Sleeps 4 (2 Bedrooms)

Salobrena is a pretty Moorish town right by the Mediterranean. It's surrounded by tropical plains and snow capped mountains can be seen from the beach! This very stylish 2 bed apartment sleeps 4 & has every modern convenience. Only 5 minutes to the beach & little tapas bars & restaurants. There is a grocery shop at the end of the street & the baker delivers crusty bread every morning! The unique sub-tropical climate makes this an ideal all year round holiday apartment. Come & sunbathe & ski on the same day! Amazing panoramic views from the swimming pool which is very private, being shared by just a handful of residents & one of only two pools in the whole of the historic quarter. Handy parking outside (a rarity in the old town!). All in all a great apartment, well located with an important history of happy guests! Please be sure to visit our website the Link is at the bottom of this page. There you will find a wealth of information on the area & of course all those great reviews!

About the owner
Hi, I am Jayne and I bought our apartment in Salobrena in 2004. I have lived in our beautiful villa in Otura, Granada since 2005. Of course both our properties didn't always look like the photos...ask me to show you the before photos...!! But location, location, location they say...so I learned how to plaster, and lay bricks, and paint. And I thought I was coming to Spain for an easy life. Would I do it again? Never! Was it worth it? Oh yes! And all our guests seem to think so too. If you have any questions about the apartment or the villa, and the surrounding area, or just simply would like a little more information about this beautiful area of Andalucia, please just contact me, I would be happy to help. Thanks for looking.
Year purchased: 2004
