It is located in a very residential area with a well cared for garden and swimming pool, and beside the old part of Los Boliches fishing village, with low buildings and pedestrian streets. Near all ammenities, golf clubs, lots of restaurants, etc.
Los Boliches is a small fishing village 20 minutes from Malaga, connected by an efficient train service, which you can get 5 minutes walk from the apartment. The same train takes you to the airport.

barrio


Explanation:
I believe it is a misspelling of BARRIADA, another word for barrio. Because it says the traditions are shown in its fishing fleet and streets.

It is possible that BARRIDA is a localism or Andaluz dialect for barrio.
