This peaceful penthouse apartment is ready to welcome you on a happy holiday to beautiful Benalmádena. Modern and fresh, it's located just a stone's throw from the wonderful beach, where you'll find sunbeds to rent and a crystal-clear sea that's ideal for swimming and surfing. You'll get a great view of the sea from inside the apartment, with floor-to-ceiling windows that let the outside in. You can sit by the window at the dining set, and tuck into tasty tapas dishes while you admire the ocean views. Head outside and you'll find your own private terrace with some lovely outdoor seating, that gives you a full view of the beach as well as the surrounding town – the perfect place for sipping on cocktails at sunset. Head downstairs and take a dip in one of the three communal outdoor pools to cool off from the Spanish sunshine – and you can let kids splash around in the shared children's pool.
