Restaurants

Sollo Restaurant
Michelin Star

Sollo Restaurant is much more than a culinary experience: it is a statement of principles. Led by chef Diego Gallegos, known as the Caviar Chef, this temple of sustainability redefines haute cuisine with an ecological, innovative approach deeply committed to the environment.Its offerings are based on river fish and self-produced vegetables, grown through aquaponics systems that allow total control of the food cycle, from the source to the plating. The result: unique, creative, and honest dishes that elevate products like the African catfish, tilapia, tench, or pacu, along with fresh and local ingredients such as tomato, eggplant, or pepper. Sollo is an ode to natural and responsible cooking, a pioneering concept that merges technological innovation and culinary sensitivity to offer an experience that nourishes both the palate and the conscience. A sustainable gem on the Costa del Sol.

Discover Fuengirola

Fuengirola, right on the Costa del Sol, has Roman roots: it was once known as "Suel," a thriving trading post. Under Muslim rule it became "Fojayrol," growing into a farming and fishing village. After the Reconquista in the 15th century it joined the Christian kingdom, remaining a small, quiet town until the 1960s, when tourism transformed it thanks to its climate, beaches, and proximity to Málaga. Today it's a popular destination known for its lively nightlife, varied food scene, and appealing marina, blending traditional charm with modern tourist comforts. All this makes Fuengirola an ideal place to live, balancing quality of life, services, and a welcoming atmosphere.
