3 bed roomed penthouses. There are a number of pools for use. The apartments are of a very generous proportion being approx 110sm internally and having balconies of 42.5sm.

If you you are unable to use a hire car whilst on holiday you can instead try out the mini land train which runs down into Calahonda and back at a small cost. If you have children they will love the experience and the excitement of this sort of mini tour.

Calahonda is only 30 minutes from Malaga Airport and most budget airlines will get you there from the major UK airports in less than two and a half hours. Weather wise, expect sunshine 12 months of the year. It will rain in winter but there is much to do and so much to see whenever you visit.
