Fantastic!
Fabulous property... check in was very thorough. Roy made sure we knew about the full property and gave us information about the local area and restaurants. Kitchen facilities were extensive... plenty of plates/glasses/ mugs etc and every utensil and gadget you can think of. Wifi access was great. We hired a car and found the villa easily...just make sure your satnav doesn't send you down the road with the potholes (ours did but there is a much better route to the property!) The sound system throughout the villa is a real bonus. We had an amazing week and would love to return soon!

Amazing villa
Stayed here last summer for 2 weeks as a mixed family party of 8, including a toddler. Property was amazing, really clean, beautiful facilities, with great bedroom options. Kitchen well equipped. Pool area fabulous with great views and fabulous bbq and kitchen area at poolside. Great soft seating and dining options on the patio so differentiated day time to evening dining. Only thing to be aware of it can be breezy so be careful with things blowing away. Incredible stay, definitely recommend and would love to return one day. Thank you to the team

Summer 23
Our two families (4 adults and 4 children) had a fantastic two week stay at La Huerta Vieja. The villa is located in the middle of a valley with breathtaking views of the mountains from the spacious pool. The villa itself has been renovated to a very high standard with the smallest of details thought of throughout. The location of the villa is very good with plenty to do locally albeit you will need a car. The property management was excellent and every small request we made was dealt with promptly. The villa was exceptionally clean and very well equipped with a huge kitchen and great BBQ area. We all highly recommend this villa!

80th birthday family holiday
A perfect holiday was had by all during our stay at La Huerta Vieja. En-suite bedroom downstairs with direct access to the patio and pool was ideal for my parents. The wrap around terrace on the first floor allowed the teenagers to find their own space during the day. Pool area was amazing with very comfortable sun loungers and day bed. The multiple outdoor seating areas around the property were fantastic for breakfast, lunch, pre dinner drinks and dinner. We enjoyed picking oranges from the trees and having a fresh juice every morning. The football and golf fanatics in our group enjoyed having access to multiple sport channels. We would highly recommend a stay and will definitely return.

Beautiful Villa
What a fabulous villa with fantastic outdoor space and a great pool. The views from the villa are beautiful although the drive along the roads to the villa are a bit hairy. Consequently we used a local taxi service to restaurants in town. We found Christobal taxis very reliable. We had a wonderful time and would thoroughly recommend this villa.

Very nice villa with everything you need for a great holiday. We stayed as 3 couples with children and there was plenty of space for everyone.
Only suggestion would be to try and get the wifi connection round the pool to be better as the Sonos system regularly loses connection

Beautiful Villa
Stunning Villa with excellent facilities. Pool is fantastic, and also had many on evening enjoying the views from the terrace after bbqs. Off the beaten track, but in many ways that’s a good thing. Very peaceful, and actually not difficult to get to the coast/ beaches, great local Mercadona supermarket and great places to visits like Ronda, Caminito Del Rey, etc. Also some excellent road cycling to be had from the Villa. Kamagabikes.com in Marbella excellent for road and mountain bike hire. Would recommend rides to Mijas and Aloizana.

Joyous week in the Spanish countryside
Just spent a joyous week there as a group of 4 adults and 2 children. It’s the most stunning place and now perfect for even bigger families or groups of friends with the accompanying property, La Casita.
Such a beautiful place and close enough to ‘things to do and places to go’ if you fancy it, but also wonderfully secluded if you don’t.

Amazing Villa with Beautiful, Peaceful Surroundings
When we (Family of 10) arrived at the Villa and the gates opened we couldn't believe how amazing the villa looked with so much space, and great views of the mountains. Plus it had plenty of places for everyone to find there own little spot to sit and chill. The Villa had everything you could want for a perfect relaxing holiday, we all loved sitting by the pool and enjoyed the BBQ area most nights. I made the mistake of not hiring a car so would recommend getting one for a few days as the Supermarkets are around a 10 minute drive away. The Weather was great and we couldn't have asked for a better Holiday and have no negative comments to make, so many thanks to John the Owner, the whole family loved it.

A fabulous villa. Clean, modern and spacious,set in beautiful gardens with outstanding views.
We shared the villa with our Canadian relatives, there were 3 couples, but ample space for us all. We spent our time there, in and out of the lovely pool, playing table tennis and enjoying drinks and lovely food cooked on the barbe-cue.There was a susperb choice of sunbeds loungers and even a couple of hammocks to soak up the rays. With fantastic entertainment inside, we could watch, tv, films and listen to our favourite music in the evenings. With the town only a 10 minute drive away we were never short of supplies or restaurants and bars.
The villa is also ideally situated for day trips. With Gibraltar less than 2 hours away by car we spent a day there with very excited Canadians. We also took in the sights and charm of Mijas and Puerto Benus and the resorts of Benalmadena and Torremolinas.However the favourite part of our stay was relaxing in peace and quiet by the pool with cold drinks and warm sunshine.Just heaven!

Happy days 🌞
This is a beautiful villa in a very private country location . We loved the silent times of day. Waking in the morning to the wonderful views.
Everything is as described so no disappointments. Quality furnishings, good beds, well equipped. Everything you could want. We loved every day and would highly recommend it for couples or families.
Worth mentioning, if you want to explore the area car hire is essential. Excellent outdoor BBQ area and pool we used it a lot, only ate out occasionally.
