Best Areas to Live in Benalmádena
– A Neighbourhood Guide

Benalmádena is a lively coastal municipality on the western Costa del Sol, about 20 minutes from Málaga Airport. It is split between three distinct areas: Benalmádena Pueblo (the traditional hilltop village), Arroyo de la Miel (the bustling commercial centre), and Benalmádena Costa (the beachfront strip).

With a long-established international community, Benalmádena is one of the most cosmopolitan towns on the coast. It is home to Puerto Marina, one of the most recognisable marinas on the Costa del Sol, the Castillo de Bil-Bil and the Teleférico cable car, which climbs to the summit of Mount Calamorro for panoramic views.

Whether you’re seeking a luxury waterfront apartment, a charming village townhouse, or an investment property with strong rental demand, Benalmádena has a neighbourhood for you.
