Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Álora

Great location. Walking distance to old town Marbella and the seafront with lots of restaurant choices close by. Had a lovely private outdoor area which we used a lot. Friendly and very helpful host!

It was literally living in a place close to heaven. It’s not only furnished with so much love, but also the attention to detail made it much more special. We were in awe upon our arrival, and found it hard to leave. We would like to recommend it to everyone, but it is so special, that we just might keep this as our best kept secret! From the moment we booked, our hosts went above and beyond to ensure our stay was flawless. They offered excellent recommendations, answered our questions with warmth and patience, and made us feel genuinely welcome. Everything is within walking distance. The way the villa is situated allows you to wake up to the gentle embrace of sunlight streaming through the windows, and ending the day with golden sunsets was pure magic. It is absolutely breathtaking. The thoughtfulness throughout made it easy to settle in and feel completely at ease, as if we were staying with dear friends. A stay so extraordinary, you’ll cherish every moment and never want to leave.

Beautiful and cosy place.

When we arrived, we were overwhelmed by the view of the valley and mountains. We very much appriciated the tranquility of the location. The terrace is large and the terraced garden is really beautiful. There are palms, olive, and fruit trees (orange and lemon). The casita is spacy for a couple, modern, well built and completely furnished. The final touch is made by the owner. Dawn and partner are very helpful if you have questions, but not at all intrusive. One small remark, if you hate narrow mountain roads you might not be pleased with the last kilometer to the casita. But you get used to it, as we did. We enjoyed our stay more than anywhere else!

7 of us stayed here for 3 nights and honestly had such an amazing time. We had lots planned so didn’t spend an excessive amount of time in the villa but the time we did was just brilliant - the pool / outdoor areas were just magic! Will be back :)

We had a fantastic stay at this wonderful house which has been thoughtfully refurbished and decorated! The house had everything we needed and everything was very well thought out. It’s a perfect place for a relaxing escape while still being in good reach of Velez-Malaga and Malaga itself by car. Our hosts were always very helpful, with excellent communication throughout. They took extra care to make sure that we were okay and had everything we needed during the Spain blackout which was very kind! We would happily come back to stay again!!

It hasn't happened yet that everything was tip-top. 👏😊 Everything is great. Owner very nice and friendly. Living as described. Everything is super clean. We'll definitely be back. 😊 Thanks so much

Had a great stay. House is perfect for couples or small families who want a peaceful getaway. As some of the reviews mention you do access the property via a gravel track (usual for the area) but dont let it put you off, drove it many times in a Citroen C3 no problem and followed a smart car on the same road one day. Just take it slow and remember the route María shows you as it saves you 10 minutes comparted to sat-nav. María and Fernando are fantastic hosts and we would be happy to stay with them again. Thanks for a lovely holiday!

We spent a very relaxing and quiet week at Cristina's in the "stable" and can only recommend a stay for those seeking peace. Cristina's directions were excellent and communication with her was also excellent. The place had everything you need - it was very cozy. Thank you Cristina. vie

It is a great house with fantastic atmosphere.

A fantastic accommodation. Perfect for couples. You are completely undisturbed and blessed with absolute privacy. The view and the cottage are beautiful and invite you to linger or spend a cozy day by the pool. The ride up the mountain is a bit tedious, but you will be well compensated by the great views. We found the location of the accommodation to be an optimal center for excursions to Ronda, Seville, Granada and Cordoba. Each destination is between 1.5 - 2.5 hours' drive (all four highly recommended). The place was very clean and very conveniently equipped. Helga is an absolutely reliable and accommodating host.

We’ve recently returned from a wonderful stay at the villa with our family. The view was absolutely stunning and created the perfect backdrop for a relaxing holiday. We were especially grateful that two high chairs and cots were set up and ready for our grandsons - such a thoughtful touch that made things a lot easier for us. The villa was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for a great stay. Pepe was incredibly helpful and very friendly throughout our visit, which made the experience even better. We can’t recommend this place highly enough. A lovely stay all round!

