Traveler advice

8 minute walk towards benalmadena
Getting around
Taxi vs. Uber
Ubers are usually cheaper than taxi. Never the less for the airport-carvajal its slighly more convenient to take a taxi as you have to wait 5-10 min for an uber an the cost is the same (around 28 euros). Good to confirm with the driver the cost estimate before leaving just in case
Book before you go
Alhambra in Granada or mosque in Cordoba.
If you are planning to make a day trip to Alhambra, it is better to book in advance.
What to pack
sunscreen
it is very unlikely that you don’t get a bright sunny weather in Málaga, you can buy sunscreen on the supermarket
Getting around
bus
right in front of the building, with an approx frequency of 20 minutes. have a look to the timetable on your arrival.
