Terrace:
The south-west facing terrace is enormous with fabulous panoramic views. When visibility is good, you can see Gibraltar and the coast of Africa. There is no greater pleasure than sitting in the hot tub on the terrace with a glass of champagne, watching the sun go down!
The lounge and both bedrooms have sliding doors directly onto the terrace, which has three areas. One for dining/sunbathing, one with the luxury hot tub and gas barbecue, and one shady area for those scorching hot days!
Golf and tennis:
There are so many golf courses on the Costa del Sol, that the keen golfer will be spoilt for choice. The closest course to our apartment is Miraflores which is 2 minutes away by car and also has a driving range. Designed by Falco Nardi and opened in 1990, Miraflores Golf Club offers a real challenge to all levels of golfing ability. Each one of the 18 holes offers a different challenge. The course follows the natural contours of the valley and is much flatter than first appearance suggests.Tennis or squash players will love the Club del Sol which is also a couple of minutes away by car. The club has 12 excellent tennis courts, comprising of 9 brand new clay courts and 3 plexi-cushion courts. The club offers classes, mix-in games that offer you the chance to join in and play those of a similar standard or you can play in the doubles tournament that starts at 11 every Sunday. There are also 4 paddle tennis courts, 4 squash courts, a quality gym and changing rooms with sauna & jacuzzi.
Skiing:
We have skied for years and love skiing in the Sierra Nevada, which is a scenic 2 hour drive away from the apartment. It may not be as extensive as The Three Valleys or The Portes du Soleil, but the skiing is great with the village at 2100 metres and skiing up to 3300 metres.
