On exciting the airport terminal, the taxi rank is located on the right hand side. Uber and Bolt (via Apps) also operate from the airport.

The train station is a 2 minute walk across from the airport terminal - just follow the train signs. Please purchase a ticket to Fuengirola from the ticket machines at the ground floor entrance.

Lovely apartment in beautiful La Cala
La Cala is a great place for a family holiday and the apartment was a fantastic base. The large balcony gives views across to the sea and to the large pool and the apartment itself was clean and spacious for the 4 of us with an excellent shower. The apartment was well equipped for any stay to prepare a meal and the proximity to Lidl made shopping easy without the need for a car. You can walk to the beach in around 10-15 minutes dependent on where you prefer to be as well as a number of restaurants in La Cala itself. Communication with Mags prior to our stay and then with Jackie whilst we were away meant that checking in and out was made easy. All in all we had a lovely holiday and recommend without hesitation.

Mijas apartment
The whole area surrounding the apartment was aesthetically pleasing and the apartment it’s self was very well equipped and tastefully decorated. We hired a car for our stay as it was required to access golf courses but central location in the town is excellent for restaurants, bars, the local market and shops, Lidl is about 500m from apartment. The beach was easily accessible on foot about a 5min walk from the apartment. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to get back.

Fantastic apartment in great location
From 1st communicaiton with Mags to end of the visit and handover with Liz everthing was spot on. The apartment itself is very spacious, and has everything you need while self catering. Very much a home from home. The complex is very secure, and very well maintained. Plenty of areas to sit by the pool, and on the grassy area surrounding it. Lots of palm trees so shady areas as well if needed. The pool is a lot bigger than the photos show, and was a decent temperature. The apartment is a 5 min walk to the Lidl at the bottom of the road, and is really well stocked, and laid out very much like the ones in the UK. The pastries are gorgeous, and plenty of choice. It is about 15 mins to the centre, with plenty of choice for food and drink. La Cala has a lovely family feel to it, our visit coincided with the 4 day destival which added to the experience. All in all a wonderful aparttment in a beautiful town. Book it, you will not be disappointed.

Once again excellent!
Having stayed several times before, we know the apartment and complex very well and it’s excellent standards. But it has been further improved with upgraded bathrooms which are great. Margaret (the owner) recommended Malagatransfer.co.uk to take us to and from the airport, which we used and their service was first class! Also we discovered a gem of a restaurant called Novo on the parade of shops, bars etc, (turn right at Lidl and walk straight on for a few minutes). Excellent service, very friendly and delicious food at reasonable prices! Finally, thanks to Liz the apartment manager for her support and guidance. Another great stay, we’ll be back!

Willmore’s break
We never revisit a holiday resort for fear it would change for the worse The last time we visited la Cala we had such a relaxing break we decided to do it again. Surprisingly it didn’t disappoint The apartment was very clean, cooking utensils were as new no hesitation in using them which is unusual for the wife, (sexist I know) but Jackie is quite particular about that sort of thing Helped having lithe supermarket within a 5 minute walk Buses were cheap and punctual and the train to Malaga was very nice trip Walking on the 6k promenade was a real treat Will we go back YES.
