Situated in the highly sought after Mi Capricho complex in Sitio de Calahonda this luxury frontline beach apartment has arguably the best location on the whole complex. Although this is a ground floor apartment it has an elevated situation and enjoys the benefit of a large gated community maintained private garden with panoramic views over the beautifully maintained sub-tropical gardens of the complex and the sea. It is therefore ideally suited for families with small children. It is one of only five apartments on the complex in which all bedrooms have views over the sea.
The apartment boasts three good size bedrooms with built in wardrobes, a large lounge/dining room, two bathrooms, a large fully equipped kitchen and a utility room. The master bedroom has a large en-suite bathroom with a bath and separate shower cubicle, There is a dedicated underground garage space close to a lift to the front door of the apartment. The south facing private garden has a 16 sq m decking area in full sun throughout the day and there is a 22 sq m covered terrace which enjoys afternoon sunshine and is perfect for al-fresco dining.
The complex has 24 hr security and the apartment has a video entrance doorbell linked to the main gate of the complex and the block entrance. The door to the garden has a keypad locking system for convenience.
There are two good sized pools in the communal gardens, one of which has a bar/restaurant open in the summer months. Sunbeds are provided. There is direct access to the beach through these gardens. On the edge of the complex literally below the apartment, is the beautifully situated and very popular bar/restaurant Chiringuito El Capricho with tables overlooking the beach. Sunbeds and parasols are provided on the beach by the restaurant.
There is a shopping complex within 5 minutes walking distance with a supermarket, a gift shop/newsagent, an office services facility and an Irish butchers shop as well as a number of bars and restaurants. There is a larger complex El Zoco within 10 minutes walking distance with another supermarket, more gift shops and also a hardware store. On the upper floor of this complex is a large open area with a large selection of restaurants to suit all tastes. 24 hour supermarket shopping is available 10 minutes away by car and there are hypermarkets in both directions 20 minutes away.
The location of the complex is approximately halfway between Marbella and Fuengirola on the A7. The apartment is sufficiently far away from the road not to be able to hear the traffic noise. Buses run frequently from outside the complex to both towns and the Fuengirola terminus links with the rail service to Malaga city and airport. The drive to the airport is approximately 30 minutes. The apartment enjoys the benefit of the newly constructed coastal boardwalk, which when completed will make it possible to walk or cycle along the coast for several kilometers to La Cala Mijas to the east or Cabopino to the west.
