Andalucia
Although famous for its rich Moorish history, Andalucia is also quintessentially Spanish – a land of tapas, sherry, flamenco and dancing horses, of beautifully bronzed beaches and huddled white villages. It’s also the country's sunniest region, opening it up for travel at almost any time of year.
Malaga has shed its image as merely the gateway to the Costa del Sol. Revitalised with a sleek port, a dynamic culinary scene and a flourishing arts landscape, it is fast becoming one of Spain’s cultural gems. From the celebrated Museu Picasso, honouring Malaga’s most famous son, to the cobbled old quarter, Roman amphitheatre and the Moorish fortresses of the Alcazaba and Gibralfaro, the city brims with history and character.
Along the coast, Marbella has exuded glamour since Prince Alfonso de Hohenlohe-Langenburg founded the Marbella Club Hotel in 1954, attracting aristocrats and A-listers alike. Today, its designer boutiques, celebrity-backed restaurants and luxury hotels define the Golden Mile, which stretches from Marbella to Puerto Banus, where superyachts gleam in a sun-soaked harbour. A short hop from here is Estepona, whose revamped old town is one of the most beautiful in Andalucia.
