El Lago

El_lago_3.2_Development_PoolThe El Lago construction was started after Los Pinos. The apartments are both front line golf and second line golf. The urbanization has views of the golf course, the protected Moorish signal tower and the Lake by the 15th and 17th fairways. The white Andalucian style dwellings have just been repainted giving them a very authentic feel. At night and early evening whilst sitting on your terrace sipping a glass of chilled wine or a gin and tonic, you can hear the frogs chirruping by the lake and the bells around the necks of the goats grazing on the hill opposite. This hill is not part of Los Arqueros and is reportedly owned by the Onassis family.

Being in El Lago gives you the best communications with coast of any of the Los Arqueros Urbanizations. The new road at the bottom gives you quick access to the Ronda Road and the Autovia to the left and to the right Benahavis and the N340 towards Estepona and Gibraltar missing out San Pedro.

El_lago_3.2_Pool_aEl Lago has two swimming pools the larger of the two is easily accessible from all apartments and the smaller of the two is right outside blocks 9 to 12. It is also walking distance to the Club house. Even though it is up an incline, this is all money in the bank, as after your drinks, meal and evening entertainment at the club house an easy saunter back down to your apartment is your reward.

Markets

There are markets along the Costa del Sol every day except Sundays and these usually operate from about 9/10am until about 2pm. They tend to be manned by the same stall holders who set up their stalls somewhere different every day and then pack them away about 2pm only to start all over again the next morning.

You will find a wide range of goods on sale such as clothes, shoes, towels and blankets, ceramic pots and dishes to mention just a few. The prices tend to be fixed but if you think they are too high you may managed to barter with a few of the sellers - they may claim not to speak English but most of them have some knowledge of the language.Below we have created a complete list of markets on the Costa del Sol by day. There are also flea markets on some days which sell some old Spanish items which you may find interesting.
