This apartment is located in a gated community, surrounded by 28,000 square meters of subtropical gardens, with swimming pool areas and lighted walkways for your enchanting evening strolls. While the beach, shops, restaurants and bars are just a short 5 to 10 minute walk away, you will still enjoy a tranquil and quiet apartment, with absolutely no street noise.
La Cala de Mijas, located in the heart of Costa del Sol, has something for everyone. Whether you are on a family vacation with toddlers, on a golf holiday with friends, or simply enjoy being able to walk to romantic restaurants, retail stores, bars, grocery stores, playgrounds, historical landmarks, or the beaches, this is the town for you! “La Cala” has the perfect mix of restaurants from around the world, as well as local tapas, and the international clientele to go with it.
La Cala is well connected to nearby towns and cities, - just 10 minutes from Fuengirola and Marbella, and 20 minutes from Malaga and its international airport. Public transportation is available from the airport to within 3 minutes walking distance from the apartment.
For your convenience you have access to an underground parking space, as well street-level parking. Other extras, available to you free of charge, include: high speed DSL Internet, a fixed safe for your passports and valuables, baby and toddler friendly features (see below), pool and beach toys for the kids, as well as a pair of bicycles for your exploration of this magnificent coastal region.
The air conditioned (both heating and cooling) apartment is furnished to be your second home, and not just another rental, with all the features you would expect to find in your neighbor’s house. The first room on your right is the fully stocked kitchen, for those of us who love cooking. All appliances are brand new, and include a dishwasher, as well as a washer and dryer. A small kitchen bar offers a place to hang out for a drink while the food is cooking. Straight ahead leads to the dining and living room. The living room has everything you need to entertain your friends and family, with a 42” TV, sound system, Playstation 3 with a Bluray and DVD player, SKY Satellite receiver, movies, board games, cards, books, and a sofa-bed that can comfortably sleep two. On your left is a bedroom with a garden view window, closet, two twin beds, and a twin bed doubler, if you choose to put the two beds together to form a king. Next to it is a bathroom with a marble shower with views of the garden. Ahead to your left is the master bedroom, with its own walk-in closets, and an in suite master bathroom, enjoying a double marble sink, and a candle-lined tub, for your moments of complete relaxation. Accessed from either the master bedroom or the living room is the over-sized terrace / balcony. A portion of the terrace is enclosed with fold-away glass walls, and houses the large outdoor dining table for 8, as well as the optional 3rd bedroom (sofa-bed for 2 with glass and heavy curtain walls), which can also be enjoyed as a day-room away from the direct daytime sun. The terrace also features a private spa / hot tube / Jacuzzi, from where you can enjoy a bottle of wine, while watching the last of the sun’s rays fade. The terrace has views of both the sea and the mountains.
In the interest of making the holiday as relaxing and enjoyable as possible for those traveling with babies and toddlers, we have gone the extra mile for you, by providing the items you need the most, and which can be such a chore to transport. These items include: extra bibs, sterilizers, a cot, folding high chair, child-proof plugs, a folding baby bath, baby monitors, push chair / stroller, and a universal insect net to protect your sensitive little ones.
There are so many facilities in the local area that you will never run out of things to do, with or without a car. La Cala de Mijas still has that small town charm and feel, yet the sophistication and amenities of a modern city. Every Wednesday and Saturday you can walk to the local market, where you can purchase anything from fresh produce, to clothing, jewelry, and everything in between. There are Irish Bars, English Bars and Spanish Bars, all within a few blocks of each other. You will find restaurants and retail stores up and down the narrow, cobble stone streets. A 10 minute walk will take you to an amazing beach, with miles of the Costa del Sol’s finest sand. A pirate ship playground is located along the beach walk promenade, and it is a big hit with the kids, when they need a break from the ocean. Two modern grocery stores are within easy walking distance of home. Take either public transportation or a car for a 10 minute drive to the enormous local shopping mall (Parque Miramar), with over 160 shops (including the likes of H&M, Zara, and Blanco) and a multiplex theater with 12 cinema screens.
La Cala de Mijas was once home to the Moors, and you can still tour the many castles, walls and towers that are left behind as a part of Spain’s rich and vibrant heritage. The apartment is situated in the Golf Valley, with 9 excellent courses, including The famous La Cala Golf, Mijas Golf, Mira Flores Golf, La Siesta Golf, La Noria Golf, Santana Golf, Calanova Golf, and El Chapatral Club de Golf. For those who enjoy horse racing, do not miss a wonderful and exciting day at the Hipodromo Costa del Sol, just a 5 minute drive away.
With so much to see, and so much to do, combined with a modern, centrally located apartment, we hope you will come visit, and join those of us who have fallen in love with Cala de Mijas, our home away from home.
