My wife and I booked 3 weeks in Malaga so my 2y old son can get some warm weather and sunny time because of health issues.We're booked from 28th of November to 18th of December in a suburb of Malaga. Should we cancel even at a loss? How fucked is the south and will we have a good time when spainbros are busy rebuilding their country? https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c99ry7x925eo
Isn't Valencia the one that got really fucked? Malaga seems fine.
>>2729604I'm hearing some stuff about Malaga as well.https://www.surinenglish.com/malaga/have-nothing-left-have-nothing-but-the-20241030072807-nt.htmlhttps://www.surinenglish.com/malaga/highspeed-train-from-malaga-madrid-derails-near-20241029161943-nt.html#vtm_modulosEngag=mod-rel:surinenglish:noticia:1:cmp:2-nothttps://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj9n1zdvkyzo>A British man has died hours after being rescued from his home on the outskirts of Málaga, Spain, after intense flooding hit parts of the country, local officials say.
I wouldn't go. I love Malaga, but why risk it? I'd try to negotiate with the hotel and see if they'll do a credit for a different hotel somewhere else. Where are you flying from? You could do Portugal, Malta, Greece, Cyprus.
even without the floods why would you go to that shithole.
>>2729849You've never been. Malaga is a fantastic city. The nightlife is amazing. The food is fantastic. The city center is gorgeous and immaculately clean. The women are insanely hot. It's safe. It's on the beach. It has one of the best cathedrals in Europe. There are roman ruins, a big ass mountain you can climb with a castle on top, palaces, Arab ruins. It's one of my favorite cities in Europe. But I wouldn't go after this flood. Too much risk and it'll be a bummer.
>>2729822We booked a penthouse via air bnb. Flying from Hamburg. The problem is we're probably looking at significant losses if we cancel now. 2 Spanish guys at /pol/ said the floods missed Malaga and it's gonna be safe to fly.
My mom lives in Malaga. She say is fine there, it rained but not that much and no one died, at least in Benalmadena. I am also going in December for almost the whole month. As a native Spanish speaker I absolutely hate Malagueños and they way they are but damn do I need some sun and free accommodation is just the cherry on top.
>>2729936If you already paid, you're kind of locked in. I'll tell you a secret about Malaga, these best 50 euro you can spend in the whole city is at Av. de Velázquez, 24.
>>2729857>nightlife!The hustle and bustle of the city! Nobody wants to go to gay bars like you, faggot>le food!All of southern spain has fire food>muh wymin are hot!All euro women are insanely hot>safeKek sure dawg, niggercity in costa sol is “safe”.>le history! Le ruins!Like every single place in europe, retard.>it’s on le beach!The gayest point in this post. EVERYWHERE has the beach.You sound like a queer going for the gay bars, or a paid travel agent advertising that shithole. Which is it?
>>2730774What happens there
>>2729857>nightlifeImagine thinking this isn't a detriment
>>2730774Fellow trans enjoyer
>>2731228You think good nightlife in a beach city is a detriment? You sound like a good time.
>>2729572>>2729857>>2729857I live in Malaga and the floods might not have hit the city directly, but it definitely was the straw that broke the camel's back for me. The high speed train to Madrid that departs from here literally got derailed from fucking rail and the sewers are third world tier and there is an unbearable sewer smell because they refuse to clean them up. The people are low IQ and fake as fuck, there's a lot of xenophobia lately and all of my foreign friends complain they get worse service than the locals, and there are only two seasons: humid 40C or humid gloomy cloudy windy 10C that might as well be the fucking UK.If you wanna do anything interesting, you have to either drive to Fuengirola or Marbella, because the center has like 10 clubs that play shit music and that's it. Bustling nightlife my ass."Muh beach" is not even a good reason, the """sand""" here is nothing more than fucking ground stones.And sure, the food is great, but I'm not making a shithole my home just because of food.
>>2731509>xenophobiaThey're openly hostile to the hordes of African immigrants and somehow that makes Malaga a bad city? Sounds like the right attitude to me if they want to keep the city safe. I was just in Malaga weeks ago. You're either lying about the nightlife, or lying about being from Malaga. The nightlife was amazing. Every cafe and bar was full. There were hundreds of people outside hanging out. The girls were 10/10. This was from Friday night.
>>2731651I should have used a different word then. I meant tourismphobia, they take more and more African niggers every goddamn year, but they see a White person and they see them with disdain and almost do the walking ATMs treatment third world countries do. Some hostels and Airbnbs in the center are starting to get vandalized too.Also, cool, you showed plaza de Uncibay, the place where one of the almost FIVE (wow!) clubs in the entire city is, and it's one of the many that only plays nigger music. If your idea of nightlife is seeing people walk, paying for overpriced drinks in tourist traps, having very few choices for actually enjoying the night, then sure, Malaga is le hecking reddit chungus. But for people over 20 years old it's a fucking boring place with WAY less options and less women than Barcelona, Paris, NYC, Medellin. Osaka or even fucking Shanghai.
>>2731714Your spirit animal is Elliot Roger. If you aren't looking for hot women, cocktail bars, pubs, clubs, live music and thousands of people hanging out, what would constitute good nightlife?
>>2731718Your post was directed to >>2731133, retard. I like hot women, cocktails bars, pubs, clubs, live music and thousands of people hanging out, and Malaga is an overrated subpar place for it with third world standards and shit weather. I already gave you a few options for cities who are far superior in that sense.Fuck's sake, grow up, learn to read and get some standards.
>>2729572damn shame
>>2729572Cancel. Im from Spain and even if it doesn't rain, it won't be that sunny. Why would you book december dates if you wanted your 2yo to enjoy the Sun??? Go from late March to early October.
I think you'd be luckier to have good weather in Galicia on the summer than on Malaga in the winter. I don't know if I would cancel... But its kind of a shitty time of year to go there.
>>2731509>there's a lot of xenophobia latelyGood. Seems like the place will get slightly better once you leave too.
>>2735970+1. That dude sucks. Malaga has great nightlife and amazing women. He does have Elliot Roger vibes.
