Cortijo de la luz App Mar, Almuñécar Overview
Cortijo de la luz App Mar is located in Almuñécar, Spain. Rated 8.5 out of 10 based on 4 guest reviews.
Cortijo de la luz App Mar is a countryside-style stay in Almuñécar, Spain, set on Barranco de Cabria sin numero where mountain air and sea breezes meet. With a guest rating of 8.5/10 from four reviews, it’s the kind of place travelers tend to remember for its calm setting and practical comforts rather than flashy extras. The outdoor pool and the terrace help you slow down between outings, and the Japanese garden adds a quiet visual break when you want to read or plan the next drive. For fitness-minded guests, the exercise/lap pool is a useful touch, and free wired internet plus internet access make it easier to keep in touch.
