In the heart of Fuengirola's Old Town, this apartment is just 100m from the sandy 8km-long beach. It's ideal for families with a twin single bedroom, double sofa bed, and plenty of living space to sprawl out and relax. Our favourite spot is out on the private patio, with complete privacy and comfy furniture. While the kitchen is very small, you'll find plenty of Spanish restaurants and tapas bars on your doorstep. The designs aren’t so inspiring, but it's modern and practical, with everything you need for a relaxing coastal getaway.

Home truths
At full occupancy, two people will be sleeping on a double sofa bed in the living area.
Parking in Fuengirola can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible.
We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals. That said, you'll find some of the area's best restaurants close by.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot for free. You'll need to request it in advance.
