prima!

Een prachtige woning op een schitterende plek. Het huis heeft veel pluspunten. Naast de genoemde plek is het huis schoon en ruim opgezet, met vier tweepersoonsslaapkamers met eigen badkamer, een ruime living en natuurlijk een uitstekend zwembad. De hosts Isabel en Juan zijn zeer behulpzaam en communiceren prima. Montejaque en omgeving zijn zeer de moeite waard, een verblijf hier is dus zeker aan te raden. Een paar puntjes waar je rekening mee moet houden; het huis is slecht bereikbaar voor mensen die slecht ter been zijn; ook voor echt kleine kinderen lijkt het ons een uitdaging (trappen/zwembad). Een magnetron en gastentoilet ontbreken; voor ons geen probleem, maar goed om te weten. Uiteindelijk dus zeker de moeite waard!

Huset ligger med den flotteste udsigt til de omkringliggende bjerge. Juan og Isabel hjælp med alt man kunne tænke sig. Alle fornødenheder kan erhverves i landsbyen og der er tilpas mange forskellige spisemuligheder. Det har været fantastiske 13 dage for os (familie på 7)

A wonderful cozy house with lots of room - both inside and outside and a beautiful view. Fully equipped and a very good grill so easy to prepare dinner. Had to walk through the town to get there. A bit challenging especially if you are not fit. We had a lot of fun with it though. Huge thank to the agency for the help carrying our luggage/grocery from the parking lot to the house. Nice and cozy little town with only a few restaurants and shopping opportunities, but extremely nice people. Enjoyed the festival doing the weekend. Can only recommend this fantastic place.

Eight close friends. Los Arcos is a beautiful house, well equipped , nice pool and gorgeus view of the mountains. The village is very friendly. Very steep hill to and from the villa but Isabel or Juan are very helpfull in case one needs transport.

Alles erop en eraan in een mooi huis, in een mooi dorp in een geweldige omgeving. Horren voor de ramen was wel fijn geweest. Voor de rest top!

Montejaque er en meget hyggelig lille by, som ikke er overrendt af turister. Flere små lokale butikker og restauranter dækkede fint vore behov den uge vi boede i byen. Adgang til/fra huset er MEGET stejl, og ikke for gangbesværede. Huset er dejligt stort med stort køkken/alrum med udgang til dejlig terrasse og pool. Minus at aircondition ikke fungerede:-( Vi fik løbende besøg af en lokal ung mand med sin søster, som gjorde pool'en ren og vende blomsterne, og de var super flinke til at svare på spørgsmål og tage affald med.

What a wonderful week. We loved the house, the pool, the views. This was the perfect rental. Any cricticism that has come before means that a few of its visitors have had unrealistic expectations of living in rural Spain. Yes, there were a few ants (don't leave food out!) , in our case there was even some unexpected roadworks outside our door for most of the week and no water one day, but you take it in stride. Our hosts were very caring of our comfort and even went as far to treat us to a lovely meal at The Casita restaurant to compensate for the roadworks. All in all, a perfect place to relax for a week. Thank you to a very generous owner for sharing your beautiful home with strangers, and a big thank you to Carolyn for giving us great ideas for day trips. It was great to meet you and yes, it is indeed a small world!

Zeer ruim huis waar alles voor handen is. Keuken goed uitgerust, het huis is schoon. Montejaque is klein, maar leuk met op pleintje paar terrassen. Prachtige omgeving. Het was erg heet toen wij er waren. Zwembad bracht verkoeling. Jammer dat er geen goed werkende parasol bij de buiten eettafel was. Minpuntje is het ontbreken van airco. In de woonkamer werd het heel heet. Ventilatoren werkten niet zodanig dat slaapkamers koel waren. Open raam bracht enige verkoeling. Parkeren kan niet bij het huis. Soms moeilijk om parkeerplek in de hoofdstraat te vinden

Family group of seven. Villa spacious light and airy. Loved the pool being same depth throughout. Any issues we had were quickly resolved. Beautiful village. Climb to the top of the hill through winding lanes behind the Main Square to get an amazing view of the area. Had great Tapas in the bars in the Main Square. Friendliest village Ive ever been to. Shops in the village are a bit limited but good enough for topping up supplies. Good meal to be had at the Italian restaurant near to the Villa. Excellent pizzas. Highly recommend the hotel Molino del santo in the next village for a special treat. A little expensive but well worth it. Carolyn and Kevin in the house across the road are very helpful. Only a few minor points. No storage in the upstairs bedrooms and very little in the kitchen area. OccUpants should probably be made aware of the steep Hill to and from the villa. Could be problematic for elderly or less able. Overall an excellent holiday venue.

