This was everything we would wish for in a holiday home. A beautifully clean and minimalist interior; a spacious balcony (and what sunsets!);a handy cove for swimming; a huge choice of restaurants and warm, friendly hosts. 100 percent recommendation from Maggie and John.

José Luis’s place is well-situated, just off the beach road leading to La Herradura, making it within walking distance of local amenities like the awesome beach, several chiringuitos, bakeries, coffee shops and provisioners. The piso is very well-equipped and the photos are accurate. The beds are comfortable, the bathrooms nice and the terrace is a real treat! The kitchen has just about everything needed to prepare meals with fresh local produce and meats or seafood. For half of our stay there were three of us, and only two for the remainder, and the apartment could easily handle a fourth guest.Check-in was not in person, but José Luis provided clear instructions on finding the location and accessing the apartment. We would gladly return.

This was our second visit to this lovely apartment and the hosts are very welcoming and friendly. It is wonderfully located for the short walk into town and has numerous parking spaces available that are free to use. The panoramic sea views from the large balcony really are something to enjoy and remember. The apartment itself has a very modern style and is very well equipped. We really enjoyed our stay and hopefully will get the opportunity to visit again in the not too distant future.Andrew and Diana

Perfect winter get-away!

The apartment is beautifully appointed, contemporary and ideally located. It is overlooking the Herradura Bay from all windows. The large outside terrace was perfect in January with weather 65 degrees F and lots of sun. It’s a 3 min walk to the beach and several fabulous restaurants and grocery markets. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back!!! José and his wife are the best hosts - friendly, professional and happy to provide information about the area and things to do!

Very nice apartment with amazing view

We have just had the pleasure to stay a week in this wonderful apartment. Well equipped and clean with an amazing view over the bay and La Herradura. Only comment is that madras was hard, but tenet promptly responded that they will fix that. All in all tenants have been very nice and responded promptly to all our questions and requests. We also had a very smooth check-in and check-out. The area is very nice with beach and restaurants in walking distance. Most shopping can be done in Alumnecar. We liked our stay so much that we have already booked our next stay in October and can only give our best recommendations.

La Herradura

We stayed in this apartment for 7 weeks in oct/nov and had a great time there. This was our 8th visit to La Herradura so we know the area well. The apartment is one of the best we have rented here. It is very well equipped, so we made most of our meals there. It's only a 6 min's walk to the beach and the nearest restaurant. We love hiking in the mountains so La Herradura is perfect with just a short drive Rio de la Miel and Rio Verde Valley. We loved the view from the balcony, watching the fishermen in the morning and the beautiful sunsets at night. We even saw dolphins three times. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay, and we hope to come back one day! Terje and Ann

Excellent séjour dans cet appartement très agréable. Vue magnifique avec une grande terrasse où nous avons pris la plupart de nos soupers en admirant le coucher du soleil. L’appartement est très propre et nous n’avons manqué de rien. Accueil par le propriétaire très apprécié. Communications rapides et très efficaces. Tous nos besoins ont été comblés rapidement. La plage est tout près. Nous avons adoré marcher tous les jours dans la petite ville de La Herradura. Merci pour ces belles vacances!

Comme à la maison!

Du 1er mai au 23 mai, nous avons passé un magnifique 3 semaines dans votre beau condo à La Herradura. Nous sommes arrivés dans un appartement d’une très grande propreté et très magnifique. Votre condo est bien divisé et offre un très beau séjour. La cuisine comprend tout pour faire à manger ainsi que des appareils qui fonctionnent très bien. La pièce extérieure nous a permis de prendre nos repas en regardant la mer et une vue magnifique de La Herradura et des montagnes environnantes. Comme il ne prend que quelques minutes, à pied, pour se rendre à la plage et au village, nous avons marcher chaque jour pour découvrir ce lieu à l’architecture très intéressante. Les gens sont très accueillants et heureux de faire connaître leur milieu de vie. Comme les montagnes sont très proches et faciles d’accès, nous avons découvert de très beaux petits villages et des gens formidables. Nous vous recommandons chaleureusement cette location et vous souhaitons un aussi beau séjour que celui qu’on a eu. Merci à nos propriétaires qui ont leurs visiteurs à coeur. Danielle et Yvan

La Herradura

This property was perfectly situated for a range of activities whether for a gentle local seaside stroll or as a base to explore further afield. An extremely well equipped apartment, quiet, comfortable and in truth, it exceeded our expectations. We spent over three weeks there - a terrific experience.

Modern apartment with spectacular view

Lovely apartment, best view we have experienced from the terrace. All mod cons, comfortable beds, very quiet but within 7 minutes walk of all the bars and restaurants. Check in was handled well by Jose Luis and his wife. Unfortunately, we arrived in La Herradurra at 12:00, they both work so could not let us in before 17:00. Otherwise, perfect.

Dear Linda & Harry, Thank you for your wonderful review! We are very happy you that you have spent a fantastic holiday.. Although the check-in time is at 5:00 p.m., if we can, we have no problem with the tenants arriving earlier, but sometimes it is totally impossible. I'm very sorry that you had to wait until 5:00 p.m. As you know that you are more than welcome. Wish you the best! José Luis del Castillo Gálvez

Super Apartment with Spectacular Views.

Owners met us at the apartment and showed us around. Extremely clean and well presented. Air conditioning in living room and both bedrooms with individual controls. Very well appointed kitchen with everything you could possibly need. But the star of the show is the balcony which extends the whole width of the apartment. Views are stunning. 5 minute walk to La Herradura beach. I highly recommend the apartment and we will certainly return. Thanks again to the owners for making our stay so good.
