Sunset Beach Club
by Justin | Sep 19, 2014 | Golfer's Corner
Many golfers still prefer to walk a golf course rather than whiz around in a buggy.
Here on the Costa del Sol we are fortunate to have a wonderful and varied choice of golf courses to play. Some require a buggy as they are located in and around the hills overlooking the coast, others are walking-friendly and are perfect for those of you who prefer to carry (or pull) your golf bag around 18 holes.
Many of our guests at Sunset Beach Club are keen golfers so we thought we’d put together a quick list of our favourite courses which don’t require a buggy. At the end of the post we’ve embedded a map which shows where each of the courses is located. 🙂 (more…)

During the summer, we introduced our fantastic value lunch menus and the special paella offers, and the feedback from our guests was extremely positive; at 12€ for a 3 course meal, it’s no surprise that these menus were a great success!
As we enter the Autumn and Winter seasons and the days become shorter, many of our guests, especially those from the northern hemisphere, enjoy having an early dinner in our restaurant. So, we’ve just recently introduced a new ‘Early Bird’ menu which is available every day from 6:30pm to 7:30pm. (more…)

Poster for Mijas’ Tourist Day
The Summer Season is almost at an end and the small village of Mijas wants to celebrate in style by organising a large party in honour of the thousands of tourist who have visited them throughout the year; it’s their particular way of saying thank you!
Mijas’ Tourist Day – a celebration which has been going for more than 10 years – will take place next Wednesday 17th September from midday in the town’s ‘Virgen de la Peña’ square. The town hall has prepared lots of fun activities to thank their visitors for their loyalty, including two fantastic flamenco shows by Flamenco Group ‘Jaleo’ and the ‘Zambra’ Spanish Ballet.
All that singing, dancing and music wouldn’t be the same without some tasty thrist quenching wine. And that’s just what the organisers have arranged… lots of free wine will be served to visitors throughout the afternoon!
Are you going to join in the fun at the Mijas Tourist Day?

September is a busy month for the wedding and banquets team here at Sunset Beach Club. With the stifling temperatures of August behind us, the milder (but still warm) weather makes it an ideal time of year to get married in Spain. It’s also a very busy month for wedding shows and exhibitions in Dublin, Ireland.
So that’s precisely where the Sunset Beach Club Weddings Team are off to this weekend, and again at the end of the month.
Dublin hosts two of the biggest wedding shows in Ireland this month: The Wedding & Honeymoon Show at the RDS this weekend (5th & 6th of September) and the Wedding Journal Show at City West at the end of the month (27th & 28th September). (more…)
