Due to my husband’s illness, this was the first holiday in over 3 years but was the perfect break. The property is very well appointed and equipped. It was like home from home! Its spacious with a large kitchen/living area, two bedrooms and two bathrooms and the bed was super comfy. The location is amazing for getting around and visiting many places up and down the coast and the views from the balcony are stunning. The property is on a superb bus route and the fares are very cheap! There's a nice selection of restaurants and supermarkets opposite the property (across the road) which is extremely convenient for day to day bits but La Cala de Mijas is five minutes away with a fantastic beach, shops, restaurants and all the big supermarkets. We were very relaxed and happy and settled in immediately. The Team at Your Dream Home is a delight to deal with. Answered all our questions before our stay, gave us great information and very helpful and friendly. Check in and check out was easy and everything was smooth and stress free. The weather helped a lot and we loved nothing more than sitting on the balcony after a day out looking at the sea with a GnT! Would have no hesitation in recommending a visit and we will be back for sure. ##### Leigh B.

This was our second stay at this lovely holiday apartment and we’ve already booked our third visit for September – that probably says it all! The apartment itself is spacious, comfortable and has everything you could need for a relaxing break. One of our favourite features is the balcony overlooking the sea – the perfect spot to start the day with a coffee or unwind in the evening with a glass of something nice! The location is ideal, with excellent transport links nearby, making it easy to explore the beautiful coastline in both directions. We also love having our local beach and beach bar just a short stroll away. A big thank you to the team at Your Dream Home – they are always so professional, friendly and helpful. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and their attention to detail really makes a difference. We can't wait to return! If we had to offer one small piece of constructive feedback, it would be that the apartment is starting to look a little tired in places and could benefit from a few updates or a refresh here and there. That said, it certainly hasn't stopped us returning – it’s a fantastic place to stay and we will keep on coming back! ##### Leigh Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gemma 31 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Die Wohnung war super ##### Gemma Stayed 15 nights in Jan 2026 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Engel W. 23 Feb 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### El Faro verblijf Ons verblijf was goed en de plek in orde. De inrichting van dit appartement was echter wel gedateerd. Bij aanzetten waterkoker vloog de aardlek eruit! De kastjes en alle kitdelen in de badkamers waren vies. Het vinden van het sleutelkluisje in de straat in Fuengirola viel niet meer, een soort van escaperoom-opdracht. Juiste huisnummer was wel handig geweest.Wij hebben het echter wel naar ons zin gehad. ##### Engel W.
