Nerja and Frigiliana really do offer something for everyone – whether wandering around the typically Spanish streets of whitewashed houses and the famous Balcón de Europa in Nerja, shopping in the lively commercial area, enjoying the many water sports available at one of our amazing beaches, hiking in the incredible Sierra Almijara or making the most of free tapas still served with drinks in most bars – you’ll never be bored!
The local caves – Cueva de Nerja – and the neighbouring hillside “Pueblo Blanco”, Frigiliana, are incredible must-sees during your stay. Further afield but within easy reach there are waterparks, aquariums, zoos, golf courses, the beautiful Sierra Nevada Mountain range with fabulous skiing over the winter months and the beautiful Andalusian cities of Málaga, Seville, Cordoba and Granada.

The property is fantastic, spacious, clean, great location, fabulous pool and great amenities. Great air con and good sized garden with the pool. 5 minute walk into town and far away enough to be quite.

Perfect Getaway
The villa was perfect for our annual getaway of 6 women friends. The villa was beautiful, the photographs didn’t do it justice. It was spacious, comfortable and everything was sparkling clean. We Particularly enjoyed the outside area with the lovely pool.
We had great communication with the company and they organised our transfers to and from the airport and they allowed a slightly later checkout which was appreciated.
Picky things only - some dish towels would have been useful as well as more dishwasher tablets . This certainly did not detract from our enjoyment.

A fabulous villa
We are an extended family of 11 and the villa was perfect. The views of the sea and mountains was breathtaking and the villa itself very spacious.
The pool was larger than expected and we spent much of our time swimming, playing games-there are some inflatables- and relaxing.
The gate from the veranda was welcome with a 3 and 4 year old in our group.
We loved the restaurant Pura Cepa in Frigiliana.
We had read in a previous review no table tennis equipment so we took our own but there still is none provided.
Worth being aware that the taxi situation in the daytime is pretty dire. And the bus to Nerja approximately every 2 hours. We wish we’d hired a small car for supermarket shopping etc.
There are small supermarkets in Frigiliana which are walkable.

Stunning villa in a great location
The villa is much more spacious than expected and has the most beautiful views. A 10 min walk into the centre of Frigiliana and Nerja is only a 10 min car/bus journey away.
There was quite an unpleasant drain smell in all of the bathrooms. We reported it and it was slightly better after someone came to look but it was still there.
It would be good to have some washing machine powder provided to allow us to wash tea towels.
Mooie en ruime villa gelegen in het prachtige Frigiliana. Op loopafstand van het centrum van Frigiliana met een aantal leuke restaurantjes en winkeltjes. Wel erg heuvelachtig, dus met het warme weer wel een pittige wandeling.Vlakbij het huis stopt de bus naar Nerja, ideaal. Wij hadden wel een huurauto maar alleen voor de boodschappen. Enorm genoten van de omgeving, het huis en zwembad. Alles ook uitstekend geregeld!
