San Pedro Holidays

The charming, untouched pueblo of San Pedro is conveniently located about five miles west of the cosmopolitan sophistication of Marbella, and a short drive from the rugged natural beauty of the Sierra de Ronda mountains. Steeped in history and richly cultural, San Pedro offers a quiet, unspoiled charm in the heart of the Costa del Sol.

San Pedro holidays are very popular with both couples and families alike who come here for the relaxed pace of life, excellent weather, abundance of things to do, great food and ease of access. If you want a break away from the stress of work without going broke, then a holiday in San Pedro is perfect for you!

Hot, dry summers and mild winters define the climate of the Costa del Sol, so expect glorious sunshine much of the year and highs of around 30° Celsius in the summer. If you are planning on coming on holidays to San Pedro in the spring, summer or autumn make sure you bring your sunscreen!
