Kevin, many thanks for the tour of Torremolinos. Brought back many memories as my wife's brother lived there. They have both passed away, and I couldn't bring myself to return since. But seeing your video now makes me want to go back to remember the good times. So I think I'll book a visit in the autumn. I like your style of presentation. And wasn't that nice that a couple of your viewers said hello?! Have subscribed. Vivian
I really enjoyed torromolinos, quite a few times I got the bus from marbella bus station. The la concha mountain is a great climb with stunning views too in marbella.
Cheers for the update went to Spain in the eighties, Saw Meatloaf and Whitesnake in a Concert in Barcelona, brilliant night. August is the holiday season for the locals and in Italy and some take the whole month off.
Didn't go for years, mainly because my wife thought it was for pensioners. Spotted a decent deal in Feb into March, loved it. Its like the rest of Spain used to be and you can still have a haggle in the shops which I enjoy.
Favorite place Kevin, Carihuela on the Torremolinos side of the Marina our fav, May & September for us, too hot July/August, luv these Costa del sol videos👍
Just subscribed! Happened to find your channel as I was researching southern Spain. We have booked a place for next March in Costa Blanca…most people we know go to Costa del Sol but we were drawn to Alicante after watching a few youtube videos. Right now I am going to watch your videos on Costa Blanco. Thanks for all the great information!
Hi Kev, I stayed in the Castillo Santa Clara apts in June just a 2 minute walk from Calle San Miguel....fantastic pool, very secure, lift down to beach, 24 hr reception...Airbnb...500euro for 7 days/nights....
Hi Kevin, I have been to Torremolinos quite a few times, my late Dad lived there for 20 years. I wonder if you have considered living there? Great videos mate.
Really great content mate. My wife and I fancied changing it up a bit but not straying from the tried and tested gems that are the Spanish costas. We were leaning towards Torremolinos or Benalmadena and thanks to your videos we've narrowed it down to having an argument over which of the two 😂👌
Me and a buddy went by interailing in 1981 for a month in Torremolinos. Oboy have it changed. Seen lots of videos from torremolinos. And only thing i recognized was the area around the train station. Guess that a lot changed since 42 years ago. Great videos. Greetings from a Swede !!
The lift to/from the beach level is effectively behind that Mulligan's Irish pub. If you go down the streets either side of it, ahead of you will be the lift. 50c charge. Excellent place for food and cocktails called Buddha bar beside it.
I'm scottish heritage but of all English I have the hardest time with a Scot speaking it. Love the sound of it Kevin, but pick up every third word. Your photography is stunning.
Been to Costa del sol many times its a lovely part of Spain,Spanish holidays at the moment I live in a Spanish town in almeria its like a ghost town at the moment ,love watching your videos brings back so many happy memories 😊
We spent a few days at the end of season there in late October,It was very quiet,but the weather was on our side.I actually bought a great leather handbag from one of those side streets,I haggled and saved about 20 euros on the original price..Thanks for the vlog Kevin
I just checked Hotel Torremolinos Centro for a booking starting October 30 and it was £50/night. That is a typical off season price for three star. Every hotel puts up its prices during a busy week so maybe that was it.
Kevin. Loved Costa Del Sol when we there in April. If in Benalmadena please go past the Marina along to the bars next to the beach and one called Dizzy Donkey. You can also get there from the road opposite side of the road from Mallarkeys. 😎
I go to ton 2 time a year 😊 for my holidays And its best ever ❤️ yes you are right can be expensive but good food and beer and people are so good there 😊
These next couple of weeks will be expensive wherever you stay. The weekend just past was the beginning of the Spanish holidaymaker influx, this next four weeks will be extremely busy (with prices to match). Malaga, which is close by, have their Ferias (fairs), one in town the other on the outskirts at the main fairground. Enjoy your stay wherever you might end up, Torremolinos, Benalmadena and Fuengirola are great places to holiday. Hope to see you around.
That's the market rate.....there's a lot of demand and don't forget that a lot of these smaller family based hotels were almost ruined during the lockdown. Many went under or had to sell out to the big chains. They're just trying to get something back. It'll return to normal I reckon next near......
Hi Kevin. I’ve been watching your TH-cam channel for a while now on and off. I’ve recently subscribed which I’m sure will help you to become a TH-cam celebrity, In the words of Derek Trotter : This time next year, I’m sure you know the rest 😊 keep up the good work pal. Regards Paul in Newark Nottinghamshire
Ah was only there three weeks ago miss the place already Definitely my favourite spot on the costa del sol We stayed at the Melia Hotel on the level was 3200 for the week with flights Mental money 😅
Was in nch hotel 2018 for Xmas,a nice place basic but very handy for the bars and restaurants,and it was 24dgs on Christmas Day 😎 marvellous,can't wait to visit again 👍🍷🍷🏴😎
Im looking just now for october and everywhere in Spain, Cyprus etc are all minimum 1800 for 2 people for a week all inclusive. Absolute disgrace I won't be back abroad if they are going to charge silly money.
Had a place in benalmadena for 15 years kevin and lived there,you sure picked a bad month for a cheap hotel you are lucky to get one.august is the main month for spanish holidays.
At the end of the video you wondered if mulligan's irish pub was new or not. Its not, in fact its been there for many years, ive been there lotta times with my brother in law. Nice pub
Nch used to be really cheap. Omg .. stopped Chrystal there few times .. . Was that bad was good.. only couple of nights . Staff were mint.. couldn't stay for a week 😊
Is it just me but I can't do with all these Irish bars I go to Spain for a bit of Spanish culture, I'm not being a snob and love going into Irish bars in Dublin but why do people have to make things home from home, good informative video though
Just started watching you seem a nice guy.unfortunatley I am scared of flying but you make it look good.all the best Mr Scotsmen...scottish myself that why I know your a good guy
Great wee Donna up the hill to the church,heaven area at Easter with the festivals.your gonnae walk doon or up Kevin . I’m guessing doon, how is the foot ?.still school holidays kevin😳thus dear €.

