Car Hire
You will need a car as there are no supermarkets on site. The nearest supermarket is approx a mile away.
We have used the following car hire companies and have been happy with all of them. You can collect your car at Malaga Airport.
Cargest

We have used this company a couple of times; reliable and a good price.

Such a delightful place and the lamb is outstanding. You can lunch over 2 or 3 hours and it seems like 2 or 3 minutes. Very relaxing, not formal but a bit above casual dining!

Perfect place for food, view, cost and family. Look out one side and you can see all the way up the mountain, then from the other side, across the landscape to the sea and if you're lucky, Africa.
The food is local, typically Spanish and fabulous. Great value for money.

My favourite tapas bar of all time. Tapas to a different level. I could literally choose every dish, it's so hard to recommend one over another. The staff are also lovely. Very upmarket but so very laid back.

Again hard to choose a favourite. I'm not as keen on flavours based on things like Snickers but my friends adore them. For me a chocolate ! They also do gluten free cones.
