Castillo de la Duquesa’s Plaza Miramar has recently undergone extensive re-modelling, at a cost of 26,000 euros, which culminated in an official inauguration ceremony yesterday.

The Manilva Suns American football team got their league campaign off to the perfect start last weekend with a 26-21 victory over the Portuguese side, Lisbon Navigators.

The Councillor responsible for Manilva’s Infrastructure and Public Works department, Mario Jiménez, recently met with representatives from the Mancomunidad de Municipios de la Costa del Sol Occidental, to discuss a number of infrastructure projects proposed for the local municipality.

Manilva's Councillor for Tourism, Commerce, Promotion and Image, Augusto Gil, held a presentation today to unveil Manilva's stand for this year's FITUR exhibition to be held later this week.

The La Colonia children’s playground, next to the nursery in Sabinillas will be closed from 22nd January for repairs and improvements.

According to the Councillor for Public Works, Mario Jiménez, these works will take several weeks, during which those areas being worked on will be closed.

The councillor has expressed his apologies for any inconvenience, but would point out that the works are being carried out for the safety of the park’s users, and as such would ask that people respect the barriers whilst the work is being carried out.
