This villa is just over a kilometre from the beach, so it's a great base for exploring the Costa del Sol. Alongside easy access to the sea, you'll be well-placed to visit Nerja, Málaga, and the many postcard-perfect villages dotted around this region. Although this home is part of a complex with a communal leisure area, you won't have to share the sunny garden or the private pool. Sipping sangria on the patio will be second nature – and firing up the barbecue for dinner is a must. Children will also enjoy playing table football in the second-floor lounge, which boasts a lovely terrace to boot. Despite the fuss-free design, we think it's a practical option for family holidays.
Home truths: *Well-behaved dogs weighing up to 10kg are welcome to join you on request.
*While not all bathrooms are photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a free cot on request. As the pool is unfenced, children must be supervised at all times.
*This home is part of a larger complex of four villas, which all share a leisure area with a ping-pong table as well as the car park. We suggest hiring a car in this location, especially if you're keen to explore further afield.
*The decor of this home is very generic and not the most inspiring – we've let this one into our collection on account of the fantastic location in the Costa del Sol.
