Beatifull garden apartment in the Minerva complex of Benalmadena, Costa del Sol

Lovely bright beautifully decorated apartment within the popular Minerva Complex. Five swimming pools within an extensive and well-kept garden area. The swimming pools count with a team of life guards during high season and a lovely café bar alongside, only available to residents. On site is a 24-hour English speaking reception, hairdresser, beauty salon, etc. Across the road from the complex is the popular Bonanza Square, with its many and varied restaurants, bars, cafes and entertainment. Minerva complex is just a 15-min taxi ride from Malaga airport. Benalmadena Costa: Benalmadena is split into two sections with Benalmadena Costa the part of most interest to the many tourists who visit this popular Costa del Sol resort every year. The resort lies 15km south west of Malaga airport between the resorts of Fuengirola and Torremolinos. Benalmadena Costa is a coastal resort extending 8km along the coast which climbs up into mountains behind. The cable car from the coast up to the top of the mountain is a worthwhile trip. Benalmadena has more than 8km of blue flag beaches some of which are in small coves. A lot of work is carried out to maintain the cleanliness of the Costa Del Sols beaches. There are sun loungers and shades available for rent on the beaches as well as water sports available. Small bars and cafes line the flat promenade, which streches to Benalmadea Marina. Above Benalmadena Costa on the side of the mountain is Benalmadena Pueblo which is an attractive traditional Spanish Village. Entertainment in Benalmadena Costa: There's plenty of entertainment to amuse children, parents and grandparents alike. If you want to venture away from the swimming pool at Minerva and the beautiful local beaches Tivoli World amusement park is in nearby Arroyo de la Miel and has Wild West and flamenco shows and a cable-car ride. Equally popular are the Selwo Marina Dolphinarium and the Sealife Centre which has the biggest shark collection in Europe. There are water-sports facilities at the yacht club and plenty of golf courses in the vicinity. The stunning Benalmadena Marina is well worth the walk or short taxi ride from Minerva, during the day its a haven for everyone. During the night the Marina attracts the younger crowd who visit the many night clubs, many of which stay open all night! Locally the area surrounding the Minerva Complex is more geared towards families, although it offers many and varied bars, cafes, restaurants & entertainment it has a policy of no music to be played outside after midnight. Places to visit near Benalmadena Costa: The most popular excursions from Benalmadena include Marbella, Fuengirola, especially on market day, and Mijas. From Benalmadena Marina you can walk all the way along a flat promenade to Torremolinos with plenty of bars and restaurants on the way for refreshment. Slightly further afield are the Caves of Nerja and Malaga city tour. Full day tours are available to Granada to visit the Alhambra Palace, Seville, Cordoba, Ronda, Gibraltar and even Tangier in Morocco. If you don't fancy a scheduled coach tour or driving, you can always find a taxi for local outings and there are regular coastal bus services up and down the coast. The local train station is just a ten min walk from Minerva in Arroyo de la Miel, from which you can travel the length of the coast from Malaga right down to Gibraltar, the trains are excellent value for money. The trains leave for Malaga city every 30 mins, it’s well worth the effort to see the Moorish ruins of the Gibralfaro and the new Picasso museum.

Perfect location and host
Rosario was firstly very patient, waiting almost two hours after our agreed time to meet us to drop the keys off at close to midnight. She was incredibly kind to us and our son. The apartment itself is as shown, very cost and well designed. The Minerva complex is a great location, close enough to the beach and loads of options for food etc. We do plan on potentially visiting Rosario again in the future when our some is a little older.

Great apartment in ideal location
Just returned from a 5 night stay. The apartment is really modern inside, and is fully equiped with everything you should need during your stay. The location is perfect, with a large range of bars and restaurants on your doorstep. Rosario was lovely (host met us in reception) and gave a detailed tour of the apartment explaining where everything was. I would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in Benalmadena

Lovely spotless appartment close to everything
Just returned from a lovely stay here. The appartment was spotlessly clean and organised with everything you could need. Rosario was so helpful, even getting us in the appartment earlier as we had early flights. Nice complex, feels very safe and only a short walk to the beach and marina where there are plenty of restaurants. Good supermarket just across the road. Would definitely return. Great stay.

Great in every way. Rosario was a great hostess and always available to answer any questions. The apartment had everything you needed. And the internet was super-fast. Really enjoyable stay and wouldn't stay anywhere else next time we are in Benalmadena. And Rosario's grandson was a perfect host, he carried our suitcases and spoke better English than both of us :) Thank you!

Minerva holiday
The property is ideally situated near restaurants and bars and Bonanza Square. There is a supermarket near by and the bus stop to Torremolinos or Fuengirola is just 5 minutes away. Rosario was an excellent host and the apartment was extremely well equipped with most essential items provided to start our holiday straight away. We have been visiting Benalmádena over the last 32 years and have often stayed in the Minerva. We would have no hesitation in recommending this apartment as it is one of the best.

There is something to do for every taste and budget within 20 minutes walk from this prefect location. Close to the beach , the park, Arroyo , it was just perfect . The apartment was very well appointed with pretty much everything you have at home including a washing machine which is a godsend with 2 going kids, I would highly recommend and we will be returning
