Residencia Martina, Estepona Overview
Residencia Martina is located in Estepona, Spain. Rated 9.5 out of 10 based on 4 guest reviews.
Residencia Martina is a non-smoking stay in Estepona, Spain, set along Calle Torre Quebrada on the Costa Galera road (Carretera N-340, km.148,5), a practical base for beach days and road trips. Guests rate it 9.5/10 based on a small set of reviews, and the common thread is the calm, residential feel paired with helpful on-the-ground logistics like free parking and discounted offsite parking options. Check-in runs from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM and check-out is 11:00 AM, so plan your arrival accordingly.
The property’s outdoor pool and terrace make it easy to slow down between excursions, especially in warmer months when you want a place to cool off without leaving the area. Air conditioning is available, which matters in the evenings when temperatures can stay high. Family rooms are offered, and children are welcome, so it works well for groups who want space and flexibility rather than a strictly hotel-style setup.
If you’re choosing this part of Estepona, you’re close to Playa de La Galera (about 1 km), and you can also reach Estepona’s Old Town (around 9 km) for whitewashed streets and evening strolls. For a change of pace, the Estepona Orchidarium is roughly 9 km away, and Selwo Aventura is about 12 km from the property for a full day out.
Best for families and road-trip friendly travelers who want free parking, a pool-and-terrace rhythm, and easy access to the coast while still being within reach of Estepona’s main sights.
