Briefly, we purchased and used the apartment as often as we could - especially my wife and her friends!! Interspersed with this, we rented it out and we used this website to assist with this. Quite frankly, bookings became so fluent that I didn’t update the site as often as I should. We have had bookings and re-bookings and well, in the end, this site just served to provide a bit of extra information for our freinds/recomm endations who had access to the internet. In saying that, do please read what the site says because it’s an excellent description of what you will be purchasing, both in the property and the locality

Cabopino is situated on the coast, halfway between Fuengirola and Marbella. The visitor to this part of the Costa del Sol is certainly spoiled for choice when it comes to things to do and places to go. Miles of sandy beaches with water sports, fishing and sight-seeing, boat trips, excursions to family attractions such as Aquaparks, Theme Parks, Wildlife Parks, cable car rides, and beautifully landscaped 18 hole golf courses, these are just a sample of what's on offer.

The sandy beach and dunes can be reached via the road at the side of the apartment block.

Beach bars with barbecue areas where just caught fish are cooked are a speciality at Puerto Cabopino. A good range of specialised restaurants are to be found, and there is also a Plaza with a variety of bars, including an Irish bar, the Shebeen. Boat trips along the coast, including visiting the dolphins, and sea fishing are also on offer.

In the immediate area, the Plaza Santa Monica has a friendly mini-market which stocks fresh meats and cheeses, also wine, beer and spirits, and is open Monday to Saturday, 9.30am to 2pm, and 4.30pm to 8pm. In the Plaza there is also a bar, a cafe and an excellent outdoor barbeque restaurant. During the Summer traditional Spanish Flamenco dancing is performed three evenings every week. There is also a mini crazy golf course, specialist Golf Shop and the excellent 18 hole La Siesta and Cabopino Golf Courses are nearby.

Year round golf at some of the 30 landscaped 18 hole courses on the Costa del Sol is a major attraction. In the vicinity you have the 9-hole course adjoining the Hotel Artola which is ideal for practising and for beginners. Near by are the Las Chapas and Cabopino 18 hole courses, and for the younger golfers, mini crazy golf opposite.

Families with children are well catered for on the Costa del Sol. Besides the nearby sandy beach, there are Aquaparks in Fuengirola (10 mins drive) and Malaga (20 mins drive). An excellent Zoo is also to be found at Fuengirola.
