Arcos de Almona Frigiliana by Ruralidays
About this villa rental
Nestled in Frigiliana, this attractive villa for $525 per night is a great option for your next break. Holiday home situated in the historic town of Frigiliana, in the region of La Axarquía, in the province of Malaga, Andalusia. This holiday home’s rustic but practical style makes its guests feel comfortable, in a private and intimate area, which at the same time is completely integrated in the life of this small town. The huge space is divided into a bedroom with a double bed, an original decorated bathroom with shower, a dining-living room with a wood stove that shares space with a completely equipped open kitchen, characterized by handmade Sevillian tiles. The nine enormous arch-shaped windows let an unbeatable light flood into the home during all year long. The 80 m2-wide covered terrace, the barbecue area and the private swimming pool make this holiday home a very privileged site in a peculiar environment. It is located in the town centre, however its main characteristics are quietness and intimacy, alongside with marvellous views over Frigiliana’s fields and white houses.

Our stay was absolutely outstanding. Not only was Javier an amazing host, but he was so helpful and kind too. He gave us so many tips and recommendations throughout our trip and is always available if you need to call him for anything at all. The villa itself was pristine and just beautiful. It is very private and perfect for couples wanting to get away. It is in an amazing location a short walk into the main square and a very short distance to restaurants bars and little shops. Our stay was perfect and we will be returning in the future for sure. Once again they were amazing hosts, they had everything in pristine condition and never disturbed and only contacted us if necessary or to give us recommendations. Perfect location, perfect house, perfect hosts.

I feel everything I say will fully reflect the views of the previous reviewer who captured everything we felt. The property is fantastic, clean, cosy and a beautiful patio space with various different spaces to enjoy at different times of the day, along with the fine plunge pool. Our welcome could not have been bettered and I plagiarise once more help with parking our car -secure parking but certainly couldn't have done it without Javier, the welcome pack was comprehensive and we wanted for absolutely nothing during our stay. We relaxed, we enjoyed and could very comfortably say we did feel we were in 'our home from home'. I think you'll gather from all this Javier and Rosario are the best of hosts and a joy to be around. I hope we will be back we loved everything.

Perfeito para uma férias relaxantes. Frigiliana é uma pequena vila encantadora.
Estava tudo muito limpo. A casa dispõe de tudo o que é necessário para umas mini férias. O terraço com barbecue, uma pequena piscina e uma vista deslumbrante para a serra é o ponto chave desta aconchegante casa.
Vários restaurantes, mini mercados a uma curta distância a pé. Chegava se à praia a uma curta distância de 10km de carro (Nerja).
Os anfitriões foram sempre muito amáveis e solícitos.
Com certeza voltaremos!

This property is fantastic, clean, cosy and with a beautiful patio space (we ate at home a few nights just to take advantage of it). Our host Javier was wonderful and couldn't have been nicer to us - helping us with our transport and also making sure the fridge was stocked with some essentials for us after our long trip. The property is very central and near lots of restaurants, bars and shops (although a word of warning - like most of Frigiliana, you do need to walk up some slopes to access it, so maybe not the best location for those unsteady on their feet). There's also an additional charge for air con usage (which was no issue for us but just for info). Many thanks for Javier for hosting us we will definitely be back!

Absolutely fantastic property for two people to thoroughly enjoy time in Frigiliana. The house is very spacious and also conveniently located if you are ok with a few steps (if not then perhaps Frigiliana in general would be a struggle for you). The roof terrace for the house is also very spatious and provides plenty of room to soak up the sun or retreat into the shade under the new covered pergola and the views are magnificent. Javier and Rosario are the perfect hosts, on hand to assist with anything you may need but also discrete enough to allow for your own space. The welcome pack is very generous and was particularly useful as we arrived in an afternoon of rain. First time in the village without our boys and what a perfect place to stay - cheers.

A great location in the historic part of Frigiliana village with lovely views from the rooftop terrace with its plunge pool and so handy for the shops and restaurants. We enjoyed our walks through the charming streets and lanes in the spring sunshine. It was great being back in this townhouse and Rosario and Javier were great hosts checking we had all we needed. Thanks again!

Everything about our holiday at this beautiful place was fabulous and the experience summarised by so many other reviews. Lovely hosts javier and family were welcoming, warm, helpful and unobtrusive. Nice welcome pack, spotless apartment with everything you need. Fantastic location with supermarkets and restaurants on the doorstep.

