Calle Iglesia, 40, 29452 Cartajima, Spain –

Lock in a great price for Los Castaños – rated 9.5 by recent guests!

to get started.

This is a very delightful and well located bed and breakfast. The area is so beautiful and quiet. The town is lovely and well tended. The hotel has wonderful moroccan influenced decor, terrific breakfasts and dinners, comfortable beds and various relaxing spaces to hang out and enjoy. Di and John provide the perfect balance of helpfulness and care, yet allowing for private space and time to relax.

Robert, Spain

Di is a superb cook. We had a great and interesting stay. We got great directions to Ronda (not to be missed). The village is very nice. A great stay in Andalucía!

Margareta, United States of America

Amazing, beautiful accommodations in a gorgeous location ...felt like we were visiting friends in their private home. Gracious hospitality and delicious food. Owners went out of their way to “find us” and to provide every comfort.

Henry, United States of America

Beautiful, peaceful, in a small town setting. And the hosts treat us like family

Curtis, United States of America

The entire experience of staying in a small very friendly village at Los Castanos is unforgettable.

Nancy, United States of America

The hotel is amazing!!!! Very clean and comfortable with amazing view (we had a room with the balcony). Lovely breakfasts! Amazing owners!

Lena, United States of America

I really liked the room decor which is not creation of chance and in the same time is cozy and not from ikea calatofue. I also admired the view from the window. The owners were nice and kind, they helped us finding a parking slot and gave recommendations for visiting Ronda.

Weronika, Poland

loved it - owners are just lovely, breakfast was outstanding. Very homely place.

Siobhan, Ireland

The location is lovely, you are in the middle of a beautiful white village with a great view. The room is quite big with a cosy little balcony. The terace is perfect for having a coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening. Breakfast is delicious with local food and good variety. I loved the silence and actually not hearing any noise as you are far away from the national road. There is a little bar near the hotel where locals meet and you can enjoy a glass of wine, a beer or some tapas. The hotel doesn’t have private parking, but there are plenty of parking spots 1 min walk away from the hotel. The hosts are very kind and very helpful, they can recommend you nearby places to visit. I definitely recommend the hotel for an authentic andalusian experience.

Maria, Romania

Los Castanos is a rare find. I went for a 4 day solo hiking holiday and it was perfect in all respects. Di and John are such friendly and knowledgeable hosts and made me so welcome. The place is beautifully appointed and my room exceeded my expectations. I had dinner at Los Castanos on 3 of my 5 nights and it was lovely food with great company. John is such an unassuming and modest host - about the nicest guy I've met in such a situation. Overall I'd rate this as the most enjoyable booking.com trip I've done in the last decade. Such a great place!

Located in the middle of a small village, this boutique hotel has lots of character. You can soak up the Spanish sun on the roof terrace and refresh yourself in the paddling pool.

Experience authentic Andalusia in the remote white village of Cartajima. This hotel has stunning views over the mountainous countryside.

Keep up-to-date and email friends on the free internet connection. Alternatively, relax with a good book in the Castaños' library or choose between a good selection of films, games and music.

Each bedroom of the Castaños is decorated uniquely and has an intimate ambiance thanks to the decor which is inspired by Andalusia's tradition and culture. You can make yourself a cup of tea or coffee and sleep well in the king-size beds or twin beds. Some rooms have mountain views.

Begin the day with the Castaños' buffet breakfast and then return to the hotel for a candle-lit dinner in a romantic setting.

This property also has one of the top-rated locations in Cartajima! Guests are happier about it compared to other properties in the area.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.6 for a two-person trip.

This property is also rated for the best value in Cartajima! Guests are getting more for their money when compared to other properties in this city.

An Inside Look at Los Castaños

Los Castanos is a spacious and airy building. The guest rooms are considerably larger than the Spanish average at 22 square metres approximately. The open plan ground floor has a convivial atmosphere which results in a salon type atmosphere on most busy evenings. The piece de resistance is the rooftop terrace with extraordinary views of the mountains of the Serrania. Guests spend hours watching stars, observing the villagers below as they come and go, taking the sun or reading in the shade.

