Stunning location

Only home from the cabin on the mountain. One of the best holidays we have had, beautiful place to stay relaxing and homely. Lena was fab from directions to meeting up to collect keys and then on to the cabin, which is breathtaking scenery, great wildlife which our grandson loved as well as a beautiful pool. We really loved this holiday we’re hoping it won’t be long till we’re back. Thanks Lena 😊

Hi Lena, Just to let you know, we've settled in well to your lovely cabin and have all we need. Spent a really hard, exhausting day yesterday sunbathing, swimming, snoozing etc 😉☀️😅 Could get used to life here very quickly! 😘😊 This was the message from this guest after 2 nights at the cabin!!! She then decided to leave early without letting me know and demanded a refund for totally fabricated problems. I dont respond to blackmail, hence this bitter ,untrue review. Luckily my honest guests leave truthful reviews.

This is our second stay in the cabin. Only home and will be re-booking for this year. We take our grandson who just loves everything to do with nature so he loves the animals,birds insects etc.The cabin is just perfect tranquil,surrounded by mango trees, close to the coast and supermarkets, perfectly clean with everything you need for a great stay, plus a great pool. The scenery is stunning and great for walking.The host Lena is so helpful explains everything you need to know to do with the cabin and surrounding area. From here you can do daytrips to the coast,Gibraltar, Nerja and a short drive to Competa which is a beautiful town just to sit have a coffee or the market on a Saturday. We hire a car from the airport and are at the cabin within the hour. Can’t wait to return. Thanks Lena for another great stay. Take care and see you soon x.

mooie berghut in volle natuur . prima ontvangst

vriendelijke ontvangst ,Lena kwam ons ophalen. de berghut is in de natuur een 6 tal km langs onverharde wegen, moeilijk te vinden, eens je er bent is het een oase van rust met het nodige comfort , hou er wel rekening mee dat je met een kleine huurwagen in principe niet off road mag , beter een aangepaste wagen huren . prachtige dorpen en stranden op 6 -8 km

Retraite dans les montagnes

On se sent vraiment coupé du monde dans le chalet de Lena, c'est très reposant. C'est à chaque fois l'aventure pour y accéder mais on s'y sent comme chez soi. Et la vue à coupé le souffle tous les matins donne envie de rester encore u.n peu plus chaque fois. Magnifique expérience ! J'y retournerai

Dangerous Road

The property was located on a several mile one lane terrible road with dangerous high cliffs that was impossible to drive at night. We drove it 6 times and decided to just leave the property even though we had paid for 34 days.
Response from VrboOwner on 10 April 2020
Firstly I want to post the message I sent to these guests when they first enquired about the cabin. Hi Stanley The elevation is only 300 meters, so never any snow. February can be a little unpredictable but never very cold but sometimes rain. On the other hand it can be beautiful and sunny and up to 20 degrees! It was this year. The track up from the coast in only 6 km and half way a dirt track and half concrete but easily done with a normal car unless there is torrential rain. There is another way in from Competa which is all paved road until the last km. Some people have never driven on any mountain roads so find it very different than driving in the cities! I just wanted to make sure that you were aware of the location and not get a surprise. If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to ask. Kind regards Lena I am always totally honest about the location and access to the cabin as I do not want unhappy or the wrong type of guests. These elderly couple were completely unsuitable guests for the cabin . As you can see from other reviews we have had many happy guests who do not find the location a problem. Also these guests did not even bother to try the other access. What if found totally unbelievable and despicable is that they left the property without telling me and left in unlocked and unsecured for 2 weeks before bothering to let me know. I rest my case.

Séjour Eté 2019

Nous avons passé 10 jours très agréable cet été (Juillet 2019) dans le chalet de Lena et nous avons apprécié notre séjour. Le chalet est correct et spacieux, situé dans la montagne au calme, la piscine est suffisamment grande et les équipements sont nombreux. La route pour arriver au chalet fait un peu peur la première fois mais on s'y habitue et à la fin ca n'est plus qu'une formalité. Attention à quand même prévoir de l'eau en bouteille, nous nous sommes fait piéger le premier soir. Enfin Lena est très gentille, et nous a souvent conseillé.

Stunningly beautiful cottage surrounded by nature!

We were enchanted by Lena’s cottage! The remote aspect totally appealed as we search for holidays that provide peace and quiet with the quality of nature. Our two little ones of 5 and 3 had such fun walking in the hills and attempting to swim in the pool! It was a fabulous base for discovering Andalucía. In particular, we enjoyed the treetop adventure park in Villanueva de Trabuco, the beach at Burriana and returning to Lena’s gorgeous hillside hideaway in the evening. Lena herself is very endearing - she felt like a friend after only a 30 minute chat! She was very hospitable with everything and we cherish our holiday memories.

A perfect place to relax.

We spent two wonderful weeks in this little piece of paradise.The house is well equipped, comfortable and has a unique charm.The views all around are stunning. The pool temperature was perfect. We loved everything about the property. Lena, the owner, is friendly and helpful and was on hand if we needed anything. She met us at the coast and led the way up to the house which was very welcome as we arrived in the evening. It is easy enough to find once you've been shown. We would love to return sometime in the future.

A peaceful haven

If you want lots of activities and bustling nightlife this is not the place for you. However, if like us you prefer to see the other side of Spain and enjoy walking in stunning countryside then this is a perfect base. The house is very unique and a bit quirky but has all the essentials you need. The pool is ideal for cooling down and the views along the valley from the balcony are amazing. We even spotted eagles soaring above. Owners are very helpful and easy to get in touch with at all times. The roads are quite challenging but certainly "doable" if you are not in a rush Weather was fantastic and we had a wonderful holiday here. Definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys nature and a peaceful life. .

A beautiful spot

The location has many benefits: it has the most astounding views; privacy and solitude; the joy of a truly dark sky full of stars. A great place to simply chill and relax, we loved it for that. The house itself has everything you need and the plunge pool is a fantastic resource for hot days. I lost count of the hours I spent simply drinking in the views, or floating in the pool, eyes closed, enjoying the sounds of nature. The location did have one drawback for us and that was the drive up to and down from it to the main roads. Plenty of people will find it thrilling but we found it an ordeal. We would suggest that visitors invest in a 4x4 to ease the drive, although plenty of people obviously manage without. Our host Lena has no issues with driving her saloon car up to the house for example. We’d also suggest people ensure they do the drive the first time in daylight. Lena was lovely and very helpful, leading us up to the property and showing us around, giving information about the area etc, she couldn’t have been nicer. All in all a great place to stay, if a little difficult to get to.
