Apartamento Fontanilla, Marbella Overview
Apartamento Fontanilla is located in Marbella, Spain. Rated 8.7 out of 10 based on 25 guest reviews.
Apartamento Fontanilla is a self-catering apartment in Marbella, Spain, set on Calle Gregorio Marañón, n 4, in the Edificio Extremadura. The address matters here: you’re close enough to the coast for easy beach days, yet still within reach of the town’s main sights when you want a change of pace. With a guest rating of 8.7/10 from 25 reviews, the overall impression is positive, especially for travelers who like having practical comforts at hand.
Inside, the apartment is designed for everyday living, with air conditioning for warm Marbella afternoons and free wired internet for those who need to stay connected. The kitchen setup is geared to longer stays, and the presence of a dishwasher and a coffee machine makes day-to-day routines smoother. A terrace adds outdoor space for slower mornings, and non-smoking policies help keep the environment comfortable.
For downtime, there’s a swimming pool on-site, and you also have access to a nearby outdoor pool, which is useful if you want options without planning a whole outing. Reviews commonly point to the convenience of having parking available for free, plus the added flexibility of discounted offsite parking rates.
If you’re visiting Marbella as a couple, with family, or on a road trip, this is the kind of base that works because it balances beach proximity with the independence of an apartment. You can reach La Fontanilla Beach in about 1 km and El Faro Beach in roughly 2 km, while Marbella’s Old Town and Plaza de los Naranjos are around 3.5–3.8 km away.
