A popular beach resort located on the Costa del Sol coastline of Andalucia, southern Spain, Fuengirola attracts thousands of holidaymakers throughout the year, who arrive to make use of the fabulous sandy beaches, fine sporting facilities, good quality hotels and vibrant nightlife scene. Fuengirola began its life as a holiday resort back in the 1960’s and continued to expand until the present day, perhaps a little too much as along with Torremolinos and Benalmadena, has a bit of a reputation as a concrete jungle. The majority of visitors however spend the bulk of their stay in the resort, enjoying the five mile long sandy beach and basking in the terrific Fuengirola weather which the resort experiences. There is plenty of choice in accommodation with dozens of hotels on offer, there is also a wide variety of privately owned accommodation (apartments and villas) making it fairly simple to book a stay in the town.
