Sightseeing

The old town of Marbella is lovely. If going to Marbella for the day it is always fun to pay a visit to Puerta Banus (just past Marbella) to see the expensive yachts in the port and count the amount of Ferraris doted about.

The Alhambra is an amazing Arabic palace on the edge of Granada and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A must visit for those exploring Andalusia. Make sure you buy your tickets online and in advance as they only let in a certain amount of people a day.

Probably the most famous seafood restaurant on the coast. Slightly more expensive than other seafood places, but well worth it for the quality of the food.

Entertainment & Activities

A great walk from the apartment is stroll up the main road (Calle Carlota Alessandri) towards the center of Torremolinos. Then take the winding Calle San Miguel down to the waterfront and walk back to the apartment complex along the beach. Make sure you stop for a couple of tapas on the way :)
