One of our favourite resaturants in the Miramar Shopping Centre is Cantina Mariachi. They make an amazing Chicken Enchilada... it goes down especially well with a cold beer!

We recently discovered this restaurant. It is located in El Zoco at the bottom of the Calahonda strip. It is a small family owned Italian pizzeria run by Gino and Stella. They make a number of different dishes all cooked fresh to order. The pizzas at Bar Stella (also known as Cafe Stella) are amazing. Our children love eating here too, so if you have children you will not be disappointed. Gino and Stella are both excellent hosts!

We visit this restaurant every time we come to Spain. The chiringuito is located on a clean, sandy beach. The restaurant serves lovely food and drinks all day with regular live music. You can enjoy a relaxing drink and food while watching your children play in the sea! This restaurant is under 2.5km (timed at 25mins walk) from the apartment and has a great atmosphere.

We visited this lovely Japanese restaurant with our family. It is slightly on the expensive side for the amount of food you get, however the experience is great. The children enjoyed watching the chef cook the food in front of them while juggling and setting the food on fire. The food was tasty and the experience was great.

Drinks & Nightlife

Andy's Beach Bar is great for having a few drinks while the kids play safely in the shallow waters in front of you. The service is great and so is the atmosphere.

Sightseeing

This is an amazing city built over a large gorge. It is very scenic and requires lots of walking (some parts can be quite steep). There are lots of restaurants and bars to visit and they all serve lovely food. It is best to wear walking shoes or trainers for this trip.

Marbella is a great city to visit. It is situated right on the coast. There are plenty of great beaches to visit. The side streets and beaches all have bars and restaurants for when you feel it's time for a break. The main roads have lots of shops including designer stores. Don't forget to visit the shops along the beach though... you can find some real bargains there!

Personally, we prefer Malaga to Marbella. The city centre has lots of history in the buildings. There are plenty of bars and restaurants to visit as well as museums, etc. Malaga is a city with so much history and the people are incredibly friendly. If you in Malaga around Christmas, get to the main street and see the lights switched on every out... they are usually stunning!

Entertainment & Activities

This is amazing for children and adults alike (it's a bit like Go Ape). There are 5 courses in total with the smallest being Course 1. You will fitted with a secure harness, given instructions on what to do and then left alone to traverse the walkways, rope ladders, climbing frames, etc. The whole place is built up in the trees.  Course 3 and up start to get higher and more difficult. Course 5 is not for the faint hearted! Definitely a great adventure for the kids and adults alike!!Guaranteed to tire the kids out.

Shopping

This is a great shopping mall. There are lots of shops (some high end and some high street) in here and a lovely food court on the 1st Floor. The food court has lots of really nice restaurants. One of our favourite restaurants here is Cantina Mariachi.
