Costa del Sol Holiday Accommodation Options

January 26th 2011 07:16
When it comes to holidays, the Costa del Sol in the south of Spain has everything to offer. Beaches, restaurants, sun, sea and of course tapas. You can even ski if you visit the Sierra Nevada’s at the right time of year!

When it comes to finding the right accommodation there are a number of options available and will depend on your different requirements.

Self Catering Rentals

If you are happy to book your own flights direct then a self catering holiday rental in the Costa del Sol may be the right option.


Self catering holiday rentals mean that you will be staying in a privately owned apartment or villa which has its own cooking facilities.

There are many other advantages of renting a private holiday home. For a start you will have your own swimming pool and you will also be able to cook your own food at a time that suits you. If you choose a villa rental in the Costa del Sol, it will also mean that you are less likely to be disturbed by noisy holidaymakers late at night.

All in all, a self catering rental allows you more freedom and flexibility than a package holiday.

Hotels
A private holiday rental is great for many but not everyone’s cup of tea. Many of use want more of a structure and would rather leave the cleaning and cooking to someone else.

The Costa del Sol has many great hotels providing different board basis including all inclusive, half board and full board. With half board you are generally only provided with breakfast and lunch, whereas with full board you would also be entitled to an evening meal.

All-inclusive breaks are favoured by many and this means that all your meals and drinks are included meaning that you do not have to keep an eye on your money and are free to eat and drink until your hearts content. It’s also a good option if you have children as it means that ice creams are also included.


With a hotel you will also find that there is regular entertainment provided. These can quite often be great fun and enable you to spend some evenings at the hotel instead of venturing out.

Another good advantage of a hotel over a self catering rental, is that the hotels quite often have a kids club where the children and taken away and entertained during the day. This prevents boredom and also allows mum and dad to chill out and enjoy their holiday.

Aparthotels
The final option when it comes to accommodation is to stay in an aparthotel in the Costa del Sol. An aparthotel is very similar to a regular hotel. There is entertainment, swimming pools, bars and other facilities. The only difference is that your accommodation will include cooking facilities.

This allows you more flexibility when it comes to means as you are not tied to fixed and rigid meal times. Many aparthotels also include their own restaurant which means that if you need a break from cooking you can have a meal in the hotels restaurant.
