About this property
Villa Los Tajos
The center of Frigiliana at 100 meters!
If you’re looking for a location where you have a wide array of tapas bars, restaurants and shops at hand reach from your villa, then this must be your choice. Yet, you will enjoy the quiet ambience of a countryside property and the wonderful views over the impressive gorge of the Higueron river. Inside the villa is spacious, simple and comfortable.

From the villa, you can also make lovely hikes through the riverbed of the nearby Rio Higueron or drop in to the countryside west of Frigiliana.

Lovely villa in a great location. Great communication from Ralph before our stay and the villa owner met us at the villa for an easy check in. The pool was fantastic and has amazing views. An easy walk into the old town with loads of places to eat and a kids play park close by as well. Great for families.
What a lovely villa - really clean and spacious and 5 mins walk from the centre of town. Views are fantastic and the pool is beautiful . Javier the owner was really friendly and Ralph at Casitas Select made the whole booking experience really easy. We will definitely return!
Great location. Near the middle of the village but very quiet. Villa was very clean but basic(rustic). Was not mentioned that you are meant to pay cash on arrival. Javier the owner was lovely. Would like to go back but the price for next year has gone up by a very large amount. Fabulous weather and fabulous holiday.

Thank you for your review. We're happy to hear that you've enjoyed your stay. The price you saw was a place holder price for next year so not correct. The 2026 prices have now been updated.
Beautiful property in a stunning location, pool was great and Frigiliana is stunning. Only issue we had was the lack of air con in the property (and we happened to be there during the heatwave) which made it difficult to sleep at night.
Wonderful views, well equipped and comfortable with great pool area and terrace with awning. Very friendly owner who made sure we were happy! Good parking but challenging with the slope, a car with plenty of power an advantage.
Brilliant villa location spot on just needs air con

Frigiliana 022 - great stay
Great communication and customer care from both Casitas and the owner. We had a brief issue where the electricity tripped and the owner came straight out and sorted (warning, don't run the dishwasher and oven at the same time -D ). Great location, nice pool with added benefit of having a shallow pool for the younger kids. Plenty of places to sit out. Everything you need is provided.
Could do with air conditioning. We had to leave the shutters open, so as in any built up area, there can be a fair bit of noise from time to time.
best location 1 minute walk into frigiliana. breath-taking views down into valley. Great having small pool for children separate from main pool. Peaceful and quiet. Slightly dated but made it feel more traditional. Had everything we needed for our 2 week family holiday

Perfect villa in a great location!
We loved the villa and had a wonderful stay. The pool and view are fantastic and the location could not be better. Excellent communication with both Ralph and Javier. Nothing was a trouble.
Only improvements are very small:
A note to explain how we dispose of our rubbish - we couldn't see any bins outside of the property and there were no instructions. More bin bags and toilet paper. A paper that has the wifi details as currently you have to have amazing eyesight to read the password on the back of the router. The banister going up to the two bedrooms is very, very wobbly and may actually be dangerous. The above are only tiny improvements (not complaints) and do not take away from a fantastic stay.

Thank you for giving our home the highest rating! We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay and will definitely take your suggestions into account for the future.
Mr Lopez (the owner) met us at the property which is surrounded by mountains yet only a minutes walk into Frigiliana. Most restaurants are a little cheaper than down on the coast in Nerja and the food is better.
The property is laid out over 3 floors. It is an old property in a prime position. It has a fabulous new shower room downstairs. Mr Lopez brought us clean linen and towels half way through our stay and personally cleaned the pool. The main part of the pool starts at about 4ft 6 and goes down to 7ft.
I would definitely recommend this villa.
Thank you Mr Lopez we had a fabulous time.
Fabulous week in Frigiliana and lovely stay at Javiers villa. Great pool!

This villa is absolutely stunning and in the perfect location. Ralph was very helpful and answered all our questions and the owner met us to show us around and gave us his number to call if we had any issues but we didn't need to. The property was clean and had everything we needed. The pool area is lovely and the views are amazing! We will definitely stay here again next time we visit Frigiliana.

We had a very enjoyable stay, and our grandsons loved the pool. The house is very central for the village and has lovely views (and walks) both up and down the river valley. Inside the house was a little gloomy but the lovely patio and pool more than made up for that.

A perfect place to unwind. The house is exactly as shown and very clean and tidy throughout. As there was only two of us, we didn't venture upstairs at all! The pool was wonderful and many days were spent dipping in and out, and relaxing on the very large terrace.
Frigiliana is a beautiful village with plenty of lovely restaurants, with special mention for The Garden Restaurant and Restaurant Bar Virtudes. Watch out for those steep streets and steps!

What a lovely place in a great location in a lovely village.
Very helpful owners too.
I would only make 1 comment and that is that they say you have to use plastic cups by the pool (understandably) but they only provide 2. So more plastic cups needed.

The villa is located in a great spot, just off the main square of Frigilliana down a steep side road by the Restaurant Bar virtudes. My husband and son embarked on a few hikes up in the mountains, a great location if you're into walking. The villa was very clean on arrival, with great indoor and outdoor space. There was a terrace through double doors off the living room, which looked down on to the pool. The weather was beautiful and this area was a real suntrap. We had the sun from early morning and lost it around 4.30pm. The queen bedroom was also located off the living room, with a small balcony which showed off the stunning valley down to the river. There were a few basics there when we arrived, but we visited the little mini market up the street which was very well stocked and reasonably priced. The nearest Mercadona is a 10 min drive down the road to Nerja, taxi fare around EUR12. The garden also contained lovely orange trees which the children enjoyed picking and squeezing. We d

The Villa is fantastic. The owners are very accommodating (met us early as we needed to pick up our remaining party from Malaga airport). Communication was good. Prime location for access to the village set down a steep side street and has it's own parking for three cars (at a premium in Frigiliana nowadays). Very spacious and clean with a lovely swimming pool and sun terrace with clear views down the stunning river gorge. Large separate kitchen, dining room and lounge area. We had a wonderful week here.

Excellent 3 bed villa with terrace and good pool with shallow section for youngsters. Overlooks river gorge so feels like you are in the country but are only 75 metres from the village. In shade in the evening which is good in the hottest weather. Frigiliana is a perfect village with lots of restaurants but is quiet and not over-full of tourist shops etc. Basic shops only in village. Otherwise it is a 10 minute drive to Nerja resort for sea. 1 hour drive to Alhambra. 50 minutes to Malaga Airport.

The owner was the perfect host. Showed us around her lovely property which was in very clean condition. It had everything we expected and more kitchen was very well equipped with everything you could need, lots of glassware, crockery, cutlery, pans, etc. We had a problem getting the gas rings to work in first day and the owner came immediate to fix the problem. It just was properly attached. Frigiliana is a beautiful village and just a few miles from busier Nerja. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would recommend this property.
