Vacation Rentals in Carratraca

Daiga United Kingdom

We were after a villa where we could get the family together after the Covid restrictions lifted. We picked Finca Alcaparain and I'm glad we did. It is about 40 minutes drive from Malaga airport in a rural location. It is not far off the main road although the drive can be a bit tricky to find, because it goes through a tunnel under the road. We had to ring the owners who were waiting for us and then they showed us the way. The house itself is really spacious and clean. It was 10 of us including children and we had plenty of room for everyone. The pool is not huge but big enough to cool down, it is very deep but has steps at the one end. The pool area has a gate that can be closed to keep the children away from it. There is no air-conditioning downstairs in the living areas, but to be honest we didn't really miss it. Even when it was 35ºC outside it was still pleasant inside. The kitchen is very well equipped and we cooked most dinners at home. There were plenty of plates, glasses, various pots and pans, and even two coffee makers. We even gave the outside BBQ a go and the results were great. When we arrived the owners had left us plenty of ice cubes in the freezer and a bottle of wine and some beer in the fridge. That was greatly appreciated! There are only small local food stores in the two local towns that open in the afternoon. So if you need to buy food it's best to stop off on the way from Malaga. There are Aldi & Lidl in Cartama about 25 minutes drive away from the house, just off A-357 (the road to and from Malaga). The location is very rural, but it is not far from the lakes. One of the lakes even has a blue flag beach, although it only has a small car-park that fills up quickly. So if you go later you might need to park further. Caminito Del Rey is another place worth visiting. It is only 15 minutes away and absolutely stunning. It is very popular and needs pre-booking though.

Finca El Albero is a stunning property with views of the mountains surrounding Carratraca. The house is in excellent condition with a lovely pool. Our family and friends thoroughly enjoyed our time there in August 2022 and the hosts were super-helpful.

Everything in the house was absolutely great. It was a bit windy outside as the house is on a hill. The advantage of such a location is an amazing view - at night you can see the illuminated city, and during the day the mountains show up. The place was very peaceful and you could help yourself with the oranges and lemons lying around the garden. As for the house, it was big enough for ten people, with open space and two fireplaces. It was very clean and well equipped. The common space was very cosy.

Wonderful accommodation en una pueblo bonito! Good bedding and amenities provided. The house was close to the centre of the village where good restaurants and a supermarket are located. As it was far from sources of light, the view of the night sky was amazing!
