WHY GO
Sun, sea, sangria... There are so many good reasons to go to Spain, especially as the short flight from the UK to Malaga makes it so accessible.
Nearby Marbella has earned itself a bit of a reputation after becoming one of the top holiday destinations for the cast of TOWIE. If you like cocktails and fancy food as the sun sets and a vibrant nightlife scene, the city has a host of glitzy offerings.
But while the party vibe and the luxury yachts in the Puerto Banus marina make it a playground for the rich and famous, Marbella has so much more to offer. Its stunning coastal location and surrounding historic towns make it the perfect destination for beach days and sightseeing trips with the family, too.
If you're travelling in a group, consider booking a holiday home through holiday rental platform Vrbo. The company has thousands of rentals on its website, in destinations worldwide, so you'll be able to find a place that caters for your exact needs.
