Location — San Pedro Beach and Promenade
The apartment is in the Castiglione complex in Nueva Alcántara, the beachside neighbourhood of San Pedro de Alcántara. San Pedro beach is about 50 metres away, a short walk through the complex and across the road. The beach is wide and generally uncrowded. The sand is darker and slightly coarse, typical of this stretch of the Costa del Sol, and in some areas the shoreline can be slightly stony when entering the water, so aqua shoes can be useful. The seafront promenade runs for several kilometres and connects directly to Puerto Banús to the east. It is lined with beach restaurants (chiringuitos), cafés, cycle lanes and playgrounds. Walking there takes around 40–45 minutes.

"Everything in walking distance: beach, town, supermarket, restaurants and bars. Easy to walk to Puerto Banus and even Marbella." - Jocelyn, UK
San Pedro is quieter than Puerto Banús and is a proper Spanish town with a year-round community, where people live and work as well as visit. Restaurants and supermarkets are within walking distance of the complex.
This location offers easy access to the wider Costa del Sol without being in the middle of the busier areas. The setting lends itself to a simple day-to-day routine centred around the beach, promenade and terrace.
Recent review:
"Puerto Banus centre is a 30 minute stroll away, supermarket 10 minutes and local beach and restaurants literally on your doorstep." - Jo, UK
The area has a typical Mediterranean climate with long warm summers and mild winters. Spring and autumn are particularly good for walking, golf and outdoor dining. Winter can bring cooler and occasionally rainy spells, which can surprise some guests.

The Complex
Castiglione is one of the original beachside developments in Nueva Alcantara, well-established and generally quiet. The low-rise, whitewashed buildings are designed in a traditional Andalusian style and set within mature tropical gardens. The buildings are low-rise and there are no lifts. The apartment is on the first floor. If mobility is a consideration for anyone in your group, it is something to bear in mind before booking. The apartments are a mix of holiday homes and permanent residences, giving it a neighbourhood feel rather than a resort feel. The beach, the promenade and the nearest restaurants and cafes are all a short walk away. Castiglione is a no-party urbanisation. Guests are asked to be considerate of neighbours with regard to noise.
Pool Season: The pool is open all year around. Please note that there is no lifeguard on duty.

Who Stays Here
Groups of family or friends looking for a property with a private pool and space to spread out. The rooftop works well for groups of eight who want to eat, swim and spend evenings outside together without leaving the property. The location suits groups who want easy access to the beach and a fully walkable area. The beach and promenade are around 200m away on foot, with restaurants, cafes and supermarkets all nearby. Puerto Banus can be reached along the seafront or in a short drive. A typical day tends to start on the rooftop or at the beach, with lunch at one of the chiringuitos along the promenade. Evenings work well on the rooftop with the BBQ, or at one of the restaurants in town.
