Located on Calle Fernan Perez Portocarrero in the Albacerrado Urbanization, it suits groups who prefer a residential base for day trips and beach time. With air conditioning, you can keep comfortable temperatures after windy afternoons along the shore, and the terrace with outdoor furniture gives everyone a place to linger without leaving the property.

What to Expect

Check-in runs from mid-afternoon to early evening, so you’ll likely settle in after a day of exploring Tarifa. The apartment is positioned as a quiet, space-focused base in the Albacerrado Urbanization, which should feel more residential than tourist-center. From there, you can plan easy day trips toward Punta de Tarifa and Castillo de Guzmán el Bueno, and longer outings to Bolonia Beach and Parque Natural del Estrecho. With a 9.7/10 rating from a small set of reviews, the stay appears to be consistently satisfying, and the property emphasizes thorough cleaning and local safety protocols between guests.

Location Intelligence

You’re about 1 km from Castillo de Guzmán el Bueno and roughly 2 km from Punta de Tarifa, making it practical for short excursions. For bigger outings, Bolonia Beach is around 12 km and Parque Natural del Estrecho is about 10 km away.
