Holiday Rental Villas

Estepona is a great holiday destination, close to the popular resorts of Marbella, Puerto Banus and Sotogrande, but with its own traditional Spanish personality and charm. There is an abundance of villas in Estepona, dotted around the town in local urbanisations on the beachfront and in the mountains behind.

Estepona Bus Services

Estepona's new Bus Station opened in July 2014 and is located next door to the Exhibition and Congress Centre on Avenida del Litoral just beyond Carrefour hypermarket on the link to the A-7 coast road 1 km east of town center. The bus station houses the ticket office, toilets and waiting room. No cafeteria but there are vending machines.

Estepona

With an population of 70,000, Estepona is one of the few coastal towns that has succeeded in maintaining its pueblo charm and character. Notwithstanding, all the tourist facilities are here, including hotels, restaurants, leisure and cultural activities, and shops.

Estepona Big Wheel

The  40 metre high panoramic Ferris Wheel was a temporary attraction in Estepona and was in operation until early October 2024. It was dismantled over the second fortnight in October 2024.

Car Parking in Estepona

Street parking is difficult in Estepona. Certainly not in the old town or the central area. You may be lucky in the outlying areas. We recommend that you use a car park. Estepona is effectively cut in two, east and west of the old town. The original N-340 coastal road along the front in Estepona is now pedestrianised.

Estepona Choir

The Coral Magnum Mysteruim is the name of the Estepona town choir. The choir typically performs several traditional concert in Estepona each year, including a Christmas and summer concert, in the parish church of Nuestra Señora del Carmen and more recently in the Auditorum of the Mirador del Carmen. Its musical director is Miguel Ángel Garrido Sánchez professor at the Manuel Carras professional conservatory in Malaga.
