"I was helping out at the Lions Club of La Cala de Mijas Spring Fair today and ButimParque is a great venue. The Ayuntamento take a very positive position, providing all the tables and chairs and sending representatives and cameras to capture it all. Lots of different food and craft stalls as well as all the Lions stalls and fashion show. There was musical bingo, entertainment from singers and dancers with the local kiosk/cafeteria on hand for any other refreshments. A beautiful day, in a beautiful place for a fantastic and worthwhile cause."
Hugh Williams
"It’s a Bruce clean park close to the boardwalk, cafes and bars when it’s own cafe is closed. It is also close to supermarkets (Lidl less than 5 Minute walk away). If the play equipment would have been in the shade it would have gotten 5 stars"
