On leaving the airport follow signs for Malaga Centre - left hand lane as you climb out of the Airport grounds. Continue towards Malaga for 5-7 minutes until you see signs for the E15/A7 Motorway - direction Granada/Motril/Almeria - on your right. Get on to the E15/A7 and travel east for 25-30 minutes until you reach Exit 272 (Salida 272 - Velez Malaga/Torre del Mar). Come off here and go right round the roundabout onto the A356 - direction Colmenar/Alhama de Granada. It is now a straight run of about 15 minutes until you see the lake on your right. Continue over the dam and take the first turning on your left to LOS ROMANES; this is a funny little turning where you have to go right to turn left. After just 400 METERS/2 MINUTES drive you will see the first development of houses up on the hillside on your left with a large sign for EL MIRADOR DEL EMBALSE; turn left up here and our house is the 4th villa - No. 5, Casa Ianda. Journey time approximately 50 minutes.
