Pros: Really enjoyable holiday. The property was spacious and well looked after. The living room and large balcony has fantastic panoramic views of the sea and we enjoyed watching the local fishing boats throughout the day. It is a 5 minute walk down to the sea, down some steps and a private tunnel under the road arriving at the boardwalk. The boardwalk gives you a beautiful walk either way left into Midas town or right down the coast. It is understandably very popular with both locals and visitors, and I understand that it will be extended to Fuengirola in the near future.
Mike and his son Tomas are really helpful landlords, from picking up at airport to a trip to the supermarket on the first day. They both live close by and can be called at any time, they are so helpful. Their hospitality is 5 star plus.
Mijas is a lovely town, 30 minutes walk away, certainly not spoilt or overdeveloped but enough local beach restaurants and bars to make it entertaining. There is excellent public transport to Fuengirola, Malaga and further. We stayed in this apartment and again the the larger “Atico” this year, my sister in law has stayed here for 3 months by herself, it is very safe for single women.
