This was our 2nd stay at the Nueva Calahonda apartments and it certainly didn’t disappoint. The apartment is in a fabulous location, at the top of the mountain with a nice cool breeze and an AMAZING view, which we enjoyed most whilst relaxing in the hot tub sipping a cold glass of Spanish wine!
The apartment itself is modern, clean and spacious with everything you need for a self-catering holiday. However our favourite thing about this apartment is the sun terrace, unlike being squashed on a balcony with a couple of chairs, this really is another living space, with 6 sun loungers, a large table & 6 chairs, the huge hot tub and the gas BBQ, there was still ample space for us all (family of 4). We loved having lazy mornings on the sun terrace before heading off to the beach or spending the day at the apartment, heading down to the pool to cool down when needed (which is great and never over crowded) and then coming back for an evening BBQ of fresh fish.
I would recommend hiring a car to fully appreciate the area. The buses do run regularly along the main A7 and there are a couple of bars/restaurants half way down the mountain, however with 2 small children we didn’t even attempt the walk. Plus having the car gives you the freedom to explore a bit further, we had great days out in Gibraltar, Benalmádena , Mijas and the BioParc in Fuengirola there are some lovely local towns, La Cala & Mijas are great for meals out. The beaches are also great, with Cabopino being our favourite, I can recommend paella at Andy’s Beach bar and a stroll along the beach to watch the sunset!
All in all a beautiful, spacious, luxurious apartment in a fabulous location, many thanks for another wonderful family holiday!
