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!

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.

Super recommended
This apartment seems to be taken out of a magazine. Everything from the structure to the design and small details. Attentive host. The apartment is obviously up a steep road, as is the whole old town, but it is relatively close to the bottom part of town and to the beach. Do note that there are 2 flights of stairs (we were there with a baby and it didn't bother us). And while you're here, do go to Restaurante La Roka - absolutely beautiful spot with unmatched food for very reasonable price.

Fabulous property, Jorge has thought of everything to make sure clients have an enjoyable stay in his lovely home. Comfortable beds, linens, towels, and a superb bathroom, the shower is amazing! Salobrena is a lovely old town and the beach is easy to get to, this is by far the best property we have stayed in.

Jorge's Casa
We felt comfortable in Jorge's casa from the moment we arrived. It was clean, comfortable, spacious and tastefully decorated. The attention to detail is impressive. A lot of thought has gone into making guests' stay a success. The communication with the owner was very good. Situated in a quiet area of the old town it is ideal for both town and beach. The only possible negative is that there are two lots of stairs in the property and a lot stairs in the general area so it may not be suitable for people who have mobility problems. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning in the future.

Charming house, charming place.
We enjoyed our stay at Jorges Casa. The apartment has all you need, from the well equipped kitchen to the bedrooms with extra cushions. Bathroom is spacious. All was very clean and in place when we arrived. The Old town in Salobrena is very charming, and its a short walk from the apartment down to the town center and the beach. Our communication with Jorge was very good, and he also provided extra service for us due to allergies. We are very satisfied with our stay and the process of renting via Jorge and HomeAway.

Great apartment and location
We loved the place. It was comfortable and well appointed. It had everything one could hope for. The walk down to the beach at first looked a little daunting but we didn’t have a problem with it. Solabrena is a small town but the surrounding area was a short drive away.

A Great Stay
We really enjoyed our stay in Salobrena at Jorge's house. The property is lovely and ideally located for both the beach and the old town where you can enjoy some authentic Spanish cuisine. We also loved the really comfy beds and thought the house was extremely well equipped and spotlessly clean. A huge thank you to Jorge and a huge recommendation to all.

Great location and a 'real' home
Perfect location to feel like you are actually in a real functioning town not just a holiday resort but just 10 minute walk to the beach, Additionally Jorge's house is very homely with lots of stylish and practical touches that make you feel at home. The kitchen has everything you need but there are lots of restaurants within a short walk that you might not use it too much. Although the biggest surprise for us was just how quiet the location is even though it is so central to everything..

Sehr schöner Urlaub in Salobrena
Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt in dieser komplett und hochwertig eingerichteten Wohnung in Salobrena. Alles war so wie in der Anzeige beschrieben und die Übergabe am Anreisetag durch Ivan lief völlig problemlos. Einziges Problem: Die Straßenbiegung vor der Wohnung wurde während unseres Aufenthalts neu gepflastert und war somit komplett gesperrt. Wir konnten deshalb nicht mit dem Auto in der Straße vor der Wohnung parken. Die Baustelle bestand sicherlich schon einige Tagen (Wochen?) vor unserer Ankunft - und es wird wahrscheinlich noch einige Zeit dauern, bis dieser Teil der Straße wieder befahrbar sein wird. Darüber hätte man uns vorher informieren können, hat es aber nicht getan. Schade. So gibt's einen Punkt Abzug.

Wonderful apartment with sea view in the old town of Salobreña
We stayed in Jorge's nice apartment for a week in late October and had a wonderful time. Once we managed to find the way through the very narrow streets of Salobreña's old town (watch the video that Jorge provided in advance, then it won't be a problem), Ivan welcomed us warmly at the apartment and showed us everything. The cosy apartment which is arranged over two floors was perfect for us. We enjoyed our breakfast every morning on the sunny balcony and loved to cook lunch or dinner in the fully equipped kitchen. The beach was just a short stroll away and we were there pretty much every day. On the way back you have to climb many stairs to return to the apartment, but you get used to it after a couple of days. The owner Jorge provided us with many useful tips for restaurants - we tried Pesetas for original Paella and La botica for a lovely fried fish plate and had traditional Sangria at La Bahia after our beach days. During our stay we made a trip to Granada which is only a one hour drive away and visited the beautiful Alhambra. We fully enjoyed our vacation in Jorge's apartment and liked Salobreña as our holiday home.

Lovely, well equipped flat in old part of town of Salobrena
We loved this flat and Salobrena, and spend some very nice days there. The flat is well-equipped und has a beautiful decor. We even got some food (e.g. fruits) upon arrival. Parking might be a bit difficult, and we usually parked in the beach area.. its an easy way up to the old part of town where the flat is located (10 min). We visited Granada (45 min by car) which was also great. Thanks Jorge!

Stilvolles Altstadtdomizil
Wir verbrachten leider nur 5 Tage in diesem sehr gemütlichen, stilvoll eingerichteten Altstadthaus, in dem für uns 4 erwachsene Personen alles perfekt war. Der Wohnraum mit großzügiger Sitzecke, großem Essbereich und integrierter Küche hat uns sehr gefallen. Die Schlafzimmer sind mit guten Betten ausgestattet und liegen zur ruhigen autofreien Gasse, das sorgte für guten Schlaf. Bad und extra Toilette waren groß und gut. Besonders gefallen hat uns, dass es an nichts fehlte und alles eine Wohlfühlatmosphäre ausstrahlte. Besonders nett war das "Willkommenspaket" mit allem, was man für eine wunderbare erste Mahlzeit benötigte, sogar mit frischen Brötchen, Obst und Tomaten! Auch der Ort Salobrena ist schön mit seiner Burg, der Altstadt, den Restaurants und Läden, seinem Strand und dem vorgelagerten Felsen. Es ist auch ein guter Ausgangspunkt für Fahrten nach Granada, Malaga, Ronda oder ins Gebirge. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Ein ganz herzliches Dankeschön an Jorge, den Vermieter, der auch mit seinen ausführlichen Beschreibungen uns z. B. die Anfahrt erleichtert hat und Probleme gar nicht erst entstehen ließ!

Schöne Wohnung in einem lebendigen Dorf
Dear Jorge, we had a very good stay at your appartment and a good time in Salobrena. We had a wonderful wheather (much better than here in germany) and nice trips in the surrounding. Some of the restaurants were closed, but this is the risk, travelling in february. So we cooked by ourself with the wonderful products (fresh fish, tropical fruits) from the local market. The flat is perfect, fully equipped and very stylish. We slept very well. We liked to stay in a normal village, not in a area only for touristists. Hope to come again!
