About Benalmádena

Benalmádena is in fact three places: Benalmádena Pueblo, the historic white village in the hills; Benalmádena Costa with the Puerto Marina and the seafront; and Arroyo de la Miel, the town's commercial heart and Glaser's home base. The municipality stretches from the coast up into the Sierra de Mijas. Carvajal, on the western side, is a quiet beachfront barrio with a strong British and Dutch resident community. Torremuelle and Reserva del Higuerón offer hillside developments with strong views. The municipality has a working VUT licensing process; we check community-of-owners vote history before any viewing on a building you're seriously considering.

Other places to look at.

Coastal city

Torremolinos

Reinventing itself one barrio at a time. La Carihuela leads the gentrification, Playamar holds the high-density middle.

Coastal city

Fuengirola

The Costa del Sol's most year-round town. Empty-pavements is rare here — even January has weight.

Coastal city

Málaga

A real working Spanish city with a working harbour, working museums and a long history. Not a beach resort.