Javier and Rosario are brilliant owners. They provide a fantastic welcome pack and their home has everything you might need and is very clean and well presented. This house is situated in the heart of the village of Frigiliana and so the shops and restaurants are easily accessible. The views from the superb roof garden are stunning. Because of the location of the house, parking of a car is not possible outside the house, but the home owners arrange for the use of a parking space a few yards away. A lovely home in a wonderful village in a superb setting. Wonderful home, hosts and holiday. Definitely worth a visit.

Logement spacieux, jolie terrasse avec petite piscine pour se rafraîchir. Très agréable le soir pour prendre le frais et très calme. Quelques sorties autour de Frigiliana : Mijas, Antequera, Nerja et Competa.

My husband and I had such a wonderful holiday here. we knew the moment we arrived that it was going to be perfect. Javier and Rosario were so kind and we felt so welcome to their lovely spotlessly clean house. We loved the beautiful traditional style of the house with gorgeous tiles in the bathroom and kitchen. There was a very generous welcome pack which was much appreciated because we didn't have to rush out to the supermarket. The roof terrace was very spacious with shaded and sunny areas sun loungers and a great little pool to cool off. and look at the wonderful views . The wifi was very good and there was British t.v channels. We love Frigiliana and found this was our best rental yet it had everything, near town and the restaurants yet very quiet. Thanks Javier and Rosario hope to return next year

My second experience at this beautiful Villa, previously in 2012 and the place is as beautiful as ever. Extremely well equipped...all facilities we could require. As it was early in the year we found the evenings rather chilly however Javier and his son, Nicholas, scoured the village for logs and we had an amazing log fire (2 or 3 evenings) which kept us snuggly!! Daytimes were tremendous out on the well equipped terrace along with occasional dips in the plunge pool..yes it was actually warm enough to do that despite cool evenings! And of course, Frigiliana itself, we couldn't wish for more bars, restaurants and cafe's. Ate out every evening, some breakfast times..just glorious! Shall go again!

My wife and I decided to see out the cold Scottish winter by spending 3 months in Frigiliana. Living in the village was a great experience and the property is ideally located for shopping, eating, walking or just lazing in the winter sun on the spacious terrace enjoying the fantastic vista. I even ventured into the plunge pool on a particularly hot day. The apartment is spacious with all the amenities you will require and excellent WiFi. In the cool evenings the log burner is a treat with plenty of wood sourced by the owners. Regular linen changes were supplied and Rosario and Javier make excellent neighbours and are on hand to help with any emergency or offer advice and assistance if required. The also respect your privacy. Over all we enjoyed a 5 star experience, in a 5 star property with 5 star hosts.

The apartment was well equipped and came with a very generous welcome pack. Javier and Rosario were always to hand if you needed them but allowed us the privacy to enjoy our stay. Lovely holiday, perfect hosts. The views from the roof terrace were breathtaking. Highly recommended. We have already booked for 2015.

This house is the ideal place to get away and relax, the villa is outstanding,its private terrace looks over the beautiful whitewashed town of Frigiliana.

This is the perfect place to stay if you want to be in the heart of the beautiful village of Frigiliana. Javier and Rosario have created a lovely space which offers everything you would need for a very comfortable stay. The kitchen / dining / lounge space works really well, providing a cool and comfortable room which is spacious and very well equipped in all of its areas. The bedroom and bathroom are excellent too. The 'jewel in the crown' of the accommodation is undoubtedly the terrace. It has a delightful plunge pool, perfect for cooling down on hot days, as well as areas to lay in the sun or out, to sit quietly in the shade, or to eat looking out over wonderful views. All of the accommodation is finished to a very high standard and is a pleasure to stay in. The location is ideal for walking down the steps - or up if you are feeling energetic - into Frigiliana, to enjoy its narrow cobbled streets, traditional white washed houses and numerous bars and restaurants. Javier and Rosario were the perfect hosts. We couldn't recommend this holiday rental highly enough and will definitely look to stay there again.

This really beautiful, excellently equipped traditional style Andalusian home near the centre of Frigiliana is the ideal place to go for a truly relaxing break. The roof garden is amazing, with stunning views where you can relax in seclusion. Only a short walk to the village centre with a good selection of shops. Very good places to eat nearby where the cuisine is varied and of high standard. I would definitely recommend this location to anyone.

