About the home

Our well furnished ground floor 2 bedroom and 2 bathroom apartment overlooks the attractive gardens and a shared swimming pool on a new, prestigious development. The apartment has everything you will need on holiday including a fully equipped kitchen with separate laundry area and a spacious lounge/dining room with satellite TV (with a good selection of UK channels, including BBC and ITV). a DVD/CD player, an i-Pod station and wi-fi facilities. It is fully airconditioned (both hot and cold to suit all seasons) and has a large recently extended south facing terrace. The secure, gated development is set in tropical gardens with landscaped swimming pools (and separate children's pools) and is close to a selection of excellent golf courses. There is also a clean sandy beach only 800m away with its own beach bar/restaurant. The apartment is situated in a quiet and relaxing location but also benefits from being only a short 8 minute drive from Duquesa Marina which has an excellent range of bars, restaurants and nightlife. The restaurants cater for all tastes, offering seafood, steaks, Italian, Chinese, Indian and Spanish cuisine. Estepona and the picturesque hilltop village of Casares is also a short drive away.

Facilities

Further details indoors:
The kitchen and laundry area is fully equipped including fridge/freezer, dishwasher, electric cooker, microwave and washing machine and clothes airer. The lounge/dining room has a comfortable leather suite (seating 5 people) and an oak dining table seating 6 people. In addition to the satellite TV, there is a DVD/CD player for your entertainment - with a selection of music and films to enjoy - and an i-Pod station. Wi-Fi is also available; access codes will be provided prior to arrival. Patio doors from the lounge lead on to the terrace which is south facing and enjoys the sun for most of the day. There is a circular patio table with 4 chairs and a sun parasol. This is the perfect place to enjoy an early evening sundowner! The bedrooms have 4 single beds but the two in the master bedroom are zipped together to provide a King size double bed. This arrangement provides the flexibility for a family or for four friends on holiday together (eg on a golfing break). Both bedrooms benefit from airconditioning but they also have very effective 3 speed ceiling fans which many guests often prefer.

Our local management agent will meet you when you arrive at Casares del Sol, see you settled into the apartment and will provide any help you need during your stay. The apartment will be clean and ready for your arrival with freshly made beds and bath and hand towels provided. Our local agent can provide a change of linen and towels on request for stays of 2 weeks or longer.

Further details outdoors:
Casares del Sol is a prestigious development of luxury apartments and penthouses in a secure gated complex with underground car parking facilities. The living room and terrace are south facing and overlook the garden and swimming pool. This pool is open during the summer holidays and there is an additional pool on the same complex a short walk away which is open all year round. Both these pools are a good size and also have smaller pools for younger children.

This is a wonderful all year round destination and the apartment is ideally situated for exploring Gibraltar, Sotogrande, Ronda, Puerto Banus and Marbella. The Marinas of Duquesa and Estepona are only a short drive away and they both have a good selection of bars and restaurants and colourful weekly street markets. There are also a number of world class 18 hole golf courses close by with blue flag beaches only 800 metres away.

The Costa del Sol region

The Costa del Sol offers a wide range of sightseeing, sporting and leisure activities, many within easy reach of the apartment. Puerto Banus with its restaurants, clubs, bars and shops is a 20 minutes drive away whilst, in the opposite direction, Gibraltar offers tax free shopping and spectacular views only 30 minutes away. Children and adults alike will enjoy the wonderful beaches and a visit to the Selwo Safari Park. Further inland, Ronda and the many surrounding white Andalucian villages, offer great historical interest and a glimpse of traditional Spain.

There are also many excellent 18 hole golf courses within easy access of the apartment. The Finca Cortesin Golf Club, which hosts the 2009 World Match Play Tournament, is within walking distance and offers superb golfing facilities and an excellent restaurant. The Casares Golf & Country Club is also only a leisurely stroll away and offers discounted rates to visitors from Casares del Sol. They also have an attractive bar and restaurant.

One of the main attractions of the Costa del Sol is its consistently warm mediterranean climate and the region enjoys sunshine for over 320 days per year. The hottest time of year is during the Summer months when daytime temperatures average around 30 degrees Centigrade (85 F). Even during the Winter months the climate is pleasantly mild with daytime temperatures around 18 degrees Centigrade (63 F). You will need some warm clothing during the Winter evenings, although temperatures rarely fall below 10 degrees Centigrade.

This very pleasant climate makes the Costa del Sol an attractive all year round holiday destination and an excellent short break from the British weather, particularly in late Autumn and early Spring. Our apartment is an ideal base for exploring Andalucia or enjoying a golfing holiday.

The Casares Costa area

Duquesa and Estepona, which both have pretty marinas and an excellent range of restaurants, bars and nightlife are only a short drive away. The Andalucian village of Casares is a 15 minute drive inland from Casares del Sol and offers wonderful views, country side walks, birdwatching and a small selection of bars and restaurants. The beach is literally a 3 minute drive away or, if you are feeling fit, a 15 minute stroll from the apartment where there is also a lively beach bar. There is a good selection of well stocked supermarkets in Sabinillas which is only a 5/10 minute drive from the apartment. There are a number of excellent golf course close by, some within walking distance.

