Coast/Beach
Puerto Banus is located just 6km west of Marbella, and less than 1km in front of Aldea Blanca. This is the place to be. Admire the fabulous Marina with its luxury yachts abundance of super cars and designer boutiques. Wine and dine in one of the many open air restaurants or bars. The setting is picture perfect, with its impressive mountain backdrop and ocean views. Nightlife buzzes at Puerto Banus with your choice of alfresco bars, piano clubs and discos.

Golf
3 major golf courses, Las Brisas, Los Naranjos and Aloha are within 3km of the apartment and the world famous Valderrama Ryder cup course about 45km. Aldea Blanca is situated in the area known as Golf Valley with world class courses designed by the likes of Robert Trent Jones and Seve Ballesteros. The course at La Zagaleta Country Club, designed by Seve Ballesteros, is one of the most exclusive courses on the coast. Golf is far more popular with visiting tourists than the Spanish. A recent study estimated that a staggering 80% of golfing tourists had visited the Costa to play. Many golf courses have club tournaments running throughout the year, so phone to check first and booking in advance is advised. Golf has played a great part in turning the Costa del Sol from a summer holiday destination to a year round resort with many northern Europeans escaping bleak winters to come to the Costa's mild winter climate to play golf.

Skiing
Many people only associate Spain with sand and sun and are surprised to find that Spain also offers a wide range of winter sports. Spain's number one location for winter sports, the Sierra Nevada is located just two hours away from Aldea Blanca. It isn't necessary to bring ski gear as it can be hired by the day or half day at the resort. Ski passes can be bought on the day at the bottom of the slopes. Located above Granada, it has the best snow and the longest season in the country. One can look forward to five months of snow. Sierra Nevada has 61km of ski slopes with 45 pistes and 6 off-piste routes. There are 2 cable cars, 12 chair lifts and 5 ski lifts. The ski resort is open from 9am - 5pm although you can ski at night at weekends and bank holidays. Night skiing was introduced in 1994 with lighting along the El Rio slope (3km/545 vertical drop).

Travel
Malaga airport (Distances from Google Earth): 55km. Railway Fuengirola 35km. Ferry Gibrlatar 60km.

Further details
Aldea Blanca's surroundings have so much to offer, Benhavis a typical white village at the foothills of the mountains just 20 mins away is a must for a typical Spanish evening in an unspoilt village with winding streets and central square great for outside dining, local dishes and flamenco dancing. Marbella old town, with its cool square under the shade of orange trees, its labyrinth of boutique lined streets not suitable for cars, endless choice of upmarket restaurants and bars is a must and is a 10 minute taxi or bus ride away. La Manquita, a stunning cathedral, The Alcazaba, a 15th Century Moorish fort and the Picasso museum can all be found in Malaga which is a 45 min ride by Bus, taxi or hire car. The Alhambra Palace in Grenada, the Jewel of the region is a 2hr drive and is highly recommended. A series of palaces and gardens built under the Nazari Dynasty in the 14th C stand at the foot of Spain's highest mountain range, the Sierra Nevada, and overlooks the city below and the fertile plain of Granada. Seville is the heart of Andalucian culture, it is a long drive of about 2½ hours from the apartment but worth it if you have the time. It is the setting for the well loved opera Carmen and also the home of the mythical Don Juan. The centre is crammed with sights, but the obvious starting point is the awesome 15th century cathedral. It is the largest in volume in the world. Across the square is the fabulous Alcázar built in the 14th century visit the whitewashed streets of Santa Cruz, crammed with churches, melancholic guitarists and old tapas bars.
