SEA VIEW JARDINES DEL MAR I: apartment with communal pool 300 m from the beach, in Oropesa del Mar (Costa de Azahar), for 6 people. You arrive in Oropesa del Mar, in the Marina D'Or area, with the sand just a few minutes' walk away. This 65 m2 apartment is part of the "Jardines del Mar I" building, built for spending your days between the communal pool and the beach without needing the car. Inside you'll find plenty of room for a family or a group of friends, with two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, and from the terrace you can see the sea and the mountains. INSIDE THE HOUSE. The living-dining room is the heart of the apartment: a double sofa bed, a table big enough for everyone to eat together, and a flat-screen TV with digital channels. The kitchen, with its own office area, is well equipped so you don't have to rely on restaurants every day: oven, microwave, dishwasher, freezer, electric coffee maker, kettle, toaster and ceramic hob. Both bedrooms are on the ground floor: one double (135x190 cm bed) and another with two single beds (90x190 cm each), ideal if you're traveling with kids or need to keep the adults apart. Of the two bathrooms, one has a bathtub with bidet and the other a hydromassage shower, both with hairdryers. A washing machine, iron, TV and wifi internet round out the amenities, though it's worth knowing that heating doesn't reach every room. OUTSIDE. The north-facing terrace comes with garden furniture, perfect for breakfast outdoors or lingering after dinner, and from there you take in views of the sea and mountains. The building has a lift, so you won't be hauling beach bags up the stairs. For all residents to share, there's a 20x10 m communal pool, with depths between 70 and 230 cm, open from May to October. Parking is covered, with a numbered space (354/418) for two cars, right in the building. WHERE YOU ARE. The apartment sits on the outskirts of Oropesa del Mar, in the Marina D'Or district, on a busy main road that gets plenty of sun. The sandy beach is 400 m away and the sea just 300 m, so you can go back and forth several times a day without a second thought. There's a restaurant 400 m away, a supermarket at 1 km, and the train station at 4 km. If you're bringing your own car, the motorway is 900 m away and the main road just 300 m; there's also a nightclub 300 m away for anyone who wants to go out at night without going far. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW. The apartment is non-smoking and family-friendly. It has air conditioning, though heating doesn't reach every room, worth keeping in mind if you're traveling in the low season. The communal pool is only open between May and October. The covered, numbered parking spot means you won't be hunting for a space when you arrive, and the lift makes getting around with luggage easier. Tourist license AT-34961-CS.
