Excellent villa with the most amazing views over the mountains and to the sea. The villa is a perfect place for peaceful retreat and at the same time a great location from which to explore Malaga and the region. In late October the pool was refreshing and enjoyable for the full family. Shopping is convenient in the stores in nearby village Colmenar where the Churrería opens in the morning for local breakfast. Carmen is an excellent host being incredibly helpful and attentive, communicating fast and timely in perfect English. All in all, our highest recommendations given.

A beautiful house. The view was amazing. The only small problem was finding a taxi that would come to the house because they did not understand the address, but with a little explanation they found it..! Carmen was amazing and gave us tips & responded quickly if we had any questions. We had an amazing & unforgettable trip 🙂

Top verblijf! Super mooie locatie en een ontzettend mooi uitzicht. Binnen een halfuurtje ben je in malaga, en ook colmenar is erg mooi!

This was a great house with a large comfortable terrace and an incredibly beautiful view. The quiet environment is very relaxing. Carmen always answered our questions promptly and even sent the children's shoes that we had forgotten there by post.

Maravillosa !!! Los mejores paisajes, la vista! Cómoda, limpia,todo perfecto para unos días de descanso. Sus anfitriones muy majos.

Lovely House! Great view, 10min to supermarket, clean, all you need in the house, sweet host. Really good stay.

Vistas inmejorables. Un sitio de 10.

Eine nette Gastgeberin, ein schönes Haus und eine wunderbare Aussicht.

Carmen is a great super host ! Thank You !

We trust Carmen a lot because for 5 years we spent our vacations in her beautiful house Lagar los Pilones (the best house we have known in 15 years traveling to Andalucia) .That is why, this last summer I wanted, unexpectedly, to extend my vacation and she offered me his newly opened house What to say about this House? The photos simply cannot do this incredible setting justice., On clear days you can see the sea, while at night time the lights from the coastal town of Velez Malaga shine bright in the distance. You can expect amazing morning lighting and ambience thanks to its privileged south east position. we witnessed some of the best sunrises we had ever seen! There are several terraces each having spectacular views and we'd alternate between them for mealtimes, sunset drinks and stargazing.We particularly liked the large pergola which offers the perfect amount of shade for outdoor meals and often used the a magnifica BBQ WEBER to make dinner (stopping at the supermarket for supplies on the way from Malaga airport is a good idea even if you find supermarkets near the house). There are lots of places in the sun and shade, whatever your preference. The house stayed nice and cool inside despite it being 35 degrees plus outside. Inside, Carmen has printed her style. The villa has 4 bedrooms and a large living room. All elegantly furnished and comfortable. In regards to privacy, even though you can spot other villas on the distant hillside, your location remains nicely secluded and quiet, which means you should not be overlooked. It's a place to truly relax, but close enough to the crowded beaches and resorts for day trips. We visited the beaches at Marbella and Nerja and Málaga, as well as heading to Granada one day to see the Alhambra which was definitely worth the 1 hour round trip. The villa is located in the mountains just north of Malaga city (25 minutes) and 7 minutes from the village of Colmenar, an authentic white-washed Spanish village. Here we have made our purchases. The local sausages are really good. There are many bars and restaurants. We loved La Taberna de Flores, in the center of town and dinner on the terrace of the Belen Restaurant. Here the food is authentic Spanish and the daily menu prices are very cheap.

We had a fantastic stay. The property is situated in a very peaceful spot. The views are incredible. The house is well equipped and Carmen was able to answer any queries we might have had. Thank you for sharing your lovely home.

We were 2 families of 4 to spend a week at Carmen's place. The house was perfect for us! it is big and quiet with the most amazing view. As we were there in April it was too cold to swin, but we can easily imagine that in summer you would enjoy the pool and the breeze of the mountains. Communication with Carmen was super smooth and she answered all our questions in less then 5 minutes each time. we do recommand the house for those who wants to visit the region, it is very well located.

Upeat vuoristonäkymät, kiva uima-allas. Rauhallinen, tilava. Sopii hyvin 8 hengelle ja lapsille.

Pasamos una semana maravillosa. La casa esta perfecta y lejos de la agitacion de la costa. Pudimos visitar los olrededores y aprovechar de la tranquilidad del lugar con un vista magnifico

Carmen is a great host. When the AC did not work, she bought a new and got it installed. Always available and helpful.

Logement parfait, dépaysant et proche de Malaga. Carmen nous a répondu à nos diverses questions rapidement et gentiment ! La maison est magnifique, nous sommes très content d’avoir réserver ce logement pour notre semaine de vacances !

Vi hade en underbar vecka! Carmens hus är en av de bästa Airbnb som vi bott i under de senare åren. Allt man behöver för en lugn och avkopplande semester finns här!

Super friendly and proactive host, good value for money accommodation, quiet area with great views and plenty of outdoor seating. Overall a lovely stay! Thanks a lot!

Maria del Carmen's home is a gem. We spent 6 nights in this beautiful property. It was a good base for exploring the area. We drove to Granada for the day, to Ronda, also Sentinel de las Bodegas and of course Malaga. Because the house is on top of a hill, its very fresh, and you dont need A/C. It was a nice relief when we arrived from our day trips in boiling hot Andalucia. We also used the pool on the hottest days. The area is beautiful with little towns set in picturesque hills and beautiful country roads. It gets less tourism so it was very quiet and pristine. From the house you can see a few of the little towns. We had everything we needed and more. Maria del Carmen was always quick to answer our questions and very friendly. I will definitely recommend this house if you are in the area.

A great spot if you’re looking for a quiet relaxing getaway with friends & family. The house has amazing views, outdoor entertaining areas, pool and enough room for us all. Note, the house is remote and you will need a car to travel to shops & sites. We travelled with 6 and accommodated us comfortably but the people mover was a hairy drive up a steep hill with tight corners. Loved seeing the shepherd in the early morning with his flock.
