One of the most popular activities here at Sunset Beach Club is the Spanish Cooking lessons our animation team puts on for our guests every Wednesday.
The star of these cooking lessons? Spain’s most famous and popular dish: The Paella.
There are many recipes and formulas that promise the secret to the ‘Ultimate Paella’; however, the reality is that a Paella can be made with lots of different ingredients allowing the cooks creativity to shine.
If you go to Valencia (Where the paella originated) it’ll look and taste different to the paella you’ll find here on the Costa del Sol. The important thing is that they all taste amazing and make for a delicious and enjoyable meal 🙂 (more…)

With the Christmas and holiday period over, it’s time to get back to your wedding preparations. Here at Sunset Beach Club we’re off to a flying (literally) start as we head to the Wedding Journal Show at the Citywest Complex in Dublin.

We’ll have our own stand (nº C5) which will be manned by our knowledgeable wedding team staff. For those of you thinking of getting married in Spain, Melissa, one of our wedding planners, will be available to answer any questions or queries you may have.

This Sunday night sees the arrival of the Three Kings, Gaspar, Melchor and Balthazar. Excitement is the operative word as kids (and some adults) eagerly await the arrival of the Three Kings of Orient bearing gifts for all those who have been good over the past year 🙂
The fun begins a little earlier though, as the Three Wise Men delight crowds in the traditional parades which take place in all the major cities, towns and villages on the afternoon of the 5th January.
Families will be lining the streets to catch a glimpse of the gift-bearing Kings sitting comfortably in their spectacular carriages which slowly make their way through the carefully planned routes. Make sure you take a plastic bag to collect all the sweets which will be thrown in to the crowds from the carriages! (more…)

Málaga’s impressive Automobile Museum is one of our recommended places to visit this Christmas. With a special Christmas programme of events aimed at all the family, visitors will be able to enjoy the history of the automobile together with fashion in a unique and unforgettable experience.
The star of this year’s programme is the presentation of the new collection: Trilogy. Once again, the museum will delight us with its unique take on the evolution of the automobile industry and fashion: An impressive exhibition of models combining society, movies and fashion. Marilyn Monroe in Givenchy, Ava Gardner in Pierre Cardin, Paloma Picasso with Yves Saint Laurent are just some of the amazing displays visitors will be able to see. (more…)

We recently wrote about the great accommodation options we have for larger families with out 1 bedroom (5 pax) and 2 bedroom apartments. Well today we want to tell you about another type of accommodation ideal for couples couples visiting Benalmadena and who don’t require a separate bedroom: Our Studio apartments.
We’ve only got a limited number of these units but their generous open plan layout (no separate bedroom) and sea facing location make them a popular choice. Add to that the fact that they are cheaper than our standard 1 bedroom exterior apartments, you can understand why these Studios don’t stay on the availability list for too long! (more…)

Last Wednesday the 11th December, we celebrated our traditional Staff Christmas Party here at Sunset Beach Club.
This year’s theme was “Brazilian Carnival” and as I am sure you can imagine, it made for some interesting fancy dress costumes and stage performances!!!
After a welcome cocktail with drinks and canapés we all sat down to enjoy a delicious buffet dinner which our chefs and kitchen staff had spent most of the day preparing. The meal was superb but the best part of the evening was yet to come…
Just before midnight – and to the sound of Samba drums – four ‘beautiful’ brazilian dancers took to the stage for a spectacular show with a traditional mix of Samba and impressive Capoeira moves! (See photos below). (more…)
