Beachfront apartment with air-con, large sun-terrace (& loungers), WiFi & UKTV
Marina Bay is a prestigious apartment complex which has 2 lovely pools and is directly overlooking and with direct access to the child friendly Cristo Beach. The 40m2 South West facing terrace overlooking the beach benefits from lots of sun and provides breathtaking views of the sea, Gibraltar and on a clear day North Africa. Just perfect for the sun-worshipper topping up their tan! The apartment is extremely well equipped & has a fully fitted kitchen with oven and hob, microwave, kettle, toaster, fridge-freezer, dishwasher & washing machine. Air conditioning, sun screens and ceiling fans are fitted to keep you cool even on the hottest days and heating for winter stays is also provided at no extra cost. Secure underground parking is also provided if you hire a car. Estepona Marina with its traditional tapas and cafe bars and restaurants is only a 10 minute walk away and the lovely white walled town is also on the doorstep. All this makes a truly wonderful apartment in a stunning location!

Mooi appartement in een prachtig complex. De ligging is perfect met alles (restaurantjes, haven, boulevard, zee, winkels, sport/padel-complex, marktjes, etc.) op loopafstand. We hebben vier weken heerlijk genoten van ons verblijf in het fijne appartement met complete inventaris én prachtig groot balkon.Houd wel rekening met het feit dat in het najaar de zon pas 's middags het balkon bereikt en dat het appartement in de ochtend wat donker is.Aandachtpuntje: de huiskamerbank zit niet echt lekker! (eig. echt niet lekker!) - verder prima service door Sue!Al met al ... een aanrader!
The stay is in a good location, near the sea, the harbor, shops and restaurants. The apartment was comfortable in terms of layout, a great kitchen, 2 good bathrooms, 1 with shower and 1 with bath, 2 bedrooms, of which we used 1. Furthermore, a large balcony with various furniture. All windows and outside doors have roller shutters which dampens the street noise. Other supplies for the beach and other daily necessities are also available. The parking garage under the complex is spacious.
However, the sofa was not comfortable and the double mattress needs to be replaced. The balcony needs to be cleaned regularly because pigeons and other birds left their droppings behind. Overall, we spent an excellent month in the apartment.
We couldn’t fault the apartment, and was as described. Communication was smooth and easy, we were met by Chris on arrival who showed us to our parking spot in the garage and explained how everything worked in the apartment.
It was very clean, comfortable beds, good and quiet air conditioning, plenty of kitchen equipment, basic condiments, and with cleaning supplies left for us to use in the week. We appreciated the provisions for our arrival so we didn’t need to rush out to the shops, including bread, water, wine! Thank you.
The terrace with sea view we spent lots of time on, larger than expected, fully furnished, with the added bonus of beach chairs and umbrellas which we borrowed when heading to the beach, literally 2 mins walk from the back of the property.
Easy 5 min walk to the harbour, restaurants and Sunday market and about 15/20 mins walk into the centre of Estapona along the seafront promenade.
Many thanks, we had a wonderful holiday.
Von Anfang bis Ende haben wir gespürt, dass der Gast mit seinen Bedürfnissen im Mittelpunkt steht. Besonders angenehm war das freundliche Willkommen. Die Ferienwohnung ist sehr modern und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Weiteres Highlight ist die Terrasse mit Blick auf das Meer. Der Strand ist zu Fuß in 5 Minuten erreichbar. Insgesamt war alles zu unserer besten Zufriedenheit!
Husband and I had a fabulous 10 nights stay in this apartment.
On arrival, we were met by Chris who explained everything to us and made us feel very welcome,
Literally everything in the apartment is catered for from the welcome goodies which included beer, wine, bread, milk, butter, water and more, to store cupboard items and all cleaning materials.
Lovely comfortable beds.
Very big terrace with good furniture.
The beautiful Cristo beach is minutes away. The town is an easy 35 to 40 minute stroll away, lots and lots of fab places to eat.
Communication with the owner Andy was very good indeed, helpful and replied to questions quickly.
In a nutshell……Would I book again…..YES.
Would I recommend this apartment…YES.
Had an excellent stay in a perfect property. The property had everything we needed and was as described. The outdoor terrace was the real selling point for us and was perfect for our stay.
The property was well located with amenities nearby and a lovely walk along the seafront to reach an abundance of great restaurants. Estepona was a lovely place to walk around with lots to see. Property also had underground secure parking which was great for our hire car. Will very likely be back again.
Only thing that could have been a bit better was the WIFI which was fairly slow, but got good 4G & 5G reception on mobiles, so not a big issue.
Overall this was great place to stay and would highly recommend
It was our first time taking the children abroad, with one child having additional needs, and this apartment was perfect for our needs. It has a home from home feel to it. The apartment was very clean and well looked after. The terrace was a huge plus as it's so big and perfect for alfresco dining. The pool area was perfect and quiet. My children loved it so much they want to come back again! Andy was very helpful and great with communication.
This is a great little apartment just a stones throw from the beach with 2 lovely restaurants and is just a short walk to Estapona Port. Estapona old town is only a 15 minute stroll away. The apartment itself is spotlessly clean with lovely new bathrooms and kitchen. The terrace is huge and looks out to sea. We will definitely be back!
Great space with fantastic views and so close to the Marina made it the perfect stay for us. The apartment was clean with a great welcoming pack on arrival and it made for the perfect start to our holiday. When we did have a slight issue (dead gull on the terrace in the next apartment along) it was dealt with immediately. We will definitely stay again.
Lovely clean apartment, very close to amenities and two minutes to the beach.
Thank you for the welcome goodies, including bread, butter, marmalade, water, beer and wine.
We enjoyed our stay, exploring the area, thank you for letting us rent your apartment.
Best wishes
Sandra and Patrick
Great apartment in an ideal location just yards from the great beach El Cristo and a short stroll to the marina and old town. Apartment was well equipped had everything you needed and the cleanliness was really good and the sun terrace was fantastic and got the sun all afternoon. Communication with owner, Sue was good and Chris showed us round the apartment and explained everything to us. The owner also left a welcome pack of all the essentials you need when you first arrive including wine which was very much appreciated and he also supplied us with information regarding the area and restaurants. We had an absolute fantastic holiday and look forward to going again in the near future.
An excellent apartment with one or two small problems. Communication with manager very good. Description accurate although the swimming pool was closed despite being told that it would be open. Excellent kitchen provision and very nice welcome pack including wine and beer! One small problem was towards the end of our stay we became aware of an unpleasant odour in the second shower room smelling like a drain. This was rapidly dealt with but recurred by the following day. This should be sorted as we suspect that it might be a recurrent problem
A very beautiful apartment well located behind the magnificent marina of Estepona close to all services. The apartment is very well equipped and you will find a large and beautiful terrace to enjoy the sea air and the sun. You will find good restaurants near the marinas and the center of Estepona accessible on foot via a promenade along the ocean. Communication is very easy with Andy the owner and on site with Sue who manages the apartment and helps you with any small difficulties you may encounter.
The apartment is clean, comfortable and well equipped. Very convenient for the marina and stroll along the excellent prom to the old town. The real plus is the very large terrace.
Had a lovely 5 week stay in Estepona. Check in easy, met with Chris who showed us around the apartment. Lovely apartment close to Marina with many restaurants and a couple of supermarkets. Historic quarter within easy walking distance. Apartment has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Terrace is beautiful with views over the sea. Welcome pack with water/ tea/bread etc much appreciated. Good communication with Andy. Many thanks :)
It was a wonderful property Andy had thought of absolutely everything! Amazing welcome pack and everything you could possibly need for your stay and more. Spotlessly clean could not fault a thing. Great location short walk to shops, Marina where there are plenty of restaurants and bars and a nice easy walk to the beautiful old town an absolute must go to. 5 mins to the beach very secure and can’t recommend enough
We were delayed for 6 hours and Andy and Sue were readily available and accommodated every thing.
We hope to return if you will have us

