Weather

mI've just returned from a 4 night break in Los Boliches (10th - 14th Nov 2013). The weather was great, averaging 22-24 degrees daily. It was warm enough to sunbathe and swim in the sea. It was windy at night, requiring a cardigan or light jacket if going out and about.
It rained once for 30 minutes one afternoon. We just sat at our cafe until the sun returned and evaporated the rain. Marvellous!

Holiday

I loved our accommodation - 14th floor of the Stella Maris apartments - magnificient panoramic sea view.

Los Boliches has plenty of cafes, shops and tapas bars (all very reasonably priced) - and is only a 10 minutes walk from Fuengirola.

If you fancy a change of scenery, the train and bus services are frequent and cheap compared to the UK e.g. the train from Los Boliches to Malaga Airport was 5.20 euros for 2 adults (one way), a 20 min train ride.

Weather

I went on the 13th april for a week and the weather was bad thunder and rain for most of our holiday and cloud most of the rest.

Holiday

We stayed at Fuengirola beach. The hotel was clean, most staff where great, bar staff was very rude ripping your money out of your hand, kids entertianers where great cant fault them in anyway, the food was very bad i found plastic in my ice cream and our sausages where raw. The reps there where fantastic, outside hotel there is not much there to do, we went to go to the zoo but for 3 children and 2 adults they wanted 75 euros it was very expensive. The castle was good and not far from hotel. We would not go back again.

Weather

During my 14 years holidaying in Fuengirola I have always found beautiful weather during my stay.

Warm temperatures and mild evenings during the months of June/August make for a pleasant holiday.

My trip during Easter 2009 found me with needing "heat" after 5:30PM. During this time of year the evenings are cool and a sweater or fleece would be welcoming for evening walks along the beach of the dinner at a fine resturant.

My second trip was August 16th through September 21st 2009.

Holiday

I have been vacationing in Fuengirola for the 14 years and have found the weather very delightful. My first trip was in September 1995 and I must tell you the truth that I cannot stop going. So much so that I have chosen Fuengirola Spain as my future home for retirement at the end of 2011.

This place is warm and very welcoming. The area is very easy for shopping, theater, transportation by autobus or train, change of currency, clean beaches, and outstanding resturants.

My favorite resturant, "Aroma" owned by John Kelly and it is located along "Fish Alley" in Fuengirola. The presentation of the food, the attention given to one who dines there, the Friday night "classical" entertainment deserves 5 stars plus. You cannot go wrong by dinning there.

I plan to revisit Fuengirola in early September, 2010. My first visit of two weeks has now graduated to one month plus. Being an American, this is a great place to call "home"

Weather

I've been to Fuengirola about 12 times now and its only rained once; not bad!! Ive been in June, July, September, November and February and its always been perfect. Im back again on 17 July - I cant keep away!!

The majority of hotels and apartments have air con which you need in July/August as temperatures can get quite high.

Its cools down in an evening but doesnt get that cold to need a jacket or cardigan.

Holiday

My holidays to Fuengirola have varied from going on a hen weekend (which was fantastic) to being with my ex-partner and to holidaying with children.

Fuengirola is ideal for all ages as you can make it suit your requirements as there is plenty to do.

There are restaurants in fish alley which cater for all tastes; the chinese near to the Irish Bar is fantastic and the restaurants at the maina/port are also very good.

If you fancy eating out for breakfast then go to Scoffers - on the front facing the beach not far from the Las Palermas Hotel.

Very very hot but the sea was gorgeous
Lovely and warm luckily we had air conditioning a must if it is so hot.

We had lovely day at the aquapark by the miramar centre even I went on the huge slides and I am 63 great day.
Also lovely day at the zoo.

Brilliant. the accomadation is our own so we just pay for flights which is a bonus.
