We were so happy to finally get to our beautiful holiday home where we enjoyed the private pool, the spacious and comfortable living area and bedrooms. Everything that was needed was in the housegarden/pool area. We loved how secure the property was. Great location, quiet and easily accessible to the local town and Mijas and great choices of beaches close by. Loved every minute of it, thank you 😊

Great house, nice hosts

We had a wonderful vacation in the house! When it was briefly interrupted by a forest fire nearby, the hosts were very helpful and considerate, and we were refunded for the day we had to relocate till the fire passed. The house is spacious and has everything you need. Communication in English with the host was not always perfect, but his kind daughter helped out when needed, so it all worked out great. Wonderful house, wonderful town, and an overall good experience :)

Nice rural finca, somewhat outdated

The house is a very nice old finca, close to Alhaurin el Grande city center, with very nice restaurants. The owner mr. Cristobal is very friendly and easy to communicate with. Pool is very nice, however the terrace could use some renovation also the garden need some monthly maintenance. Lots of goods, covers for sunbeds, sunbeds and a lot of kitchen equipment should be replaced, for example the perculator for coffee, you cannot really let your guests use this anymore! For the rest lots of privacy surrounding the finca.