This villa is in a great location in the historical part of Frigiliana, with the beautiful narrow cobbled and tiled streets and lanes with steps or paths leading to various bars, restaurants, shops with great views over the surrounding country side, the mountains and down to the coast. Rosario and Javier are nice friendly hosts and we met Claudia their daughter too, who gave us our keys and showed my wife and I around on our arrival. The charming town house accommodation on the upper level of the building is mainly open plan with everything you need and the outside roof terrace including plunge pool was marvellous for enjoying the sunshine (yeah in October). A very good welcome pack was provided including bread, meats, eggs, water, fruit juice, wine, beer and all the basics you need to start of your holiday. We liked eating out and enjoyed the Garden Restaurant, Gusto, Taberna del Sacristan and our local (50 metres down the road) Bar Fandango. My wife and I hope to return again next year.

We had a fantastic holiday, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet relaxing break. I agree with all the other reviewers - Rosario and Javier are so warm and welcoming and considering that they live downstairs, they were never intrusive; just there when needed. The apartment is comfortable and the terrace is just lovely, filled with scented potted plants and you could just sit and stare at the view for days. It is spotlessly clean and tidy, and the welcome pack is more than generous. We have already booked for next year, it was that perfect.

We had a wonderful time staying in this apartment, it was lovely and clean with everything we needed, the terrace and views were outstanding. It is located in the village in walking distance of plenty of restaurants. As the apartment is located on steep steps, parking is not available outside but we paid extra for the parking space in a nearby garag e which was excellent and would recommend at busy times of the year. This is an excellent apartment with lovely hosts and would certainly recommend and would stay here again.

We have been visiting this villa for 8 years now and it just keeps getting better and better. The house is beautiful with everything you could possibly need. It is spotlessly clean with quality furnishings and decor. The kitchen has all the appliances you need as well as a great variety of utensils. Javier and Rosario leave a fabulous welcome pack which is second to none. Linen and towels, including pool towels are changed weekly. The terrace is fantastic with a plunge pool, bbq, lovely comfy furniture and a brand new pagoda to shade you from the heat of the day. The views are amazing looking over the rooftops and across the valley in front and the gorgeous hills to the rear. The attention to detail Javier and Rosario give to this house shows how much they care and are always happy to help out with anything you want. The best hosts a holiday maker could have. The house is in an ideal position within walking distance to all the fantastic restaurants and bars in the beautiful picturesque whitewashed village. A truly brilliant house.

We have stayed here twice now and have loved each visit. It is a cosy well equipped and homely apartment with so many added extras and so much thought given to guests and their needs for a week away. Javier and Rosario are helpful without being intrusive and will do everything to make your stay in Frigillana a special one. This apartment has a lovely outside space, a welcome plunge pool, built in barbie and comfy sun loungers, all perfect for a relaxing holiday. We are hoping to stay in another one of the villas owned by Javier and Rosario the next year and know that we will be received with a warm welcome. Would recommend this place, great for a couple wanting a self catering apartment within walking distance from good bars and restaurants in beautiful surroundings.

We recently had the privilege of staying in this beautiful house. We were welcomed with a lovely warm fire in the log burner and extremely generous welcome pack which kept us going for days. This house is very popular and it is no surprise that it gets booked up quickly. Javier and Rosario are amazing hosts and even invited us into their home for coffee on the morning we were leaving where they let us to store our luggage. Just wish we could have stayed for the duration of our stay. We will definitely be back. Just loved the house and the views from the pool area are stunning. See you soon and thankyou for your great hospitality :)

Hemos estado una semana en esta casa con el propósito de descansar y relajarnos antes de volver a comenzar con la rutina diaria del trabajo. Los objetivos han sido conseguidos con creces.
La casa tiene tal encanto que hemos pasado una semana fabulosa. La terraza tan bonita y bien cuidada con sus flores, su rincón para cenar y contemplar las estrellas, su piscinita para refrescarse, ... no le falta ni un detalle a la casa.
Luego la ubicación de la casa está en el mejor sitio que se podría tener en el pueblo.
También decir que los dueños de la casa, Rosario y Javier, son súper atentos y amables en todo momento. Cualquier cosa que necesites ahí está para ayudarte y resolverlo.
Sin duda, en cuanto podamos, repetiremos.
Muchas gracias y hasta pronto.
