    In their description in booking.com they informed they would have a shuttle from Málaga airport or a taxi, but it turned out to be only a taxi (~80 EUR). There are many different Capistrano named enterprizes in the area which was confusing. The address of the reception given in booking.com took us far from the right place when using Google maps. Long way up to a steep hill with all the luggage and then it appearead to be totally wrong place. When the reception is closed you really don't get any help from anywhere. They don't have backup and they don't answer the phone. The apartment was quite far from the reception. The personel was unpolite. Maybe he tried to be funny but he didn't succeed in that. In the apartment there was only one bin for trashes although there were recycling facilities in the area. Toilet seat wastes so much water!

    Surroundings were lush, green, well maintained garden/park and very quiet. Nice, spacy, reasonably equipped apartment.

    The whole area is just a tourist reservation. While nice and safe, it's not actually where locals live or spend their time. Read/learn more abou the area, it's an unusually huge recreation park for adults :) Interesting to explore though.

    It looks and feels authentic, which is the main advantage. Going down to the beach is a pleasant walk, not so much going back up the hill.

    Unfortunately, it was not what we booked, we booked a 1 bed apartment on ground level, with a terrace garden(as we have a dog), and husband has mobility issues, but this was a 2 bed and had steps , fortunately, not many, Apartments are typical Spanish deco and very old, but that is reflected in the low cost of rental. Also the area has a big problem with cats, every bit of soil area was full of cat poo, and was not a nice smell .

    Spacious and clean,, great large sunny terrace, good Wi-Fi

    We missed the evening sun on the balcony, and somewhat the view of the ocean - but the view of the mountains is also breathtaking. A cosy lounge group on the balcony would have been nice - but without the late sun it probably wouldnt be used so much. Now we are being picky - we had two nice weeks, loved it and would gladly return!

    We love the area and return frequently, always living in Capistrano. The apartment was situated right at the reception, very spacious balcony with morning sun. Small kitchen but with all you need - especially appreciated the hot air toaster oven! With afternoon sun and a lounge group this would have been a strong 10! Happy to return!

    The only minor downside is that some of the furnishings are a bit dated, but this is hardly an issue given the charm and cleanliness of the place. I highly recommend this place.

    I stayed for four nights at this place, and it was an absolutely fantastic and enchanting experience. The area is incredibly beautiful and peaceful, and the apartment is exceptionally clean and spacious. It's well-equipped with all the necessary amenities, including a washing machine, making it suitable for families. The terrace is very spacious and offers breathtaking views. The apartment is conveniently close to the beach, just a 25-minute walk or five minutes by car. The pool is lovely and well-maintained, with separate pools for adults and children. The fact that there's free parking and a Carrefour supermarket, an ATM, and a tennis court nearby adds to the convenience. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Mr. Jauier, who is a kind, helpful, and English-speaking individual. He provided me with many recommendations for places to visit in the area.

    The apartment was lacking in quite a few things eg chopping board ,sink drainer. Could also do with an updated kitchen. Only 1 socket in kitchen for appliances and the fridge freezer was plugged in very dangerously through a cupboard via an extension lead running over the bin.

    We were at oasis Capistrano,the location was great,2 very quiet swimming pools

    We stayed in a 4 bedroom Villa. It was well equipped but the only downside was the outside furniture really needs to be updated and there was no sun loungers available in the Villa to enjoy the garden. The sun loungers at the pool cost €3.50 each per day.

    Beautiful complex, well maintained pool area and gardens.Receptionist very helpful and informative. 20 mins walk to Centre. 2 large supermarkets close by .

    We had a two floor apartment and there were really squeaky metal stairs leading up to the second floor - as we had a baby sleeping downstairs, this was quite a challenge not to wake her up and also in case of some problems at night. Also, we heard sounds of those stairs from our neighbors :D

    The appartment was really big, with all things necessary in the kitchen, also very clean. The whole area lies in a lovely well maintained garden, we liked to stroll through it to the sea and city center. The staff was helpful and very friendly. We also had our appartment prepared wery early, which was really nice for us! We also enjoyed two teracces with beautiful views to the ocean and the gardens. We were able to walk to the beach through the nice city even with a 5 year old :)
