Groupon's Guide To Malaga
Resting in Benidorm's tranquil La Cala area, overlooking Costa Blanca, the four star Gran Hotel Bali offers holidaymakers a breath of fresh air, a short stroll from Poniente Beach. Elsewhere, in Costa del Sol's Torremolinos resort town, a 20-minute drive from the centre of Malaga, the Gran Hotel Blue Sea Cervantes is a four star establishment fit for exploring the southern coast of Spain.
• In Benidorm, Gran Hotel Bali, one of the tallest hotels in Spain, with 52 floors boasting views over the city, allures visitors with spacious rooms decorated in neutral tones.
• Gran Hotel Blue Sea Cervantes in Torremolinos beckons with an array of spacious rooms fitted with air conditioning, satellite TVs and soundproof floor-to-ceiling windows, some boasting sea views.
• At the Gran Hotel Bali, two restaurants provide hearty buffet meals with show cooking, while a poolside and a disco bar provide entertainment programmes, along with a choice of refreshments.
• Each hotel offers a range of leisure facilities such as a sauna, gym or hot tub, with an extensive range of massages or treatments available for purchase.
Set in eastern Spain, with over 200 kilometres of Mediterranean coastline, Costa Blanca is renowned for its tourism opportunities, golf courses and stretches of white sandy beaches that give its name.
Alicante is the second most mountainous province in Spain, boasting archaeological sites, secluded valleys, ravines and a wealth of beaches including Levante and Poniente. In Benidorm, travellers may discover a part of Spanish culture in the Old Town area boasting cobbled streets and old pieces of architecture, or savour local dishes at one of the many restaurants on the Tapas Alley. In the coastal resort of Javea, nightlife opportunities abound in the Arenal and port area, where night owls may while away the time, while adrenaline rushers may enjoy climbing or hiking at the Montgo Natural Park, ranked 2 out of 15 attractions in Javea on Tripadvisor.
With a twisted mixture of hills, wild parks and natural reservations on Costa del Sol, Malaga allures tourists to an exotic resort defined by sandy beaches and the mountainous landscapes of Montes de Malaga.
The historic city of Malaga is a symbol of artistic and cultural heritage, where travellers may admire imposing examples of architecture that still guard the city streets. Tourists may witness the grand diversity of cultures and civilisations that have shaped the face of the city over the years, ranging from the 11th century medieval fortress of Alacazaba to Renaissance legacies such as the Church of Santiago and Santa Maria la Mayor.
Man-made wonders intermingle with nature’s art works, brushing up the general setting with tropical beaches and natural parks that spread upon the region, offering a multitude of itineraries to follow. Dazzling in the hot sun of the Artola beach, hiking in the deep pine forests of Pinar del Hacho or strolling through the iconic suburban parks of Archidona, are just a few things that can be marked down on a holiday to Malaga.
