It is only 10 minutes away from Marbella old town so if you are looking for a more tranquile and budget friendly this area is perfect for you.

Mijas Costa (Sitio de Calahonda)

It has a variety of places in Mijas Costa, its center, Mijas Old Town, known for its Taxi Donkeys and traditional Spanish town is full of local markets like bakeries, pottery stores, and more. Moving away from the Mijas Old Town, its beautiful beach lies in between Caladahonda and the Cala de Mijas connected through a boardwalk which is perfect for going running or for a long walk along the beach. In addition, it is also a very calm area with affordable housing. It’s been a one of my favorite areas to stay over the years.
