Going to Spain next April for two weeks. Staying at the Marbella Marriott, Costa del Sol. Any suggestions for st uff to do? We will be doing a mix of chilling at the pool/beach and lots of day trips to surrounding cities like Cordoba, Seville, Gibralter, etc. Any must see’s or must do’s? Advice?
Never been to Costa del Sol, but I understand that Andalusia is one of the areas where you can still find bars with free tapas.
Edit to add: I’ve never been that interested when traveling in seeing sights. Paris – I’d much rather head out to Fountainbleu and boulder than see the Louvre and that tower thing. I much prefer hanging out, meeting people, trying food, etc. That said, if you can get to Granada and visit the Alhambra, that place is amazing.
Did Spain in late-March a few years ago. Absolutely spectacular time to go. Might be a little cold for being a beach-bum, though.
(I tend to do somewhat the opposite of Alan, though–vacations are my time to get all my artsy-fartsy nature out, although the hanging out with locals is a favorite part)
