We stayed in Los Olivos in mid-August and had the best week away we can remember in recent years! In the middle of nowhere, the cottages offer a perfect escape from the stresses and strains of work, and I defy anyone not to totally unwind there. I read five books in a week - a record for me! We almost... more

We arrived in 36 degree heat! After a fairly smooth journey from the hire company near the airport, beers and wine in the fridge and a spectatcular view from Los Olivos was everything my partner and I needed. We simply left our unpacked cases in the property, and promptly opened the wine and sat down on the terrace with big... more

It's taken us a while to write this. We first stayed at Los Olivos in July 2007, and, as we drove back to the airport, already started looking forward to the next visit - which was in March/April of this year (2008). We like to think of it as our little home in Andalucia. Within an hour of being there... more

After much searching for a late winter / early spring romantic get away for my boyfriend and I, I came across this little gem that ticked all my boxes. (We are a professional couple in our late 20’s). Private, great views, away from everything and away from the tourist trap the costa del sol is so often associated with. Casa... more

Having just read the reviews, we felt prompted to add our own comments. We stayed in Casa Limones last year and really enjoyed it, so much so that we've just booked Los Olives (by way of a change) for a week this year. We found the cottage to be just as it was described on the website - rustic, homely,... more

We loved our week at Los Olivos last year - Maureen [the owner]made us very welcome but was not intrusive in our private space. We stayed in Los Olivos but as Casa Limones was empty at the time had sole use of the shared pool which was a lovely! Los Olivos is set on the edge of a mountain with... more

"Amazing" is the word we'd probably use to describe Casa Limones and Los Olivos. A group of us had an absolutely fantastic time over Christmas and New year - we hired both cottages. I must admit I was quite surprised by the comments the previous visitor to the cottages left. They don't truly reflect what's on offer. We certainly weren't... more

Well, headed for Andalucia to what we thought was going to be a very select high class villa for two weeks of quiet, sun and relaxation. Before booking this villa (two available - Casa Limones, Los Olivos) we had Los Olivos I very expicitly emailed the owner to ask 2 questions: 1. Are there mosquitos (husband gets poorly when unedr... more