We are a group of 8 people (family and friends), who just stayed a week in Los Arcos. We chose the place because of the many positive reviews, but kind of agreed that calling it a luxury house is a bit exaggerated. When we arrived the house smelled a little moldy, and there were dust lying in the corners and cobwebs under the bed (and a spider IN the bed :-)) The smell disappeared after a day, so no big deal. Still not something you expect from a luxury house. The dishwasher didn't work properly, so you had to wash the plates and glasses by hand afterwards. Also, the internet is really slow. Some of us had to do some work while we were there, which was almost impossible, at least if more than one person was online at the same time. Another thing that was a bit inconvenient are the toilets in the rooms. They have no doors. Only a little curtain. Using the toilet by night when your friend is lying just beside felt weird and we usually waited till the next morning. Doors would be nice :-) Also, the kitchen was filled with ants and even though we put our bread in plastic bags the ants usually found a way in. All of us also agreed that the fountain in the pool was annoying. It's very zen and cosy the first five minutes when you arrive, but after a while when you sit by the pool and almost can't hear what each other are saying, it gets really irritating. We asked if they could turn it off, but that wasn't possible. It turns on and off at different times of the day. We made our own homemade solution with some plastic underneath etc in the pool to quiet it a bit. That helped. It may sound like we're nitpicking, but from all the positive reviews we had expected a different standard. Also, many of the things could be easily improved. And now to the good stuff :-) The house is quite big, the rooms are okay and the showers are great. The village is a cosy, little and charming village even though not much is happening. It's a great place if you want to hike in the mountains or visit the caves nearby which several of us loved. If you want to have a really nice dinner, head for Molino del Santo in the next village. The food and the service there is great! Also, the communication with the agent before and after arriving was fine. And when the fountain was off, we very much enjoyed the outdoor area and the pool and had a couple of cosy nights barbecuing.

Super huis op schitterende locatie!

Mooie ruime vakantiewoning, van alle gemakken voorzien. Het zwembad vonden we in april nog wat frisjes, de open haard kwam wel goed van pas. Het dorp is niet erg groot, maar heeft diverse gezellige supermarktjes, met alles wat je nodig hebt. Restaurants en barretjes op loopafstand, maar Ronda is ook niet ver. Wij gebruikten deze locatie als uitvalsbasis om tochten met de racefiets te maken, waar de omgeving zich bijzonder goed voor leent. En niet te vergeten de erg aardige en attente plaatselijke caretaker Isabel, die snel reageert op vragen via whatsapp of telefoon.

Having seen the photos of this property, our expectations were quite high, but the reality is even than the photos! Los Arcos is a fabulous house - beautifully designed, well-equipped and a pool with the most gorgeous view of the mountains behind. We spent 10 glorious days in Montejaque - a wonderful little village which certainly comes to life during the August Feira - there always seemed to be something going on in the square whenever we walked up the hill! We couldn't have asked more of our holiday - the village is perfectly situated in order to visit Ronda and many of the stunning surrounding Pueblas Blancas. Normally, even though we love a place, we wouldn't necessarily return as there are so many other places in the world to visit, but in Montejaque, and Los Arcos we really found a place that will stay in our hearts forever, and we can't wait to go back. Thank you to Carolyn and Kevin across the road for making us feel so welcome and answering any queries! We will enjoy cooking dishes from your cooking book!

This is a real luxury house with everything you need especially the pool. Everything was as described, it's big and comfortable for all, we are family of 5 and we had room to spare. Great wifi especially if you have teenagers. The village is small and interesting, nice square, with all you need in terms of shops, bars and restaurants in a village of this size. Lovely friendly restaurant almost next door! The location is great, close to Ronda, a longer drive to Seville (which is worth it) and surrounded by a really impressive landscape. Communication was great, Carolyn who is the contact replied immediately to any query and was extremely helpful. This is an excellent holiday house.

