Wonderful home for your stay in Malaga

The villa was magnificent and was perfect for a family group of 9 adults and 2 children. The villa had a great pool, plenty of bathrooms and was very close to the beach and an excellent bus service into Malaga.

The villa is stunning and very well equipped with everything you would need for a group/family holiday. The location is good, between Málaga and Torremolinos and just a few minutes walk from a beach with a bar/restaurant and a very well equipped local shop. Although it's close to the airport, we weren't bothered by the planes going overhead. We used Uber/Bolt to get into Málaga, at about €16-18 a time - it's a bit more if you use a street taxi. The 5 bus, which stops very close to the villa, also goes there and to Torremolinos in the other direction. We hadn't realised that central Málaga was not within walking distance iourould take us at least 2 hours, some of which was around the nature reserve not far from the villa. It took us longer than 2 hours as we stopped for lunch in one of the lovely places to eat along the huge Misericordia beachfront. Estafania had kindly shopped for us from a list I sent her. Aldi is about a €6 taxi away, though it's easily walkable as well. There is a huge McArthur Glen outlet a short taxi drive away with lots of bargains and plenty of places to eat and drink. We went there for wet gear as it was cool and rainy when we were there in Match 2024. These were mammoth and spectacular, going on throughout the day and the night in a route around the centre of Málaga - this added and extra element to the holiday that we weren't expecting.

We had a fantastic 10 days, the villa is immaculate. We travelled with 5 adults 3 teens and 2 children and had plenty of room for all of us with enough bathrooms and showers. The shower room in the pool is very handy particularly after a day on the beach. The undercover pool was brilliant as it allowed us to stay in the pool for as long as we like without the need to worry about sun cream. The only issue we had with the villa was the ants, although not the fault of the owners we understand it cant be helped but feel a little bit of warning could have helped us prepare (we lost a fair bit of food the first few days), once we realised the issues we were able to have a solution, it wasnt a probelm for the rest of the holiday. Location: the villa is located in an area for locals, which really added to our holiday. We made an effort with our spanish and were made very welcome in all the places we ate. There is a brilliant local shop and a few restaurant within walking distance. Car hire is not needed the villa taxis and uber would be fine (we did hire a car, the villa has off road parking for multiple cars). There is a really good shopping mall a few minutes away, we did use uber eats from here a few times when we couldnt be bothered cooking or going out, which was very handy. We would definitely go back for another visit and hopefully that will be soon
