Romana Playa 132 Apartment by GHR Rentals, Marbella

Romana Playa 132 Apartment by GHR Rentals is a self-catering apartment in Marbella, Spain, set on Calle de Las Golondrinas, an address that places you close to the coast without putting you in the middle of the busiest Old Town streets. With WiFi available and air conditioning for warm-weather comfort, it suits travelers who want an independent base while still having the option to stay connected. The apartment also benefits from access to a swimming pool, plus a terrace and garden space for quieter downtime between beach outings.

The surrounding area is geared toward sea days and easy coastal access: Real de Zaragoza Beach is about 1 km away, while Nikki Beach Marbella sits roughly 1.5 km from the property. If you want nature and sand dunes, the Dunes of Artola are around 4 km, offering a different pace from the promenade. For a change of scenery, Marbella Old Town is about 10 km, where you can wander historic lanes and stop for dinner.

Guest feedback is mixed, with a 6.3/10 score from 9 reviews, so it’s worth going in with realistic expectations and focusing on the apartment’s practical strengths rather than assuming a polished, hotel-style experience. Some guests have mentioned the value of having free parking on-site, which can matter on a road trip, and others have appreciated the non-smoking environment and the chance to cool off in the pool after a day out.

Best for couples and small families looking for a straightforward, road-trip-friendly base near Marbella’s beaches and dunes, especially if you plan to spend most of your time exploring rather than staying indoors.
