113: Why We Chose Benalmádena - The Most Underrated Town on the Costa del Sol [Listener Favourite]

Everyone thinks of Benalmádena as a holiday town. We call it home.

In this listener-favourite episode - back by popular demand because you keep asking us - Sandra and Warner go behind the scenes of daily life in Benalmádena and explain why they chose it over Marbella and Málaga to be their forever home on the Costa del Sol.

From the marina to Arroyo de la Miel to the whitewashed Pueblo, we break down the three sides of the town, a real day in the life, the food scene, and exactly who Benalmádena suits best, from families to part-year investors who want walkability and a 30-minute train from the airport.

You’ll hear:

• Busting the myth that Benalmádena is “just for tourists”
• The three sides of town: the Marina, Arroyo de la Miel & Benalmádena Pueblo
• A real day in the life: coffee, school drop, beach walk, client calls
• Raising a family here: international schools, sport & cultural immersion
• Where to eat & drink: Sandra's and Warner's favourite spots
• Why it's underrated: Málaga on your doorstep without Marbella prices
• The train line, the airport run, and the walkability factor
