If you’re a fan of beautiful sea views and sprawling rooftop terraces, you’ll love this home we spotted on the outskirts of La Malagueta, one of our favourite destinations on Spain’s Costa Del Sol. Whether you’re here for a winter retreat or a dreamy summer getaway, this place has got you covered, boasting pristine interiors and plenty of outdoor space for eating, drinking, and being merry with your fellow guests. Start your day with a fresh cup of coffee in the Hawaiian-style gazebo, then slather on some sun cream and head upstairs to unwind by the pool. With an outdoor kitchen and bar at your disposal, we wouldn’t blame you if you wanted to spend all day up here but if you fancy a change of scenery, why not wander down to the beach for a spot of lunch by the sea? Then, when you’ve been fed and watered, head into Málaga’s Centro Histórico for an afternoon of sightseeing before making your way back home to watch the sun set over Andalusia’s golden rooftops, glass of wine in hand.
