The closest to the airport, and the old fishing quarter is still there.
Torremolinos is ten minutes from the airport by train, which makes it the easiest arrival on the coast. Most people know the reputation; fewer know La Carihuela, the old fishing quarter at the southern end, where the seafront is low-rise and the restaurants have been in the same families for decades.
We do not currently manage a licensed holiday let in Torremolinos. The apartment we have here is let on a temporary contract (alquiler de temporada) for longer stays — a work posting, a relocation, a term at school. If you want a holiday week, the honest answer is to stay in Benalmádena or Fuengirola and drive in.
Three stops from the airport on the Cercanías C1, around ten minutes — the easiest arrival anywhere on this coast.
