Has The Costa Del Sol Become Too Expensive? 🇪🇸

Has The Costa Del Sol Become Too Expensive? 🇪🇸 The Costa Del Sol has long been one of the most popular holiday destinations in Spain, but has it become too expensive in 2026?

In this video we spend a full day in Fuengirola on the Costa Del Sol, eating, drinking and exploring to find out exactly what things cost. From Spanish breakfasts and tapas to beers, cocktails, coffee and dinner, we share real prices from around Fuengirola and compare them to what we paid during previous visits.

During the day we try:
🍳 A full Spanish breakfast for €8
🍺 Tapas and a beer for €2.90
☕ Coffee and Tejeringos from a local café
🍻 Two pints for €6 and two cocktails for €10 at O’Sullivan’s Irish Bar
🍕 Dinner at Luigi’s including pizzas, drinks and sides

We also explore Fuengirola, walk along the seafront, visit local cafés, bars and restaurants, and look at the cost of a holiday on the Costa Del Sol in 2026.

If you’re planning a Spain holiday, visiting Fuengirola, Malaga or anywhere on the Costa Del Sol, this video will give you a realistic look at current food prices, drink prices and everyday holiday costs.

Set between Málaga and Marbella, Fuengirola is one of the Costa del Sol’s most vibrant seaside destinations. Renowned for its year-round sunshine, seven kilometres of golden sandy beaches, and lively atmosphere, it attracts families, couples, and visitors looking for the perfect blend of relaxation, entertainment, and Mediterranean charm.

Originally a humble fishing village, Fuengirola has evolved into a thriving coastal town while retaining glimpses of its rich past. At its heart lies the Plaza de la Constitución, while the impressive Sohail Castle, dating back to Moorish times, stands proudly overlooking the sea. Together, these landmarks offer a fascinating contrast to the town’s modern waterfront and bustling promenade.

Fuengirola is also a paradise for food lovers and shoppers. From traditional tapas bars and fresh seafood restaurants to international cuisine, stylish cafés, and boutique shops, there’s something for every taste. The palm-lined promenade is perfect for leisurely walks, cycling, or simply enjoying spectacular Mediterranean views.

As the sun sets, Fuengirola comes alive with one of the Costa del Sol’s best nightlife scenes. Its wide selection of bars, beach clubs, live music venues, and late-night clubs are all within easy walking distance, creating a lively yet welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re seeking a relaxing beach holiday, cultural discoveries, or vibrant evenings out, Fuengirola offers something for everyone.

Is Torremolinos The Best Place On The Costa Del Sol? 🇪🇸

Is Torremolinos The Best Place On The Costa Del Sol? 🇪🇸

Is Torremolinos actually the best spot on the Costa del Sol, or should you stick to Fuengirola or Benalmádena? We’re exploring everything from the hidden “Old Town” streets to the best value-for-money eats and drinks on the beachfront. In today’s vlog, we take our first-ever trip to Torremolinos, Spain. We’re breaking down the costs of a day out—from a €15.95 Indian feast to the “tourist tax” on beachfront drinks.

In this video, we cover:
-First Impressions: Why the city vibes surprised us compared to other resort towns.
-The Cost of Travel: We find a €5 beauty treatment and break down the price of drinks at a popular Irish bar.
-Food Tour: A hidden gem bakery and a €15.95 set-menu Indian dinner that felt like a total steal.
-Torremolinos vs. Fuengirola: Which beach has a better vibe for your next holiday?

La Carihuela Torremolinos Spain 🇪🇸 Fantastic Summer 2026 July Update Costa del Sol | Málaga [4K]

La Carihuela is the charming seaside district of Torremolinos, located on the western edge of Málaga’s Costa del Sol. Once a traditional fishing village, it has retained much of its authentic Andalusian character while evolving into one of the region’s most popular coastal destinations.

The name La Carihuela is believed to refer to its origins as a small fishing community. For generations, local families relied on the sea for their livelihood, and the neighbourhood developed independently from the main town of Torremolinos due to the steep 30-metre rise separating the two. Fishing remained the heart of daily life until the tourism boom of the 1950s transformed the area. As visitors flocked to the Costa del Sol, La Carihuela became renowned for its beachfront restaurants, where freshly caught seafood and the famous pescaíto frito (Andalusian fried fish) quickly earned an outstanding reputation. At its peak, the village was home to a fleet of around 40 fishing boats.

Originally, La Carihuela consisted of a row of modest fishermen’s cottages and simple beach huts, a few of which can still be seen today along Calle Los Perros. The area’s transformation began in 1948 with the opening of the iconic El Remo nightclub, followed by the construction of landmark hotels including the Hotel Pez Espada, Hotel Tropicana, Hotel Montemar, and several others that helped establish Torremolinos as one of Spain’s pioneering holiday resorts.

