Just back from a February break in this really lovely, well equipped apartment. It is close to the main road, no noise issue and buses which we needed to use as it is not close to many bars or restaurants.
The nearby supermarket is up 97 steps, or a steep hill the long way round, so really quite an issue for people with mobility issues, or parents with prams.
We used Bolt taxis frequently, which were a great price - 6 euros to Benalmedina marina, 9 euros to Benalmedina train station, from where you can visit Fuengirola, or Malaga or back to the airport.
Unfortunately if you like to sleep later than 0645 this apartment would not be for you, as the family upstairs are terribly noisy, especially their young child continuously stomping across the floor. We also had a 3 year old with us, so I am well used to noise.
In conclusion a lovely apartment. I personally would be waiting a year or two until the young man upstairs has grown up a bit before visiting again.
