Costa del Sol Holidays - Spain
This is the storybook Spain, full of flamenco, bullfights and Carmen. It's a land of glittering light and white villages, softened by the dark greens and yellows of the rolling sierras. Inland you'll find perfect walking country, through pine and cork forests past tinkly streams or high in the snow-topped Alpujarras. The coast remains the most fashionable stretch of the Costas. We've chosen the best hotels in the elegant resort of Marbella, famed for its sophisticated shopping and nightlife and Puerto Banus, the best place for celebrity- spotting outside Cannes.
