  2. Booking Accommodation in Malaga & the Costa del SolFor accommodation on the Costa del Sol, Venere.com has a great clickable map to help you choose your hotel. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a huge amount of hotels in Malaga itself. If you're looking for hotels in Malaga, use Travelocity instead.
  3. Book Guided Tours of the Costa del SolThough most people only go to the Costa del Sol for the beaches, there is plenty more to see. Public transport is difficult on the Costa del Sol, so these guided tours (where transport is included) are ideal.

    The quickest way to Malaga from Madrid, even quicker than an internal flight is the high-speed AVE train which makes the 500km journey in two-and-a-half hours.
