Owner's Tips...

The local area has many attractions for all ages. There are clean beaches, numerous golf courses and the usual cafes, bars and restaurants. Within easy walking distance are several chiringuitos; these are situated on the beach and renowned for their fish dishes. The paella served by the Viborilla is second to none! If you want more than eating and sun-bathing then there are a wide range of activities and days out. To include; the renowned Fuengirola Zoo, Selwo Marina (boasting the only Penguinariam in Europe) with Dolphin shows daily, the Crocodile Park, mini Golf, Sealife Centre,and Tivoli Theme Park. Paloma Park is lovely for a stroll and picnic - everything a park should be.

In the area there is horseriding, mountain bike hire, sailing, scuba-diving and more. For the more relaxed, there are day trips to charming whitewashed mountainside villages, shopping in Gibraltar, and various trips with wine and sherry tasting. With the local train station a mere 5 minute walk away more adventurous trips can be planned.
