Malaga is our closest city , and the Picasso museum as just one of the highlights. A million restaurants of every genre for you to try.
Puerto Banus is a favourite with visitors to view the glitterati or do some designer shopping. Lie by your own pool or visit Nikki Beach ( 10 minutes away )or any of the beach clubs along the Costa Del Sol. Unico is our favourite!
We advise a car, but taxis and Uber are available should you not wish to drive. Depending on when you visit , there are different things going on. Ferias, Mountain biking competitions, Jazz festivals, Diving trips, wine tastings.... lots to do.

We have a small dog, Lola (12 yrs) who sleeps most of the time, but does love to lie in the sun around the pool. We also have 2 kittens...Trevor and Sheila! They are very playful and friendly.

Top class Hosts and superb accommodation

We all enjoyed our 2 week stay in this fabulous Villa. John and Brian were first class hosts, the communication was excellent from the time of booking and throughout our stay were always available if required. The villa was amazing and was spotlessly clean and very well furnished and equipped for everything we needed for a great holiday. We will certainly look to be booking with John and Brian again in the future.

Fabulous apartment and a wonderful stay

We had a brilliant holiday here! John and Brian were amazing hosts, always making themselves available whenever we needed them. Also accommodating our early arrival. The apartment was very clean, and spacious with all the amenities and appliances you could need and more. The outdoor area is so lovely and the pool was very much enjoyed by all! The location was great, very serene and not too far from the airport. A very short drive to the beach. We really had a fantastic holiday, thank you so much!

Excellent vacation rental !

We had a great stay at John and Brian's place for part of our annual escape from the Madrid heat. Their rented apartment is lovely, and as hosts they go out of their way to ensure you have everything you need for an enjoyable and comfortable stay. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need, including cooking staples and had a lovely welcome gift in the fridge. I would definitely recommend their place and hospitality.

Relaxing week in July

We had a really relaxing holiday with everything you would ever need. To have a pool area all to our selves was a bonus. The apartment itself was tastefully furnished complete with very high specification appliances. Our host Brian and John went above and beyond to make sure we were totally comfortable. The only reason full marks were not given was the location. The location was lovely and peaceful but you did need a car or taxi whenever you wanted to go out. This was not a problem has taxis,s were always under 10 euros. Thanks for a great holiday.

We stayed in the appartment for 6 weeks with John and Brian as our hosts. Both the appartment as our hosts were fantastic! The two bedroom appartment is beautiful, very roomy and very well equipped. And the pool is very nice, especially in the warmer summer months. Location is super with golfcourses beach and city all nearby. And both John and Brian went out of their way to make us feel at home. Very good value for money!

Brian met us on arrival - showed us around the apartment - explained everything and said he was only a phone call away. What stood out to us was 1.

Great Holiday

We arrived early, and John could accommodate us a little earlier than our check-in time as our flights were quite early. The property is an exceptional standard. And comes with the bonus of Trevor and Sheila, the kittens who would pop in to see us on a daily basis and Lola, a very friendly dog who seems to want tummy rubs all the time. The location is great and only a 5-minute drive to the beach and the restaurants. The property is in quiet urbanisation, so there is no noise from a beachfront location. The owner's Brian and John were very friendly and keen to make sure we had a good stay

Great week at with John & Brian

We had a week visit at the apartment. Soon as we arrived we were greeted by John one of the hosts who helped us with our luggage. When we got in to the property it was even better than the pictures, and had everything we needed and more. The property was very clean and well maintained and the garden and pool area was private and relaxing. We travelled with our 1 year old, and the apartment was set out and equipped with everything ready to go to make life easy for us. John and Brian were so friendly, accommodating and couldn't do enough for us, and always on hand if needed. We would definitely recommend a visit to this property and will definitely return again.

Fantastic gem in the Costa del Sol!!

We came as a family with two children aged 10 and 7 and two adults, and had an absolutely wonderful holiday! John and Brian were brilliant hosts, achieving the perfect balance between being available when we needed them but in no way being intrusive. The apartment is beautifully furnished with everything you could possibly need, including top of the range appliances and kitchen equipment, even down to a cool box and umbrellas to take for your own beach picnic. The pool is a wonderful asset, and our children loved being in it every day. The two gorgeous kittens and sweet dog Lola visiting us from time to time were also a welcome addition to our holiday! All in all a brilliant stay and I have no doubt that we will be back!! Thank you John and Brian!!

Quality accommodation

John and Brian’s apartment is an absolute gem. Quality accommodation with no expense spared in fitting it out and plenty of space - it is even better than the pictures. The kitchen and lounge area is huge and opens up on to the terrace with the pool which is perfect for cooling off. At the end of May/beginning of June the sun is on the terrace from about noon until after 6pm. The bedrooms were perfect with large beds and lots of little extra touches - I particularly liked the bedside lamps. Showers were absolutely fine with hot water soon available. The apartment is underneath John and Brian’s villa with its own access and the owners were never intrusive but always available if we had a question to ask. Lola and Gucci, their two dogs, became firm friends during our stay but were never a nuisance. You will need a car to get around as it is not really walkable to shops or restaurants as it is a residential area , which makes for it being quiet and relaxing. But for us it was not an issue and it is a little over a five minute drive down to the supermarket and the restaurants of Calahonda. Taxi fare was around 8 euros. Overall a lovely week - just what we needed and wished we had booked for longer.

Très bien

Un endroit très propre, piscine incluse. Beaucoup d'espace également à l'intérieur. Une excellente literie. De l'équipement en abondance (vaisselle, électroménager,...), d'ailleurs plutôt haut de gamme concernant l'électroménager, c'est rare. Les propriétaires se sont rendus disponibles et nous ont accueillis presque au milieu de la nuit (retard d'avion). Attention, c'est la Costa del Sol en été (nous concernant), donc il peut arriver d'avoir la visite de quelques bestioles ponctuellement (cafards), mais il ne s'agit pas d'un problème de salubrité, ils sont dans l'environnement. Attention également aux fourmis : la moindre miette déclenche l'arrivée d'un convoi. Il faut bien emballer la nourriture. Pour l'environnement, il n'y a aucun commerce à moins de 5-10 minutes, il faut une voiture.

Fantastic home away from home

We spent almost 2 months in our 'winter home' whilst visiting Costa Del Sol and beyond. John & Brian(as well as Lola) are truly OUTSTANDING hosts. The property comes exactly as advertised. The apartment is outfitted to the highest quality and has everything you will possibly require. Riviera de Sol is a central location. We had our own privacy, yet we were still close enough to La Cala, Fuengirola, Marbella & Malaga. We even took day trips to Sevilla, Granada & Gibraltar. We loved our morning walks through the various beach communities that are all inter-connected by boardwalks. We also had terrific hikes in the hills right above our place. We played 7 different golf courses that were all within 8 km or less of our place. 6 of the 7 were excellent. The 7th one was merely good. It was always terrific to spend sunny afternoons lounging by our own private pool. Don't Miss... 1- La Cala de Mijas is a beautiful little beach town with excellent spots for lunch or a drink. 2-Mijas Pueblo. The town and the hiking if you can manage it. 3- The restaurant at La Cala Nova golf course. 4- Miraflores Golf Course 5- The Alhambra in Granada. 3 hour drive. 6- Sevilla Brian & John, Thanks so much and we'll see you again the next time we visit Spain.
