Benalmádena is three different places under one name, and March is the month to drive round them in turn. The Pueblo sits on the slope, an old village of narrow streets. Arroyo de la Miel below is an ordinary town with the train station. The Costa is the seafront and the marina. Prices, noise and the walk to the sea differ across the three, and the listings call them all the same thing.
