Just as Mijas village is serenity, tradition and culture, so Mijas Costa parallels that magic combination of sun, sand and water sports. Mijas Costa’s La Cala beaches are Blue Flagged and considered the safest beaches in the provence: Sailing, canoeing, jet skiing and water skiing can be found daily. Be sure to check out the Chiringuito (beach restaurant) charm here too, where you can sample a variety of Spanish seafood eaten with the favourite holiday drink, tinto de verano – ordinary red wine topped up with carbonated water, either regular or lemon-flavoured.

Mijas covers two major ubanisations… Sitio de Calahonda and Riviera del Sol: The former is informally known as the English village in Spain and the place to come for karaoke, second hand shops, British doctors and dentists, Indian restaurants, imported foods and, naturally enough, a plentiful choice of pubs.  The Riviera del Sol attracts many European folk into its large commercial centre with bars and grocery store and restaurants scattered around. Mijas Costa has lots of pretty coves and beaches, lovely Mijas Villas styled with Spanish influence to ensure the area stays picturesque.

Mijas Costa also boasts some of the coast’s more famous golf courses including La Cala Resort. Mijas’ neighbouring golf hotspot, it is the largest golf complex in Spain with 3 full courses: Campo América, Campo Asia and Campo Europa. This beautiful 1,000-acre complex is only a short distance from the Sierra de Mijas Natural Park, and includes property with apartments, homes, villas and a luxury hotel.

This has helped to make the area a first choice for many wishing to retire away from the harsher climate of Northern Europe. Medical care is first class – the new Costa del Sol Hospital is no more than 15 minutes in the direction of Marbella. English, German and French daily newspapers are in the newsagents each morning before 9am.

We have an abundance of good quality sports and recreation facilities both in and around La Cala de Mijas. The tennis club “Club del Sol” welcomes all comers as does the Lawn bowls centre at Miraflores. There are gymnasiums, dive centres and virtually every outdoor activity within minutes of the village with competition standard Golf Courses scattered all around the perimeter of Mijas.

Mijas as a holiday base is perfect throughout the whole year.  The climate is such that you will be able to enjoy Mijas Villas spanish styling of seamless indoor / outdoor lifestyles which has made the Costa del Sol so popular for so many years. Not far away are the towns of Marbella, Fuengirola, Puerto Banus and Torremolinos for getting out and about.  The kids have lots to do, we are minutes from Tivoli World, the Fuengirola Zoo, Sea Life and then of course the wonderful beaches and splash parks

Malaga Airport is nearby and makes renting or buying Mijas Villas a smart option for a well deserved rest with lots to keep you amused.
