Sandwiched between Sierra Bermeja and the crystal-clear Alboran Sea lies the town of Estepona. Here, traditional Andalusian charm meets vibrant Costa del Sol living. Wander down to the beach for a bit of sand and surf – it's less than ten minutes on foot – or explore the winding network of old-world lanes in search of local markets, fantastic restaurants, and independent boutiques. You're also not far from Marbella and Málaga, perfect options for a day trip. In our opinion, the best place to soak up the rays is back at home. Head to the communal roof terrace, where a glittering shared swimming pool awaits. You can't beat the view from up here – craggy mountains, rolling sea, and white-washed houses are all stretched out before you – and we can't think of a better spot for an afternoon dip. Of course, your private balcony is lovely, too – pour yourself a glass of vino, sink into the outdoor sofa and watch the sunset. Take a breather from the seemingly endless sunshine inside. The glossy kitchen makes rustling up tapas easy, while the cushy white sofa invites you to rest your tired feet after a day of sightseeing. All the holiday must-haves are accounted for – comfortable bedrooms, sleek bathrooms and breezy social spaces – and there are a few extras in store, too, including access to an on-site fitness room and sauna.
