Extras
Popular with British holidaymakers for many years, the Costa del Sol’s sheltered coast is shaped by a succession of extensive beaches, hidden coves and fishing villages, and offers plenty to see and do whichever direction you choose. Our hotel enjoys a wonderful location so if taking time out is the call of the day, flop by the pool with a book or why not get out and about on an excursion and exploring to your hearts content like heading up to the white-washed village of Mijas Pueblo for some fantastic views over to Gibraltar and even the African coastline.
Time away from the sunbed is also on offer with plenty to see on a day out. Why not visit historical Ronda and its amazing views from the Tajo Gorge or take in the highlights of the enigmatic Andalucian city of Granada and its famous Moorish quarter of the Albaicin? No trip to this beautiful city would be complete without seeing the beautiful Alhambra Palace.
*Any excursions bookable in resort are subject to availability

Euro
The Tour Leader will be on hand to offer advice or suggestions if required but gratuities are offered entirely at the sole discretion of the individual.
We suggest a group collection at the end of your holiday to cover drivers, guides, porters and hotel staff (including restaurant, kitchen and reception staff) of approximately €15 (or the equivalent amount in local currency). Your Tour Leader will collect this on your behalf and distribute it accordingly, thus relieving you of the burden of who, when and how much to tip. The tipping of bar staff and housekeeping will be left to your individual discretion (the rounding up of the drinks bill and a small amount left in your room on departure should cover this and would be much appreciated).
As is customary, ‘the hat’ will be passed around for the driver and guide on all optional excursions. For any meals that are not included in your itinerary, restaurants expect a % gratuity (do check that service has not already been added to your bill). For taxis 10% of the metered fare.
Casual, cotton, lightweight daytime wear is the order of the day. Comfortable shoes are a must for sightseeing. Smart casual clothes will be ideal for the evening, with the emphasis throughout being informal but with no shorts or vests in the restaurants in the evenings. Early and late season evenings can be cool so do ensure that you take a cardigan or jacket and even some rainwear.

I was so nervous about embarking on my first Solos Holiday, but I shouldn’t have been – it was the best thing I have ever done!
Wow! Got to see the famous shipwreck beach in Zakynthos with Solos. Can’t wait to discover more of their destinations!
Our tour leader Monica was exceptional! Had such a good time and will be rebooking with Solos. Thanks for a great holiday!
Had the best time with Solos! Discovered beautiful destinations and met some lifelong friends.
