The apartment is on a hill in Estepona, about 10-15 minutes walk down hill to the old town, beach promenade and the nearest grocery store. The apartment is beautifully decorated, modern and light. The kitchen (and bathrooms) is very well equipped- I cooked Christmas lunch for 8 with a little bit of planning - not many rentals I’ve had before is as well equipped. I’d have liked a few extra tea towels to swop over (won’t cost a fortune)/ dishwasher and washing machine tablets and bin bags so I didn’t run out within 24 hrs. The terrace is beautifully decorated and we enjoyed many afternoons relaxing in the sun and breakfast out there. I didn’t mind the walk to town, and the parking was safe and secure. Super access to main travel routes from the apartment. The complex is clean, well maintained and peaceful.

There was a lot of building work going on in the area so the surrounding environment isn’t exactly aesthetic. The damage deposit (50% of the cost of my rental charge) is only returned after 30 days which seems a bit ridiculous, seeing that damage can be assessed within 48 hours of leaving the accommodation. I also think the property can benefit from electronic key mechanisms on arrival. I was told it would cost me euro 35 to have the physical keys delivered to the property and not picked up first from their office. Traveling with an 84 year old, I wasn’t up for multiple stops on check-in.

A modern contemporary apartment which was very comfortable.

Those that may be infirm may find the steep walk a challenge.
