This HUGE house is perfect if what you want is get-together with lots of people.
The house is perfectly equipped to provide for a large party (it was 28 adults in our case): a lot of the bedrooms have an en-suite, the kitchen is fit to cater for 30+ and the common areas, inside and outside, are simply fabulous. The perfect plus: the orange trees we had unlimited access to (all you need is a volunteer to press 10 litres of fresh orange juice every morning!). It's not over the top, has everything you need, basically it's nice and comfortable without being excessive.
When we got there, the house was clean and ready, all we had to do was slip into our swimsuits (which be bravely did, even though it was February).
Theresa was a great help before, during and after our stay. Her recommendations and tips were spot on and a massive help, and she was able to help us out with all of our general queries (shopping, transport, activities...), and made us feel very welcome and at home, even though we had felt our questions were slightly excessive before getting there.
The place is also perfectly child-friendly (the pool is secured), and party friendly (as we can confirm...).
All of our friends were impressed with the place, wondered how we'd found such a gem and it certainly made our do even more magical.
I would definitely recommend the Cortijo to anyone looking for a place spared from busy everyday life, a place to have your won retreat, whatever kind it may be.