Love Torremolinos . Great prices , friendly staff in Irish pubs and hotel banjondello Is super
I really enjoyed torromolinos, quite a few times I got the bus from marbella bus station. The la concha mountain is a great climb with stunning views too in marbella.
We used to Holliday there about 30 years ago and no it doesn’t look like it’s changed that much. Mary seemed such a nice lady. Thanks Kevin.
Lovely Mary

Not bad !
@@ScotsmaninTenerife For both of us... aye Torremolinos is heaven
Been going 25 yrs sometimes 3 times a year, fantastic safe place.We stay in Carihuela and are regulars to Playa Delfin and Horno Beach Club
Which accommodation would you recommend?
Been there last year. It looked completely worn down and far past its former glory.
Hi Kevin, I have been to Torremolinos quite a few times, my late Dad lived there for 20 years. I wonder if you have considered living there? Great videos mate.
thanks got some more videos to come from there, my wife hates flying so not considered moving abroad again.

Lol thanks stay in the middle lol
Enjoying the video Kev
Hi Kevin, I heard you mention pride surely everyone is proud of who they are and flags they are represented by
You watched the whole video, and that's the only comment you can make!???
Watching on tv is deffo the best way, get to see Kevin on a 65 inch tele 😊
Me and a buddy went by interailing in 1981 for a month in Torremolinos.
Oboy have it changed. Seen lots of videos from torremolinos.
And only thing i recognized was the area around the train station.
Guess that a lot changed since 42 years ago.
Great videos. Greetings from a Swede !!
Thanks !

Thank you so much for some great videos. I just love watching them. Looking forward to see Costa del Sol. Best regards Lars Wraae 😊😊
Many thanks!