Today, La Carihuela perfectly blends its rich maritime heritage with a relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle. Visitors can stroll along its lively palm-lined promenade, browse boutique shops, enjoy spectacular sea views, or dine at one of the many restaurants serving some of the freshest seafood on the Costa del Sol. The neighbourhood is also home to the beautiful Church of Nuestra Señora del Carmen, dedicated to the patron saint of fishermen, making La Carihuela a destination where history, culture, and seaside charm come together.

28:33 Final Thoughts: Paradise or Big Mistake?

After living and travelling across Costa del Sol for several years, we’ve come back to one big question that many people continue to ask: What is life here actually like beyond the holiday version?

In a previous video, we shared what we called the “ugly truth” about Costa del Sol. That video focused on one side of life here and sparked a lot of discussion from people thinking about moving to Spain or visiting the region.

In this video, we take a more complete and updated look at life on the Costa del Sol today. We explore both the positives and the realities that come with living in or spending extended time in this part of Southern Spain.

There’s no doubt that Costa del Sol offers a unique lifestyle. From its famous microclimate and year-round sunshine to its coastal towns, mountain scenery and easy access through Malaga airport, it remains one of the most popular destinations in Europe for both relocation and travel. Areas like Marbella, Estepona, Malaga, Fuengirola, Benalmadena, Torremolinos and Nerja each offer a slightly different version of coastal life, from luxury living to more traditional Spanish towns.

At the same time, there are realities that don’t always appear in travel brochures. Infrastructure, traffic, public transport limitations and rising prices can all shape the experience depending on where and how you live. The beaches, the transient nature of some areas and the level of international influence also shapes how local or international the lifestyle feels depending on the area.

This video is designed to give a more balanced and honest perspective — whether you’re thinking about moving to Spain, investing in property, or simply planning a trip to the Mediterranean coast.

The Costa del Sol is not just one experience. It’s a region with many layers, and your experience can change significantly depending on where you are and how you choose to live it.

Torremolinos was the first of the Costa del Sol resorts to be developed and is still the most popular in the region. The beach which extends for nearly 8km (5.0 miles), includes cycle and skating lanes alongside the fully illuminated promenade and features many beach bars and local chiringuitos. The eastern part of the beach, known as Los Álamos, offers a relaxing and peaceful atmosphere all-year round. They also have windsurfing and kitesurfing among many water sports activities to offer during the summer season.

Located between the beaches of La Carihuela and Playamar is El Bajondillo. It is an impressive expanse of beach 40 meters wide and 1 kilometer long, right in the center of the town and one of the most visited. Definitely an urban beach, it is highly rated by residents and tourists due to its variety of services. Any time of the year tourists can enjoy the sea breeze. The beach restaurants provide different types of local fish cuisines freshly caught within the day!

At the seaside, there are the usual rentals available of bicycles, mopeds, electric scooters, jets skis, surf boards, parasailing, sailing, paddle, ski boats and snorkelling.

NERJA SUMMER 2026 NIGHTLIFE UPDATE 🇪🇸 | COSTA DEL SOL MÁLAGA SPAIN Walking Tour [4K]

Nerja is a charming coastal town that offers a unique blend of experiences. Located on the eastern Costa del Sol, it has a relaxed atmosphere during the day that transforms into a lively and inviting scene after sunset. For many visitors, exploring Nerja’s evening entertainment is one of the highlights of their stay.

Compared to some of the larger resorts along the Costa del Sol, Nerja’s nightlife is more laid-back, reflecting its popularity with families and older travellers. Even so, during the summer season the town comes alive with a great selection of bars, pubs, and places to enjoy an evening out.

Dining is another of Nerja’s main attractions. The town boasts an impressive variety of restaurants serving everything from traditional Spanish dishes to international cuisine. The historic old town has the greatest concentration of eateries, with restaurants lining its picturesque streets, while the area around Burriana Beach also offers plenty of excellent dining options.

For a more authentic local experience, many people choose to visit one of Nerja’s numerous tapas bars. Sharing tapas or larger raciones is a favourite way for Spaniards to dine, particularly during the warmer months. These lively venues are popular gathering spots where friends and families meet for drinks and small plates before continuing their evening. Most tapas bars open in the afternoon and stay busy until around midnight.

Whether you’re looking for a relaxed drink, live music, or a vibrant social atmosphere, Nerja has something to suit every age group. The town’s nightlife is centred around Tutti Frutti Square and Calle Antonio Millón, although you’ll also find plenty of welcoming bars and entertainment venues throughout the town center.
