General overview
Sip a Rioja or Verdejo as you watch the moon rise over the Alboran Sea and the ever-changing views of the Rock of Gibraltar from our 450 square-foot terrace. Our two-bedroom, 1.5 bath apartment is light, airy, and open, with a queen master bedroom and guest room with two beds. Estepona's marina area is just a 20-minute walk along the beach or a short drive, and a 10-minute drive takes you to one of Spain's most charming old towns, packed with restaurants and shops. Enjoy some tennis, cool off in the spacious community pool, take a dip in the sea, or go off exploring. Beautiful hiking trails and a number of the Costa del Sol's iconic whitewashed hillside villages are right in our backyard.
The space
The master bedroom has a king-size bed and a view of the sunrise. Our guest room has both queen and twin beds.
Our kitchen is well-equipped (we love to cook and have all the supplies). We also have a Weber gas grill on the wrap-around terrace and an outdoor dining table for warmer months.
Guest access
We are on two floors with the bedrooms and full bath downstairs and the living room/dining area/kitchen and terrace upstairs on the entry level. Our apartment is on the 6th floor with an elevator, and there is open parking in the gated lot outside.

Neighbourhood
You can find plenty to do without venturing out, but you will want to see what's nearby. Lovely Marbella and Puerto Banus are a half-hour away and the whitewashed village of Casares (named for Julius Caesar, who supposedly sought healing in its waters) is 25 minutes inland. A number of other whitewashed mountain villages are an hour away or less. Historic Ronda (featured by Hemingway) is also about an hour away, and Sevilla and Granada are an easy two-hour drive on major highways. In winter, there is great skiing in Spain's highest mountains, the Sierra Nevada, about 40 minutes north of Granada.
Getting to my home
We are in between the airports of Malaga (one hour away) and Gibraltar (45 minutes). We'd advise renting a car for easy access to services and attractions.
Nearest airport
Malaga and Gibraltar
Getting around
A short drive or 20-minute walk along the beach or street takes you into town.

We are a fit, young-at-heart couple in our 60s with grown children who view ourselves as citizens of the world. We travel for both work (as tour leaders) and pleasure, relishing the opportunity to meet new people and experience different cultures. Skiing, hiking, kayaking, scuba diving, and cooking are just a few of our varied interests. Spain is our new passion and we look forward to sharing our discoveries with our future guests.
People Like Us is the world's most trusted home exchange community. We believe in sharing, trust, generosity, respect, communication, equality, cooperation, honesty, hospitality, friendship, flexibility and adventure. We take pride in our homes and we care about the environment in which we live: our village, city, country and our planet. We care about the ethos of home exchange and we do it because we love the experience and the friendships that it generates.
Sunrises and sunsets from our windows and terrace are often spectacular!

The Rock of Gibraltar from our terrace, zoomed in.
The coastal Sierra Bermeja range looms to nearly 5000 feet (1492m) behind our complex. At the summit are fabulous views, hikes, and a great little restaurant.

Casares (about 20 minutes away), one of many beautiful and historic whitewashed villages nearby.
Magical Ronda (about an hour’s drive away) is among Spain’s most exciting destinations, well worth a visit while you’re here.
