Full review

The first visit to this area was last september 2003. Both my husband and myself fell in love with the area. Although it is not a holiday for everyone. It will be a up and coming area of malaga in the future.

We bought a 2 bed apartment in april 2004 on the urbanization torrox park for 117,000 euro as we were impressed by the area and the quality of the building work that was being undertaken on the site.

The site itself has a main pizza eating place which is great value for money and the t-bone steak is a must for meat eaters. There are several small shops which sell everything from food to beach wear.

On the site is also a camping area for tents, caravans, and log cabins. This has excellent facilities which include a clubhouse serving food and drinks, Internet connection, sky tv, pool table and they also serve sunday lunch and have theme nights.

The urbanization part includes apartments, bungalows, small 3 bed houses which have communal swimming pools and tennis court facilities.

There is also a laundry shop, hairdressers and small tappas bar which is run by a local family.

The urbanization is close to Torrox costa which has a fantastic beach front with plenty of eating places, although there is only 1 nightclub.

The hong kong 2 is a very cheap place to eat and serves lovely food.

Our next plan is to buy a second property where the new golf course and marina is being built. The potential for this area is going to be great and the mayor of the area is keen to keep it as peaceful and quite as possible, therefore this is not going to be another blackpool abroad. This is not a destination for the very young and lively.
