Cottage vacation rentals in El Sexmo

Fantastic location, very peaceful and private. Lovely house, we really enjoyed our stay and will be back ! Thanks

Peaceful stay for a week. Beautiful elevated location with panoramic views. Rocabella restaurant at the bottom of the track was great if you dont feel like venturing out far, with a varied menu from light bites to main dishes with burgers, steaks and fish.. My advice would would be to grab some basic groceries from a supermarket prior to going up to the house i.e coffee, bread eggs , drinks etc. I travelled with my ederly mother and the accomodation was suitable for our needs as she is unable to manage steps. There is one twin room downstairs with a bathroom and walk in shower which is next to the kitchen , lounge and outside patio so easy access for her with limited mobility. its would not be suitable for a wheelchair however. Upstairs there is a double bedroom with doors opening onto a patio with table and chairs, perfect for your morning coffee to relish the sun rise and sunsets, and also affording privacy if travelling with others in your group. I throughly enjoyed my stay. 😊

At Casa Lopez, we stayed for 1.5 months as 5 adults, a child, and a dog. Occasionally, we were up to 10 people, but space was never an issue. The villa is beautiful with stunning views of the mountains and surroundings. The mountain road to the villa adds charm, and the place feels comfortable and safe—even accessible with a Fiat 500. The villa is more spacious than the photos suggest. Rafael, the host, showed us all the amenities: pool, Jacuzzi, and game room—all in perfect order. We also worked from the villa using the internet without any issues. The area is picturesque, close to beaches, mountains, and towns, with plenty to do. The hosts are very kind and helpful, even recommending a mechanic when needed. After 1.5 months, we still felt their warmth and friendliness. Leaving Casa Lopez was emotional for us. So, I recommend the villa for vacations, as well as a place where after work you can open some wine and jump into the pool. I wish everyone an equally wonderful stay.

Communication with the hostess was excellent even before arrival. The welcome was warm - the hostess and her partner were extremely helpful and just particularly lovely people. I felt at home there. At the same time, the small house in which you are accommodated with the beautiful garden offers total privacy. The orange trees were allowed to be "plundered" - fresh orange juice every morning. The view of the mountains is magnificent. A wonderful place to chill and be with yourself. In the evening, I heard the bells of the goats from the nearby hills. In addition, some dogs that could almost howl like wolves. I thought it was nice. You can also hear airplanes - but I soon didn't notice that anymore, because I felt so comfortable and the location is also fantastic for that. The place is authentic - you're really in Spain. I hope I can go back there soon. Absolute recommendation.

We had an excellent stay. The house is very well equipped and clean.

We had a really great time in Madre Tierra. Rafa welcomed us and was really helpful for any request we had. The house is comfy, calm and with a great view, close to nice mountain paths. Totally recommended. Thanks again Rafa!

We had a wonderful weekend in Monte Naturivo! The accommodation is surrounded by beautiful nature and is the perfect place to unwind. Everything was absolutely clean and very well maintained – you can tell how much love is put into every detail here. We were particularly enthusiastic about the great pool, the relaxing hammam and the beautiful yoga room – ideal for switching off and feeling good. The hostess was incredibly friendly and warm, we felt welcome from the first moment. Monte Naturivo is really a special place that we highly recommend to everyone.

We stayed here for 4 weeks (family of 3) and it was the most wonderful holiday! So peaceful and quiet, well equipped house and a lovely pool. The beds are really comfortable and the aircon in the bedrooms was brilliant. Cómpeta is a beautiful town and worth a visit. Cannot recommend this place highly enough!

We had a wonderful week at casa Fuentezuelas. The house and it’s surroundings were even more beautiful than the pictures showed. Breathtaking view and very peaceful. The house was very clean and charming and had everything we needed.

Country house in rural setting, cozy and intimate. Ideal for children, pets and very peaceful. The place is located in the Sierra de las Nieves in the countryside. It's a 1900 country house, renovated and with current comforts. The host (Belen), was very close to solving a problem for us. Very kind and attentive. If you are looking to be quiet and disconnect, I recommend it.

