What a fantastic apartment.
Having stayed in Malaga before but without children we wanted an apartment that offered city living that was close to the beach but also lots of outdoor space. This apartment did not let us down. The location is on the edge of the ‘semi-pedestrianised’ old town and literally a 5 minute walk to the centre of it. There are supermarkets (Carrefour & Dia) within 300m so we had no need for a car. Our teenagers loved the buzz of the town with restaurants, bars and shops so close by.
Most days we walked about a mile to the beach (towels provided by apartment and 5-7 Euros each per sunbed) but there is a taxi rank close to Dia supermarket if needed. Very clean, safe beaches with loads of bars, restaurants, supermarkets etc.
The apartment itself was excellently appointed with 3 extremely comfortable airconned bedrooms and a brilliant bathroom. Because you are on the 3rd floor on the inside of the block we had zero noise and slept wonderfully. The kitchen had a huge fridge and freezer which isn’t usual in our opinion and had everything you needed.
What made the apartment so special was the roof patio. The spiral staircase takes some getting used to and our kids are teenagers so we didn’t need to worry but I’m not sure how practical with youngsters. Once on the top it’s huge and secluded offering 4 sunbeds, table & 6 chairs plus plenty of shade and wonderful potted plants all around. Great place to laze around on a morning or evening (as we were at the beach in the day) and we ate up there most days. Loved seeing the cathedral dome lit up at night.
Overall this apartment is definitely a 5* for us and will definitely come back.
