This is the best! Tapaluz is a perfect place to have a relaxing break. Not only for this however, because it is situated close to Malaga and other interesting places I would also recommend this.

We discovered Tapa Luz nestled in the glorious mountains of Andalucia 40 minutes from Malaga and we are so glad we did as it made our holiday. We didn't stay there, we had a villa about 10 minutes down the track, but we ate dinner there twice and we'll be staying next time in one of the achingly gorgeous rooms... More

Breakfast is great. Proper fruit salad, plain yoghurt, cold meats and cheese, good coffee, fresh orange, bread, muffins, croissants, and homemade jams,... More

Tapaluz is a place that really embraces you! The setting, the scenery, the decoration, everything is amazing and heartwarming. But most of all, the hospitality of Jean & Luc will make sure that you will definitively come back to enjoy a wonderful holiday.

My wife and I recently returned from a week-long trip to southern Spain and our stay at Tapa Luz was the highlight. First, the location is beautiful. Sitting in the court yard, looking out at the foothills and sipping coffee was fantastic. If you're in to road cycling, the twisty, winding, hilly roads were super fun and incredibly scenic.
