Renovated living opposite the Guadalmina shops

Crossing the street puts a resident directly inside the Guadalmina Shopping Centre for morning coffee, groceries, and dinner. This 3 bedroom ground floor apartment in Guadalmina Alta combines that immediate access to daily services with the privacy of a gated residential compound. Because San Pedro de Alcántara is also within walking distance, a household can manage most errands on foot without starting a car.

Inside the 126 square metres

A recent renovation updated the layout of the 126 m2 built area to suit contemporary habits. The kitchen now opens directly into the main living room, keeping the cook in the conversation and bringing light further into the plan. All three bedrooms are doubles, which avoids the common compromise of a cramped third room that only fits a single bed. Two bathrooms serve the flat; one is en suite to the main bedroom, while the second sits off the hall for the remaining two rooms and daytime guests.

The covered porch and private garden

Living on the ground level changes how the exterior gets used. Doors from the living room open onto a covered porch and a 45 m2 private garden. Having a roof over the porch means a table and chairs can stay outside in both strong midday sun and winter rain, effectively extending the usable footprint of the living room. The lawn beyond gives a household its own patch of green before the shared grounds begin.

Pools, paddle court, and shared grounds

Beyond the private boundary, the gated community maintains extensive tropical gardens that have had time to mature. Residents share a main swimming pool, a separate children's pool, and a paddle tennis court. For buyers who intend to let the property when they are not in Spain, the flat already holds a tourist licence, which removes the administrative delay of applying for new holiday rental registration.

Golf courses and coastal access

Four established golf clubs—Guadalmina, Atalaya, El Paraíso, and Los Flamingos—sit within a short radius of this 3 bedroom ground floor apartment in Guadalmina Alta. When a wider selection of shops or beaches is needed, the coastal road connects quickly by car to Puerto Banús, Marbella, and Estepona. On a viewing, it is worth checking the exact orientation of the porch and how close the flat sits to the communal paddle court and road.
