Front and rear patios extend around the side of the house. Sun loungers and outside dining furniture are on-site. Guests can use the village pool facility free of charge, which is a 5 mins stroll or a 1 minute drive and comprises both a large pool and an excellent toddler pool and a restaurant/bar.
Coast/Beach
The nearest beach is approx 7km from the house, 5 mins drive. There are many better beaches along the Marbella coast to chose from, the closest (5-10 mins) being Guadalmina Beach, Linda Vista Playa and San Pedro Beach with 1km promenade. All have water sports, restaurants, sun beds and Guadalmina has 2 beach clubs. Further east there are more superb beaches, my favorite being Marbella Town after an early morning shopping spree and lunch or tapas in one of the many fine seafront establishments.

Travel
Benahavis is almost equidistant to Malaga and Gibraltar. Malaga to the village is approx 40 mins 47km. Gib is 40km but not an Easyjet destination. Monarch fly there but in my experience are always more expensive. Unless you are happy to remain in the village or use taxis, a car is essential to enjoy all that the 'California of Europe' has to offer.
Distances
Marbella 20km, Puerto Banus 13km, Estapona 22km, Ronda 55km.
Further details
A petrol station/mini market is located at the junction of the coast road and the Benahavis rd. Supermarkets can be found just a few km from the Benahavis turn off heading West to Gib. Banks can be found in the village. The country side surrounding the village affords superb walks, mountain biking and quad biking. Details of water parks, boat trips, safari parks, horse riding, dolphins etc can be found in the house.
