Description La María: Málaga

This Caleta beachfront penthouse is calling all sun-worshippers. With the bay of Málaga this close to your doorstep, dropping your bags and heading straight out the beach is convenient, but the proximity also means palm tree-lined views from the terrace seating. The home unfolds across two floors, and it's worth noting little ones might find the spiral suitcase challenging. Most bedrooms include an open plan en suite with a shower cubicle tucked away in a corner, but there is also a family bathroom if you're a little shy. A built-in bar and home cinema add an exclusive touch to this bright and modern space.

Home truths:
*Though a car isn't essential, you'll find parking for two cars here should you choose to hire one. *It's possible you may hear some noise from neighbours during your stay, as well as noise from the street . *Little ones might need a hand on the internal spiral staircase. *Some of the double beds may be made up of two single mattresses pushed together. *Your host can provide a cot for free. You'll need to request them in advance. *You won't find a welcome hamper here, so we'd recommend packing some bits and bobs to get you started. The nearest supermarket is a short walk away. *Stag and hen parties – or any other groups of guests under the age of 21 – are not allowed here.
