Our beautiful holiday house by the beach is in a secure gated community with 2 heated pools - one suitable for children, the other with a deep end. It is built to the highest specification with all modern luxuries. For those long hot summer days if you prefer to cool off for a while, our downstairs covered patio has a great view of the mountains, a dining table, chairs and a large settee. There is air conditioning and the central heating is occasionally useful on winter evenings. We have furnished it with elegant comfort in mind. The balcony bedroom has twin beds which are manufactured to be made up as a seamless double bed. Please advise which format you wish to use. The house's glory is its spacious roof terrace with breathtaking views of sea, mountains & the sunsets over Gibraltar. It's equipped with BBQ, sink, large comfortable sofa & lounger beds, the dining table and 4 chairs may be shaded with the awning. The occasional table & chairs are under the thatched gazebo. If our elegant dining area is too much, just along the beach are 4 excellent restaurants. Next to Antonio Banderas' house is one of the best serving excellent Spanish and French cooking. Their Chateaubriand is exceptional. The Capabana beach resort (part of the 5 star Los Monteros hotel) serves legendary buffet lunches inside and out. The closest, La Mangelata serves superb seafood almost all day and evening and is very reasonably priced. Don't miss their dry or wet paellas. The world famous Silks by the sea is further along the beach. Further afield the range and quality of restaurants betters most cities. We have enjoyed Spanish traditional, including tapas bars, French, Thai, Chinese, mixed oriental, Indian and fondue to name a few within a few minutes drive. Eating in Spain is relatively inexpensive.

In Marbella there are restaurants on the beaches, promenades and dotted around the beautiful old town and Orange Square.

Dozens of restaurants' details are in a folder in the house. The range of sporting activities is amazing. All types of watersports off the beach-try your hand at para-surfing outside La Mangelata. There are 20 or so top class golf courses nearby, 3 within walking distance; a very good pitch and putt built into the hills at Elveria. Watch horse racing at Mijas championship football vs Madrid at Malaga, or drive 1.5 hours further on to Sierra Nevada and be on the slopes snow skiing.

Horse riding, quad biking, go karting, shooting, tennis, football training for the children, or just have a swim in one of the heated pools. Outings include crossing the 8 miles from nearby Tarifa to Morrocco, tour the Picasso museum in Malaga, Dolphin watch, mountain National parks football training, taking a skilift to the top of nearby mountains behind the beach, pop & classical concerts. Don't miss the world heritage sites: Alhambra Palace, Seville, Gibraltar Cadiz and Trafalgar. Belo a former Roman settlement is exceptionally complete and well preserved. Retail therapy: La Canada (3 or 4 minutes by car) is one of the largest retail shopping malls in Europe and has most of the famous name clothes and other shops, a huge supermarket/department store as well as a cinema showing English films, a bowling alley, fitness centre and huge electrical store. The old town of Marbella (the same distance away) is a mixture of Mayfair and good quality Spanish shops selling Spanish goods especially shoes, clothing and jewellry at very reasonable prices. For the more adventurous you can pick up bargains from N Africa and Spain in the street markets up and down the immediate coast on different days. Puerto Banus 10 minutes away by car is of course is the jet setters paradise and even dedicated shop-a-holics could not fail to be satisfied there; another English cinema and fabulous restaurants overlooking the yacht marina. Up in the nearby (and un-missable) white villages of Andalucia the focus is on craft goods especially leather clothing. The kitchen and bathrooms are superbly equipped. The kitchen is Bosch: dishwasher, washing machine/dryer, oven, hob, fan, fridge, freezer, kettle' percolator, juicer and everything you'll need.

In the living area a 32" sattelite TV,DVD/video and radio/CD.

The master en-suite marble bathroom has a Jacuzzi bath, detachable shower, large sink, bidet, toilet and large double walk-in shower. Of course the mirror and towel rail are heated and there is a heatray lamp in the ceiling.

The roof terrace has a BBQ, sink with hot and cold water. There is a dining table and 4 chairs which you may shade with a parasol. Under the thatched gazebo is an occasional table and chairs.
