Getting glammed up for a night out in Marbella is one of the highlights of the summer season for
me; it doesn’t happen as often as I would like but we had guests staying with us who wanted to
sample the famous Marbella nightlife, so I was only too happy to oblige.

The famous vino of Southern Spain
Thursday May 17th, 2012
As I took a sip from the fifth glass of wine, I couldn’t help but smile at the fact that it was 11am on a
Tuesday morning and I was on my fifth glass of wine, what would the neighbours say? Thankfully I
was on holiday in Marbella, so no neighbours around to poke their noses in. Talking of poking noses
in, I was taking part in a wine tasting trip to the Ronda Valley (Spain not Wales!!) where nose poking
is very much encouraged.

For example, if some members of your group are tired on one or more of the days, they can stay around the holiday villas and relax. Many of the properties we offer feature private pools, which are perfect for some rest and relaxation.
Meanwhile, you are not restricted in terms of your mealtimes and can build these into your own schedule.

Planning Holidays In Spain
Monday May 30th, 2011
Spain is a wonderful destination for a holiday nearly any time of year. The Mediterranean weather means mild to warm summers and mild winters. Holidays in Spain can take any number of directions or themes, from golfing with your co-workers to family outings, and from hen night weekends to history tours.
When you book villa holidays in Spain with Azure Holidays, we offer you beautiful, luxury villa rentals along some of the most attractive parts of the Spanish coast, including Costa Blanca, Costa De Almeria, and Costa Del Sol. Many are located within walking distance of the beaches, villages, and local shops and pubs.
Visit Castles, cathedrals, ancient monasteries, botanical gardens, and theme parks. Stroll through the Spanish villages and shop in the local market stalls. Hike in the mountains or go horseback riding along the coast.
If you plan to explore any further than a few miles from your villa, we recommend that you hire a car for your holiday. Public transportation is available in many areas, but you will find the convenience of your own car more freeing.
Bring your camera if you plan to visit historic sites and castles. You definitely won’t want to forget the experience. If you think it might be necessary, bring a small Spanish/English dictionary. You may also want sun lotion, an umbrella, and a rain jacket.
When planning for holidays in Spain, remember to do some research so that you know where you want to visit and what you want to do before you leave the UK.
