Tucked away in the heart of Estepona, this studio apartment is an ideal base for a coastal retreat for two. This home is all about the location for us. Surrounded by shops and restaurants, sampling the local cuisine comes easily here, with popular dishes including pescaíto fried fish and sardine skewers. Fancy a beach day? A five-minute stroll will take you to La Rada, where you can let the Mediterranean Sea rush over your feet or simply soak up the Spanish rays from the sand.
