Perfect in every way possible. An idyllic get away but close enough to explore the area if you wish. We did a day trip to the Alhambra in Granada, other wise we did not want to leave this amazing holiday home. We will be back. Alfonso was amazing with his links to where to shop on Sunday after a late arrival. We will be back. Thank you so much

What a STUNNING, BEAUTIFUL get away! The House and the grounds are breathtaking. So many beautiful nooks to sit and chill, absolutly quit, for those who seek privacy, here you have found it! Carmen&Alfonso have been fantastic hosts. We could have easily stayed for weeks. The drive is an easy one, approx 5 minutes from the gorgeous pueblo Frigiliana. The house is equiped with everything one can need, plus the outdoorkitchen by the stunning pool with amazing views got used a lot. A little piece of heaven. Highly recommended. Everything is made with so much love to detail. We will definately be back

A hidden gem

A beautiful cortijo/Villa just above the village of Frigiliana. Views of the sea and coast from the well maintained and landscaped gardens with numerous places to sit and relax and take in the views and the smell of the surrounding pine trees. We have stayed in numerous villas over the past twenty years in the Frigiliana area and this is one of the best.

Amazing Stay

We had such a lovely stay at this property - when we arrived we were stunned at how beautiful the home and location are. Communication for check-in was seamless and flexible, we communicated with Alejandro via Whatsapp and this made things nice and easy. The property itself was so beautiful, nice and clean and well equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Both bedrooms and living room had a/c which was a real luxury. The pool area was incredible and a real peaceful haven nestled into the amazing landscape. Really would recommend a stay here!

Lovely cottage just above Frigiliana

We very much enjoyed our stay in Carmen’s beautiful cottage. It is very well-equipped and hence extensive outdoors. It is a bit of a walk to the village - certainly on the way back (up) but the views are gorgeous. Carmen and Alfonso are wonderful hosts and easy to communicate with. Muchas gracias!

Fantastic place!

Charming and very clean house surrounded by a large property with great sea view and so many outdoor seating places that we couldn't use them all within our one week's stay... :-) Also the outdoor kitchen (grill) by the pool was very welcomed by us. Everything (inside and outside) is arranged/decorated so tastefully that it's a pleasure to be there. Also the contact with Carmen and Alfonso was very nice. Highly recommendable!

What an amazing place!

Carmen and Alfonso are really nice people (thank you both!) and the villa is without a doubt, the best holiday home my wife and I have stayed in. Spotlessly clean and really well equipped. A great location only a stones throw from Frigiliana. Close enough to the coast for easy access but far enough away from the hustle and bustle to be really peaceful. We thought we would use the house as a base to explore Andalusia from but it’s such a great place that we spent most of our time there. We will be back!

A little piece of paradise

As soon as we arrived we knew it was going to be special. The view is stunning and the surrounding land/garden is kept beautifully. The house is perfect for a couple or a family of 4. Everything was clean and the beds were super comfortable which is rare! The kitchen is well equipped as is the laundry. The pool and outdoor kitchen are fantastic. All done so well.

Lovely secluded property, not overlooked and very peaceful. We enjoyed our stay here and very much liked the various outdoor areas which provided shade if needed. Beautiful well kept gardens with various fruit trees, cactus and pines. The cottage itself had a lovely homely feel, very clean and comfortable and well situated near the village of Frigiliana.

What a wonderful stay. Even better than the pictures. Carmen has made a wonderful oasis , perfect in every way. There are so many places to sit and take in the breath taking scenery. The villa itself just feels so relaxed and very tastefully decorated. It's was hard to drag ourselves away and found ourselves eating on one the many terraces for dinner or lunch most days !!! The swimming pool area was beautifully surrounded by plants and vines and pine trees and lovely a secluded. Great sundowner spot!. Can't say enough thanks to Carmen for creating such a wonderful place. I feel truly rested and refreshed after such a wonderful stay

Perfect premise in perfect condition

This house was perfect for relaxing and as a base for visiting Andalusia. The house and its facilities were super clean. The garden and pool invited us to spend a lot of time outside, even in the second week of November swimming is a challenge in terms of temperature. There was space for our car and only 10 minutes by car to the very picturesque town of Friguliana. It wasn't too far to walk to the old town either. Overall we loved spending two weeks there. Many thanks to Carmen and Alfonso who were always available and very accommodating to us.

