2-bed apartment near the marina and beach in Torre de la Horadada

Torre de la Horadada is the seaside village of Pilar de la Horadada, named after the 16th-century watchtower that still stands on the point next to its small marina. This first-floor apartment is about 250 metres from the beach and a few minutes' walk from the tower, the fishing harbour and the village's cafés and tapas bars.

The flat is simple and well kept. A south-facing terrace of 12 m² gets sun most of the day and looks over the communal pool. The living room is separate from the kitchen, and there are two bedrooms and a bathroom with walk-in shower. Double glazing was fitted recently and there is a storeroom in the building.

Unlike the larger resorts, Torre keeps a genuinely Spanish atmosphere, with many locals living here year-round. It suits buyers wanting a lively village by the sea, and the area enjoys steady summer rental demand from Spanish holidaymakers.
