Excellent stay, nice area owner very accommodating and helpful

We are a family of 7, with 4 adults and 3 children aged 5,5 and 4. We stayed at Pete's apartment from 16th - 23rd July after booking well in advance. On arrival we found the apartment to be very clean and spacious. Every amenity you could need was catered for, including satellite tv, free Wi-Fi, toys for the kids, books, dvd's and plenty other small things that make a positive difference. Once we were settled, we made our way to the main pool which was literally 30 seconds from our front door. There are 3 pools that are all very well maintained and all get lots of sun throughout the day. There is a Supermarket and a couple of bars and a restaurant close by but it is a fairly steep walk back up the hill especially if you have little ones. One thing I probably would recommend is hiring a car. We didn't and in hindsight we should have. Whilst Cabopino is a lovely little area, if you want to explore much then you need a car. Even the beach is a fair walk. Overall we had a fantastic holiday and the owner Pete couldn't have been more helpful.

From Malaga airport it was about a 30 minute journey by car to the apartment. The apartment is on the Amatista Reserve which is well served by supermarkets, restaurants and bars. The bus stop to Marbella central is at the bottom on the main road so therefore if you are walking and using the public transport which is good value, this is where you find the bus stops to the main routes in along the Mediterranean Highway. The bus prices were about 2.00 euros each way. A taxi is about 20.00 to Marbella. The apartment was roomy having 3 sofas in the lounge 2 bathrooms one with bath which was great but both had showers which were lovely and hot, and a kitchen which had everything we needed. There is a large balcony which gets the sun throughout the day which was great as in March the wind can still be a little cold so the shelter of the balcony meant we could still get some sun and be sheltered. The pool is large and is lovely, I did go for a little swim, but it was very cold!!! The fact that we had BBC TV and wifi which in this electronic age was great as it meant that as the weather was a little cold we could come home, have a take away and watch a movie if we wanted to. The pool was a short distance away from the apartment and it was very easy to get to so no worries about bringing sun loungers down from the apartment. The nearest beach is the one at Cabapino, which is a 20 min walk, there are restaurants and bars there and a small harbour. A taxi there is about 5 euros and if you want a day at the beach I would suggest if you are not driving, you book a taxi to take you down as it is a walk with beach items. It is a lovely beach, clean and reasonably quiet. I will be definitely booking again and taking the grand children with me as there is plenty for them to do, I loved it there and will be hoping to go back again soon. Thanks Pete! (The owner)

Beautiful apartment in a lovely quiet area, everything you need for the perfect holiday! Swimming pools are spotless and the grounds are well looked after. Nice quiet nights in really comfortable beds! Would recommend this holiday to anyone...book with no worries, cant compliment the whole place enough!

We are very happy we have chosen this villa, there was absolutely everything in the flat what we needed, kitchen fully equipped, everything was working, villa was very clean and bright. I would definitely recommend it.

We found the apartment very clean and tidy, as well as spacious enough for four. Pool area was lovely, and the complex was clean, tidy and very quiet. Although the beach was a bit of a walk, the location was fairly central, and it was easy to get to the other resorts - Mijas, Fuengerola & Marbella - by bus. All in all we felt the week we spent there was thoroughly enjoyable and the whole holiday was great value for money.

We returned from an excellent holiday which was attributed by the information that was supplied by the owner the accommodation and the weather. We were given concise directions to the accommodation arriving at a well maintained complex clean and spacious apartment supplied with all the amenities we use on a daily basis at home. An accommodation we would be happy to return to. We were provided with local information on where to eat shop relax or party which was invaluable as were on a short break. We found the location suited us perfectly we enjoyed a quiet meal and drinks and we were also able to enjoy livelier bars in the area and the easily accessible Marbella & Banus. On a whole a fab holiday was had by all...!

The appartment was excellent, and owner and contact in Spain most friendly and helpful. The site was well kept and attractive. Out of season it was quite and peaceful. Only small drawback to the holiday was the terrain. Lovely to look at, but plenty of steep hills resulting in many hill-starts for our driver. However the place was ideally situated for exploring the whole of the Costa del Sol. A great holiday.

Plesant enough, everything you need for rainy days in, Sky Tv, dvds, books. Very clean, sufficient kitchen items, towels etc. Owners customer service skills 100%, very friendly and helpful. Only downside was location for us since we did not have a car, which we think is a must for staying here. Apart from weather we enjoyed our stay at the apartment.

The apartment is well equiped with reserved parking. The pool area is just across the way. You need to take your own sunbeds up to the pool but at least this ensures you always get one. One word of warning or interest, depending on your lifestyle, the nearest beach is mostly naturist, this also happens in the sand dunes, so in my humble opinion this area is not suitable for families. However the beach ajacent to the port of Cobopino (10 min drive or 20 min walk) is fine, with sheltered water for swimming. There are a small number of bars, some with entertainment, and restaurants close by, which are a little more expensive that in the more popular holiday areas, but are only 5 min walking distance.
