Best First holiday
The villa was amazing and Samantha and Frederick were very helpful. They set up the stair gates ready for our arrival. The whole villa is very child friendly, with a gate to the pool and gate to the little shaded play area. They even had a little cupboard with toys for my 2 and 4 year old boys to play with. It was super clean and tidy when we arrived. And we loved cooking in the outdoor kitchen. It was also super quiet in the mountains and the view was spectacular. Such a great first family holiday 😍 thank you. Lisa and Simon (stayed in first week of may)

Fabulous
High up in the Malaga hills is this true delight. Views to die for, a huge pool, outdoor kitchen and the rest..... The owners were super helpful and informative and made the booking process seemless. Without shooting myself in the foot in case we cant get booked back in next year this villa is just amazing and with 2 bars/restaurants within 10 mins walk whats not to like.

Amazing place to stay
If you are looking for relaxing holiday in a very well equipped villa then this is the place to stay. It had everything you could possibly want especially for children. We took our 15 month grandson and he had a great time. It was so secure for him and we never had to worry about the pool or him escaping! Hosts communications were excellent with all the information and directions we needed. Cannot recommend enough.

A piece of heaven
Previous reviews did not exaggerate how idillic villa Amarilla is. It definitely is a very difficult task to explain in words. Good value for money doesn’t describe it, Brilliant, attentive and caring hosts falls short of a decent description. Do get a 4x4 as the last 15 seconds of your journey do definitely demand it. And Comares, well, it is right out of a south Spanish fairytale, the locals, the food, the scenery… I am definitely coming back, with friends this time, too greedy to want it all to myself. Too beautiful not to share.

The perfect villa
The villa is everything as described and more, Samantha has thought of everything! All you need is yourself and clothes. A car for exploring is definitely recommended (the road up to the villa is just a while other experience in its self) I wouldnt hesitate to book again

Perfect cottage for children and family groups
I could not believe how well equipped for children this cottage was. It just had everything you needed and made packing so much easier as we barely needed to take anything! The outside area was just incredible and it was nice to be able to just let the kids play outside and relax knowing they were safe. The communication from the hosts was brilliant nothing was too much trouble. The only thing I would say was that it was a bit more remote than we were expecting, perfect for a complete break from people though. The weather sadly wasn't that kind to us at first (great place for watching thunderstorms though) which meant we couldn't just let the kids roam outside and play and we had to leave the villa to find things to keep them entertained and most places for kids are on average an hour or more drive away down very windy mountain roads. So a lot of time was spent in the car for us although our kids sleep as soon as we go in the car so not a huge issue. But worth knowing if you are wanting to go off places rather than stay at the villa for the whole week. Also do not use Google maps when driving it sends you down some awful 'roads', I would recommend using Waze app. Must better routes provided and more accurate! All in all a very relaxing holiday and thank you so much Samantha and Fred.

Fabulous family week in stunning surroundings
The outside space was incredible, the villa was clean and comfortable. The local village of Comares is well worth a visit. It's the only place we went because everyone had everything they needed or wanted at the villa. Thankyou to Samantha and Frederick.
