Salobrena Apartment Rentals
Despite the number of apartments near the beach and in the town Salobrena apartment rentals for holidays in the summer are not easy to find. On the flat land surrounding Salobrena and running along the beach where most holiday apartments in Salobrena can be found there are many apartment buildings but unlike Almunecar these are not tall blocks of eight storeys or more but are typically just four or maybe five and although the beach area in Salobrena remains flat as it extends inland unlike its neighbour and thereby allowing several parallel rows the total number of apartments is more limited. In addition most of the apartments for rent in Salobrena’s beach area are owned by Spaniards and many of these apartments are left empty for much of the year by their Spanish owners and only occupied by the owners in the summer months. The holiday rental apartments in Salobrena are often reserved early in the year by Spanish who live in the hotter inland cities. Another obstacle to finding in Salobrena apartments for rent near the beach is that the Spanish owners do not consider or find it necessary to use the internet to advertise the availability of their apartment for rent and most of the renters find Salobrena holiday apartments for rent by word of mouth or while on a day trip to Salobrena and seeing the rental apartment with a board hanging from its balcony or terrace with the owner’s telephone number.
If you are unable to find a Salobrena apartment rental near the beach an alternative is to consider the area of Los Moriscos, a new development of apartments just a few minutes away and located on the local 18 hole golf course. There are communal pools in the development and easy walking access to the beach – although technically they are over the border in Motril (the next town along the coast).
