Hi, First Travelling to Benalmadena is very cheap useing the train,When you come out of the main doors
if I remember correct you cross over the airport road and follow the signs & people pulling cases!!
through to the station there are few steps & a walk way involved to get there but it's not to bad.
you have to pay @ the machine as you get to the platform. cost us about €2 each so very cheap
from there to Benalmadena. try doing a google search map to get your bearings of locations.

sorry car'nt help on your exact location but Benalmadena is a lovely resort with plenty to do.
weather is normaly very good in september{hope it still is we go sept 13th!!}

Entertainment wise suppose will depend on how many tourists are there alot of people are saying it's quieter
than normal so Hotel's my offer better.
easy to get about by local buses, torremolinos,fuengerola, almost continues from Benalmadena
again great resorts, Marbella can be reached by bus. Andalucia.com have a Daily weather report.
in english.if you like Carboot sales try Fuengerola carboot it's MASSIVE!! Think it was on mid week
not 100% sure now. Hope you love it as much as we do.
Enjoy your Holiday.

thing is you have got to get to your hotel from train station.so Resort Hopper would drop you off right outside your hotel.less hassle as well.

Re resort Hopper can you give me some details about it please.
Not heard of this sounds like it may be a alternative to the train for us.
Thanks. {save me ending up like this}L.OL.

ok it easy really.fill form in on left side with all details.then click get price.follow inst,then pay.you will get a email voucher print it off.when you get to airport other end.the letter will say look out for a desk ect.you get on bus.you might just have to wait a little for others to get on.then your off to resort dropping people off.you might be first you might be last.24 hours before you return you will need to phone them.for bus time pick going back.this is the check you are still there and not ill or anything else.you must be at point told 15 mins before time given...they will get you to airport well in time for your flight...

its cheap as well.run all over spain.i use it in benidorm had never had a problem.even had a 52 seater and a mini bus to my self....really its just like it would be if you had gone with a tour op.

price it up.but check you have ticked right boxes and times.

Train to Arroyo from Airport around €1.45, then taxi from Arroyo de Meil down to LA will cost around €8 for 2.. plus 2 cases..LA is central to everything, beach, bars, cafe's, restaurants, Paloma Park and 5-8mins walk to clubs with live entertainment..weather should be around 28c..so enjoy your stay..

Thanks for the info marsol & Davanne21.

I see Resort Hopper have had a makeover/upgrade.

We've used it all over the Canaries and the Balearics never had any problems regardless off 'varied' arrival departure times.

Highly recommend them.

We had a bad experience with Resort Hoppers, had to hang around for 45 mins by the mini bus waiting for other passengers and on reaching Benidorm we had to get off on the top road as they don't go along the promenade where we were staying - 15 min walk with the luggage. Coming back we phoned the previous day and were told time and place of pick-up, we got there 25 mins before the time they said and waited an hour. Phoned them again and they said we weren't there when they came! So we had to grab a taxi so well out of pocket as we'd pre-paid for the hopper. Maybe we were just unlucky but wouldn't use them again!!