The stay at Angel's "Las Lavaderas" was excellent. Due to the quiet and private atmosphere, we recovered well. A perfect place to relax. The house is equipped with everything you need. Communication with Angel worked perfectly, friendly and always promptly.

José was an amazing host, always responsive and the villa was unbelievable. The views were incredible and everything matched the pictures so perfectly but was even more spacious than we thought. Would come back again and recommend to anyone 100%

In one GREAT WORD😊 Very welcoming hosts, very flexible in terms of schedules , beautiful pool also especially so passionate of Le Réal. We also retained the cleanliness of the place, nickel 👌🏼 Very unfortunate that we came for one night because it's really a cottage where we want to stay 😁

Comfortable house in a beautiful spot very private and spotlessly clean. Good base for exploring and walking. Was the wrong time of year for us to use the pool but the grounds and outside space were really nice too. Only thing would be to have information in the house about how everything worked, what there was to do in the area where to put the rubbish, house rules etc. Overall a great stay.

We had a fabulous few days with the family. The hosts are very attentive to taking care of us, and attending to any needs. The house is full of many details, which made it a real vacation home, (pool toys, hygiene products in the bathrooms, kitchen equipment, protection against insects, candles, and a long list of good things). Clean, nicely decorated, warm. They greeted us with village bread and local oil. Definitely excellent.

Very cozy stay. In the middle of nature to disconnect from everything. Close to Antequera and with a spectacular setting. Antonio, the host, is charming and very attentive. The house is very clean and with all the amenities. We had a very good weekend. Totally recommended. We will be back.

A little slice of heaven. It truly was perfection, from the moment we booked to the moment we left, we felt it was a home away from home. Bruno and Gert were the perfect hosts, we stayed in the studio near the pool, and it was fully equipped with everything we could need or want. It truly was a fantastic experience staying here and we will 100% be back. I couldn’t finish this review without a special mention to the 4 doggies, who made this stay extra special for us and made us want to spend more time in the villa to spend time with the doggies. This really was a fantastic week. See you soon Bruno and Gert. Kate and Robbie xx

We had a fantastic time staying in this beautiful cottage, nestled high in Almayate. The outdoor patio area was exactly what we wanted and all the different pockets of outdoor space felt like we could have a different experience and viewpoint each night, from the BBQ area, to sitting looking over the greenery to the sea. For anyone looking for a relaxing time, but an easy commute to local towns and Malaga itself, this is the one for you!

Juan was very friendly, helpful and responsive upon arrival. The cottage is situated in very beautiful surroundings, it is also very private to yourself, you’d struggle to not having a relaxing time there, would be somewhere I’d look forward to returning to and highly recommend!

We stayed at Carmen's villa as a family with 2 children. The location was very quiet with great views. Carmen was very helpful, super friendly and always available. The villa was very well equipped and fully corresponded to our idea. We didn't miss anything. Pool towels and pool toys were also available for us. Our excursions in the surroundings to Málaga, Marbella, Nerja, the Caminito del Rey (book early!), Ronda were worthwhile (travel times 30 min to 1:20 h). We can recommend the restaurant at Lauro Golf Resort. We were extremely satisfied with our week at Carmen's villa and can recommend it.

nice house, raft surroundings

This is a beautiful, unique, peaceful spot, with a wonderful history, and an excellent restaurant at your doorstep.

Just arrived back from a wonderful week at Steph and Terry's home. The weather was amazing so we took full advantage of the beautiful pool in the most fabulous location. The property is set amongst the mountains and whilst remote it's not too far from the main road for visiting the surrounding area. For myself and my partner it ticked all the boxes as we love nature, watching the wildlife and the quiet of the mountains where we could relax away from our busy lives. Steph and Terry were always there to answer any questions and give recommendations. The Al In Carhire company recommended by them was extremely easy and value for money. Thank you to Steph and Terry for making our holiday special.

We loved the views and peacefulness but felt safe having someone English next door. The welcome pack was amazing and appreciated as we stayed put for 3 days due to heatwave and didn't have to worry about shopping.