We've just come from Torremilinos stayed in Tent hotel it was lovely 😍
I'm heading to that very hotel tomorrow with a double sea room! Is the hotel food decent? And Is the bar 24 hours please?
I just come back from there 14:37
Very good videos well done to you and greetings from Ireland

Will be holidaying in Torremolinos for the first time on 9th september,so a good preview. Will try to check out some of the bars featured.
I enjoy your video's, great to get to see these places, from me in Irvine 😁😁😁
Carihuela is the place to be, lots of Apartments although not many hotels. Mediteranno Hotel is good
You should get yourself a nice little micro camper Kev ! Easy cheap living for the season 👍
Been to Costa del sol many times its a lovely part of Spain,Spanish holidays at the moment I live in a Spanish town in almeria its like a ghost town at the moment ,love watching your videos brings back so many happy memories 😊

You’re definitely famous in the Costa’s Kevin, and justly so. Great video 😊😊😊
Thank you! 😁
Lovely video.
Just to inform you that things have changed absolutely everywhere 🙄
It looks lovely there saint kev lol 😆
good one Kev thats why im staying there in Nov 3 nights for £54 hotel Carmen Teresa, keep em coming
Places to avoid on holiday, places with too many brits, dutch and germans 😂😂😂
Agree 100%
I disagree lol
Absolutely right! Brits from the North of England should not be allowed out of the country. Send them to Blackpool.
The Russians and chinese can be pretty awful too
@@ScotsmaninTenerifeI agree and I'm Spanish
till the end! ;)
Damn I miss Torremolinos.... and that's quite a shock
Great vdeo keep it up

Very true ta
Been many years since been there I stayed up from train station .got the lift down to beech
Really enjoying these vlogs 😊
Glad you like them!
Heyas Kev, ✔️👍👍👍5⭐ Cheers DougT
I was there just 2 weeks ago it's such a busy wee place it's nice
The stairs up from beach are a killer
Its shxte be honest .
Nice and relaxing 😎
Thanks, your video convinced me Torremolinos is a holiday destination to avoid. 😢
Lol
Hi Kevin good video again. I will be there next week.
Enjoy !

We were in town today Kevin . . not as busy as Fuengirola ,!!
Great to meet you Paul cheers I am in nerja today
Ah was only there three weeks ago miss the place already
Definitely my favourite spot on the costa del sol
We stayed at the Melia Hotel on the level was 3200 for the week with flights
Mental money 😅
Wow
@ScotsmaninTenerife the hotel was beautiful but the food was absolutely disgusting. Definitely not worth the money
In August all the factories courts etc are all closed and on holiday for the whole month so the hotels are all full during august
Costa del Sol...
used to be fun in the 70s...
really enjoy your videos
I appreciate that!
I spotted that alleyway to Hotel Krystal on google maps not too long ago and was really curious as to what was down there
It's better coming in from the side street I think but it's fine
Kevin great videos keep it lit
Appreciate it
Stayed in the hotel tarik 3 times. Love torremolinos.
Thanks for Watching !

Hi Kevin do you prefer Benidorm to torremelinos? And do you have a favourite Spanish resort thx pal?
Two very different resorts
Both different but I like live music so prefer benidorm
Which I better Benalmadena or Torremolinos?😊
Done a video on that here th-cam.com/video/53-kOVUuwzQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=GhUWpHUu3_UEDGkX
@@ScotsmaninTenerife thanks
Was in nch hotel 2018 for Xmas,a nice place basic but very handy for the bars and restaurants,and it was 24dgs on Christmas Day 😎 marvellous,can't wait to visit again 👍🍷🍷🏴😎
Very nice!
Creasing myself at the guy's pronunciation of Belmadina 🤣🤣🤣
August you will never get cheap hotels, the main Spanish holidays.
Im looking just now for october and everywhere in Spain, Cyprus etc are all minimum 1800 for 2 people for a week all inclusive. Absolute disgrace I won't be back abroad if they are going to charge silly money.
£900 a week all in sounds reasonable to me if it includes your air fare accommodation and all you can eat and drink. £125 a day or something.
Had a place in benalmadena for 15 years kevin and lived there,you sure picked a bad month for a cheap hotel you are lucky to get one.august is the main month for spanish holidays.
Yip crazy busy
Hi Kevin going September staying in Melia Costa del sol can’t wait 🇨🇮

You need to go to la cala down the coast it’s amazing
Too much concrete , and too hot .
HE SAID HE IS A SCOTSMAN and A "TERRY"?? Can anyone please tell me what a Terry is?
Nothing wrong with the British at least they no how to have a good time
