Torremolinos is a long-standing favourite on Spain's Costa del Sol, the sort of resort British holidaymakers have trusted for generations. Wide beaches, dependable sunshine and a busy, cheerful seafront give it broad appeal for families, couples and groups.

It blends a traditional Spanish town with a full-on holiday resort, so there is plenty of choice in how you spend your days.

Where to stay in Torremolinos

Sol Don Pablo is a four-star beachfront hotel complex in Torremolinos, well placed for the sand and the seafront. Hotel Apartments Bajondillo is a four-star apartment-style hotel set directly on the beachfront on the Costa del Sol, handy for families who like a bit of self-catering flexibility.

Getting there and when to go

Torremolinos is one of the easiest Spanish resorts to reach, just a short transfer from Malaga airport, which is well connected to the UK. The Costa del Sol earns its name with a long, sunny season, hot in summer and pleasantly warm in spring and autumn.

Beaches and resorts

The resort has long stretches of sand backed by a lively promenade lined with bars and restaurants. The beaches shelve gently and offer sunbeds and watersports, so they work for both relaxed days and more active ones.

Food and things to do

Eating out ranges from beachside seafood and Spanish classics to familiar holiday menus. Beyond the beach there are shops, a busy nightlife and easy day trips along the Costa del Sol, giving you variety without much effort.

Who it suits

Torremolinos suits families after value and easy beach days, couples wanting sunshine and a sociable feel, and groups looking for nightlife. It is busy and lively rather than secluded, which is much of its charm.
