Gardener in Arroyo de la Miel
In the busy heart of Benalmádena, we look after communal gardens, terraces and chalet gardens, from the town centre up to the slopes of the mountain.
Arroyo de la Miel is the largest and busiest part of Benalmádena. It lies between the old village on the hill and the coast. Here you find the Tívoli World amusement park, the train station and the cable car that climbs Mount Calamorro, with Parque de la Paloma close by.
Most people live in apartments and townhouses with terraces and communal gardens. Higher up, towards the mountain, there are chalets with their own gardens on sloping plots. That gives a mix of jobs: shared lawns and hedges, pots on terraces, and private gardens that need regular care.
As a gardener in Arroyo de la Miel, we offer garden maintenance for communities of owners, care of terrace plants, hedge trimming and holiday watering. We also clear overgrown plots, for example before you rent out or sell a property.

Gardening in Arroyo de la Miel: terraces and shared gardens
Terrace plants in pots dry out fast in summer, especially on sunny upper floors. Communal hedges grow quickly in this mild climate and need regular trimming to keep paths and entrances clear. On the slopes towards the mountain, empty plots fill with weeds and dry grass by early summer.
- Water terrace pots early in the morning or in the evening in summer.
- Group pots together so they shade each other and lose less water.
- Trim communal hedges two to four times a year.
- Clear dry grass on plots before the hot months.
- Arrange holiday watering before you leave, not once the plants are dry.
