View is second to none!

The terrace on Beatriz’s property is fantastic - we were able to enjoy relaxing out there and felt we were close enough to touch the Alhambra. The house is very clean and well positioned for catching the mini buses which go down to the town and also the Alhambra. We were 2 couples sharing the house, and my only comment would be that the kitchen is very tiny, as is the one bathroom. However we knew this when we selected to stay here, as our overriding reason for selecting Beatriz’s house was for the view. Beatriz was very quick to respond to any questions we had, met us right on time at check-in and very kindly organised taxis for us when we were leaving. Thanks Beatriz!

Exactly what I pictured a trip to Spain would be!

Beatriz was the most friendly and welcoming host. I had an accident in Barcelona and when we arrived in Granada Beatriz was so compassionate and caring to me. I cannot say enough about this property- there is so much history here! The beds were very comfortable, the air conditioning was so lovely in the hot July weather. This property was in an ideal location where we could walk to everything, and the views are unbeatable. We would go out to dinner or to a flamenco show and we went to tour the Palace, but no matter what we did I could not wait to get back to our villa and sit on the rooftop terrace and look at the lit up palace :-) This was my first trip to Spain or Europe altogether and I have to tell you that we are staying in Granada at this home is the highlight of my trip and something I will never forget . I hope I am lucky enough to come back and stay in this house.

The best rental in Granada

I can't say enough wonderful things about this rental. The location is wonderful, the host was incredibly helpful and kind, the views of Alhambra are unparalelled, and the apartment was clean and beautiful with lots of character. It is clear that the owner/host takes great care to maintain and enhance the apartment. We have stayed at a lot of vacation rentals all over the world and agree that this is the best one we have ever stayed at with the best value. Thank you for making our time in Granada amazing. This place was the cherry on top.

Best VRBO Ever

We have stayed at many rental properties over the years, and this one is by far our favorite. The pictures do not do this place justice. It is so much better than we expected. The large terrace with the stunning view of the Alhambra was difficult to leave. I could have stayed there the whole visit. We bought wine and enjoyed it on the terrace every night. The neighborhood is cute, wandering around looking for tapas was tons of fun. Used Uber several times for getting around, never waited long. Used the bus to Alhambra from the bus stop right by the house, super convenient. If you are considering booking this place, don’t wait. Do it. You won’t be sad!

Amazing views!

Great place to stay with incredible views. This apartment serves as an excellent place to stay and experience the beautiful of Granada. Check in is in person which I believe is required in Spain, but still annoying to need to coordinate upon arrival. A reminder that it is in the Albaicin and like any place there is on top of a hill. Just something to be aware of if you plan to wall into the heart of the city a lot. You basically get a private version of the San Nicolas viewpoint from this apartment. Truly incredible.

Spotless with incredible views!

The apartment was perfect for our short getaway with friends. The terrace is unreal with impressive views of the Alhambra and perfect for aperitivos. Everything was spotlessly clean. Kitchen was perfect for our needs and beds comfortable. Perfect location too just 15min walk from the main sights. Thank you!

Beautiful home away from home!

Beatriz was a wonderful host. She greeted us at check-in and showed us everything we needed to know about her lovely family home and the surrounding area.The location is perfection and is walking distance to many restaurants, shopping and the shuttle bus. Among the many highlights of our stay in Granada was the breathtaking views of the Alhambra from the apartment. I highly recommend booking this beautiful apartment for your stay in Granada. We enjoyed our stay very much. Simply the best!

Fabulous flat

Beatriz was awesome. Met us at the VRBO and showed us everything. Information printed out and laminated for us, very easy to use. Views were amazing! Keys for front door were very difficult to use- often would not work!! Shower drain slow…. Water was backing up. Overall it was a great place, I would stay here again.

Fabulous apartment & location!

Beatriz made checking in and out smooth and easy , even arranging a taxi to the station on our check out day. The apartment was a delight with stunning views of the Alhambra from every room! There are two outside spaces a balcony and a huge terrace but with the same amazing views. The kitchen was small but had everything you could need to make a meal not that you have too as you are situated in the heart of the Albaicín with plenty of restaurants all around you. We loved our stay and would happily stay again if we are in Granada. I highly recommend this apartment. You should note however that there are a lot of stairs. Not an issue for us at all and in fact the whole UNESCO Albaicín neighborhood is hilly with lots of steps so you will need to do stairs to stay in this area

Séjour exceptionnel

Beatriz est une hôte charmante, chaleureuse, efficace et discrète. La maison est très agréable, bien équipée et très propre. On s'y sent bien immédiatement. Elle est située dans un environnement très calme, proche des commerces et d'un quartier très animé. La vue sur l'Alhambra est exceptionnelle, vous avez le privilège d'avoir un mirador privé dans la maison et sur la terrasse supérieure. Tout cela a rendu notre séjour inoubliable. La seule question : quand pourrons -nous y revenir?

One of the Best VRBO I HAVE Rented

The apartment is happily better than I imagined. You could not have a more accommodating host, amenities and location. There are views of the Alhambra from every main window and both, private patios. The photos do not do the apartment justice. We took a taxi from the train station which I highly recommend. There is a shuttle bus which stops right above the apartment, but is often too crowded to a comodate luggage. This may not be a suitable location if you have difficulty with stairs.

What a view!!!

This house has one of the most amazing unobstructed views of the Alhambra, Generelife and the Sierra Nevada mountains! Better than the view you get at Mirador San Nicolas, because it is all yours on that beautiful giant balcony! It is convenient to walk, shop, restaurants, bus. The surroundings are quiet and serene. Beatriz is wonderful and responsive. I still can't believe I have to leave this place, it has been a truly amazing visit. Thank you Beatriz!

Grandioser Blick auf die Alhambra

Das Haus ist gemütlich eingerichtet und es ist alles vorhanden was für einen angenehmen Aufenthalt wichtig ist. Der Ausblick ist grandios: von allen Zimmern hat man die Alhambra vor Augen, die genau gegenüber auf dem Berg liegt. Obwohl der Stadtteil touristisch ist, sind die Zimmer total ruhig. Eine kleine Terrasse ist genau vor einem der Schlafzimmer, es gibt aber noch eine riesiger Dachterrasse- beide ebenfalls mit Blick auf die Alhambra. Leider konnten wir die Terrassen kaum nutzen, da es schon kalt und regnerisch war. Der Bus fährt hinter dem Haus ab, was sehr praktisch ist. Beatriz ist total nett und hilfsbereit. Diese Unterkunft war in unserem Andalusienurlaub die tollste und in jedem Fall ihr Geld wert.

Wonderful place with an AMAZING VIEW

This is a large apartment in the historic Ablaicin area with an amazing view. 4 people stayed here from the US (2 adults, 2 children - 10 and 8 years old) and we were very comfortable. The area is quiet and safe and everything is a 10-15 minute walk from your place. The interior furnishings are a little bit old, but the overall accommodations are amazing. We arrived after 22:00 and the owner helped educate how to arrive to the apartment from the airport and met us there for a short orientation. This was a very nice touch and much appreciated by our family. She also helped answer any questions we had during our stay. I am looking forward staying here again in the future!
