Nestled in a private neighbourhood in San Pedro de Alcantara, this home is a contemporary Mediterranean hideaway. Enjoy leisurely days by the private saltwater pool which can be heated on request. There is a terrace with great views and a barbecue – perfect for alfresco dining. Inside, the SONOS sound system sets the tone for laidback gatherings, while the five bedrooms (each with an en-suite bathroom) make it easy to switch off and unwind. We recommend having a car to explore further afield, but it’s just a short drive to the nearest beach and golf courses.