Nous avons passé une semaine géniale dans cette villa , elle est spacieuse pour 8 personnes et très propre , la décoration est sympa . La vue sur la montagne est magnifique. le village de Montejaque est reposant et les habitants sont très souriants et accueillants. Nous avons passé la semaine du 15 aout et les villageois faisaient la fête chaque soir , ce fut un vrai moment de convivialité. John

Hééél gezellig huis, alles erop en eraan! Mooi ingerichte woning met een mooie badkamer aan elke kamer. Heel smaakvol en met liefde ingericht. We hebben ons hier heel goed thuisgevoeld. Prachtige ligging, maar helaas daardoor ook enkel voor mensen zonder knie/rug problemen toegankelijk omdat het zo steil is. Map voorhanden met interessante en nuttige informatie bezoekers. Een pluim voor Isabel voor de hartelijke ontvangst om middernacht (!!), het vullen van de koelkast en en de megasnelle interventies bij éénder welke oproep (binnen het uur : wensen vervuld en problemen opgelost!) Kleine minpuntjes: - Niet genoeg kastruimte vr 5 personen - Zwembad niet verwarmd: kunnen we inkomen gezien het klimaat, maar mss simpele zonne-energie hulpstukken gebruiken om tussenseizoen te overbruggen? Dit huis is een echte aanrader. Wij komen alvast terug!

Wij kijken terug op een heerlijke ontspannen en met name zonovergoten week in deze prachtige villa. De woning is gezellig ingericht, ruim, koel en van alle gemakken voorzien. We hebben genoten van de rust, het prachtige uitzicht en van de gemoedelijke dorpssfeer. In de omgeving hebben we uitstapjes gemaakt naar de typische witte dorpjes maar ook de grotere steden als Sevilla en Ronda zijn echte aanraders om te bezoeken. We hebben zeker nog niet alles gezien en komen graag nog een keer terug om te genieten van de villa en de omgeving!

Na anderhalf uur rijden van de luchthaven van Malaga kom je via een prachtige rit door de bergen aan in het witte dorp Montejaque . De villa ademt een typische Spaanse sfeer uit en voelt direct aan als een thuis. Het huis is lekker ruim, heeft goede bedden en divers overig comfort. Er zijn meerdere terrassen waar je heerlijk kunt genieten van het mooie uitzicht. In de directe omgeving is een top restaurant waar we een aantal keren super lekker hebben gedineerd, daarnaast zijn er een aantal gezellige gelegenheden om tapas te eten. Boodschappen doe je bij de kleine locale supermarktjes wat een ervaring op zich is! Het dorpje ademt zoveel rust uit dat je niet anders kan dan hierin meegaan. We komen graag nog een keer terug om de omgeving verder te verkennen en om ook een wijnproeverij bezoeken welke ons werd aangeraden. Kortom een geweldige plek voor een vakantie waarin, rust, genieten en natuur centraal staan.

Nous avons loué cette maison 15 jours en Août 2014 avec notre petite famille (couple avec 4 enfants) et nous en sommes repartis avec beaucoup de regrets. Ce séjour a été un enchantement. Nous sommes tombés sous le charme de cette magnifique maison qui est conforme et même mieux que sur les photos. A notre arrivée, Isabel nous attendait pour la remise des clés et nous aider à décharger notre voiture. Nous avions anticipé le fait que la maison ne possède pas de parking et de places de stationnement devant la maison, ce qui est le cas pour beaucoup de petits villages blancs d’andalousie. Mais pas de problème, Montejaque à beaucoup de places de stationnement qui sont gratuites. Dès le premier jour nous nous sommes sentis comme chez nous, une maison où il fait bon vivre et où on se sent très à l’aise. La maison est très fonctionnelle, décorée avec beaucoup de goût et très bien équipée. Propreté irréprochable, linges de maison, serviettes de piscine tout était parfait. Ménage et entretien de la piscine très bien. Montejaque est magnifique, tous les commerces sont présents pour permettre de passer un excellent séjour sans parcourir des kilomètres pour faire les courses où déjeuner au restaurant. Nous recommandons la petite épicerie en haut de la rue en sortant de la maison qui possède tout ce qui vous pouvez avoir besoin, pain, viandes, fruits, fromage et l’huile d’olive de Montejaque, bref que des produits de qualité et à des prix défiants toutes concurrences et un service exemplaire. Nous avons découvert l’Andalousie très facilement et visiter RONDA dont nous vous recommandons les patisseries exceptionnelles, Séville, Cordoue, Grenade …. Nous remercions très chaleureusement, Isabel et son frère pour leur très grande disponibilité et la qualité de leur accueil et vous Philip ZWART car vous avons ressenti dans votre maison tout l’attachement que vous avez pour votre maison et le souci de bien accueillir vos hôtes. Un immense merci de la part de toute notre famille et nous espérons revenir bientôt à Montejaque. (Pour répondre aux différents avis déposés sur le site d’Abritel pour les futurs locataires, il serait bon de préciser que cette maison est difficile d’accès pour des personnes à mobilité réduite et par contre pour la connexion internet aucun problème).

