Best Suited For: All AgesCosta del Sol is a truly magnificent region filled with an array of fascinating tourist attractions suitable for families. The Teleferico Benalmadena is a tremendous cable car attraction that guides guests to the peak of Mount Calamorro. During this trip, you will see a collection of incredible views, and on clear days you can spot the remarkable coast of Africa. The starting point of this trip is just under an hour away, making it a very accessible landmark for those staying at La Roca de Frigiliana. Prices for this attraction can vary depending on the season but usually start at €16.90 for guests aged 11 and over.
If you are looking to explore the more nuanced depths of this region, Cueva de Nerja is a perfect place to rekindle your sense of adventure as a family. These wondrous caves are located just a 15-minute drive from Frigiliana, and the astonishing landmark hosts a wide assortment of archaic structures that are all preserved behind vast glass cases. The tours are self-guided using a recorded tape that guests use during their time here. Once you emerge to the surface, guests can visit the Nerja Museum to continue their learning. This museum is free to enter, but tickets cost around €14 each to enter the caves
For more land-based activities, you’re located in the foothills of the Sierra Almijara National Park, a rugged mountainous region that straddles the border between Granada and Malaga and is a superb hiking area and an ideal spot for climbers. There is a total of 13 signposted paths in the park, one of which starts on the doorstep in Frigiliana and winds its way to the Nerja caves at the Fuente del Esparto. Ideal for an active family day out!
Bioparc Fuengirola is a truly exceptional zoo that keeps the safety and comfort of its animals at the forefront of its mission statement. This attraction aims to replicate traditional habitats, using natural water sources and imitating tropical climates. In addition, the zoo does not use cages of any sort, meaning that you can see animals such as Himalayan Tapirs, Sumatran Tigers, and Pygmy Hippos in their healthiest and happiest form. This unique zoo also hosts a large selection of exhibitions, giving children the chance to learn more about these alluring creatures. Bioparc Fuengirola is less than an hour away and general admission costs just €23 per adult. It should be noted that the park runs on a first-come, first-served basis, and an online ticket does not guarantee priority access to the park.

At La Roca de Frigiliana you can enjoy a wedding reception and celebration subsequent to the marriage itself but they also offer the facility for legal marriages, civil ceremonies or blessings. There are various legal requirements and couples are advised to use one of our recommended wedding planners to ensure that all these requirements are adhered to the legalities. Catholic weddings in Spain are valid under Spanish law and recognised throughout Europe and the USA. Catholic marriages require six months notice to meet all documentary requirements. Other religious ceremonies such as Jewish weddings, are not considered valid unless a civil registry is signed in your country of residence. You will be given details of the local civil registry, as marriages must be registered within one week of the ceremony to be valid in Spain. Documents for any marriage or civil ceremony not written in Spanish will need to be accompanied by sworn translations stamped with the Hague Apostille service, which exists to simplify the legalisation of documents in your home country for international use.
Please note that any event rental may be subject to additional charges, venue hire fees and to a higher security deposit, which will be in addition to any published rental rates and fees.

Fabulous, large, airy very comfortable villa. Perfect for our family holiday
La Roca de Frigiliana is a fantastic holiday Villa. it is just outside Nerja so close to the beaches and shops but peaceful and undisturbed on a hill above and outside the town.
The facilities are excellent and it is extremely comfortable. it is airy and has lovely outdoor space by the pool and at the front on the very large Terrace. There is lots of outdoor seating - kitchen is excellently equipped - there are lots of fridges - air con in each room - all rooms are very comfortable. Sun loungers are plentiful and also very comfortable.
The tennis court is great and a real bonus if you like tennis! Between tennis, table tennis and the gorgeous pool there is plenty to keep you occupied.
The Villa gives a great sense of space inside and out and our family of 9 had a fantastic and relaxing holiday for two weeks.
I have to add that one of the biggest pluses of the Villa are Gill and Derek. They look after everything and do a really superb job. They are unobtrusive so you don't know they are there unless you need them, but they seem to be always available and sort out any query, request, issue immediately with no fuss and bother. They are the couple that all holiday Villas should have and would clone if they could!.We were extremely impressed by them.
Don't miss out! Reserve now and get a full refund if you change your mind within 48hrs.
