A CHIRINGUITO burnt down in an arson attack is to reopen this week.

Now, after a huge refurb, the beach bar will reopen this Thursday, one of its owners told the Olive Press.

“The style of the building is the same, but it’s more open-plan,” he explained.

“We are just waiting for the town hall to finally OK it.”

The restaurant is part owned by Maria Bravo, the friend of Longoria.

Dramatic footage showed the beach club, which is popular with expats, erupt into flames in February, with black smoke billowing for miles.
