Accomodation

Booking There are many places to stay: from hotels, bed and breakfasts and motels to resorts, villas, chalets and holiday homes. Whether you are planning your holiday long term or last minute. There is something suitable for every holidaymaker. Hostelworld Hostels are ideal for tourists who like to travel from place to place. The dormitory is usually shared with other travellers. But nowhere else do you get to know people as quickly as in a hostel. AirBnB Book an accommodation in top location for one or more people and for a good price. You can do this at AirBnB and enjoy your holiday in a relaxed way.

Free sleeping places

Couch Surfing Couch surfing is for people who want getting to know cosmopolitan people. Apartment or house owners who are registered in the couch surfing community offer travellers a free place to sleep (e.g. a couch). However, these accommodations are only suitable for single travellers who only stay for a short time in the same place. House-Sitting At House Sitting you will find great properties whose owners usually stay abroad for a longer period of time and who provide their accommodation to holidaymakers for the period of their absence so that they can take care of the property. All this for a good price. The holidaymaker takes care of the house or apartment for the duration of the stay.

Rent vehicles

Taxis

Benalmádena Taxi To get to Benalmádena by the fastest route from the airport or from Benalmádena to any other place on the Costa del Sol, it is advisable to book a taxi. You can book a taxi by calling 952 441 545 or directly on the company's website. Uber You can also get ahead quickly and cheaply by ordering a vehicle from Uber. This only works online via the company's website or app. A registration is necessary in advance. Cabify Another provider that offers a cheap way to get from one place to another is Cabify. Here, too, everything works online or via the company's app. Also for this a previous registration is necessary.

Other

In addition, you should always protect yourself during a stay abroad. A good travel insurance should therefore always be available. Most insurers offer travel insurance between ten and 20 euros per year. This insures a stay of 30 to 50 days in row at a time abroad. In addition, you should think about how you want to pay abroad. Many credit cards, for example, charge a fee for cash withdrawals. But there are bank cards that make payment and withdrawals abroad free of charge.
