Elviria Beach
The beach at Elviria is a 10-minute walk from the apartment. It is known as Golden Beach because of its fine golden sand, and it is regarded as one of the best beaches on the Costa del Sol. You can walk along the beach all the way to Marbella (west) or Puerto Cabopino (east).
Golf
The Costa del Sol is renowned for its wide selection of golf coures and there are many excellent courses within a few minutes drive of the apartment, including Mijas, La Cala, Santa Maria and Rio Real. If you need a tougher test, the world-famous courses of Sotogrande and Valderrama are 30 and 45 minutes drive away respectively.
Directions from Malaga airport
On leaving Malaga airport, follow the signs for Marbella and Cadiz. Before reaching Torremolinos, take the Benalmadena exit (big blue exit sign) and follow the highway towards Marbella/Algeciras/Cadiz. After driving approximately 15 minutes, the road splits in two. Take the toll-free coastal road, the N340. Follow signs for Marbella and continue along the N340 for approximately 15 minutes. Look out for the exit marked Elviria (you will know it is approaching once you see the exits for Calahonda, Cabopino, and finally Las Chapas).
Exit from the N340 at the sign marked "Elviria Cambio de Sentido" and continue along the exit road for about 200m, passing a row of shops on your right. This is the Pino Golf commercial centre, and the apartment building is right behind it. Take the first right turn, and approximately 50m from the corner you will see the entrance to the underground car park (see the photo and map).
