Fantastic, well-equipped accommodation in a peaceful location.
Fantastic hosts in communication and always available. Highly recommended for anyone looking for accommodation for a family holiday.
Nice apartment, great host. Has all you need and the listing is accurate.About half an hour walk to the coast and a bit uphill on the way back. Pool is good. Underground parking as well. A quiet location but easy access to shops and bars but you do need a car.
Nicely maintained well-equipped apartment with beautiful views over the Med and local mountains- stunning sunrises! We were there to view the Solheim Cup so the location was perfect but generally the location is great for golfers. Bright and airy with a great sized balcony and at the time we were there it was very peaceful
The property has everything to cater for up to 4 people for a fantastic stay.
All facilities are available for cooking and washing except a bbq. The property is well stocked with cups, plates, bowls and pans.
The views from the balcony are wonderful from the point of waking up in the main bedroom, to sitting on the terrace to have a meal and drink watching the sunset.
The property is spacious and modern with full access to English tv channels and a dvd player.
The hosts are brilliant and great communicators. We will definitely be going back.
I have stayed for 3 weeks with my family, and from the first message the owner has responded me quick to all my questions. We asked for a baby crib because we were traveling with a 1 year old baby and they provided it us without any excuse.
The apartment is in a quiet residential area, so no noise around to disturb you. It has been clean, also the stuff.
Amazing views over golf course and sea, it is a privilege wake up every day with this views.

David and his family were excellent guests who clearly enjoyed their stay at our Doña Julia apartment on the Costa del Sol. The apartment is ideal for rest and relaxation but is also located close to major regional attractions to use as a base for travel. It is very light and stays cool during the very hot summer days although the pool is 2 mins away if needed! Parking and security are not an issue in this quiet residential area 15 mins from busy local beaches etc.
Great stay of 2 weeks in this amazing apartment.
Easy check-in as pre arranged,met at property by Jessica who showed us around,good communication from Bill and Patty.
Apartment had everything needed to make our stay comfortable,everything that you could need was provided.
Terrace was fantastic,with seating and sunbeds,only small comment we could make was the table for eating on the terrace was very small,even for just the two of us.
The sun on the terrace shone from morning till evening time
We didnt have a car,so the walk down to the coast with bars and restaurants takes approx 30 minutes.
Golf club short walking distance away,serving food and drinks from breakfast to late afternoon,but does not open in the evening.
A very comfortable stay.
This is one of the loveliest apartments we have holidayed in. It was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The sea view from the terrace was fantastic and we spent a lot of time out there just enjoying it. The pool area was very quiet and kept very tidy. 14 sunbeds are provided for users but often we were the only people there. We might just have been lucky as the school holidays were finished but still a good size pool area, even if it was a bit busier. There are also 2 sturdy and comfortable sunbeds provided on the terrace if not wanting to use the pool area to sunbathe. Communication with Bill was outstanding from start to finish. We were given lots of fantastic and useful information about the area before we left home and check in with Jessica went extremely smoothly thanks to his instructions. Everyone we met there was really friendly, from the chap who cleaned and tidied the pool and garden area to all the security people who manned the barrier - every time we drove in or out we got a friendly wave. Although you can walk to the beach, it’s quite hilly there. So ok for walking down but would be a workout walking back but we had a car anyway. Thank you Bill, we loved staying in your beautiful apartment and had the best time. We were so sad to leave but we will be back again.

Sitio increíble bonito, limpio, accesible. Hemos pasado unos días geniales para repetir, y la chica encargada del apartamento encantadora y pendiente de cualquier contratiempo. Vale muchísimo la pena.
Zona tranquila y muy limpia. Sitio para aparcar enfrente de la playa y gratis. Muy cerca de Estepona, 12 minutos en coche. Fabulosas vacaciones si se quiere tranquilidad y playa

Gracias por sus comentarios. De verdad, la zona es perfecta para unas vacaciones tranquilas en familia, cerca de excelentes playas y restaurantes locales.
L’appartement est parfait pour un séjour en famille, très propre et très bien équipé. La vue est magnifique. La place de parking un vrai plus. La résidence est calme sauf quand il y a une fête qui se déroule à côté et qui nous empêche de dormir (malheureusement c’est indépendant de la résidence).
Ein traumhafter Urlaub in einer tollen Wohnung. Preis Leistungsverhältnis ist top.Wir haben schon viel gesehen, aber diese Wohnung war besser. Toller Blick, schöner pool und viel Platz in der Wohnung. Parkplatz in der Tiefgarage war auch super.Vielen Dank für den Aufenthalt. VG Stefan und Familie

Hello Stefan,
Thank you for your strong positive review of our apartment. The area is very pleasant and generally quiet, perfect for relaxing on family hoidays. We are happy you enjoyed your vacation in Casares Playa.
Warm regards,
Bill & Patty
Unser Urlaub war insgesamt sehr gut.Das Objekt ist gut und die Umgebung ist top.Auch Jessica ist bei allem behilflich was so anliegt.Das einzige, was an der Wohnung negativ ist, das auf der Terrasse keine große Markise vorhanden ist.Man kann die Terasse bis ca. 16.00 Uhr nicht nutzen vor Hitze.Der Sonnenschirm ist nicht nutzbar, da er durch den Wind immer wieder umfällt.Aber insgesamt ist die Ferienwohnung zu empfehlen.

