About the area

Why people love Benalmádena

Benalmádena has three faces: Benalmádena Costa by the sea with the famous Puerto Marina, Arroyo de la Miel – a lively town with shops, restaurants and a train station – and Benalmádena Pueblo, a quiet white village on the hillside. Together they offer a lot of variety only 15 minutes from Málaga airport.

Many homes lie on the hillside and have wide views over the sea. Prices are moderate compared to the western coast, and the short distance to the airport and Málaga makes Benalmádena popular for both holiday homes and year-round living.

Who is it for?

  • Frequent travellers – the airport is about 15 minutes away
  • Sea views at moderate prices – many hillside homes
  • Families – parks, attractions and the train to Málaga
  • Boat lovers – the award-winning Puerto Marina
