La Cala Hills and La Cala De Mijas form part of the area known as La Cala, which is situated in the typically Andulasian, low built-up, not-too-commercial district of Mijas, roughly in-between Marbella and Malaga coastal towns.

Sunshine averages 300 days per year, and even the winters here are pleasantly mild - which is why the area of MIjas is extremely popular with golfers, and horse-riding enthusiasts alike, during autumn and winter.

The area is lush, rich in landscape - from towering Mijas mountains, to the nearby hills & golf-courses, to the well-maintained natural beaches and sea-fronts, with magnificent ancient towns such as Ronda, Ojen and Isthan within driving distance, as well as the family friendly Theme Parks, Zoos, etc.

The neighbourhood in 3 words: Stunning, Peaceful, Friendly!

No wonder that some British, Spanish and German celebrities are known to either rent or own property in La Cala!

++PLEASE READ ON FOR GREAT LOCAL & REGIONAL INFORMATION:

For those who prefer fine quality living, with peace and beauty, rather than loud, busy cities and towns, - then La Cala is an ideal place. The views are simply spectacular, with the white-washed Andulasian town of Mijas pueblo overlooking La Cala, as well as the surrounding world-famous golf courses, such as Mijas Golf and La Cala Golf, some of which are in walking distance.

Horse-riding, and the famous Raqueta De Mijas Sports club & gym, as well as the golf courses, remind us that Mijas is both for relaxing, and for active people.

The neighbourhood is peaceful and friendly, with many locals occupying the properties, as well as friendly visitors. You will feel welcomed at the various shops, restaurants and bars, many of which are pleasingly within walking distance.

We're fortunate to have some great restaurants (Spanish, Italian, Indian, and others) within walking distance of the apartment, as well as some very friendly bars, which tend to attract families and couples alike, and avoided by noisy crowds - so peace, good company, good conversation, and good prices are usually guaranteed :)

The famous Hotel Tamisa Golf is also walking distance (or a short drive), as is the town of Las Lagunas , where - within 5 minutes - you will find big name stores such as ALDI, LIDL, AKI, WORTON, ICELAND, as well as many other convenience stores and outlets.

Within 7-10 minutes' drive is of course the famous and up and coming town of Fuengirola on the one side, with its golden sandy beaches, and beautiful, small, quaint yet modern La Cala De Mijas village on the other side, again, a short drive away, with its quieter, family and couple-friendly beaches, where it's not unusual to find the odd beach wedding taking place! :)

Famous Cabopino and Elviria beaches are around 20 minutes drive from the apartment; or of course, drive a little bit more - and enjoy the California-like boardwalks and beach promenades of the towns of San Pedro and the famous Puerto Banus!

And when you're finished - drive up into the mountains towards Isthan for some breathtaking scenery, including the famouse needle-shaped lake and the towns near it, and onto Monda, Ojen and then back to La Cala - for a spectacular, unforgettable journey that many never imagined, would exist in Spain! So La Cala, Mijas and the Costa Del Sol in general - are so much more than just the pretty beaches - go up into the mountains to discover more treasures - including the famous Sierra Nevada mountain range (2 hours from Mijas) - where you can go skiiing or enjoy snow-sports at times in the year!

Or visit El Torcal - the incredible "other planet" like landscape in the mountains... or El Chorro with its famous 3 lakes nestled in the amazing, towering mountains .......the list goes on.

In short - welcome to YOUR unexpected, unimaginably joyful adventure in Andulacia, Spain!

We are honoured and happy that you decided to join us here for your stay.

Thank You.

The mountain views from the apartment are breathtaking, the rooms well-decorated and maintained, the kitchen well-stocked and every appliance available.

Good Stay

We stayed in the flat for 57 night Feb - April 23. Flat was large, well furnished and had a large terrace with fabulous views of the mountains. Found some excellent restaurants in the close area, need a car but not far. Mijas town was well worth a visit and Cala Mijas too. Prash the owner responded to all requests promptly and when we got home he informed us that we had left our coats there! He was more than happy to work out a solution on day he had to leave the flat. We will be forever grateful.

Excellent property

We have just returned from a weeks stay at this accomodation and thought it was fantastic. The property is really well equipt throughout. It is comfortable and spacious and the surrounding area very well kept and peaceful. I would suggest having a car so you can explore the nearby towns and beaches, the parking provided is easy and very secure. There are three swimming pools on site and one right below the balcony. Even though it was July we had the pool to ourselves most of the week. The owner Prash provided great communication throughout the trip and I would have no hesitation recommending this place to anyone and would come back again. Thank you again for a great holiday.

Lovely overall

This beautiful apartment is within a safe secure complex with gorgeous surrounding grounds. There is a fabulous, large pool where we had our daily morning swim. We so enjoyed the lovely view of the hills from the spacious, private and sunny terrace. The apartment was bright and airy and for those who cook, the kitchen was well equipped with everything at your fingertips. There are some restaurants nearby but the better ones are along the beautiful beach area which is a 5-10 min drive. A car is a must. All together a great vacation spot. BN

A very nice property

A very nice spacious property with great facilities in a secure gated area. Unfortunately for our visit the balcony was lacking the sun beds which were detailed in the listing. The property balcony faces east so loses direct sunlight from 16:00 onwards. Personally we feel the balcony would benefit from more comfortable cushioned seating. Drive time to beach is 20 mins Local bars provided good quality food & service. Small supermarket is in the same parade & was open 7-days a week. A very central venue if you wish play golf, in the many surrounding clubs We rate this property 5 stars

