Location & what to see

The hotel is on the N-340 road, between Benalmádena and Fuengirola, next to the Carvajal coastal strip. Carvajal Beach is 300 m away; you can also visit Playa de Tajo de la Soga, 400 m away, or Playa de la Morera, 650 m away. The area is suitable for alternating days by the sea with visits to the town centres and local attractions.

Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is 12 km away. Carvajal station is 1 km away and Torremuelle station is 1.7 km away; from either, you can connect to the coastal train line to Fuengirola and Málaga. Torreblanca has another station 2.3 km away. These connections make it possible to get around the coast without always relying on a car, while you can drive or take a taxi from the airport to reach the hotel.

Nearby places include the Enlightenment Stupa and CostaWaterPark, both 1.3 km away, and Mariposario de Benalmádena, 1.4 km away. Castillo Monumento Colomares, 1.9 km away, is notable for its architecture dedicated to Christopher Columbus; Plaza de España is 2.3 km away. There are several stretches of sandy beach a short distance away. The hotel’s beach club, with swimming pools and slides, is open from 1 April to 31 October, so there are more water-based activities during those months.
