Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Situated 500 metres from La Cala beach, this ground-floor apartment is an ideal base for a Spanish adventure. With transport links nearby courtesy of its proximity to the A7, getting out and about to explore is a breeze – just be mindful that with such travel convenience comes some road noise, noticeable from the outdoor area. The communal pool and Jacuzzi are welcome additions, though it’s worth noting they’re situated next to the apartment’s private terrace, so this home may not suit those who prefer absolute privacy.

Home truths
We recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There's a private parking space for one car here.
Given the home's proximity to the A7, which provides great transport links, expect to hear some traffic noise throughout your stay. While this is more noticeable from the terrace and outdoor areas, light sleepers may still want to pack earplugs.
You'll have access to the on-site swimming pool and Jacuzzi here. They're shared with the building's other residents.
The private terrace at this home is next to the communal pool area, so privacy is limited.
The bedroom curtains here don't fully block out the sunlight.
Your host doesn’t accept bookings from groups of young people (under 25 years) at this home.
