About this property

Salobreña Old Town Duplex: Stylish, Comfortable & Peaceful.

Built in the 60's in a sought after lower part of Salobrena's old town, among Spanish neighbours, the house is unusually spacious for its location, bright and with good proportions, approximately 75 sqm. The property benefits from being a 10 minute walk (600 metres) to the sea front and a 5 minute walk to the town centre where you will find a local market, large supermarkets, banks and shops. The property is situated in a particularly quiet cul-de-sac with no traffic noise. There is car access to the front door at street level.

Everything is included so you can relax: kitchen utensils, high-speed WiFi, bed linen, towels, a welcome pack of food and, of course, impeccable cleaning.

The house is arranged over two floors and two sets of stairs, conveniently separating the living and sleeping areas.

On the ground floor, the staircase leads to a large open plan kitchen, living room and terrace. The terrace faces south-east and receives sunlight from morning until well into the afternoon, providing shelter from the local winds and a mild & pleasant temperature inside the property all year round! White laminate floors, original stone walls, a large corner sofa, vintage table and lamps, air conditioning/heating, mood lighting, books, WiFi, a 65' SmartTV... even an original school blackboard!

Downstairs there are two comfortable air-conditioned bedrooms overlooking a quiet pedestrian street, a metro tiled bathroom with an extra large shower and a toilet. If you are staying with young children, safety gates can easily be fitted to the stairs. With a queen size bed (150cm) and two single beds (90cm), the house can sleep up to a maximum of 4 people. We also have a baby cot.

A car is not essential but is recommended for those wishing to explore nearby towns and beaches. Parking is generally available at the end of the street and on the parallel road, Ladera de La Cruz. Parking can take longer during the summer months, Easter and Christmas. A bus (number 2) runs from the modern part of Salobrena through the old town, past Al Salam and up to the castle.

As a Spaniard who spends most of my time in London, Salobrena has everything I look for when I return to my country: authenticity, great weather & beautiful surroundings. In 2005 I decided to look for a townhouse with potential until I found this one. I am now enjoying decorating it to make it a comfortable, safe, spacious and stylish holiday home. The last major upgrade was done in April 2019, when I installed a wooden floor in the living room, but I'm always making small improvements.

You guessed it - this is neither a beach apartment nor a villa with a swimming pool, but rather a charming townhouse where you can feel part of the city life, a privileged base from which to explore the Costa Tropical, a quiet place to work from, a safe place to retreat to after a day out.

Very comfortable, and just as pictured.
We stayed for about six weeks at Jorge place. I very much appreciated the weekly sheet and towel changes as well as the cleaning that came with this property. His manager Lidia was fantastic. This was a great location for taking a lot of overnight trips to less known towns with so much fantastic history. I agree with an earlier review it’s a little tricky, finding the place but once you you get it down, it’s pretty straightforward. Parking was available for roughly 95% of our trip. Sometimes we had to park down in town and walk up the hill but it was a minor inconvenience.

Our week in Salabreňa
Jorge's house is lovely! What you see in the photographs is exactly what you get. Very pretty and super functional. Fab kitchen though it would have been nice too have had a small store of essentials like salt, pepper, olive oil etc as if you even want to cook the simplest meal you have to buy everything from scratch. We left everything we bought, hopefully for the next people to make use of. The area is great! The beach is delightful, with great beach shops and restaurants. A warning though, the approach from lower town to the house is steep and the stairs down to the beach road are many, I managed it even though I'm in my 70's but be warned, it's not for the infirm. The view of the sea and the mountains from the balcony is an extra bonus. The beds are comfortable and the linen good, pillows rather solid though and the beds weren't made up when we got there but we soon discovered the duvets in the wardrobes. Do take the no 2 bus from the end of the road up to the castle, it's well worth it for the views alone and very interesting history. On your way back down check into Eno's lovely little studio, you can't miss it and tell him we said hi. Suze and Fen

Fantastic winter break
The property was just as described by Jorge. We loved the location, and the challenge of the 165 step, but please note, it's easy to catch the little bus which runs every half hour. The bed was so comfortable, we both had wonderful nights sleep. We enjoyed the big tele, the fantastic shower and the ambience of the house. It was a pleasure returning there after our explorations. The heating was efficient, and we were always cosy and warm. We were there for a month, and I could have spent another month there. I think that says it all!

Fantastisch mooi appartement op een fijne plek
Het voelde als een huis waar je echt in thuiskwam. Van alle gemakken voorzien en netjes. Ook prima met kleine kinderen. Ik was sieraden vergeten en die zijn zelfs nog nagestuurd. Een aanrader :)

A fabulously stylish but extremely comfortable apartment. In a great location.
We stayed here for the 1st week in January and have been so happy with the location and ease and comfort if the apartment. Fell in love with the styling and lovely touches in the furnishings and the fab lighting collection. The bed was really comfy and the shower and bathroom so easy and spacious. The location was perfect for beach walks and great access to motorways to explore inland. Was great to be here during the 3 Kings bank holiday and the place was buzzing with soanish families all out to lunch along the many gorgeous restaurants around the beach area. Coming in January Salobrena had a really Spanish feel without all the tourists and we hardly heard an english speaking voice, which we loved and gave us chance to work on our spanish. We had great weather, gorgeous warm sunshine perfect for walking around in. Chilly at night but the lounge and that amazing sofa was perfect for cosying up beneath a blanket and reading. The huge TV was a bonus and we enjoyed you tubeing music on it. We loved the beautiful quiet village of Niguelas just off the motorway near Durcal and the views frim Pinos de Valle were stunning. An amazing week, thank you Jorge.

About the host

Hosted by Jorge Postigo

Host profile image
I am a Spanish national living between London and Spain. I take great care to keep my property in Salobrena in top condition, spending time decorating it in an unfussy, elegant style, using natural, high quality materials and furnishings. When I am back in Andalusia I like to soak up the atmosphere of the town, walking the streets, talking to people and appreciating the little things that make life enjoyable. When I am at home, I like to relax in comfortable spaces that are uncluttered and authentic. I want my guests to feel the same when they stay in Salobrena. I have a local housekeeper who takes care of keys, cleaning and solving any problems on the spot. I am also always available. When I am not working or thinking about how to improve my property, I am doing yoga, open water swimming, listening to flamenco and looking for furniture with character! I hope some of my personality comes through in my home.

Why they chose this property

In 2004 I found a townhouse built in the 60s with lots of charm and potential. I liked the open space and the way it was laid out, with the living/cooking and sleeping areas on two separate floors. Now I am enjoying renovating and decorating it to create a comfortable, spacious and stylish holiday home.

What makes this property unique

Comfortable & bright, it is only a 10 minute walk to the beach and a 50 minute drive to the motorway to Granada and Malaga. Clean, tidy & crisp, it is a place where you can really feel at home. The property always has an ideal indoor temperature, which can be controlled with the HVAC units. Salobrena itself is a small town with a picturesque old town where the property is located. Salobrena is lively all year round, not just during the summer months. The Costa Tropical is much less well known than the Costa del Sol, there are many coastal and mountain towns, coves and beaches to discover.
