Not a happy stay
The apartment is fairly spacious, well furnished and has a very well equipped kitchen. There's a nice view of the sea from the comfortable balcony.
The property is located on top of a cliff, in a rather strange set of buildings set aside at the end of a winding road just off the highway, squeezed between the highway and the sea. There is no access to a beach. The building has a communal swimming pool (which we didn't use) but otherwise there is nothing else there. A car is an absulte necessity. When we arrived the A/C in the living room did not work, the bathroom had not been cleaned properly, and the bed cover/blanket in the main bedroom appeared not to have been washed.
The was a constant sound of passing cars and lorries on the highway just above the property.

Disappointed because of inaccurate description and inflexible host -- no direct beach access!
The apt itself was lovely and comfortable -- just as pictured. The view was spectacular. And the person who helped us check into the apt was responsive and friendly. But, the description of the property was inaccurate. Please see the negative feedback below.
The listing says the property is "beachfront" with "direct access" to the beach. This is NOT accurate. The building is perched at the top of 300 foot cliff and there is no way to go down or up the very steep, narrow, and winding road to the beach except by car. Perhaps professional athletes could do it by bike, but for most of us, that is simply not realistic. The building is the ONLY thing up there -- there are no shops or convenience stores or anything within walking distance. It's completely isolated, in other words. We did not get this info from the description or the pics.
Also important to know, you can't really drink the tap water (it smells bad and is not recommended, though it won't kill you) and there was no drinking water in the apt when we arrived. Because we didn't have a car available to us until day 2 of our stay, we had to call (by phone, not text) and take (expensive) taxis to the nearest town to get basics like water.
We booked this property believing it had direct beach access. That was a huge part of the draw for us. As soon as we realized that was not the case, we respectfully asked the owner to modify our booking from 5 to 2 nights. He took 3 days to get back to us only to decline our request... twice. This experience was not a good one for us, so I hope that others can benefit from what we learned.
Again, the apt itself is lovely, but know that there is nothing around the building, you *must* have a car, and everything of interest (food, water, beach, etc.) is at least 10 mins drive away. If you book knowing and being prepared for this, you'll have a great time!

A quiet, beautiful, scenic retreat with modern comforts
We were greeted by Emilio, the property manager, who was welcoming, friendly, and helpful! The apartment is beautifully designed and offers a spectacular view. It features a modern, well‑equipped kitchen with plenty of amenities, stylish décor throughout, and air‑conditioning/heating in every room. The living area includes a large TV and a comfortable sofa, and there’s a lovely outdoor seating area to enjoy the surroundings. The space is bright, spacious, and thoughtfully arranged — with the added bonus of Netflix already included.
The bed was exceptionally comfortable, with soft sheets and supportive pillows that made for a great night’s sleep. The apartment has two bedrooms and one bathroom, located on the first floor, though you’ll need to climb two sets of stairs to reach it. There’s a pool on the property, but we didn’t use it during our January stay. A car is essential, as the location is peaceful and quite secluded — which also contributes to its relaxing atmosphere and stunning views. The drive up can feel a bit intimidating the first time, but it quickly becomes much easier once you’ve done it a couple of times. There was ample parking as well.
We liked our stay so much that we extended it another 2 nights to spend more time exploring Cabo de Gata. Grocery stores are about a 10 min drive away.
Hot water is limited so be mindful, which did not affect our stay

Espejo del Mar (March 2025)
+ Very well presented, clean and well equipped apartment. Very good sea view from balcony. Quiet residential urbanization (March). Netflix and Prime Video provided free on large TV. Decent location to access Almeria and further afield. Emilio the local agent was really friendly and very thorough and professional in his introduction to the property and ongoing communications.
- The apartment is in a remote residential complex high in the hills and there are no shops, restaurants, beaches or other facilities within many kilometers. Fine if like us you have a car otherwise you would definitely need access to taxis, Uber etc to get provisions or go to Almeria. The drive to the apartment from the main road is also not for the faint-hearted with a very steep climb/descent on an unguarded road. Unallocated free parking was available (March).
All in all it was a great apartment for us with our own car but would not suit those who rely on walking everywhere. Would definitely recommend with that caveat in mind.
Sehr grosszügige, moderne und sehr konfortable Wohnung mit einem Balkon mit traumhafter Sicht aufs Meer. Der Pool ist cool! Unkomplizierter Check-In voran Online. Persönliche Schlüsselübergabe und sehr freundlicher und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber.
Die Unterkunft ist etwas abgelegen. Das ist gerade der Reiz, aber man muss sich bewusst sein, dass man auf ein Auto angewiesen ist.
