Mar y Sol, Gran Alacant Overview
Mar y Sol is located in Gran Alacant, Spain. Rated 9.6 out of 10 based on 20 guest reviews.
Mar y Sol in Gran Alacant, Spain, is a two-bedroom apartment set within the Urbanización Sukha by Nara area, on Calle Canarias 6.9 Apartamento 25, making it a practical base for beach days and day trips. The apartment is air-conditioned and includes a fully equipped kitchen, so families and longer-stay travellers can eat in when they want a quieter rhythm. Guests consistently rate the stay highly for comfort and ease, with the overall score of 9.6/10 from 20 reviews reflecting what many visitors mention: the space works well for everyday living, not just sleeping. Outside, the communal swimming pool and the hot tub/Jacuzzi are the main draw for downtime, while the terrace gives you somewhere to linger after a swim or an evening walk. There’s also a shallow end, which tends to be appreciated by families with younger children.
If you’re planning a road trip, free parking is a standout, and discounted offsite parking rates are available, which helps when you’re juggling multiple outings around the Alicante coast. For nearby sightseeing, Playa de Los Arenales del Sol is about 1.3 km away, and Playa del Carabassí is roughly 3.5 km, both within easy reach for swimming and sunset strolls. Nature lovers can also look toward Parque Natural del Clot de Galvany at around 8 km for a change of scenery beyond the sand.
Mar y Sol is best for families and road-trip travellers who want a comfortable, self-catering setup with a pool-and-jacuzzi break close to the beaches of Gran Alacant.

- Travelers who value comfort features like air conditioning and non-smoking accommodations, plus on-site leisure like a swimming pool and terrace
