D'Antonellas Restaurant at Casares Apartments

Eating out when you are on holiday can be an important part of your enjoyment, so a bonus for any Costa del Sol Apartment holiday is a good restaurant within a few minutes walk.

Just across the road from the Casares del Sol Apartment, a mere 5 minute walk at most, is the D'Antonella Restaurant and Bar. Well decorated and furnished with a lovely terrace in sunny weather for drinking or eating outside looking over the countryside, mountains and exciting 1st hole of the Casares Golf course with its fairway across a lake.
The food served at D'Antonellas is spanish style with strong international influence, its good food, well presented and good service. They sometimes have daily special menus during the day which are good value for 2 or 3 courses if you don't mind eating before the evening. Or you can have a light snack at the bar or on the terrace with your drink. Well worth a visit and no need for a car.

Casares Panoramic Views

Like many towns and villages in Spain, Casares was originally the old traditional white washed village in the hills, built on steep slopes and impossible terrain, definately one of the places to see near Casares del Sol.
As time went by the land down from the hillside of Casares became a more attractive place to build, being flatter and near the beach. This video is from Casares white villagae in the hills looking over the surrounding area. Fabulous panoramic 360' views of Casares from website of photographer Jan Koehn - Panoramic pictures and virtual tours of Spain - very special.

Driving around Casares, Costa del Sol, Spain

You can stay at Casares del Sol in Costa del Sol apartment without a car, there are buses just 5 minutes walk away and a taxi rank at a similar distance so its not essential to have a car, and there are several bars and resturants within 5 minutes walk. But to get the most from a holiday in the Casares area of Costa del Sol in Spain, you should really hire a car.  It means you can explore the area much easier, up into the hills and mountains just 10 minutes drive or down along the coastal road to the various beaches dotted along the Mediterreanan Sea coast, Duquesa beach, Sotogrande beach, and onto La Linea beach at the base of Gibraltar.
And with a car you can explore the local resturants more easily. But driving rules in Spain re drinking and driving at more strict than in the UK. In Spain there is no tolerance of any drinking pre driving, zero tolerance. So becareful. The Spanish do random testing sometimes, so be warned. So if you want a drink, use the taxis.
A car allows you to really explore the Costa del Sol area of Andalucia with places to see near Casares del Sol. A day in Casares old town in the hills. A day on Estapona beach. A night out in Puerto Banus. A days sailing from Gibraltar. All these days out are very close to Casares del Sol and easily done with a car.
