From start to finish, it was the perfect family holiday experience. The property was stunning and the attention to detail was faultless. We have already recommended this property to two separate friends.
Finally, David and Lou could not have been more helpful and approachable.
Just a brilliant family holiday!!
The home was very beautiful. There were also lots of special places in the yard to relax (e.g., fire pit, pool, serenity garden...). The pictures of the property are an accurate representation of the home. There were lots of restaurants within shopping distance. Louise was always available to respond to any issues, not that there were many. Loved our stay.
We had a wonderful stay in this villa. Lou was fantastic from the very first interaction and throughout, nothing was too much trouble. Likewise with Rosa. This is a very special luxury villa in the beautiful Pueblo de Benalmadena served by many great places to eat within a short walk. Huge thanks to Lou and Rosa.
Such a wonderful place to stay. The Villa definitely lives up to the billing if you've seen the pictures. Lovely peaceful location, you can sit in the evenings listening to the wildlife, looking out over the pool to the coast and Med beyond whilst enjoying a drink/BBQ. I shall miss that view! You are also only 10 minutes walk from a large number of Restaurants, many of which are superb. David and Louise are perfect hosts, always on hand to help with anything. It makes for a wonderful holiday - you won't be disappointed!
We have just returned home after the most amazing week staying at this gorgeous villa in Benalmadena. It was the perfect rental and I can not think of anything our hosts hadn’t already thought of or catered for. The interior is very elegant and comfortable and the exterior was beautiful with lots of different areas to hang out in. The pool is fabulous and we spent much of our week either in the pool or lying on the pool sun loungers. Nothing quite prepares you for the how beautiful the view is as we were absolutely blown away when we first walked through the front door. We absolutely loved our week there and can highly recommend.
As a family of 5, we have just returned from a week in this Villa and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The villa really is top drawer. Everything you could wish for is available including a to die for pool area. The location in Benalmadena Pueblo is stunning. Only 5 mins walk to the peaceful traditional village which is full of character and Spanish charm including some lovely restaurants.
But also very easy to get down to the coast and the centre of the resort including the superb marina. Here there is something for everyone from Ice cream parlours to private boat trips. All accessible within 15 minutes in an Uber.
The hosts Louise and David are so friendly and approachable. They were full of advice and quick to offer tips for restaurants/places to go etc. From the minute we booked, Louise was in constant contact.
Anyone seriously considering a trip to Benalmadena but looking to be located in a more peaceful location with the hustle and bustle only 15 mins away then this place is perfect. We are already considering booking again. Highly recommended !!

Dear William. Thank you for your review, and thank you for being such wonderful guests. Kindest wishes, Louise
Louise and David’s house is so amazing with the great views and eclectic works of art all over the house and garden. Absolutely outstanding amenities and comfortable places to relax. 10 out of 10 for communication between me and the owners as well as Anne the guest greeter. A place of total relaxation and bliss. Thank you and we hope to return again shortly.

About the host
Hosted by Ms Louise Bowser
David and Louise Jackson were born in England and share their passion for Spain and all the wonderful things it has to offer, the weather, the safety, the night life, the Mediterranean diet and the fabulous wines They are both fluent in Spanish having lived in Spain, where they met, for many years. They spend part of their year at Viñas Viejas and a large amount of time travelling around the world. They enjoy greeting their guests to Viñas Viejas and showing them the special features and explaining all the exciting places to visit. They chose Benalmadena as their home for the amazing views it has to offer, its tranquillity, being able to walk to the village in 4 mins,its lovely marina and its proximity to the airport. The Jacksons look forward to meeting you soon.
Why they chose this property
They chose Benalmadena as their home for the amazing views it has to offer, its tranquillity, safety, being able to walk to the village in 4 mins,its lovely marina and its proximity to the airport.
What makes this property unique
The unique benefits of Viñas Viejas is the total privacy and tranquillity the large 4250m2 plot has to offer, its privileged location just a stroll to the village and half way between the city of Malaga and Marbella. They travel a lot, so having the airport just a 15 minute drive away was very important.
