Location — San Pedro Beach and Promenade
The apartment is in the Castiglione complex in Nueva Alcántara, the beachside neighbourhood of San Pedro de Alcántara. San Pedro beach is about 200 metres away, a short walk through the complex and across the road. The beach is wide and generally uncrowded. The sand is darker and slightly coarse, typical of this stretch of the Costa del Sol, and in some areas the shoreline can be slightly stony when entering the water, so aqua shoes can be useful. The promenade runs along the seafront for several kilometres and connects directly to Puerto Banús to the east. Many guests are surprised that you can walk all the way there along the seafront. It is lined with beach restaurants (chiringuitos), cafés, cycle lanes and playgrounds. Walking there along the promenade takes around 30–40 minutes. San Pedro itself is quieter than Puerto Banús and is a proper Spanish town with a year-round community. Local restaurants and supermarkets are within walking distance of the complex. It is a good base if you want easy access to the Costa del Sol without being in the middle of it. The area has a typical Mediterranean climate with long warm summers and mild winters. Spring and autumn are often particularly good for walking, golf and outdoor dining. Winter can bring cooler and occasionally rainy spells, which surprises some guests.

- Bedroom 4: This studio bedroom has its own entrance and en-suite bathroom. It is not internally connected to the main apartment. Guests need to exit the front door to reach it. It works well for adult guests who want some independence, but is not suitable for young children sleeping separately from the main group. Worth knowing before you book, and if you are not sure whether the layout suits your group, just get in touch.
The Castiglione Complex
Castiglione is one of the original beachside developments in Nueva Alcantara, well-established and generally quiet. The low-rise, whitewashed buildings are designed in a traditional Andalusian style and set within mature tropical gardens. The buildings are low-rise and there are no lifts. The apartment is on the first floor. If mobility is a consideration for anyone in your group, it is something to bear in mind before booking. The apartments are a mix of holiday homes and permanent residences, giving it a neighbourhood feel rather than a resort feel. The beach, the promenade and the nearest restaurants and cafes are all a short walk away. Castiglione is a no-party urbanisation. Guests are asked to be considerate of neighbours with regard to noise.
Pool Season: The pool is open all year around. Please note that there is no lifeguard on duty.

Golf
The apartment is also popular with golf groups. Guadalmina Golf Club is about 4km away and there are several other courses within easy reach along this stretch of the Costa del Sol. The apartment has space for a group of 8 comfortably, and Thomas can help with local arrangements if needed.

"We were a group of 8 friends on a golfing holiday for one week. Thomas organised all we needed and we had a great time." — Geir Arne, Norway
Who Stays Here
The apartment suits groups and families well. The space and the rooftop mean people can be together without it feeling crowded.

Several guests come back to the same apartment year after year.