We rented this house 15 days in august, 2014 with our small family (couple with 4 children) and we left it with many regrets. This stay was a delight. We fell under the spell of this magnificent house which is in accordance and even better than on photos. Upon our arrival, Isabel waited for us for the delivery of keys and to help us to unload our car. We had anticipated the fact that the house doesn't possess a Car park and parking space in front of the house, what is the case for many of the small villages white with Andalusia. But no problem, Montejaque in many parking places which are free. From the first day we felt at home, a house where life is enjoyable and where we feel very comfortable. The house is very functional, decorated tastefully and very well equips. Irreproachable cleanliness, linen, briefcases of swimming pool everything was completed. Cleaning and maintenance of the swimming pool are very well. Montejaque is magnificent, all the shops are present to allow to have an excellent stay without traveling for kilometers to go shopping where to have lunch to the restaurant. We recommend the small grocer's shop at the top of the street by going out of the house which possesses all which you can need, bread, meats, fruits, cheese and the olive oil of Montejaque, in brief that quality products and at distrustful prices any competitions and an exemplary service. We discovered Andalusia very easily and to visit RONDA whose exceptional cake shops we recommend you, Seville, Córdoba, Grenada. We thank very warmly, Isabel and his brother for their very big availability and the quality of their welcome and you Philip ZWART because felt you in your house all the attachment which you have for your house and the concern to welcome well your hosts. An immense thank you for the part of all our family and we hope to return soon to Montejaque. (To answer to the various notices deposited on the site of Abritel for the future tenants, it would be good to specify that this house is difficult to access for people with reduced mobility and on the other hand for internet connection no problem).

Als ouder echtpaar(70+) hebben we wederom genoten van dit prachtige huis met zwembad. De rust, de natuur, de landelijke omgeving en de viendelijke bevolking doen je goed. Graag tot volgend jaar.

We have had a lovely time here with our kids. The swimming pool was great and the house is very clean, spacious and fully equipped. The house is close to the shops and you can park your car easily on the main road in Montejaque. Within 50 meters there is a very nice restaurant (La Casita) with a one star cook. His name is Max and he is makes the finest international food and pizzas. If you love the mountains and the Spanish food we would recommend this house to you. And we are 100% sure that we will visit Montejaque again next year!

Het huis is zoals op de foto's, wat een plaatje en alles is aanwezig. Iedere kamer eigen badkamer & toilet, erg prettig met een grote groep mensen. Het huis is gelegen onderaan de heuvel, waar een auto niet kan komen, voor mensen die slecht ter been zijn is het niet goed te doen (Heuvel op en af) De omgeving is werkelijk waar prachtig, enorm groen. Om naar Montejaque te komen ga je door prachtig berglandschap en schattige dorpjes. Sevilla ligt op 2 uur rijden afstand, Ronda is zeer zeker de moeite waard om te bezoeken met zijn historie en de markt op zondag. Arcos de La Fronteren is een prachtig dorpje, gelegen op een heuvel met uniek uitzicht. Al met al hebben wij ons, ondanks het tegenvallende weer, prima vermaakt.
