Fantastic experience: Una cala casi inaccesible en La herradura..

Positive experience: Bonita playa pero en temporada alta cuesta aparcar incluso de pago

Antonio Castillo 3 years ago

Positive experience: Es una pena . Un lugar con tantos recursos. El mar . El clima y se haya convertido en un sitio tan incómodo. Ruido a todas horas de motos subiendo las cuestas a todo gas. La suciedad en el paseo marítimo. Todo lleno de coches aparcados de cualquier manera. Y los precios. No se entiende que los precios en bares y restaurantes estén más altos que en la costa de Málaga y peor calidad. Desorden en definitiva.

Positive experience: Está bien, aunque siempre se puede mejorar Los chuiringuitos a pie de playa están muy bien y todos reformados Hay una gran ausencia de verde, por lo que se deberia plantar arboles, palmeras, arbustos y flores autoctonas por calles, paseo maririmo y en general todo los claros donde se pueda. Deberían invertir mucho más en verde Julio y agosto son muy concurridos, lo que es normal, pero la falta de aparcamiento se hace tedioso

Fantastic experience: Wir machen seit vielen Jahren hier Urlaub. Schöner, relativ kleiner Ort mit sehr schöner Umgebung und tollen Möglichkeiten alle erdenklichen Arten des Wassersports auszuüben. Málaga und Granada sind jeweils etwa eine Autostunde entfernt, so dass man beide gut besuchen kann.

Fantastic experience: Es increible, estoy pasando unos dias aqui y hace un tiempo estupendo, la gente es genial y cuando te vas a tomar el aperitivo las tapas son tan increibles que como te tomes tres consumiciones has comido. Merece la pena conocerlo.

Positive experience: Muy buen sitio para pasar un día en familia, bastantes restaurantes con calidad y las playas están muy bien cuidadas. La única pega es la falta de aparcamientos.

Negative experience: A clear example of wild development that has wiped out any virtue that the town may have had in the past. Today it is a jumble of buildings without rhyme or reason. Ridiculous streets, practically non-existent sidewalks, in short, a place with no interest whatsoever.