Hotel surroundings – Guests loved walking around the neighborhood!

“Extremely enjoyable”
- • Leisure trip

- • Deluxe Double Room with Balcony
- • Stayed 5 nights
It's hard to find anything to fault Los Castanos itself but the village of Cartajima is pretty small and isolated and it might not suit everyone. I had dinner in the local bar on one night and it was fine. However, the so-called village "shop" has almost no basic provisions e.g. hiking food etc, so I had to rely on the generosity of Di and John for some hiking sandwiches etc. The nearest big place is Ronda (20 km) and I'm not sure everyone would enjoy a late night drive from there after dinner. On the other hand, there are great local hikes from the village and John is extremely knowledgeable about where to go etc. So if you want to escape the hordes of tourists in Ronda and don't mind a bit of solitude and quiet, it's fine.

Hmmmmmm, can't think of anything really.
Basically, we liked everything. :) Di and John are charming and very interesting hosts, we spent a lovely evening chatting with them, sat in front of a warm and inviting fireplace sipping a delicious copa de tinto; Di is an excellent cook, we enjoyed our dinner very much and she was gracious enough to give me her recipe for the yummy salmon dish she cooked up for us in no time; the 'hotel' is beautifully and charmingly decorated and located in a most beautiful village in magnificent countryside. What more could one wish for?

Los Castanos is a very nice place to stay and Di and John are great hosts. The tiny little village Cartajima is very nice for a short evening walk and the surrounding nature is breathtaking. From the roof top where John served us a very nice 'welcome' glass of wine, we enjoyed the panoramic view. Breakfast was very nice. We had lovely fresh fruit and Di can make all kind of eggs. Di also cooked us twice a very nice evening meal. On my request she cooked vegetarian and low carb and she made the best salmon. After diner we enjoyed the evening discussion with the other guests. Cartajima has only one restaurant which was closed when we looked for a place to have diner. We drove the 6 km to Juzcar, the village of the Smurfs, for a simpel but nice meal in a local restaurant. The famous city of Rhonda is a must see and it's only a short drive from Cartajima. We did a bird watching tour with this lovely man Peter Jones. We only had to step into his car and he showed us the beautiful country side and telling us all we wanted to know about its 'flying residents'. We spotted birds and nests, enjoyed the beautiful landscape, plants and flowers. For lunch Peter took us to an authentic local restaurant where we had a tasty meal.

“Not good value for money”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Double Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
1) We choose this hotel because of the location - we thought it will be quiet. It was, but only 1 night, when we were alone in the hotel with no other guests. The next night the loud music for the other guests dinner was turned on until late. And we heard all their conversations and music downstairs and couldn't sleep. There should be some quiet hours politics 2) It was too hot in the room. The only suggestions which we received from the owners was to open the balcony. But there was also loud music outside when we opened the doors. 3) We had here the most expensive dinner for the whole 17 days trip in Andalusia (including Sevilla, Granada and other big cities). VAT is not included in the rate which owner writes to you in advance. The dinner was ok, but not for the price we paid (more than 100 eur).
Cleanliness Very good Breakfast Sunrise view on the terrace Convenient location to drive to Ronda and other white villages nearby

Spending little time there.
Los Castaños is located in Cartajima, a city very close to Ronda (around 20min by car). We spent one night there after visiting Ronda and on our way to Granada. I regretted not spend 2 nights there. Cartajima is a city where the time seems to stop. Not because of the age of the city, but due to the tranquility, only break with the church bell and the swallows singing in the sunset. It was like we were being hosted by family or friends. The hotel looks like a house with some guest rooms and has cozy decoration. They served drinks before the dinner and we had it while watching the sunset (dinner is optional but I suggest you take it). Likewise, the breakfast was excellent. Bathroom amenities are made from local olive oil and the room was much comfortable. There are some tracking close by, winers visiting and El Caminito Del Rey to go while you stay in Los Castaños.
