Here’s a few photos of the halloween decorations in our Panorama Bar and the Kids Club. Our animation team have been working hard since yesterday to get all the decorations up in time for this evening!
At 8:30 pm, all kids who want to join in the Halloween spirit will be meeting up in the Kids Club for Face Painting! After that, its time for “Trick or Treat”! Together with the animation team, the kids will be making their way around the hotel, knocking on doors and asking the famous question; Trick or Treat? If you are staying at the hotel, I recommend you stock up on sweets; you have been warned! đ
Hopefully tomorrow we’ll have some great photos of the evening and will be posting them here!
Happy Halloween!

The Birthday Girl
Last week, Melissa from our Commercial Department celebrated her 20th Birthday with a meal for her friends and family; however, it was only for girls! As can be seen in the photos, it looks like everyone had a good time!
The evening got off to a great start with a lovely meal in our Oasis Restaurant; after the 3 course meal which included generous servings of SangrĂa, Melissa and her guests were ready for some singing and dancing and duly headed to the Moonlight Cabaret Bar (more…)

As from the 27th March 2011, British Airways will be increasing the number of flights into Malaga airport from two to four a day. All of these extra flights to Malaga will depart from Gatwick airport and the total number of weekly flights to the Costa del Solâs capital will be 28.
British Airways will be using Boeing 737 or Airbus A319 aircraft for this route; the service will include Club Europe and Euro Traveller cabins catering to both the business traveller and those looking for a cheaper alternative.
This is welcomed news for many travellers who prefer to fly with one of the larger carriers rather than the often â although not always â cheaper alternative of budget airlines. Letâs not forget that British Airways flights include onboard catering, online check in with the option to reserve your seat 24 hours before departure, all free of charge (makes a nice change from all the extra charges on most airlines).
Letâs hope that increase in flights will eventually translate to cheaper air fares for anyone wanting to fly from London to Malaga!

A Selection of Tapas
The town of BenalmĂĄdena celebrates its third âRuta de la Tapaâ. This unique event starts on Friday the 15th October end continues until the 24th October and the town hall hope that it will help to vitalize restaurant activity and attract clients at a time when tourist activity is lower.
So what exactly is a âRuta de la Tapaâ? Well, basically, its an event where various establishments â in this case there are thirty â agree to form part of a gastronomic route that allows participants to sample a wide variety of traditional tapas for a set price which includes a drink â prices at this event are a very reasonable, 1.50 per tapa and drink! â Visitors are given a âpassportâ which they have to hand in at each establishment they visit so that it can be stamped. At the end of the route, visitors hand in the passports and are then entered into a prize draw where they can win various prizes. All visitors who participate in this yearâs event will also be given special handkerchiefs which they will have to wear around their necks; this allows the establishments to identify anyone taking part.
The prizes for this yearâs raffle include the following: free breakfast, lunch or dinners at the various restaurants and bars taking part; entrances to some of Benalmadenaâs amusement parks and the star price this year: two cruises around the Mediterranean for 4 people!
Definitely a different experience for you to enjoy on your holidays; a great variety of tapas and wines all at very reasonable prices (1.50 Euro for a tapa and drink) and, of course, the chance to win a fantastic cruise!