Thank you for the constructive review to your stay and we are glad you had a relaxing holiday, the location is perfect for that. We have had an awning in place previously but found it got damaged quickly by the wind, unfortunately one of the negative consequences of a corner apartment. Perhaps we need to look into a more stable parasol or heavier base. Thank you again for staying with us.
Estupendo apartamento y zona muy tranquila para la familiaº
El apartamento es una maravilla, con una limpieza y orden excepcionales.
La zona es super tranquila y a un paso en coche de la playa y la zona de San Luis de Sabinillas.
Se puede aparcar sin mucha dificultad para ir a la playa, y la playa es tranquila y familiar, donde hemos disfrutado con nuestros hijos.
Para comer y cenar, hay muy buenos sitios en la zona de la playa, donde se puede comer pescadito y unos espetos muy ricos.
Destacar lo atentos que estuvieron Bill y Patricia, así como Jessica, para cualquier necesidad / problema que nos surgió y dándonos recomendaciones para la zona - a nivel de playas, comidas, etc.
Unas muy buenas vacaciones en un sitio que nos ha gustado mucho
Para repetir.........
El apartamento está muy bien equipado, camas muy cómodas, vecindario tranquilo, buena ubicación junto a la autovía, hay facilidad para aparcar junto a la playa y tener plaza de garaje ha sido muy bueno. Bill ha sido muy amable y atento preocupándose de que se solucionase la avería de la piscina, si la hubiésemos podido disfrutar más días hubiera sido todo perfecto. En resumen, hemos pasado unas buenas vacaciones en vuestro alojamiento y lo recomendaría sin duda. Gracias
que solucionasen
Die Wohnung war super ausgestattet, und schön ruhig gelegen.
Pool war optimal und der Weg zum schönen Strand mit fünf minuten mit dem Auto erreichbar.
Wie waren sehr zufrieden, und empfehlen die Wohnung auf jeden Fall weiter.
Muy buen trato, llegamos antes y nos dieron la llaves enseguida. El apartamento tiene de todo y las camas muy cómodas. Una gran terraza y amplia piscina.La playa muy grande y con aparcamiento, ibas a última hora de la mañana y había sitio en primera línea y era una playa de arena, que por Málaga no siempre es así.
L appartement a une vue fantastique. Il est bien situé et proche de toutes les commodités. La piscine est fantastique et jamais bondée. L appartement est spacieux. Bill et Patty sont disponibles malgré la distance.
Il faudrait juste une table extérieure un peu plus grande et avoir un deuxième ventilateur pour se passer de la climatisation (un dans chaque chambre).
Nous reviendrons certainement dans cet appartement.
Belle terrasse avec vue imprenable sur la Méditerranée
L’appartement est très bien situé à quelques minutes de la plage et des épiceries. Il est bien centré dans la Costa del sol également, ce qui nous a permis de visiter plusieurs belles villes autour. La communication était facile avec Bill. L’appartement est très agréable et propre par contre, les sofas et coussins du salon pourraient être rafraîchis. C’est vraiment le seul petit point à améliorer. Nous y avons séjourné 34 jours.
Mir hat es tatsächlich die Sprache verschlagen, als ich die Wohnung betreten habe. Toll eingerichtet, Top Aussicht. Alles vom Feinsten. Immer wieder gerne.

Bianca & Juan,
Thankyou for being our guest and for your kind review. The apartment is perfect for a relaxing family holiday with a private pool and the easy possibility of nearby beaches and restuarants. Hope to see you again if you visit Casares Costa in the future.
Bill & Patty McCourt
Nous avons passée 3 semaines dans ce trés bel appartement. Nous avons été trés bien acceuilli. Les propriétaires sont trés disponibles, trés sympathiques ainsi que la correspondante sur place qui est réactif au moindre souci. L'appartement est fonctionnel, il ne manque rien. Il est decoré avec beaucoup de goût.
La vue de la terrasse est juste MAGNIFIQUE. La residence posséde une belle piscine qui est trés bien entretenue.
La région est à visitée : de très belles villes et villages (Sabinilas, Casarés, Estepona...)
Bref, nous repartons avec de trés beaux souvenirs et si nous devons revenir ce sera avec grand plaisir dans cet appartement.

Jennifer/Julien,
Thank you for the positive review of our apartment in Casares Costa. Like you we find the area very relaxing and enjoy our visits there. It gives us pleasure to share our apartment with other families when not needed by us. The view from the terrace and main bedroom is indeed superb and the private pool is both very convenient and well maintained. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us and if you ever return to the area then you are very welcome to rent again from us ... bienvenidos!
Bill & Patty McCourt
Excellent séjour dans l'appartement de Bill, avec une vue exceptionnelle. Appartement très bien équipé, décoré avec soin.
La plage est à quelques minutes en voiture et 15 min à pied.
Présence de piscine avec transat est un plus.
Très bonne communication avec le propriétaire.

Hello Aziza, it is good to hear you enjoyed staying at the apartment, your positive comments are much appreciated. The area is quiet and relaxing but close enough to the main beach if needed. Shops and night life are all available in nearby Estepona or even Marbella. Thanks again.