Simply Stunning

The property far exceeded our wildest dreams. There was constant communication with Carmen and Alfonso regards arrival times. Alfonso was very helpful and provided GPS locations for supermarkets nearby so we could stop my on our way to the property for supplies. We spent pretty much the whole holiday in either the outside areas taking in the stunning views or in the swimming pool. As another guest put it, “ a little bit of paradise on earth”. I would highly recommend.

This stay marked a long awaited return to this amazing property and we cannot wait to go back! It is so beautifully appointed, equipped and maintained both inside and out, with great attention to detail. The flowers in the bedroom including fragrant jasmine were a lovely touch. Both Carmen and Alfonso were extremely considerate and welcoming. The village of Frigiliana is walkable and since our first visit, a footpath has been constructed along the main road making it safer to wander down to the pretty village to its many bars, restaurants and shops. I have to be honest, having visited the area before, we didn’t spend too much time away from the villa as we wanted to make the most of our stunning surroundings! Thank you again Carmen and Alfonso.

A wonderfull stay

North of Frigiliana runs the MA5105. Along it are several houses with a view of the Mediterranean Sea. One of these houses is Fuente Santa. A lovely house, fully equipped, with a fantastic view, a covered terrace and below that a terrace by the pool where you can sit in the sun until after 5 pm in December/January. The house has wifi, a television (which we did not use), a wood stove and every room has air conditioning, which both heats and cools.The house is beautifully sheltered, in an area where there is a lot to do. Walking in the mountains to El Fuerte is recommended, for example; the village of Frigiliana is beautiful (touristy, that is). From Frigiliana you can do various walks: to Nerja, through the riverbed, to El Acebuchal and further to Cómpeta. The landlords are extremely hospitable and approachable. In short, a fantastic place and worth it.

Lovely villa, convenient location, amazing views

The villa was easy to find, with communication via WhatsApp before we set off and on the day we arrived. The villa is in a quiet valley, not remote or isolated, very near Frigiliana and a short drive to Nerja and the most fabulous beaches. The villa itself was perfect. Very clean, well equipped, comfortable beds and lots of fluffy towels. There were even fresh flowers in the bedroom. The kitchen is well equipped with plates, glasses and cooking utensils etc and the outdoor kitchen and bbq were great, there is a fridge which made days by the pool wonderful as we had cold drinks at our fingertips! We made good use of the pool as it was very hot when we were there. The air con in the bedrooms was very very welcome. It made the nights cool and easy to sleep. We spent many evenings on the terrace listening to the cicadas, gazing down the valley to the Med. You can even see the cruise ships away on the horizon. The villa is so pretty, the trees give great shade and a lovely tropical feel to the setting. It was a perfect holiday and we would love to return.

Great secluded Villa, convenient location, with peaceful views

Villa Fuenta Santa was easy to find as you pass through the town of Frigiliana, just a further 5 minutes drive as we made our way up the bends of the hillside. Great communication via WhatsApp with Alfonso before we set off and throughout our stay. Facilities are perfect for two or a small family. Beautifully appointed throughout, equipped and maintained both inside and out. Very clean, comfortable beds. Fragrant jasmine flowers were a lovely touch in the bedroom left by Carmen, also some fresh grapes from the vines by the pool left in the fridge as a nice welcome. The outdoor kitchen and bbq was also good, with a handy fridge for cold drinks and snacks ready instead of walking back up to the Villa. We spent many evenings on the main terrace with a view looking down the valley to the Med. Beautiful and well kept gardens with various fruit (fig) trees, cactus and pines giving great shade and a lovely tropical feel to the setting. The Villa is very secluded up on the hill in a quiet valley, you can take a 5 minute drive back down into the town or walk down, however its a good 25 minute walk to the edge of town or 35/40 minutes to the ‘Plaza de las Tres Culturas’ and then you have a nice selection of bars/restaurants. A footpath has been constructed along the main road near the Villa making it safer to wander down. However the walk back up the hill is a little tasking, douable, but in the day/heat I’d avoid. We managed to walk down on a few evenings, there are local taxis but
