Mijas Villa Secret

by Talia on March 10th, 2010

Just as Mijas village is serenity, tradition and culture, so Mijas Costa parallels that magic combination of sun, sand and water sports. The La Cala beaches of Mijas Costa have been awarded the “Blue Flag” as among the best in the province, and are geared to provide action: Parasailing, skiing and sailing are regular features on the water. The restaurants along the shore serve excellent Spanish food and many serve up Tinto de Verano – a mix of red wine and fizzy water.

The Sitio de Calahonda and Riviera del Sol are both major developments consdiered part of the Mijas area. The former is informally known as the English village in Spain and the place to come for karaoke, second hand shops, British doctors and dentists, Indian restaurants, imported foods and, naturally enough, a plentiful choice of pubs.  The Riviera del Sol attracts many European folk into its large commercial centre with bars and grocery store and restaurants scattered around. Mijas Costa has lots of pretty coves and beaches, lovely Mijas Villas styled with Spanish influence to ensure the area stays picturesque.

Mijas Costa also boasts some of the coast’s more famous golf courses including La Cala Resort. Mijas’ neighbouring golf hotspot, it is the largest golf complex in Spain with 3 full courses: Campo América, Campo Asia and Campo Europa. This beautiful 1,000-acre complex is only a short distance from the Sierra de Mijas Natural Park, and includes property with apartments, homes, villas and a luxury hotel.

All of these considerations has ensured that Mijas attracts Europeans keen to find Spanish style with European amenities without the harsher climate of Northern Europe. The new hostpital is only 15 minutes away and of a hig standard and even newspapers can be found in the shops before 9am featuring French, German and English languages!

We have an abundance of good quality sports and recreation facilities both in and around La Cala de Mijas. The tennis club “Club del Sol” welcomes all comers as does the Lawn bowls centre at Miraflores. There are gymnasiums, dive centres and virtually every outdoor activity within minutes of the village with competition standard Golf Courses scattered all around the perimeter of Mijas.

Mijas is a location travelled to during the whole year.  The climate is such that you will be able to enjoy Mijas Villas spanish styling of seamless indoor / outdoor lifestyles which has made the Costa del Sol so popular for so many years. Travelling around is easy to do and the famous towns of Marbella, Torremolinos and Pureto Banus are nearby.  The kids have lots to do, we are minutes from Tivoli World, the Fuengirola Zoo, Sea Life and then of course the wonderful beaches and splash parks

With Mijas being located relatively close to Malaga Airport, renting or buying villas in Mijas makes sense as it is convenient to travel here from many other area destinations and is well worth the trip.
