Spanish Apartments for Rent – Try the Costa del Sol for a Beach Holiday with Fantastic Weather
Spanish apartments for rent are very popular on the Costa del Sol which is the densely populated coast of Andalucia. The Costa del Sol stretches from Almeria to Tarifa and is one of Spain's most popular tourist destinations to book a holiday in Spain villa. If you want to rent a luxury villa in Spain try one of the fabulous Costa del Sol resorts with their miles of splendid beaches and fantastic summer weather.
Malaga
This is the capital of the Costa del Sol and is a major tourist resort with millions of tourists visiting this cosmopolitan city every year. It has many tourist attractions including sandy beaches, world-class golf courses, beautiful scenery, excellent restaurants and great nightlife. It is also the birthplace of the notable painter Pablo Picasso and there is an interesting museum which is dedicated to his life and work.
Eastern Costa del Sol
The eastern Costa del Sol can be found east of Malaga City and Nerja is the most well-known resort in this region. Nerja is a popular seaside resort built on a cliff with pleasant sandy coves sheltered by the sierra de Almijara Mountains. The temperate climate of the area makes it a great place to book Spanish apartments for rent or a holiday in Spain villa at any time of the year. There are plenty of places of interest in Nerja if you want to stray away from your Spanish villas for rent or the beach. A great way to explore Nerja is to take a trip on the Tourist Train which does a round trip which starts and finishes at Castilla Perez and costs 4 Euros per person. To get the best views of the area you must visit the Balcon de Europa which is a rocky promontory which was formerly a fortress designed to keep out marauding pirates. If you rent a luxury villa in Spain in Nerja be sure to visit the famous Cuevas de Nerja (Nerja caves) which feature wall paintings which are believed to be 20,000 years old.
Western Costa del Sol
The western Costa del Sol is more widely known internationally than the eastern part and it is highly urbanized and has some of the finest holiday resorts where you can book Spanish apartments for rent. The western part of the coastline begins at Malaga city and stretches westward up to the border of Cadiz province. Popular resorts to book holiday villas or Spanish apartments for rent include Torremolinas, Benalmadena, Fuengirola, Calahonda, Marbella, Puerto Banus, Estepona and Sotogrande. The western Costa del Sol is ideal for a family holiday as there are theme parks, water parks, go-karting tracks, safari parks and many attractive public gardens. The historic town of Ronda is probably the most well-known inland holiday destination.
Golf & Sport
There are over 70 golf courses in the province of Andalucia 45 of which are situated along the Costa del Sol. Four of these are ranked in the top ten in Europe so if you book your Spanish apartments for rent or your holiday in Spain villa on the Costa del Sol you will be a golfer’s paradise! As well as golf there is a variety of other sporting activities available such as sailing, scuba diving and horse riding if you rent a luxury villa in Spain on the fabulous Costa del Sol.
