Accessibility
Not ideal for anyone with mobility problems as there are steps down to the house and within it.
Outside
The estate has a community pool with loungers and chairs, set in gardens.
Coast/Beach
The Playa del Cristo is only a few minutes stroll away, with two charming chiringuitos, inexpensive parasols etc, and a gently sloping walk into the sea. On the other side of the marina Estepona's main award-winning beach - ten mins walk - encircles the bay, with many chiringuitos and lifeguards.
Golf
There are 20 golf courses within 20 minutes drive of the house, and many more beyond. They range from the international Valderama at Sotogrande to the local Estepona course, easier and much less costly. A new 9-hole golf course has now opened at the back of Estepona.
Skiing
Skiing in winter is two hours away in the Sierra Nevada near Granada.
Travel
Car hire is recommended, if only to get from the airport, as the taxi costs more than the week's hire.
Distances
The fleshpots of Puerto Banus are only 15 mins away, Marbella 25 mins, Gibraltar 40 mins. Back into the sierras are the historic towns of Granada and Sevilla, two hours drive. No car is needed just to enjoy the beaches and facilites of the marina.
Further details
The marina has its own shops, restaurants and cafes; an English doctor holds surgery next door to the house; Estepona has its own food market each day, its large travelling market on Wednesdays, and its clothes and leather market every Sunday in the marina. Banks and chemists are 200 metres away.
