Father Christmas Galaxia by: Clare
Last year I took my two boys to the Santas Grotto in Galaxia in Guadalmina. I wasn´t expecting much as most of the ones I had been to were not a patch on what we get in the UK, but I have to say the did an amazing job. It was really magical. They had a proper Grotto with a forest and a little wooden house, with lots of lights and Father Christmas was lovely. I am sure they will do it again this year, I really hope so as mine are already talking about going!

Marbella Town Hall also gives children the opportunity to meet Father Christmas in the lovely Old Town district of Marbella. Every year they set up a grotto where Santa meets with the children who tell him what they would like for Christmas or Los Reyes (Kings Day) and he passes out sweets for all the kids.

Weekdays 6:00pm-8:30pm. Saturdays 11:00am-1:30pm and 6:00pm-8:30pm. Sundays, December 24, and holidays 11:00am-1:30pm.
