Location of holiday rental in Los Marines near Periana, Malaga Province, Andalucia

Location description

Not many of the permanent inhabitants speak English. They are the friendliest and most welcoming people it is possible to meet. They love to show strangers, especially children, their goats, sheep and horses, and most animals roam fairly freely.

Los Marines has no shop or bar, but in the small nearby town Periana, about 4km away, there is a good selection of bars, several supermarkets and many small shops, which sell just about everything. Much of the produce is locally grown, and has a distinctive flavour. Periana also has a pharmacist and a doctor's surgery: one of the doctors speaks good English.

Ventas ambulantes ( mobile shops) visit the village every day. Except Sundays, and sell all forms of provisions and household requirements.

The panoramic views are just so beautiful and at times breath taking.

Other activities

Table tennis, badminton, boules, swimming, board games, puzzles, reading.

Local events

Height of the summer there are many fairs, fireworks, late night bars, dancing. During the rest of the year there are many other festivals that take place.

Tourist attractions

The Costa del Sol stretches from Gibraltar in the West to beyond the beaches of Nerja in the east. There are many charming coastal areas. The mountains and hills are wild and staggeringly beautiful. In the foothills nestles the hamlet of Los Marines and the charming town of Periana

Periana
Situated at 547 meters above sea level, there are excellent views from the town down towards Lake Vinuela and the sea beyond, best seen from the viewing point near the new town hall. Dominating the scenery around Periana is Mount Maroma. At some 2080 meters (6,800 feet) it is the largest mountain in Malaga province.

A particularly pretty spot is the place where the river Guaro is begins. Another place to be visited is the spa at Ba�os de Vilo, built in 1823 and later abandoned. The sulphurous waters of the spa, which is currently being renovated prior to reopening, are apparently very beneficial. Also excellent are the two important examples of local agriculture and of Periana�s economy, peaches and olive oil. The fame of these two products has travelled far beyond regional confines.

The lower hillsides are cultivated with olive, almond, citrus, pomegranate, and carob trees. Mimosa grows wild flowering in the winter and scenting the air with its sweet blooms.

There are many typical Spanish coffee/tapas bars and menu of the day is offered in most.

You will find a doctor, physiotherapist and a pharmacist. Super-markets, tobacconist, bakers, butchers and clothes shops. A post office is also present. Only open until 11:00 a.m. They also have a weekly market.

Los Marines
Los Marines is a typical Spanish hamlet and is only an hour or two away from some of Spain's greatest and most awe-inspiring treasures; the rocky fortress town of Ronda, and the Moorish splendors of Granada, Seville and C�rdoba. Camaris, the town on a hill, which can be seen from the villa to the right if looking at the lake.

The locals are really friendly they love to stop and chat. You will often hear the bells from the goats being shepherded across the land near the villa.

Nerja
Nerja is on the coast, where the weather, the year round, has attracted sun-lovers since Phoenician, Roman and Carthaginian times. It is still one of the most attractive resorts with a cheerful family atmosphere.

The Balcon de Europa is a palm-fringed promontory that reaches out over the sea looking towards Africa, providing a vantage point from which to survey the coastline, not to mention the local population promenading each evening for el Paseo. The streets meander through Nerja's pedestrian old town bustling cheerfully with caf�s, restaurants, shops and lively bars.

Lazy days can be enjoyed on long sandy beaches lying at the foot of dramatic rocky cliffs and bordered by bars and restaurants or on more secluded sandy coves. Playa Burriana, just outside the town centre is the largest and most popular beach, with its rocky cliffs falling abruptly down to the sand.

The astounding prehistoric caves the Cuevas de Nerja near Maro, with their Neolithic art and more grizzly recent remains, are well worth visiting. For those interested in music and dance, the vibrant annual fiesta takes place in early October. Flamenco is sometimes performed in the bars in Nerja and Frigiliana has its own award winning troupe.

Inland from Nerja, lie Mountains with impressive scenic roads snaking past whitewashed villages perched precariously on Mediterranean hillsides. Here some sensational national parks and a little touched environment can be found.

Frigiliana
Frigiliana is rightly proud of its reputation as one of the most beautiful white hill villages of Andalucia just 4 miles inland from Nerja and its beaches. The area is surrounded by olive tree and grape vine covered slopes, and by weathered boulders and plunging ravines, which reveal glimpses of the shimmering sea. Nearby, the white-washed hamlets, retaining much of their historic charm, provide a soothing contrast to the pressure of urban living. Frigiliana is nonetheless well-endowed with small shops, bars and rustic restaurants. Where they have bowed to the pressure to expand, it has been achieved with unusual sensitivity.

Torre-del-mar
Only 30 minutes away, Torre del Mar is today one of the most famous tourist resorts in the Costa del Sol.

Its four km. of golden sand offer all the necessary ingredients to spend some unforgettable days: hotels, restaurants, bars at the beach, discos, sport boats for rent, sport-fishing port with a daily auction of fresh fish; or, in case you don't fancy the sea, you can enjoy yourself at the aquatic park "Aqua Velis ". Within its rich gastronomy, it offers us dishes like the Holy Week ajo-blanco, the sopas cachorre�as, tortas, fried fish baked sardines, etc.

Located in the eastern part of the Coast, the town is the beach resort of V�lez-M�laga, capital of the Axarquia region. One of the resort's most pleasant features is the extended esplanade which follows the coast to reach the Marina of Caleta de V�lez which has over 200 berths.

Torre del Mar�s climate is mild all year round, with an average of 23 �C in winter and 32 �C in the summer months.
