Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport shuttle and private transfer options

Shared shuttles and public buses from Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport run to the main towns on fixed timetables. They are the cheapest option for a single traveller with light luggage, but they stop at a terminal or square, not at your hotel, and depart when scheduled rather than when your flight lands.

A private transfer is the door-to-door alternative: the driver meets you at arrivals, loads your luggage and drives straight to your hotel in Marbella, Nerja and Granada or any of 3 destinations. The price is per vehicle from £81, so for two or more travellers it is usually close to the shuttle cost per person.

Late-night arrivals, families with children and groups with a lot of luggage are the typical reasons travellers switch from the shuttle to a private vehicle.
