This beautiful South facing apartment overlooks the fantastic pool and gardens as seen in the main photo
(The main photo was taken from the apartment balcony)

The apartment is idealy located if you have children as you can watch them swim & play in the garden and communicate easily with them from the balcony. We have 2 boys so we know how important this is.

The swimming pool has a fully trained lifeguard on duty for the main holiday season (End May, June, July, August and September)

We have UK TV!! Don't miss out on your favourite TV programmes, soaps and news while you are on holiday.

We also have Spanish TV!

We have unlimited high speed internet at no extra cost. Use as much as much as you like!

The apartment is just a 5 minute walk to the beach where you will find many chiringuitos that serve great food and drinks.

And its just a 2 min walk to the local mini market shop.

The apartment is South facing so the balcony gets the sun all day! Its absolutely lovely on the balcony catching the evening sun with a glass of wine.

The apartment is located on the 1st floor and has lift access from the underground car park where you will have your own private parking space.
Underground parking is essential as your car is kept nice and cool during the hot weather and it is also safe which is peace of mind.

The apartment itself - Has a lovely modern cosy home away from home feel. It is cool in the hottest of weather and warm enough in the winter.
Ranjan and Indira (our key holders) live and work at the complex and are never far away if for any reason you need an emergency contact.


It is important to us that you really enjoy your stay. We will make sure you are well looked after and your booking and check in is stress free.
We are always at the end of the phone if for any reason you need us.

Our apartment is fully registered for holiday lettings with the Juanta de Andalucia which is now a legal requirement in Spain.

We know the complex well as we have stayed many times. The apartment was as we expected clean and well maintained, with all the necessary equipment for our stay. The apartment overlooks the pool and gets the sun all day. Communication was good with Glen and Ranjan on site.

looking back
We have just returned from Alboran Hills having spent nearly 6 weeks there. The weather was kind mostly, 20 degrees on many days, some days 12 degrees Lots od sunshine and only 2days when it rained. WE flew into Gibralta and rented a car for a week to get to the apartment and discover the lay of the land. The apartment was very easy to find, getting into it was not easy as the door lock would not function. Anyway we sorted that out and survyed our home for the next few weeks. Minimalist is how I would describe the flat and its equipment. Fair to say that for a short holiday it was fine. When you are on an extended stay, you tend not to eat every day so the lack of cooking utensils became a frustration. We purchesed mugs and plates so we could eat our meals off a flat surface rather tghan the bowls provided. WE walked to duquessa and Abinallas nearly every day and we used the bus many times. Very cheap but their scheduling is not what you would expect but very cheap. To go tio Gibralta is not quite 3 euros return and takes onlt 40 mins. Eatapona is a lovely town and is easily reachhed by bus, The gardens of the site are immaculately kept as is the swimming pool. Unfortuneately, it is out of bounds till June 1st bexcause there is no lifeguard on duty. So I would not recoment families staying untl June. The beach is very long and empty and is only less than 10 mins walk from the flat. There are quite a lot of bech bars along the beach towards Duquessa and there is a well stocked min market 3mins away. It is expensive though so needs to be only used in emergency! There are Ligles, Mercadonna and Eroski in the town. The apartment is very sunny but could do with some loungers to fully enjoy it. I have no hesitaton in recommending the flat and Glen the owner is very helpful and obliging. r

Everything you could need, peaceful, well equipped, perfect for families.
Myself, husband and 2 teenage children really enjoyed our stay here. It is the first time we have visited this area, and I would highly recommend it. Duqesa and Sabinillas were very handy and have everything you could need. The on site managers were so helpful and attended to anything you required. The location is just far enough away to be really peaceful, but with everything to hand. The pool was never overcrowded, the beach in walking distance was beautiful, and when we went in the morning we were the only people on it! The apartment is also well placed to visit further afield. We went to Tarifa, Gibraltar, Marbella, Estapona, Rhonda and Pueto Banus. I would definitely return and would recommend this apartment to anyone, it was the perfect spot.
