Detached Villa El Tomillar in Frigiliana / Nerja

The host was helpful and proactive. The villa would benefit from some maintenance and refurbishment. We had a few issues with plumbing in the bathrooms but these were quickly resolved by our host. He also purchased some equipment for the kitchen that was missing. Comfortable beds, extra linen and towels in villa. Outside the loungers round the pool were old and stained and the covers were dirty. If villa was fully occupied there were only 4 loungers and 2 of them did not recline. The photos online of the terraces do not match what is in the garden and there was only 1 shaded area to eat. There were no comfortable reclining chairs/sofa/coffee table to relax on outside except by the pool. If you have a large car the gates to get into the property are quite narrow so beware you may not be able to drive it in.

We loved this house! The pool was sparkling clean. It was near enough to Nerja that we could run into town in 10 minutes. It was spacious with good parking. If I had any suggestions, I would have liked to have a few more basics in the kitchen and bathroom — some coffee and basic bath products. Also the stove and oven were difficult to use because the writing was worn off and you couldn’t tell what was off or on.

As a group of five adults we loved this property. It was perfect for our needs. There was ample room for all of us. We enjoyed the yard & pool. The location was perfect for what we wanted to do & see in the area. Christian was so helpful with recommendations & all of his recommendations lived up to expectations. We would definitely stay here again on a return trip. We wish we could have stayed longer.

We had a fantastic holiday. Villa and pool are beautiful. Owner very helpful. Highly recommend. (5 stars)

Great holiday in a lovely villa in a very peaceful area halfway between Nerja and Frigiliana. No English TV stations are available but luckily football can be understood in any language!! Christian was very helpful and answered all our questions.

Loved the large kitchen. Had plenty of room to spread out and relax! Cooked several meals, which was great! Lots of places to just hang and relax! Also great location - easy to get from there to towns like Granada, Cordoba, Ronda and Nerja! Lots of fun!

We stayed at the Villa for three nights on our vacation in Spain. It was an excellent choice. There were three couples. We had plenty of room, the house was very comfortable and the pool was great. I would recommend it to anyone visiting Nerja and the surrounding area. I messed up the directions to the property and Christian drove down into Nerja to show us how to get the house. It was easy to find - if I had read the directions Yolanda sent to me.

Lovely villa in quiet area, only a few minutes from Nerja and Frigiliana. Great base to explore the area. Christian was a very friendly host. The villa has been upgraded mostly, however the kitchen area still needs some attention. We had electrical problems which Christian valiantly attempted to fix, and it was Easter, but needs to be addressed.
