El Palo Beach House
The Beachfront houses in El Palo were built during the Franco era for the fisherman and other workers of the village, as it was then. All the houses have an individual style as they were built depending on the needs of the family and were painted various colours so that the fishermen could distinguish them from the others when they came home to land their catches.
Many of the locals are now professionals with families and work in the city of Málaga or in El Palo itself. Most of the houses are painted in more neutral colours nowadays but the houses still retain their individual characteristics.
El Palo Beach House is no exception and the exterior belies a modern and well-appointed interior with a surprising amount of space, the house is actually arranged as two apartments.
