Great villa in a quiet location. Very private with all mod cons. Lovely pool with great views from both terraces. Modern and tastefully decorated the photographs really don’t do it justice. Comfortable, clean and secure with plenty of space to relax and unwind. It’s a bit hard to find, but once you’re there you appreciate the quietness. It’s on a one way side rd and there is no through traffic. The station is an easy 4 minute walk and we used it a couple of times for shopping trips to Malaga and Benalmadena. The close proximity of the station does mean you hear a faint rumbling of the trains, which we used as a signal to turn over while sunbathing. We hired a car and we’re glad we did, although there is a small shop at the bottom of the hill, I wouldn’t fancy getting our weeks food and booze supplies back up the hill. I suppose you could get a taxi. We got Ubers when going out for dinner, they had no problem finding us once I used the pin drop to show our location. As mentioned by the host Google maps likes to send you down the wrong Rd. The hosts communication was excellent and entertaining with great attention to detail. We had a great week late in May and even on the couple of rainy days we loved being in the Villa. If you have mobility issues I could see it being a problem, as there are stairs that lead from the main Rd to the Villa and the Villa is on two levels. We would definitely stay again.

We had a lovely relaxing four days here. The house is in a beautiful location and has lovely views from both terraces, and the house itself is very comfortable. It's away from the touristy parts, but there are enough places to eat within walking distance, as well as a Mercadona. A big plus is the proximity to the train station - we usually rent a car but traveled light this time and were at the house within 30 minutes of getting through passport control. Clive is a great host and the welcome pack was much appreciated. Would thoroughly recommend and we're planning to return.

The train being so near made us travel up and down the coast it was so easy

My family of four including two children rented this villa for one week during half term. Can I firstly say how effective the communication was with Clive the owner from start to finish, it was amazing. We had no difficulty finding it and the instructions to gain access were clear, meaning we were able to enjoy the villa right away. We were so delighted with the welcome pack Clive had left us including cava, beers, milk, bread and butter, ham and cheese, I have rented many places but haven’t received so much. Thank you Clive. The villa is very clean and tidy, it is fully equipped for a self catering holiday. Wi-Fi is super fast and we got 5G on our phones. There is a large balcony on one side with stunning views to the mountains and the sea. On the other side is a nice pool, no doubt it would be very welcome in the summer, children enjoyed it, I’m not so brave alough the weather was lovely. The location is around five minutes walk to the train stop, the train runs from Malaga to Fuengirola so lots of places are accessible this way. There are a few restaurants nearby, around a five minute walk and the same distance to the beach. We used Bolt taxis to get around in the evening. This villa is in a quiet area, there seems to be a lot of holiday homes, quite up market and we did feel safe. To sum up, good clean accommodation, fully equipped kitchen, excellent views, quiet area but close to the beach and restaurants, close to the train and we would definitely use it again.

Just back from an amazing stay in this beautiful villa. Spotless clean a great welcome pack with wine to help start us off. Every little thing that you might need was in the villa . Clive is an excellent host. Fabulous pool. 10 mins walk to beach and restaurants. Beds comfy and such a chilled and quiet atmosphere. Can't wait to come back.

This is the second time we've stayed in the villa and we love it so much. It is spacious yet cosy, and has everything you could possibly need. It is very close to the train station which is remarkably good for getting around! The cleanliness of the property is second to none and very well presented. The property management are fantastic and very easy to communicate with. The pool is such a great bonus, very clean, and great fun for the whole family. We love this villa so much, I would highly recommend and I'm sure we'll be back.

This is a lovely property perfectly laid out to take advantage of sea and mountain views from a large balcony and outdoor eating area. There is also a very private pool area as well as a garden. The area was very peaceful during our stay (late September to early October). A particularly nice touch was finding food (ham, cheese, bread and butter) as well as drinks (cava, beer and water) in the fridge on our arrival. The train service along the coast is a few minutes walk away and very cheap. The Mercadonna supermarket is only a few minutes drive away.

Property was as described. Lovely and peaceful with a small pool. Great transport links within walking distance. Short distance from shops,bars and beaches..Lovely views from the terraces.

This villa has stunning views and is well designed and furnished feeling like a home from home. You're never short of something to watch on the Tv with all sport ,movies etc Very convenient for the train too. If you don't have a car it's a steep walk to shops and bars but we managed with the provided shopping trolley and we're both fat and fifty something..... Clive is a very amenable host as evidenced by his communications and help due to mistakes made on our part Overall we had a great holiday here and would return

All fine

We absolutely loved our time at the villa! The advert photos don’t do it justice, really wonderful property with everything you could need. Clive was a fantastic host, went out of his way to make us feel welcome. Can’t wait to return for our next wonderful break here.

We loved staying in this villa, it had everything that we needed and made for a wonderful, relaxing holiday. Communication in advance was fantastic and the check-in details were really clear and simple. The villa itself was excellent and little touches like providing milk, tea, etc. upon arriving make a big difference. We requested a travel cot and high chair and they were there waiting for us when we arrived. The location was great, a short walk to the beach and some nice casual restaurants nearby. It was really quiet throughout the day and night. I would highly recommend this place for a small family or couple looking for a quiet, relaxing break.

Just back from a great week at this lovely villa, everything you need is there for you. A proper home from home! Great location. Will return!

Marvelous and quiet villa, fantastic place to relax. The terrace with private pool It's amazing. The villa It's in an excelent condition, we'll repeat !! Thank you Clive for everything !!

