APARTMENT WITH COMMUNAL POOL IN ESTEPONA (COSTA DEL SOL) — up to 4 people You arrive at Cortijo del Mar and the first thing you notice are the trees surrounding the resort, built in 2011 and designed so life unfolds among gardens and terraces. This 93 m2 apartment is on the ground floor, with direct access to a kidney-shaped communal pool that stretches alongside the lawn. It's a place with a knack for families looking for peace and quiet without giving up being close to the Costa del Sol, in the El Paraíso area. INSIDE THE HOUSE. You step into a bright living-dining room with TV and air conditioning, leading straight out to the terrace. Both bedrooms are on the ground floor: one double and one with two single beds, both with air conditioning. The custom-style kitchen has a ceramic hob, microwave, coffee maker and freezer — everything you need if you'd rather not rely on the resort restaurant. You have three bathrooms — one with a bathtub and two with showers — all with hairdryers, something you'll appreciate when there are several of you staying. There's a washing machine, iron and free wifi for anyone who needs to stay connected even on holiday. OUTSIDE. The terrace has its own garden furniture and views over the pool and communal garden, a good spot for your morning coffee before the heat sets in. The pool, 43 x 23 metres with a depth of between 100 and 210 cm, is open from 1 April to 15 October, 10:00 to 19:00, and has a separate children's area with an outdoor shower, so the little ones get their own space to splash around. Parking is in a garage with an assigned space, and the whole complex has monitored access. WHERE YOU ARE. The sea is 1.6 km away and Playa Salduna beach is 2.6 km away, while San Pedro de Alcántara town centre is 5 km away and Estepona 14 km; Marbella is 16 km away. Within the complex itself there's a restaurant and bar, and 500 metres away you'll find a shop, supermarket and another restaurant. The "El Pilar" bus stop is 800 metres away, and if you enjoy golf, the 18-hole course is just 2.4 km away. The marina is 9 km away. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW. The apartment does not allow smoking or groups of young people. A high chair and cot are available for babies, so travelling with small children isn't a problem.
