A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Incredible having such a welcoming, silent and enjoyable place 25 minutes from Nalaga Airport. The staff, the rooms, the atmosphere and the facilities were top notch. Best place to rest!”
“Spent wonderful days at this hotel! Situated in a beautiful location in the mountains - only about 30 minutes to Malaga and Marbella. Perfect combination of privacy and proximity to the coast. Especially liked the well-maintained territory: greenery, silence, swimming pool with comfortable sun beds - everything disposes to rest. Breakfast on the terrace was a real pleasure: excellent choice - eggs, yogurt, fresh fruit, delicious bread, meat and cheese. Everything you need for a good start to the day. The rooms are very cozy, cleanliness is impeccable, everything you need is there. A separate plus - free parking on the territory. We had lunch in the restaurant at the hotel - we liked both calamari and steak. Quality, tasty, with good service. Thank you very much for the warm welcome, we will definitely come back again!”
“A wonderful, peaceful stay in renovated stables with a restaurant, pool and municipal museum on the premises. Service was excellent, kind and personable while competent and professional. Great location to make day trips to Málaga, Ronda and Granada.”
“This is a very nice hotel. Host was very friendly and rooms were lovely. The hotel is totally pet friendly and the food in the restaurant was absolutely amazing. I can definitely recommend this hotel if you want to be a bit further away from all the tourists and a bit more into nature. I absolutely enjoyed my stay here.”
“We stayed three nights in this lovely hotel. We had a family room right across the swimming pool which was ideal for our kids. The food of the restaurant was very nice. The staff is friendly. We really enjoyed the breakfast, we could press frech orange juice! homemade egg and cake. From here we visited Ronda and Malaga. We recommend!”
“Very peaceful, excellent Service, nice rooms, great food. All in all a great location to make trips around Málaga with a peaceful and calm stay.”