Villa was excellent, lovely outdoor space. Maarten very helpful, allowed early entry and late leaving when possible.

Absolutely amazing place, which really is a little paradise. We had a little trouble finding it as Google Maps did not show it correctly, but both Cristina and Juanlu helped us and we were guided there. The place is a gem and everything is in the finest condition. We enjoyed experiencing Juanlu's many beautiful works of art. We'll be happy to get back.

Cher and Jose are wonderful hosts and their property is lovely. Spent a week there, loved it and will certainly be going back in the future. Didn’t see a cloud in the sky and the pool was just perfect to dip in and out of to stay cool. Walked to the Marina every night for food and now starting our diets ready for our next trip! 🤣 Thanks again Cher - lovely seeing you again and see you again soon. 😎

A gem in the middle of the hills surrounded by nature. The location of the house is simply wonderful. You have a 360-degree panoramic view. The pool is flat at the front and 2 meters deep at the back so you can jump in easily. The area offers many seating and lounging areas to linger. The house is charmingly built in the Spanish style and very clean. There is nothing missing, whether electric orange juicer, coffee machine, etc. Everything necessary is available. Spices, aluminum foil, shampoo, shower gel, garbage bags, toilet paper, towels, everything was available in sufficient quantity, we didn't have to buy anything. We felt completely comfortable. The town of Colin is 5 km away. There you will find a variety of restaurants and supermarkets, which we also appreciated. Jesus is a very nice, courteous landlord who is immediately available for any problems or questions and provides remedies. Thank Jesus for such a nice time in your house.

Excellent accommodation and location. We loved the terrace so much and spent most of our time there! Communication from Scarlett was fantastic throughout. Definitely recommend a car, it’s a really nice drive through the mountains. The apartment it’s ~35 mins from Malaga airport and ~20 mins to Marbella. Thanks again Scarlett & Lee for the hospitality!

Rosa and Seth are charming and very attentive and made us feel at home. The cabin is beautiful, surrounded by trees, it seems like you are in a hidden forest. It's a place that you can see in every detail is made with a lot of love. It makes you feel comfortable. During our stay, they gave us a tour of the farm, explaining the beautiful permaculture project they are creating.

This unit offers a spectacular view, meticulously clean kitchen & bathroom, well stocked kitchen for preparing meals, comfortable couch & mattress, quality linens, strong internet, and newer TVs. Do not hesitate to book this unit!

It was lovely if there was sun beds around the pool we would have stayed by the pool a lot more and if you don’t have a car the food shops are about a mile away everything else was fab loved it 👍🏼

I would just like to say this place is amazing and juan is an amazing guy. He let us stay because we had a late flight and never asked us for a pen anymore. This has got to be by far the best place. I've stayed there on all my trips around Europe staying at Airbnb's. juan was so helpful given us a device where to eat where to go for Days out his place was so clean fresh and just felt like Home I will be definitely coming back to stay here and I would strongly recommend anyone who's thinking in the coming to this part of Spain to stay at this place my wife and kids after 10 days, don't want to go home all I would like to say to juan yes thank you so much and I loved staying at your place. See you soon.😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Alfredo and Lydia welcomed us very nicely. Communication was very easy. We will be happy to spend our holidays in this accommodation again.

We had the best week here. Private, and spacious. Sebastian was very responsive and if we had any questions, we would simply message him and he got straight back to us. The pool was great and the kids swam day and night. Would highly recommend

It’s been a fantastic family vacation, and the place delivered on all that was promised. A wonderfully decorated property, sleek yet stylish with a cozy ambient and enormous feel good factor. The house itself is super chill as Casa Calma should be;)…. the garden and pool are lovely add ons making it a perfect spot for a family get away. Dirk has been very helpful and responsive and his restaurant recommendations are spot on, we have had some amazing diners, from posh beach clubs to a cozy restaurant in the mountains, each place unique and worth a small drive. Overall a very satisfying stay that was enjoyed by the whole family. Till next time ;)