I do recommend Clive's village for the cleanliness, good communication with the host, nice pool (despite a bit smaller, that it looks on the pictures like), BBQ and wonderfull views on the see and mountains. The old vilage of Benalmadena is 2.5km upwards away, which maybe hard in the sunny days. On the other hand - local train stop is just 5 walking minutes away and its frequency to Malaga is every 20 minutes, so nice trip can be arranged.

What a great holiday, we enjoyed every second of it. The villa was fantastic, the area is posh, the view is magnificent, the pool is beautiful. The host Mr Clive Strawford explained by email every thing in details, the property was fully equipped with everything we need and beyond. We really felt at home. Will definitely recommend.

Well equipped was able to park the car each day outside the house. Didn’t use the pool as the weather was not warm enough but it looked clean and inviting. This property has an oven which many properties do not - bonus

Beautiful villa with everything you would want. Lovely pool area, patio and balcony. There was so much choice as to where you wanted to eat with the balcony area indoor table and outdoor patio area. We just loved our stay.

We travelled with our two boys aged 7-10 as our first Villa holiday all together and it more than lived up to our expectations. The villa was lovely (the photos do not do it justice and could do with an update) really well appointed, super clean and made for a real home from home experience. When we arrived there was some basic food and drink supplies which was really appreciated, the villa was spotless and it made us feel completely ready to just relax. The train is so close it would be possible to holiday with out a car although we are really glad we did. There were no real negatives we can give overall, even the communication with Clive and Debbie was great. My only suggestions/feeback/advice would be :- The most direct walk to the sea front required a walk up or down a mega steep hill which will certainly test your fitness although there are alternative routes. We only walked up it once which says more about our fitness lol The master bed we found could do with an update both mattress and base. Nothing is like your own bed though so maybe it was more that. Pillows were great though. I'd really like there to have been a brick BBQ to cook on (there was a portable one it the pool storage cupboard but we found it too late) as there's certainly plenty of room. The garden area seemed wasted perhaps more of a feature could be made of it. Put it this way as soon as we can we will re-book :D Can't give a bigger endorsement than that.

Exceptional stay. The villa was great along with the location. The train station was around a 7 minute walk serving a a lot of the coastal towns stretching from Fuengirola to the city of Malaga. Clive certainly went out of his way to help on a few matters we had . A mention to Debbie the cleaner ( well done).

Lovely house with everything you need to make a home from home, but with much better weather! My only suggestion for improvement would be the provision of a folder with local information (train/bus timetables, information on supermarkets/restaurants etc,). People new to the area could feel a bit lost, especially if they don't have a car. Other than that, 5 stars all round.

Very well maintained and looked after in a lovely quiet area but close to bars, supermarkets, bus routes and train. Great communication with owner and property manager who make everything so easy. An absolute delight.

We have had many holidays on the Costa del Sol and this is certainly one of the best. The Villa is perfectly situated with sunshine on the balcony from 0700hrs and then sunshine on the pool area until 1900hrs. The views of the sea and the mountains are stunning. The Villa was very clean and tidy and had everything that we needed. We ate in for four nights and the kitchen/ oven facilities were excellent. We tried a couple of the local restaurants in Torremuelle which were really good, with a good choice of food and reasonably priced. We utilised the nearby train station and visited Torromolinos, Fuengerola(which has a very good and large market on Tuesdays), Los Boliches and indeed the Airport, all for around 2 euros per journey. Overall, we had a fantastic stay at the Villa, and will definitely return.The information pack was very useful, and when we had to contact Clive over a minor issue, he was brilliant and came straight round and stayed with us until it was sorted.(and we had a great chat) Mick and Cheryl - 8th June 2019

Clive was great, replied really quickly to any questions we had. The location to the train station meant access to the whole coast was possible if we got tired of chilling!

Loved the position of this villa. Close to the train station so we could explore somewhere new everyday. The villa has everything you need and much more. We used the pool every day and will be definitely returning.

photos out of date however much improved since these were taken. fab views and tranquil surroundings but so near station easy access to wherever you want to visit

We stayed in this villa in May 2019. I'm very critical of the places that I stay in and I honestly could not find fault, the villa was immaculate throughout, it had everything that we needed for the week and the welcome pack in the fridge with beer and wine got the holiday off to a great start. If you are looking for a retreat away from the hustle and bustle of main Benalmadena but within a one stop 2€ (one way) train journey or a 1h15m minute walk then you don't need to look any further, be warned though the immediate surroundings are not flat. We used the villa and the train as hub to other areas like Malaga, Fuengirola and Torremolinos all within 20 minutes, we even managed a day trip to Gibraltar taking a coach from the taxi rank just outside "Benalmádena-Arroyo de la Miel" station with https://www.rubensexcursions.com/ for £30 each. We didn't use any of the few restaurants within walking distance because their curb appeal was lacking. When the large hotel on the sea front has completed its refurbishment I am sure that more bars and restaurants will spring up. The refurbishment was supposed to be completed in Jan/2019 but I'll be surprised if its finished before 2020.

This villa is perfection. So easy to get to from the train station, impecably clean and just stunning. It's like a home from home but set in the most stunning location. The pool was amazing, very clean and welcoming on hot days. You can travel from Malaga to Fuengirola on the train so easily from here, make the most of it! Overall could not have asked for a better location 💙 Really don't want to leave and will be back!

Had a lovely stay here in this charming villa. Had everything you could want. Beautiful views from the terrace, walking distance to train and shop, and lovely fish restaurant that I would highly recommend. Would definitely love to come back. Thankyou.
