Luxury authentic cortijo, private pool, magnificent seaviews, wheelchairfriendly

We enjoyed a week of vacation here. 3 generations, 2 children (1,5 and 5 years old) and 4 adults. The access to and from Malaga was easy in a rented car. The home fully lived up to our expectations and further beyond. The house was charming, the decor, the history and the surroundings, including the garden and the most tranqulinzing views over the valley and the sea. The house was perfect for just hanging out, spending time together and was also a nice base for trips to the caves in Nerja and Frigiliana. The communication with the owner worked out perfectly, and the written information he send prior to our arrival about the house and practical things was very handy. The house was well equipped, including kitchen facilities. We had some small requests, which were handled by contact to Anna and Antonio, who watches out for the house, doing cleaning and maintanance. Minor things on the down side were: imprecision in the location details on Homeaway.com. It did not look like there would be any neighbours close by, but there were. However, the place is very private. Antonio and a colleague met us at the house on the day of arrival. He introduced us to the house, which was nice. However, because he had been busy working at other vacation houses that day, he still had work to do in the garden later that evening, even though we had settled down for eating our dinner at appr. 6 o'clock that evening. However, we acknowlegde that maintanance and cleaning takes time and hard work. All in all a wonderful and relaxing holiday. We would love to come back and have already recommended the place to others. Thank you

We are a family of 4 (kids aged 10 and 4 years old) and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this house. It is spacious and very clean. Although rustic this house is very well equipped with everything you could need. The air conditioning in the bedrooms is excellent and welcome on hot evenings. The pool and the surrounding area are fabulous. Very clean and well maintained. The views are spectacular and well worth the short journey up the hill. We had no problems at all and would love to return here sometime. We would highly recommend a stay here!

The house is as per the pictures shows. It is up in the hills behind Frigliana & on the edge of the National park. The house is v well equipped, has a well maintained pool & a lovely garden with a magnificent view. The host, Adrian, is v responsive and keen to help & the manager was great, taking us up to the property on our arrival at night. That was needed as the road up is v steep and twisty with a few hairpins. My main issue was that the house is nearly 5km (up a steep road) from Frigiliana (one of the pretty white towns in costa del sol) & not the 1 mile described in the website & about 11km from Nerja rather than the 3 miles in the describtion. So it is quite isolated though there are a couple of restaurants nearby & in the summer they are open later & of course it would be bright rather than dark & cold (one had no heating the day we went & was feezing). We would not have taken the place had the correct milage been given. We were unlucky with the weather initially & the house is v much a summer house as its large & a bit drafty, though it does have central heating. It is v lovely & prob is v cool in summer. Also the chimmney wasn't working v well & we had a house full of smoke the second time we lit the fire & so were unable to use it again which was a shame.

A fabulous property. Spacious, traditional with everything you could possibly need. Clean and comfortable with excellent outdoor and indoor space. We were 2 families of 4 and there was plenty of space for all of us. The view is exceptional, the pool an absolute bonus and of course not forgetting the lovely Antonio who is on hand to help whenever you need it. Will absolutely return again. Don't hesitate, just book it.

We were a large familly with with our elderly mother who really appreciated the handicap facilities. We enjoyed the atmosphere of the old house, which was very charming, the large kitchen and the fantastic views. The house has a perfect position on the top of the hill, and away from the village. The pool was wonderful, and we stayed most of the time around the water. Antonio was very helpful and Adrian had given us great help with the guide to the house as well as the surroundings. Truly a little paradise. We hope to return.

We stay in the house for 2 weeks. We loved the house, garden en swimmingpool. Frigiliana is a nice village in the mountains en near the sea. You can make nice walkings in the neighbour!

After enjoying the adorable Andalusian highlights for two weeks, we spent one delightful, relaxing week in Cortijo Los Almendros in Frigiliana. The house is a very original, nice, clean and attractive place, very complete, with plenty of room and personal touches everywhere. We were just the two of us and only used the left side of the house with the charming bedroom and the bathroom where also physical disabled people could stay very well. On the very nice terraces we spent many, many relaxing moments during days and nights, enjoying the gorgeous view. Also the garden and swimmingpool were very attractive. We made some tours in the neighbourhood to Frigiliana, Nerja, the beach and also a small walkingtour. The attractive sounding walkingtours we save for, perhaps, a next time, because our feet needed some rest after all those highlights. A great place to complete this memorable journey.

Great large house, with all equipments needed. We were with a group of 8 persons, all different ages, and really loved it. Rural setting, few nice restaurants nearby, great place to start a walk deep into mountains. Swimming pool perfect for the kids and large garden to play (watch small children). Clean property and well maintained, loved the housekeeper/ manager! Would really recommend this propery to anyone! Restaurant we loved was at acebuchal.

We had the greatest holiday last autumn, not in the least because of the great atmosphere of Cortijo Los Almendros. Spacious house, good beds, clean, good service of the owner and their maintainer (who speaks English perfectly). The views are amazing from every point of the garden, house. And although it's a quiet area, there are a few good bars and restaurants within walking distance. We recommend this place to anyone and will be back for sure!!

Great, charming property, lovely area. Ideal mix of nature, sea and culture in Andalusia. Nice owner and local maintainer, luxury & comfort in the middle of nature...! Would recommend this to anyone, when you like to stay in rural and rustic environment.
