The Location
Casa Melocotón sits in Caleta de Veléz, a charming village about 35 km east of Málaga. Even during peak season, this peaceful corner of Andalusia feels wonderfully relaxed compared to the bustling hotspots of the Costa del Sol like Marbella or Estepona.
The broad, beautifully maintained sandy beach with excellent facilities is just a leisurely 15-minute walk away—less than a kilometer from the house. You'll find a stunning promenade stretching all the way to Torre del Mar, one of Spain's longest, perfect for evening strolls and sunset views.
The charming marina at Caleta de Velez, dotted with fishing boats and small yachts, is right at your doorstep. Wander the nearby streets and discover local restaurants and authentic beach chiringuitos—those beloved casual beach bars that capture the spirit of southern Spain. Head toward Torre del Mar and you'll find an enticing mix of bars and restaurants to suit every palate.
You'll find everything you need nearby. There's a convenient Aldi within walking distance, and just a few minutes by car you'll discover SuperSol, Lidl, and Mercadona supermarkets, plus the shopping mall "El Ingenio." You'll also find a local bakery and butcher right in Caleta de Velez.
Casa Melocotón is your perfect base for exploring the best of southern Spain. Málaga is just 30 minutes away. Marbella is 1 hour 20 minutes, Gibraltar about 2 hours, and stunning Seville is within 3 hours. The snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada are just 2 hours away, and Granada is only 90 minutes. Want a fun family day out? The water park Aquavelis is just 10 minutes away.
Getting here is wonderfully easy. From the airport, it's barely 35 minutes via the AutovĂa del Mediterráneo. Once you exit the highway at Caleta de Velez, your vacation home is right there—no fuss, no stress.
