Beautiful place, great views
The place is very nice, the views and swimmingpool very enjoyable . Juan Carlos (owner)and Placido (gardener) are very helpful and makes all that they can to help you during your stay I would rate 5 stars if the internet connection is improved. For holidays is great but if you need to remote working the quality is not enough. Be aware that the place is beautiful and the roads to reach the place are quite narrow and with stones for a couple of kilometres (not a problem for a normal car).

Una casa muy cómoda para ir con amigos
Es una casa algo perdida, con un acceso dificil para vehiculos pero totalmente accesible, entramos con turismos normales sin mayor problema. Estar algo más pérdida para mi la hace aún mejor sientes relax y silencio a cualquier hora. Muy cómoda para compartir con amigos, la piscina, bbq y cualquier cosa muy recomendable. Balcón mirando a Nerja donde corre mucho aire y se está super cómodo a cualquier hora del día

Estancia divertida en un lugar tranquilo
Lugar tranquilo y relajado, donde poder desconectar. Casa muy cómoda y con una piscina que hace la estancia a niños y mayores muy agradable. Su ubicación apartada hace que las vías de acceso sean algo difíciles para aquellas personas temerosas de caminos estrechos y con curvas.

D’ excellentes vacances dans un environnement exceptionnel
Le cadre, la vue, le calme et une température extérieure idéale avec un légère brise entre 11h et 18h, idéale pour supporter les températures andalouses, nous avons passé d excellentes moments dans cette villa andalouse qui est très bien située entre un petit village blanc de montagne et une petite station balnéaire très charmante.

Great place
Hidden away about 15 minutes from town in the middle of a mango farm. This is a real traditional Spanish villa. It has everything you could need. Very peaceful and the pool area is lovely. Kitchen really well equipped and a great outdoor bbq

CHARMANT CORTIJO ANDALOU
Très agréable maison perdue entre Frigiliana et Nerja ,au milieu des manguiers et avocatiers avec plusieurs terrasses dont une avec une jolie vue sur la vallée et la mer.Environnement très calme de par son emplacement ,isolement garanti. Le jardin autour de la maison est joli avec notamment un magnifique bougainvillier rose ,des ibiscus,des citronniers,manguiers... Maison très bien entretenue,propre et bien équipée ,il ne manquait rien . La piscine qui est ensoleillée du matin au soir est d'une température idéale avec transats et parasols. Le soir il y a toujours un petite brise qui rend l'air beaucoup plus agréable qu'à Nerja.Nous n'avons jamais eu besoin de la climatisation .Seuls les ventilateurs suffisent. La literie est correcte , les draps et les serviettes sont changés toutes les semaines. Juan et son épouse sont très accueillants et disponibles en cas de problèmes.Le jardinier est aussi charmant si on parvient à comprendre son espagnol car il a un fort accent andalou! Seul petit détail qu'il serait bon de signaler dans l'annonce est peut être le chemin d'accès car il est très accidenté sur la fin du trajet et il faut 10 minutes pour faire les 3 km qui séparent la maison de la route principale. Pas de problèmes pour nous car nous avions des suv et que nous avons l'habitude mais ça peut être compliqué pour d'autres vacanciers. La tranquillité se mérite un peu ! Nous avons passé de très bonnes vacances dans cette charmante maison. Le wifi fonctionne correctement .

Most Amazing holiday ever we had!!!
We really enjoyed our 3 weeks stay-holiday in this place. First of all,we were really impressed with such nice and very friendly landlords. I would say it was first time that I met holiday landlords like them (husband and wife). They met us in Frigiliana and guided all the way to the villa. Spent some time with us showing everything around in and out. They let us to stay in their lovely place feeling so free, so it made us feel that it is our own house. It was really friendly feeling. Feeling, like we knew each other for ages. The way to villa from main road a bit tricky, for about 20 min. But we drove there from London by our 9 seater transporter, as we are big family, and actually managed to get used to these tiny roads. View around the villa are really beautiful, especially sun rise,and sun set. Swimming pool not so big, but quiet safe for kids. Starting with shallow to deep end. Around the villa many sitting areas. We really liked the villa inside. In living room table with 8 chair around. Smart tv. And really comfy sofas. Nice kitchen with all things. Dishwasher, big fridge, and most of things I enjoyed-coffee machine with special jug like a thermos holding coffee hot. Also there 4 double bedrooms, and 2 toilets-which is really useful. We were driving out nearly every day. Nearest town Nerja-about 25 min drive. There lots of different shops. For food shopping we went to local Lidl, or Mercadona. We went to popular Buriana beach in Nerja several times. There a lot of water entertainment to use. There also a lot of different restaurants and shops, and also really nice "Paradise" cocktail bar (I really enjoyed Pina Colada). Also there a lot of different places to drive not so far from this place. We visited aqua park. We drove to couple of lakes one day. Every time when we we coming back to villa, we were enjoying to be away from everyone. To stay only with a family in such a peacefull place. So it is everything available. You can escape and stay at the villa and fully enjoy with the all beauty of nature, and no one around. At the same time you can drive away for a bit busy life if you feel so. My point of view- I REALLY ENJOYED IT! AND WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND IT TO EVERYONE TO TRY!!! Thank you Juan Carlos (landlord) for all kindness you gave to our family. It was really positive start of holiday, when we met you and your wife. And I think it is really important to have good landlords during holiday. So we were really lucky to met you.×××

Beautiful rural Spanish villa
Juan met us and showed us to the property, and checked up on us by email periodically to see if we needed anything, which was very helpful. This villa was a perfect getaway. It was in a quiet location off the beaten track in the countryside about 15 minutes from Frigiliana. The view of the sea and mountains provided tranquil peace...ideal for a relaxing family vacation. There was a beautiful pool - a real gem, multiple sunbeds, tables under trees and on the veranda, barbecue...countless spots to rest, dine, relax and enjoy the surrounding beauty. This was truly a beautiful house in perfect condition and in true Spanish style, with everything in great working order. It was fully supplied with nice linens, towels, kitchen and cleaning necessities. Our 3 kids said it was their favorite vacation spot ever because of the delightful pool and because there was so much room to roam. We all loved it.

Beautiful rural Spanish farmhouse
The house is lovely, traditional and comfortable with everything you could need. The kitchen is very well equipped and the hot water for 7 people showering never ran out. The house was very clean and well maintained. Juan and Helga met us and showed us to the property, very helpful. The two areas for eating outside were perfect and the views were stunning. We were three generations visiting; mum and dad, gran and grandad and three girls 12-18 years. We enjoyed using the BBQ outside and the children got great use of the pool. I would recommend the property highly to others. We had a huge nine seater transporter that we hired at the airport, it was three seats wide, I would advise anyone using the house to go for a smaller vehicle, or perhaps two smaller cars if you have a large number to transport as the narrow, winding, rural roads were quite tricky with the big vehicle. If you want to get away from it all, to fantastic views, great house but only a short distance to beach and town then this house is a great family choice.

Excellentes vacances
Nous avons passé d'excellentes vacances dans ce décor fabuleux et cette maison très agréable et confortable. Juan Carlos et sa femme nous ont très gentiment accueilli avant de nous laissé les clés de ce petit paradis. La maison est particulièrement bien équipée, rien ne manque ! Le cadre est exceptionnel : vue sur la mer, au milieu des champs de manguiers, avocats, oliviers ... L'isolement est quasi-total et très appréciable. Si nous séjournons à nouveau dans cette région, nous reviendrons sans aucun doute dans cette maison !!! Merci encore pour cette heureuse découverte
