Around

Originally developed in the 1970s, the prestigious residential neighborhood of El Paraiso along the Costa del Sol was designed as a resort destination centered the Andalusian seaside. Its quiet, tree-lined streets, lovely villas and proximity to the sea make it a popular yet private destination.

A ten minute drive will put you at the exclusive Puerto Banus, with its world-class dining, shopping and pricey yachts bobbing in the harbor, with Marbella and it's famed nightlife twenty minutes east and Malaga under an hour further.

Famed for its spectacular long white beaches, high sand dunes and coastal surf spots, nearby Tarifa is also home to an ancient Moorish castle, narrow streets and quaint “chiringuitos,” with a laid back ambience. As the gateway to North Africa, the local ferry from Tarifa can take you to the exotic town of Tangiers in under an hour.

The nearby mountaintop town of Ronda (with its landmark 18th-century Plaza de Toros) sits above the dramatic El Tajo gorge which separates the 15th-century parts of the town from the Moorish old town. Connected by the impressive Puente Nuevo, the town's placement, massive stone bridge spanning the gorge, and main stop on the Pueblos Blancos route makes this area a must see.
