A Hot Spot on the Costa del Sol
Benalmádena is a large urban area that is home to approximately 50,000 residents. Its proximity to Malaga airport only 12km away and an array of fantastic amenities make it a hugely popular holiday destination for people from all over Northern Europe.
Aside from the influx of holiday makers many northern Europeans love the lifestyle here so much that they have decided to make Benalmádena their permanent base.
Benalmádena Pueblo, the original town is charming and features traditional whitewashed homes and narrow winding cobbled streets. The town expanded in the direction of the seaside creating the area now known as Benalmádena Costa, where much of the tourist action takes place.
Benalmádena Costa is home to the sophisticated Puerto Marina, recently upgraded it offers berthing for over 100 luxury yachts and boats as well as housing sophisticated restaurants, bars, nightclubs and a large commercial centre.
Both areas are popular destinations for visitors, some prefering the hustle and bustle of Benalmádena Costa while the Pueblo appeals to those who prefer a more tranquil setting yet wish to remain within easy distance of the coast.