Excellent Stay!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at a lovely apartment in La Cala, Malaga, Spain, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! Before I even booked, the host was incredibly helpful, accommodating my needs and ensuring that I had all the information required for a smooth stay. Once I arrived, their communication and check-in remained brilliant, making it easy to get local insights and recommendations for dining and attractions.The apartment itself is situated in a quiet, gated development with a 24-hour concierge that offers a very safe and peaceful retreat after a busy day. The views from the terrace of the property are simply stunning, providing a beautiful backdrop that truly enhances the experience. Additionally, the location is incredibly convenient for getting to the airport, making travel a breeze.For anyone on a business trip, or holiday or looking for a relaxing getaway, this location is perfect. It’s just a short car ride to the beach, and local shops and is conveniently located near several golf courses. Plus, it offers excellent value for money. Overall, this apartment and the host exceeded my expectations, and I look forward to returning in the future!

Relaxing and very peaceful

We have recently returned from a 10 day stay at this beautiful apartment. It was everything that we needed and hoped it would be. Communication was fantastic with the owners and they were very helpful, so thank you. The apartment was wonderful, beautiful views, spotlessly, clean and equipped with everything you need and more. The pool the apartment overlooks was closed during our stay for maintenance but this wasn’t a problem as there are two more to use. We got to know some residents who visited for their daily swims each morning. They were all so friendly and helpful. We hired a car and this was very easy to organise, the car was delivered and collected from the complex. Visiting Mijas Pueblo is a must! It’s beautiful with its traditional Spanish streets with white walls decorated with beautiful Spanish flower pots bursting with vibrant flowers. We visited here twice, once in the day time where the views were amazing and again in the evening to see it lit up, which was so pretty. If you do visit here, park in the underground car park as you can park all day and night for €1 … unbelievable, plus your car is beautiful and cool when you return! We would definitely return and explore more of this beautiful We had some delicious meals out, one of the best was at El Olivio in La Cala where the food and service was fantastic. We highly recommend this lovely apartment and we will definitely be returning.

The apartment was lovely, it was very clean, spacious and fully equipped with everything needed to enjoy and relax. The view was exceptional day and night and the pool area was lovely and never busy.

We are passionate about Spain!
We have been visiting Spain since the early 2000's and have since fallen in love with Costa Del Sol - in particular, the Malaga region, and beautiful, up and coming Mijas..... Because it offers so much diversity and in many ways, the "best of many worlds": Beautiful beaches, blue water, sunny blue skies, majestic mountains to explore, rolling hills, golf courses, and urban conveniences such as air conditioned malls, Cinemas, Theatres, superb Restaurants, Art and Culture.

So it was only a matter of time before we starting our long search, and eventual purchase of our beautiful "Secret" Spanish Getaway!

Now we take pleasure in sharing our apartment with discerning guests, seeking quality living, with a taste for the finer things in life.

Relaxation, passion, peace, harmony with nature, excitement around and warm, friendly people - all await you here.

For those who prefer fine quality living, with peace and beauty, rather than loud, busy cities and towns, - then La Cala is an ideal place. The views are simply spectacular, with the white-washed Andulasian town of Mijas pueblo overlooking La Cala, as well as the surrounding world-famous golf courses, such as Mijas Golf and La Cala Golf, some of which are in walking distance.

Horse-riding, and the famous Raqueta De Mijas Sports club & gym, as well as the golf courses, remind us that Mijas is both for relaxing, and for active people.

The neighbourhood is peaceful and friendly, with many locals occupying the properties, as well as friendly visitors. You will feel welcomed at the various shops, restaurants and bars, many of which are pleasingly within walking distance.

What makes this property unique

We're fortunate to have some great restaurants (Spanish, Italian, Indian, and others) within walking distance of the apartment, as well as some very friendly bars, which tend to attract families and couples alike, and avoided by noisy crowds - so peace, good company, good conversation, and good prices are usually guaranteed :)

Las Lagunas town is 5 minutes drive - you will find big name stores such as ALDI, LIDL, MUEBLES, ICELAND, as well as many other convenience stores and outlets.

Within 7-10 minutes' drive is of course the famous and up and coming town of Fuengirola on the one side, with its golden sandy beaches, and beautiful, small, quaint yet modern La Cala De Mijas village on the other side, again, a short drive away, with its quieter, family and couple-friendly beaches, where it's not unusual to find the odd beach wedding taking place! :)

Famous Cabopino and Elviria beaches are around 20 minutes drive from the apartment; or of course, drive a little bit more - and enjoy the California-like boardwalks and beach promenades of the towns of San Pedro and the famous Puerto Banus!

And when you're finished - drive up into the mountains towards Isthan for some breathtaking scenery, including the famouse needle-shaped lake and the towns near it, and onto Monda, Ojen and then back to La Cala - for a spectacular, unforgettable journey that many never imagined, would exist in Spain! So La Cala, Mijas and the Costa Del Sol in general - are so much more than just the pretty beaches - go up into the mountains to discover more treasures - including the famous Sierra Nevada mountain range (2 hours from Mijas) - where you can go skiiing or enjoy snow-sports at times in the year!
Or visit El Torcal - the incredible "other planet" like landscape in the mountains... or El Chorro with its famous 3 lakes nestled in the amazing, towering mountains .......the list goes on!