There is also good access by road to a number of attractive Spanish towns. Ronda is high up in the mountains with stunning views across the countryside whilst Mijas, just 8 km inland, is set amongst pine groves on the edge of the Sierra de Kijas mountains with its cobbled streets, unique square bullring and breathtaking coastal views. Most watersports eg diving, waterskiing and kitesurfing are available at Tarifa, just 14 km along the coast. There is also skiing in the Sierra Nevada, often until May. Selwo Safari and Adventure Park (www.selwo.es) is close by for family entertainment. If you are more adventurous, you can take a trip to Morocco on the hydrofoil.

“"Fabulous!"” Fantastic apartment! Ideal for our party of two mums and two children (6 + 12), especially with one pool right in front of the apartment. Apartment very well equipped. Location great - especially once we realised there was a brasserie within easy walking distance. Everything else is just a short drive away - and one of the beaches (with a great beach restaurant) is withing walking distance. We loved our stay in Cesares Del Sol - in fact, we've already booked for next October!

Guestbook for Casares del Sol

October 2011: Pam & family: We found this apartment spacious, clean, tastefully decorated and extremely well-equipped. It also has a fantastic location beside the swimming pool - particularly perfect if you happen to have children (lovely big balcony too!). The gardens are also beautiful with breathtaking views of the mountains from central swimming pool area. General location of the resort is also ideal with many interesting places to visit nearby, as well as good restauarants and beaches. Top marks all round!

August 2011: Kath & family: We have had a lovely time in your apartment and would like to book again for August 2012.

July 2011: Nikki from Milton Keynes: We stayed at the apartment 4-14 July 2011. We were pleasantly surprised at the size of the apartment (it seemed smaller in the photos), and how well equipped it was. The owners have put a lot of thought into making it as comfortable as possible, with everything from a sewing kit to a garlic crusher in the kitchen, and a selection of books and movies for guests to use. The terrace overlooks the pool and we enjoyed eating there. The apartment is very well located for exploring the area - we enjoyed our trips to Gibraltar, Ronda and Casares. I would have no hesitation in recommending the apartment to a friend. We had a fantastic holiday!

April 2011: O'Connor family: We had a lovely holiday despite the weather not being great. The apartment is great, it has everything we needed including Sky TV and Wi-Fi. It has a great location beside the pool. Hoping to come back again later in the Summer. Thanks.

August/September 2010: Fahey family: We had a fantastic holiday. The apartment was excellent, well furnished, comfortable beds and a great view of the swimming pool from the terrace. Too many attractions to list but have a few that are definitely worth a visit: water park at Algerciras, beach at bottom of the hill across the roundabout - great beach bar too; beach at Estepona fantastic; restaurants: La Traviata at Duquesa - great steaks, Marymar beach front seafood restaurant at Sabinillas - great fish cooked on beach and brought to your table. This is the fifth time we have stayed at Casares and we will definitely be coming back - this apartment is the best we have stayed in. Thank you.

August 2010: Cor, Annette, Victor & Nina from Holland: We enjoyed our stay in this great apartment. Breakfast outside, view of the pool, a great way to start the day. Inside, everything was very comfortable and very well furnished. Our kids loved the pool and once in it was hard to get them out again. Highlights during our stay: a visit to Gibraltar - very surprising and the beach at Sabanillas. Thanks for a great stay.

July 2010 from Ian, Chris & Lucas: A really comfortable and well equipped apartment. We enjoyed our stay enormously. Lovely pool and beatutiful gardens. Local highlights included the the beach just over the main road with its big, white rolling waves and soft sand; the Sunday morning markets with their interesting array of goods; and the atmosphere and food at Puerto Duquesa. Finally, the information available in the apartment includes a lot of the history of the surrounding area - it's well worth reading if you have the time. All in all a great holiday - thank you.

July 2010 from Christine & family: "We enjoyed our stay very much. The apartment was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The pool and gardens are lovely and well managed. Great location for beaches, dining out, shopping (good local markets). Both the owner and the on site agent were very helpful with local information so we made the most of our stay (Thank you David and John). Great holiday as it far exceeded our expectations. We would happily stay here again".

August 2009: " What a beautiful apartment and perfect for all our needs. A really central apartment which allowed us to explore the area without too much difficulty. We had a fantastic stay - very relaxing - which was just what we needed. Thanks".

June 2009: "A very well furnished and good sized apartment. Great location for all the golf courses and some excellent restaurants. Swimming pool was very refreshing and the whole complex was generally quiet and very well maintained. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to our friends".

May 2009: "Just wanted to say we had a fabulous stay and found the apartment very comfortable compared to other apartments....very surprised to find an apartment so well furnished and had everything we could have possibly needed, a real home from home! Will definitely be contacting you to book next year. Thanks again".
