Malaga Airport

Malaga Airport to Sun & Palms

Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport (AGP) is one of the busiest airports in Spain, with direct flights from across Europe. From the airport to our apartments in Riviera del Sol, Mijas Costa, it is around 37 km – about 25 minutes by car via the AP-7 toll motorway, or a little longer on the free A-7 coastal road.

Option 1: Rental car (our recommendation)

A car gives you the most freedom on the Costa del Sol, and there is free street parking outside our property. Most car hire companies have desks in the arrivals hall or a short shuttle ride away. See our car hire guide for tips on choosing a company and avoiding surprises.

Option 2: Taxi

Taxis wait outside the arrivals hall. The journey to Riviera del Sol takes around 25 minutes. Ask the driver to confirm the fare before you leave.

Option 3: Uber or Bolt

Uber and Bolt both operate at Malaga Airport, with a designated pick-up area. Book in the app once you have your luggage.

Option 4: Train and taxi

The local train (Cercanías line C1) runs from the airport station to Fuengirola, at the end of the line. From Fuengirola it is around 20 minutes by taxi, Uber or Bolt to our apartments.

Arriving at Sun & Palms

Check-in is from 15:00 to 22:00. Please send us your arrival time in advance and a message about an hour before you arrive – we will welcome you in person. Early or late check-in can be arranged in advance, subject to availability.
