Great apartment

Apartment was lovely, very spacious, clean and brilliant outside space. Absolutely everything you would ever need. Only 15 minutes walk to the beach and supermarket down the road. If Mijas is somewhere you want to visit then definitely would stay here!

Fabulous Apartment a home from home.

Just back from a weeks holiday in this fabulous apartment. It is modern, spacious and spotlessly clean and extremely well equipped with everything you could possibly need. It feels like a home from home. The location of the apartment is fantastic with a short walk into town and La Cala itself is a lovely resort. Would definitely book again and will also be recommending it to friends.

Perfectly placed

Great apartment for 4 people. Plenty of outdoor space and furniture which we used all the time. Bedrooms and bathrooms are decent size but the ensuite bathroom has the most fantastic shower. This apartment is perfectly positioned for walking to the copious amounts of bars, restaurants and cafes. We would highly recommend staying here as it is a 15/20 min walk across the motorway bridge to fantastic places to eat. Defo try Konfusion and La Terraza and also Olivia's for a cocktail is you fancy splashing out on holiday!

Amazing apartment!!

I just wanted to come on an leave this review as the place was absolutely amazing, so clean, so accommodating and in a fantastic location! Lidl on the door step, restaurants around the corner and the beach a 10/15 minute walk away. We have absolutely loved our holiday, we just wish we could have stayed longer. Everything we need was in the apartment, and Christine (cleaner/key collection) was amazing she helped us with getting places and talking in Spanish to our taxi airport drives and they didn’t turn up. The weather has been so hot, the pool area is so nice and everyone is friendly. We couldn’t of asked for a better holiday - we will definitely be returning. Xx

Fantastic apartment!

This apartment has everything you need and has been thoughtfully fitted out to a high standard; it felt like a home away from home for us. We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending it to anyone and would definitely stay again. The large balcony is a great space to relax. There was good communication from both the owners and Christine, the property manager, leading up to our stay and Christine met us when we arrived to let us in. The apartment is in a lovely, secure, quiet complex which is 15 minutes walk to the centre of La Cala. There is plenty of parking and a Lidl at the bottom of the road. The only thing which could have perhaps improved our stay would have been an extra set of towels and bed linen as we were staying for 10 days but a very minor niggle. Thanks for a great holiday :)

Many thanks for your lovely comments Michelle, so pleased you enjoyed the apartment and holiday, and we do hope that you will consider staying again. We have reflected upon your comment about the linen and towels, as we do for all recommendations to improve the holiday experience. From now on, we will offer clean towels and linen to anyone staying longer than 7 nights, instead of 14 days as previously. All the best, and thanks again, Steve & Sue

Comfortable stay and a great week

Review Owners Direct/Home Away - La Cala We had a wonderful week. We really liked your apartment. Especially the two bathrooms, the huge patio where we had all our meals (and drinks) and that it was situated so close to Lidl. Very important and practical details for us. The swimming pool was loveley especially late afternoon when the sun had warmed it up further. My guess is that the water temperature was approx 35 degrees in the afternoon. It felt like diving into a jacuzzi :-)) We REALLY appreciated the pool towels. It is so much easier not having to pack wet and sandy towels for the trip back. This was a great extra bonus. We also appreciate that there were some spices and other stuff in the pantry, fridge and freezer. Very helpful! I was so hungry after the trip (only snacks on both flights) so I dreamed of an apple in the car and then there where apples in the bowl on arrival - amazing how little things can make you so happy!!!! We liked it that it was so calm and quiet at night/evenings. It was really easy to get to the beach as well and what a beach. Huge and beautiful. An awful lot of people but still it didn't feel crowded. The kids (and the father) played in the slides . We went for the long walk to Riviera and back. Loving the board walk although I'm not sure all the people living right next to it are so thrilled with all the new "traffic"... We went to Belamádena one day to see some friends and we went to the Parque de la Paloma. Our daugther loved it. It was great in the evening with all animals running around everywhere. The hens and roosters up in the trees. Very beautiful park. We really recommend a visit to this park after sunset especially with small children! We also went to the Bioparc in Fuengirola. Also great place for adults and children with a lot of shade and places to sit and rest in the heat! We took a trip up to Mijas Pueblo. Beautiful little village with amazing views overlooking the sea and the mountains. Many hours were spent at the pool area and on the terrace. The building was nice and well kept and the area felt extremely safe. The one thing we missed (since we are Swedish) was a coffee maker although we got really used to the percolator in the end! Thank you ever so much for a great holiday and stay in your second home. We will think back when the darkness and cold comes to Sweden in the Autumn. Best Regards, Mia, Mikael, Elias (13), Hampus (12) and Denise (9)

Very enjoyable holiday in lovely apartment

Cala de Mijas is the ideal resort to get around without the need to hire a car as there is a regular bus service, which is just what we were looking for. We stayed in this apartment for 3 weeks, and would have been happy to stay longer. The location was ideal - just a short walk to the supermarket, restaurants and beach. It's spacious, clean, with a wonderful outside area to eat and relax. We prefer to self cater as it offers greater flexibility and appreciated things such as hand wash, washing up liquid, washing powder, tea, coffee, even beach towels all provided - we have never known that before! Christine was there to meet us on arrival, checked with us later in the holiday that everything was okay, and was happy for us to stay in the apartment until ready to leave for our evening flight rather than check out early, which was a great help. We couldn't recommend this property more, and would love to return.

Perfection. Home from home.

The whole process of booking, check in, check out etc was simple and painless with the owners Steve and Sue readily available to assist whenever required. The apartment has a good layout with a very large balcony with dining table and chairs and sofa style seating to relax on. The balcony gets the sun in the morning and it was lovely to have breakfast there. I am struggling to think of any negatives, the only down side would be that there are no sun loungers at pool and unless you have foldable loungers you have to use the grass which is not too comfortable. The location is excellent, situated in a quiet area, 3 minutes walk to Lidl and a further 7 to 8 mins to the beach or possibly 10 mins to centre of La Cala. The apartment had everything to ensure a stress free break and Christine, who met us at complex was very helpful in explaining how various items operated as well as a folder which covered all aspects of apartment living, nice touch and very informative. Overall, a lovely apartment where we felt at home and would love to return to when we revisit La Cala. Many thanks to Steve and Sue for allowing us to use your apartment, a fantastic holiday was had by all. Kind regards Graeme and Bronagh.

Lovely apartment

Can’t fault the apartment, it was very clean, spacious and modern with a large terrace. If you’re wanting to go the beach or into La Cala you need to be reasonably mobile as the only access is over a big bridge and the apartment is up a bit of a hill. We found some lovely places to eat out and also ate in a couple of nights.
