Spectacular 6-bed Villa, huge 18m HEATED pool, stunning views

Wonderful house. We were there in week 7. We had a great stay. The pool is perfect both warm and you can actually swim due to the length of it. The different houses works really well and the outside areas are shielded from wind and has many nice sun areas even in winter

We had the most amazing week. The villa is clean, comfortable and set in a beautiful location with amazing views. It’s an extremely quiet location but is set perfectly for those who wish to explore. Frigiliana is less than 5 minutes by car (there are very reliable taxis and a bus stop just outside the villa too) and Nerja less than 10 minutes. We hired cars, which were useful for the supermarket, but otherwise we made use of the bus and taxis to get around. The villa was so well equipped with everything you need for your stay. The beds and linen were so comfortable. I would give more than 5 stars if I could! The pool was absolutely amazing! We spent every day by the pool, and having the pool house is a god send with toilet facilities and kitchen meaning we didn’t need to keep walking up to the main house. We even swam at night time! The owner, Andrew, was fantastic at communicating prior and post stay, and Oscar was always on hand at the villa if we needed anything. We can’t wait to come back again next year!

What a fantastic Villa. The photos and description on the Vrbo property page show off how fantastic this villa with its secluded location and those brilliant mountain views that make this Villa such an outstanding place to holiday but to be honest no photo can truly capture the splendour of La Mariquitas it has to be seen to fully appreciate what a splendid holiday destination this is. We have stayed in many villas across the whole of Spain but this villa far out passes any of these previous locations by miles. There were 9 adults and one 3 year old in our group and at no time did we feel limited on space. The pool is the largest we have ever had the use of and gated for extra security. The pool is well maintained and warm with plenty of sunbeds with areas of sun and shade. The quality of fixtures and fittings provided that extra level of luxury. The place is very well equipped and we found everything we required. With the town of Frigliana just up the road and Nerja just a short drive away you have all you need on your doorstep but the added bonus you have that quite isolationAndrew our host has been absolutely brilliant answering any question I asked promptly and the pre-joining information he provided answered so many questions before we arrived. He said we would not be disappointed with the Villa and he was so right. Oscar the property manager was there to meet us on a arrival and provided a comprehensive tour of accommodation and facilities

The Villa, the scenery, the weather were all absolutely breathtaking. Frigiliana lived up to the hype of being one of the prettiest villages in Spain. A vista from just about any area in the Villa was jaw dropping and the pictures don’t do it justice. From the moment we booked, Andrew was there to help and assist with every aspect of our booking. Extra details, clear instructions and incredibly helpful whenever we needed him. Upon arrival, Oscar was there for everything else. Nothing was too trivial and Oscar made himself available at all times to assist us if we needed taxis’s booking, clarity on local knowledge or local attractions and eateries. The Villa was stunningly laid out, beautifully decorated and the pool area was where we were automatically drawn. Every sleeping area felt as luxurious as each other and maintained the privacy from the others. Nerja Caves is a must! Apparently one of the best caves in Europe and we couldn’t argue against that.Frigiliana is a lovely day of walking, exploring and emmersing ourselves in the local culture. Nerja is great for shopping, dining and a lovely little beach by the shopping central.Prices for eating out were way cheaper than the UK and of awesome quality and quantity. Foot Note: It’s hilly!! The walk up to Frigiliana is enough to get you out of breathe and the heart beating, so less abled visitors took advantage of the local taxi services that were really good and very prompt. If you are thinking about booking, Do It!

We had a great family week at “La Maraquitas” in February with nice weather.Great house with plenty of space inside and outside. Private places too. The pool was super. The area is Quite. Short distance to beautiful Frigiliana. Can highly recommend.

Difficult to fault. Very spacious accommodation in large gardens with super large pool. Bedroom and bathrooms well laid out to accommodate our mixed group of couples and singles. Very well equipped; never ran low on glasses, crockery or cutlery, which has often happened at previous rentals. The large pool was a real treat, as were all outdoor spaces with many seating/relaxing areas. Made full use of barbecue, pool table and ping pong. Spectacular views all around and easy access to Frigliana and Nerja made this a great choice for us. Would definitely return.

Our family of 11 had a great stay at the villa. We stayed here to celebrate my fathers 75th birthday. The kids loved the pool - the adults too :) - plenty of space for all of us: spacious and peaceful rooms and multiple dining options. The location is really quiet, but Frigliana and Nerja are only 5 minutes by car. Great hike from the house to Frigliana through the Rio Higuerion. Quick communication from the owner who was very thoughtful and cooperative! I highly recommend staying here

Wonderful in all ways! Photos and descriptions of the villa interior and exterior provide accurate information. Everything inside the house (and the pool) was very clean. What a brilliant idea to have two separate apartments in addition to the main house, on the property. This was perfect for our extended family gathering. Plenty of space for parking cars next to the house, inside the locked gate, was convenient and secure. We appreciated the comfortable seating inside the house, on the deck and around the pool. The wi-fi was great. Communication with owner Andrew, and on-site manager Oscar was fantastic. Large grocery store & fuel station are very close. Frigiliana, Nerja and Malaga are interesting, fun, clean places to explore and are our favorite towns in Spain.

We have just returned from an amazing family holiday in Andrews stunning Villa, Its situation nestled just below Frigilliana was very peaceful and relaxing and we enjoyed many evenings on the veranda watching the sun go down sipping some chilled vino blanco .I would recommend hiring a car for your stay or use the local bus service which is located just 2 mins from the villa as the walk into Frigilliana is rather steep .The swimming pool is truly amazing and it was in use everyday. A big thanks must go to Oscar the property manager who was really friendly and very helpful to us all week especially sorting out our grocery deliver on our first evening.

The villa Casa las Mariquitas is a truly fantastic villa for up to 12 people and in a superb location situated between Nerja and Frigiliana with superb views to the mountains and down to Nerja. The whole villa (3 bedrooms/2 bathrooms/living/ inside and outside dining/huge kitchen), garden appartment (bedroom/living/kitchenette/bathroom) and pool appartment (2 bedrooms/living/large shower room) are all beautifully presented and maintained and absolutely every item that you need has been thought of and provided to make your stay as seamless and enjoyable as possible. The highlight is undoubtedly the the magnificent pool (heated if required at additional cost) and the beautiful surrounding gardens and magnificent views. The villa has adequate parking for 3-4 cars, and although the road (Calle del Secadero) leading from the main road is mostly unmade, it is easily navigable for cars, mini buses and coaches (we had a 16 seater coach and a 32 seater coach on 4 occasions). I would also highly recommend the use of an outside catering company (recommended to us by the property manager) if only for 1 night, we had 4 different Paellas for different allergies and dietary requirements, the food was expertly prepared and the food absolutely delicious and at a reasonable cost. Overall, the holiday we had for 10 family members and 2 friends was one of the best we have had, made even more memorable due to this fantastic villa and its superb location, highly recommend.
