Villas At Casares Are A Fantastic And Relaxing Holiday Hot Spot

Posted in Travel

One of my favourite spots for a foreign holiday is the wonderful relaxing Casares Del Sol apartments situated on the Costa Del Sol, in sunny Spain. Being only 25 minutes from Gibraltar International Airport makes the resort absolutely idyllic for short breaks as well as longer holidays. You can, should you wishto relax further, manage without hiring a car since there is a good, reliable, local taxi service and a bus stop not too far away at the bottom of the coastal road. Casares Del Sol is also easily reached from Malaga Airport, 60 minutes drive away via either the coastal or the faster toll road. We frequently use both airports when going on holiday based on the cheapest flights we can find on the internet at the time of booking.

Casares Del Sol is based around small communities of apartments each having its own unique featureson offer. Each community is run by a small community committee. At the centre of each community are communal gardens. Taking centre stage of each community is a wonderful swimming pool complete with bed chairs and umbrellas. Our own block has a large main pool as well as having the additional benefit of a splash pool for the little onesto cool off in. The pools are surrounded with palm trees and other tropical trees. The owners have considered further potential developments for holidaymakers and planned for our community for 2009 is a table tennis table, a small putting green, and possibly a boule court!

Casares Del Sol has a great location tucked away from the main coastal road. Casares Del Sol is but 1 minute drive from the Mediterranean Sea at the bottom of the hill. If you wish to walk to the beach it is a no more than a mere 12-15 minute stroll. There is a taxi rank at the bottom operational from about 10am until midnight if you don’t fancy walking back uphill.

The majority of villas at Casares have either sea, mountain or golf course views, or indeed a combination of views. At the beach you will find that there aretwo beach bars, the ‘Chiringuito Beach Bar’ right on the beach and a little further up the beach towards Marbella, ‘La Perla’ The Chiringuito is a traditional beach bar frequented by locals as well as holidaymakers, whilst the new ‘La Perla’ has a more cosmopolitan style complete with sails to provide shade, coconut matting and decking. Both serve excellent fresh local cuisine. For a real treat have traditional paellasat on the beach!

Casaes Del Sol is situated in a greenbelt of golf courses thus ensuring that you are not spending your holiday surrounded by buildings. Right next door is the new mecca for golfers Finca Cortesin, which replaces from 2009 Valderrama Golf Course for the Volvo Masters Golf Tournament. Right across the road to the apartments is Casares Golf. Casares Golf is a 9 hole par 3 and 4 course with a fantastic golf club. It is open to non members who just wish to use its excellent bar and restaurant facilities with fantastic views over the course to the Meditterrean.

There are a good selection of Spanish bars and restaurants on the nearby beaches of Sabilinas, 5minutes by car. Why not visit Marbella, Puerto Banus or Gibraltar for the dayif you want to venture slightly further afield? All are easily reached.

So if you would like a nice relaxing holidayin the sun , either as a couple or as a family stay at Casares Del Sol on the Costa Del Sol!
