La Cala

At the heart of the Costa del Sol on Mijas Costa, only a short distance from Marbella and Fuengirola, you will love the charm of this old fishing pueblo. Unspoiled by mass tourism with golden sandy beaches and every sporting activity you can bring to mind - fall in love with La Cala! "La Cala" as this charming village is affectionately known to local residents, lies on the Costa del Sol in Spain approximately 25 minutes drive west from Malaga International Airport. The long beaches are well cared for, clean and soft golden sand. Whilst La Cala has maintained a level of the real Spain it has also taken on, in a small way, something of an international flavour. You will find estate agents here that are very professional and able to look after you in many different languages and banks, doctors, lawyers, dentists equal to those in the UK or any part of Europe. This has helped to make the area a first choice for many wishing to retire away from the harsher climate of Northern Europe. Medical care is first class - the new Costa del Sol Hospital is no more than 15 minutes in the direction of Marbella. English, German and French daily newspapers are in the newsagents each morning before 9am. 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. Of course special mention should be given to our competition standard golf courses at La Cala and Mijas Golf, Santana Golf and El Chaparral - these courses are available to non members, tuition is available and equipment can be hired. Horse riding in the hills behind La Cala is a must if you enjoy this activity but if your interest in horses is strictly as a spectator, then the Hippodrome may well be for you. Recently built, the "Hipodromo del Costa del Sol" is just on the outskirts of La Cala and makes for a great family night out. You are sure to enjoy the wide range of good quality restaurants available right here in the village or scattered in every direction close by.

Ranging from the most simple to the most expensive they include Italian, Indian, Chinese, Thai, French, plus of course a wide choice of Spanish restaurants anxious to display their culinary talents. Restaurant prices are very low in this part of Spain when compared with the cities of Northern Europe but the standard is very high. La Cala as a holiday base is perfect throughout the whole year. Our climate is such that you will be able to enjoy the seamless indoor / outdoor lifestyle which has made the Costs del Sol so popular for so many years. Within easy striking distance of La Cala de Mijas are all of the internationally famous names such as Puerto Banus, Marbella and Fuengirola. For the kids there is lots to do, we are minutes from Tivoli World, the Fuengirola Zoo, Sea Life and then of course the wonderful beaches and splash parks - for the "big kids" Marbella Casino, The Hipodromo and so much more.
