It’s no secret that Sunset Beach Club is an Irish-owned hotel, therefore, the 17th March is an important day in our calendar. Every year we prepare our “Sunset Style” celebrations. This year they’ll include consuming copious amounts of Guinness at the Panorama Bar and a fantastic “Irish Themed” buffet dinner for all our guests in our newly refurbished Oasis Restaurant!
This year’s celebrations in Arroyo de la Miel have now been confirmed. Weather permitting, we’ll all be able to enjoy a fun day out on the 17th March!

We’re just a few days away from the start of Carnival Season and most towns and cities on the Costa del Sol (Including Benalmadena) are gearing up for a week of fun and entertainment.
Although the Carnival is celebrated all over Andalucia – The Cadiz Carnival is probably the most famous – for the purpose of this article, we’re going to focus on the Málaga Carnival; only 25 minutes from our hotel and easily accessible, it’s a ‘must visit’ if you are planning a trip to the Costa del Sol in February.
We’re lucky enough to enjoy mild winters and this luxury allows the city of Málaga to live one of its most colourful, multicultural and spontaneous festivities of the year: The Carnival.
With hundreds of activities and events taking place during the week-long (sometimes a little longer) festivities, you’re guaranteed to have a ball!

Featuring short films from all over the world, this festival is the perfect occasion to introduce our mouth-watering local gastronomy through this unique medium: the Film Tapas Route.
