Northern Soul promoters, GoldSoul, are heading back to Sunset Beach Club this February with another edition of their winter soul break, a fun-packed 5-day soul music experience!
As many of you know, for the last 17+ years we’ve welcomed GoldSoul for their week-long Costa del Soul events. These usually take place at the end of October, and are, undeniably the top soul music events on the Costa del Sol.
Building on the success of their autumn Costa del Soul holidays, GoldSoul recently (before Covid messed things up) added this new Soul and Motown Break to their calendar!
From the 7th to 12th February (2025) Soul and Motown music fans can enjoy a jam-packed long weekend break in the sun with music every night in the Sunset Beach Club Moonlight Bar and daily lunchtime sessions at the Kanaloa terrace, by the pool.
Some of the UK’s top northern soul DJ’s will be flying in especially for this Soul music weekend including Kev Roberts, Snowy, Ozz, Ossie Stewart, Tim Rabjohn, Sam Evans, Andy Baskett as well as other DJ’s and guests yet to be announced.
If you’re a Soul and Motown music fan and are interested in more information about this weekend break, please contact www.goldsoul.co.uk . You’ll be able to book a full package including accommodation and full entertainment pass for all the shows throughout the 5 days.
This is a privately organised event; however, hotel guests and non-residents are welcome to join in the fun. Entrance fee will be €10 per person and night and is payable at the door each night.
Ricky Lavazza, one of Sunset Beach Club’s most popular entertainers, is putting on another edition of his special and fun-packed weekend of Rock ‘n roll and music from the 50’s & 60’s.

Guests purchasing tickets for the whole event (including accommodation) are in for 4 days of fun with a packed activities program. It all kicks off on Friday 24th January with a welcome drink followed by Professional dance Sessions in the Sala Ronda. At 9:00pm you can enjoy the first of 4 amazing shows in the Moonlight Bar. ‘Revival live band’ will be Ricky’s guests for the Rock n’ Roll Rewind Show playing songs from stars like Jerry Lee Lewis, Buddy Holly, Elvis, Eddie Cochran and lots more!

In the afternoon of Sunday 5th January, kids all over Spain will be lining the streets of all the main towns and cities to watch the traditional Three Kings Parades.
This is the highlight of the Christmas festivities and a must-watch for anyone visiting at this magical time of year. Many of our guests like to venture into town and watch the colourful parades so we’ve put together this blog post highlighting some of our favourite processions with timetables and the exact locations of each. All you have to do is choose the most appealing to you! (more…)
With just over a week to go until Christmas, Málaga city centre is bustling with festive fun and excitement!
A walk through the streets of the city’s historic centre at Christmas time is an experience we would recommend to all who visit the Costa del Sol at this time of year. The stunning Christmas lights, mouth-watering gastronomy and magical ambience make for a truly wonderful visit to the Coast’s capital.
There’s lots going on in Malaga over Christmas; however, the four suggestions listed below are absolute musts: (more…)
Although not the high season here in Benalmadena, Christmas time offers lots of interesting things to keep the whole family entertained.
Our guests often ask us for recommendations on things to do at this time of year so we’ve decided to put together this list which includes activities and specific places you can visit during the holidays. Although the title of this post specifically states Benalmadena, you’ll find that our list wanders a little further down the Coast; that being said, all of these places are well connected by public transport.
If you’re planning on visiting the Costa del Sol this Christmas I’m sure you’ll find something of interest on the list. Here goes… (more…)
With just a couple of weeks to go until Christmas, Benalmádena is getting into the Christmas spirit by celebrating the 15th edition of the International Christmas Festival.
On the 13th, 14th and 15th of December, you can visit Plaza Mezquita (it was Plaza Adolfo Suarez last year but they’ve changed it back to its original location again this year) from 13:00h to midnight (until 21:00h on Sunday 15th December) and enjoy the festive customs, musical shows, exquisite gastronomy and typical products and crafts from all the participating countries.
As the official hotel partner of the European Cricket Network, we’re delighted to welcome them back for the second edition of the successful Women’s European Cricket Championship which will be held at the Cartama Oval from the 9th to the 20th December 2024.
This exciting tournament will follow in its men’s counterpart’s footsteps and be divided into two divisions; the Challenger and Premier. As we experienced with the men’s Championship held in October, this new format will ensure competitive balance and allow all participating teams to show off their skills at the Cartama Oval.
Another unique feature this year is that we’ll have two champions crowned, one for each division.
The teams taking part this year are as follows:
Challenger Division
Premier Division
Spain
England XI
Austria
Ireland XI
Germany
Scotland XI
Jersey
Netherlands XI
Czechia
Italy
From the 9th to 15th December we’ll see the Challenger division teams take to the field and we’re hoping to see a repeat of the great cricket experienced last year!
From the 15th to the 20th December Europe’s top cricketing nations take centre stage with the England XI looking to retain their ‘Champions’ status. We’re sure last year’s runners-up, Netherlands XI will have something to say about that!
We look forward to welcoming all the teams to Sunset Beach Club next week and can’t wait to sit back and enjoy some world-class women’s cricket over the next couple of weeks!
Anyone looking to stay at Sunset Beach Club during the tournament can check availability and prices online through our website www.sunsetbeachclub.com.
Have you made any plans for Christmas and New Year?
It’s a fun and exciting time to visit Sunset Beach Club, and whilst it’s a little different than spending it in front of the fire with rain or snow outside, there’s something special about enjoying a glass of Bucks Fizz whilst sitting out in the Winter sunshine 🙂
As is the tradition at Sunset Beach Club, we’ve put together another fantastic Festive Programme for all guests who spend Christmas and New Year with us (see below). (more…)
Do you want to visit a replica of the first sailing ship to sail around the world?
Well, you’re in luck because this December, the Nao Victoria, a replica of the first ship to circumnavigate the world, will visit Benalmadena and Malaga.
From December 4 to 7, 2024 it will be docked in Puerto Marina, Benalmádena and from December 12, 2024 to January 12, 2025 you can visit it in the Muelle Uno area of the Port of Malaga.
As of Tuesday 3rd December 2024, some apartment types at Sunset Beach Club will have new names.
Why? We hear you ask… Well, it’s all to do with new tourism legislation.
This new legislation requires us to change the name of some of our room types, particularly our ‘1 bedroom apartments’ now called ‘Studio-apartments’. The chart below shows you a full list of all our apartment types with the old and new names.
We want to reassure you that these are just name changes and there is NO change to room layouts of descriptions.
So if you arrive on holiday at Sunset Beach Club and see that the name of the apartment type you have been assigned doesn’t coincide with what you have on your reservation confirmation, don’t panic! You haven’t been given a different apartment, it’s just got a new name.
If you have any questions or queries about this ‘Name change’, our staff are available to help you. You can call or email our reservations team or send a Live Chat message through our website (www.sunsetbeachclub.com).
