The architectural style and layout typical of developments in this area tend toward low-rise buildings that suit the Mediterranean landscape. El Alarife works well for buyers seeking an apartment on the coast without the intensity of a large resort complex.

Families will find schools and services nearby, while those who play golf have several courses a short drive away.