Great apartment, very clean and comfortable, with everything you need available and fully equipped with all kitchen utensils, which is often sadly lacking in other rental apartments. Welcome pack was a very nice touch.
Great position for port area and town. We didn’t really use the beach as the sea was cold (August) and lots of seaweed and some scum at waters edge, but the pool was warm and pool area was beautifully kept and we swam and chilled there every day at least once.
I am a light sleeper and there was some disturbance from traffic noise during the night in the master bedroom, but family in the twin bedroom were not disturbed at all.
A lovely comfortable apartment in a great location in which to relax and take refuge from the August heat, and we would definitely come again.
Apartment was everything the listing said it would be amenities were correct and location was correctly described the sun came round onto the balcony at about 1.30 pm which was great as it gave you time to do other things like going to the beach or going to town in the morning Estapona its self was a revelation something different round every corner there was a festival while we were ther celebrating the different hams from the region its also a very colourful and traditional spanish town.The marina which is close by has plenty of bars, eating places and supermarkets
The only cloud on the horizon which was out of the control of the owner was work on the nextdoor Apartment which was very loud and spoilt the last two days of our stay
L’appartement est très bien aménagé, la terrasse est super, point négatif, la piscine est un peu petite, est la circulation est bruyante car on l’entend dans les chambres.
We were a little unfortunate with the weather during our stay, but the apartment is well located close to the port and Cristo beach. It’s a pleasant pedestrianised beachside walk into the town centre which has plenty of shops and restaurants.

About the host
Hosted by Andy Loftus
We have been holidaying in Estepona since 1992 and in 2009 we were lucky enough to be able to leave Manchester and spend more time in Spain. We have been letting guests stay in our apartments for over 20 years and like to think that we now know how to make our guests holidays a special experience; from the simple booking process, to providing detailed directions to the apartment, to the standard of the 'finish' of the apartments and the quality of the complementary welcome pack that we provide. It sounds easy but getting the little details just right is often the making of a stress free holiday.
Why they chose this property
This apartment is ideally situated a short walk from both the Marina (250m) and the lovely Cristo Beach (50m). It is furnished in a modern but still comfortable style and is equipped to a high standard. With air-conditioning (and winter heating), two pools and a stunning, spacious terrace with sea views, you would struggle to find a better place to stay in Estepona.
What makes this property unique
This apartment was previously owned by friends of ours and after waiting seven years having 'first refusal' on the apartment if it was ever for sale we were lucky enough to be able to purchase it in 2010. We hope that once you see the apartment, the location and the huge terrace that you will agree it was worth our wait! The 40m2 terrace with this apartment is unlike any other we have seen and we have made sure that our guests can enjoy it fully by adding a glass wall so the sea views are uninterrupted, loungers for taking in the sun, a patio set perfect for al-fresco dining and subtle lighting so you can stay out there even after the sun has set.
