Dazzling coastal vistas take all the glory at this newly-built and oh-so-intimate apartment complex perched in the hills above Torrox Costa and Nerja and just 1.2 kilometres from the beach. Expertly designed to max out its showstopping setting from angles, spending lazy days chasing the sun on the two expansive, private terraces wrapping around this home. Time to beat the heat? Then the shared, stylish pool for cooling dips is just the ticket, or head back to the privacy of your apartment to stretch out with a good book and glass of something crisp (your host can organise champagne on ice to be delivered). With its cool Scandi vibes and restful neutral interiors, you can’t help but feel relaxed inside this home. And with both bedrooms commanding the same glorious sea vistas, there’s no need to tussle for the best room here.

When the sea finally lures you in, pack up a beach bag and blaze a trail down to the beaches of Nerja or Torrox Costa (both just a short drive away) – there’s a sandy cove begging you to lay down a beach towel. And should thoughts turn to tasty plates of espetos and Cabrito a la nerjena, the tapas bars and authentic restaurants of Nerja’s chic Old Town won’t disappoint. Just be sure to make it home for dusk – the view of the setting sun is unmissable.
