Top Tips from our customers for Beaches & Sights in Benalmadena - Costa del Sol

Would definitely book up with TravelRepublic to go back to the Torrequebrada Hotel. Worth paying that little bit extra for a Superior room and the Junior Suites are excellent. If you dont fancy driving in Spain, don't let that out you off this hotel, there is bus stop in both directions right outside the hotel's palatial front door.(if you can dodge past the two bright red Ferraris. Maybe get the public service bus outward and get a taxi back from either Benalmadena Marina or Fuengirola. Well worth a visit, recommended and extremely good value for money. Will be going back next year, probably twice! Thank you TravelRepublic! from Geoffrey

Definately book a full tour trip to Gibraltar it is seriously worth every Euro which by the way only cost 23.50 euros per person any how. It's only two and half hours from the hotel and you get to see english shops in a spanish climate heaven! the cigarettes and booze is unbelievably cheep shame theres a limit to how much you can bring back though. The Apes are amazing to see freely wondering about I fed one with a croissante from the hotel breakfast buffet which was yummy and the ape agreed. Saint Davids cave is beautiful in all a must see. from Amy

The cable cars up in to the mountain were excellent we went at 8pm and were there till 11.45pm. On Mon Wed Fri during July & Aug they have a planteterium which giant telescopes with an english man guiding you through the skies well worth a visit. You must also go up to the spanish village of Mihas on the bus it cost less that a £1 and was around 50 mins ride once there well worth it for the views. Benalmadena marina is also a pleasant 20 min walk along the promenade. from Jeffrey

We did an excellent boat trip on a Chinese Junk from the marina - saw lots of dolphins. The two guys who ran the trip were very friendly and helpful. There is a park nearby - lovely gardens, cafes, bars - great playfground for kids from Hilary

We took a dolphin trip on a catamaran from the marina. It was fantastic. The restaurants on the second level of the marina are very nice. Do try the sardines that are cooked on open grills shaped as big wooden boats. They are found near cafes all along the marina. The Aqua Park in Fuengirola is good fun for a day out and, apparently, there's another one in Torremolinos. Information leaflets for many local attractions can be found in the hotel reception area. from Vivien

If you get chance go to Aqualand. Its a great day out for all ages. There is also a lovely sea front walk down to the Marina, which is great for all those holiday souveneres. from Taryn

There is a fantastic park about 1 mile away with animals including dolphin shows bars coffee shops and even a public library, in lovely surroundings, must be visited, we loved it. opposite the hotel there is also a friendly irish bar/cafe for those who get homesick and miss english food, great welcome fine food and good value for money, try their homemade vegetable soup. from C

Fuengirola parasailing smile high was excellent and Pappy's bar near McDonalds on main stretch was absolutely spot on for food and the staff were so accommodating. Try the blackend chicken if you like very hot food. from H
