Vacation rentals in El Peñoncillo

Garret and Jackie welcomed us into their home like we were old friends. The accommodation is pristine, with ample room in each villa to allow for privacy, or communal areas to enjoy congregating with the hosts/other guests. You can tell they are very proud of their home and are constantly working on it. They were also very patient and attentive to our boisterous 3 year old boy, which was so nice and allowed us to relax knowing someone was always watching his movements. The location is perfect if you want to explore Andalusia, and we took advantage to visit Antequera, El Torcal national park, Ronda and Cordoba to name a few. The residence is located at the base of the hills of a national park, with stunning views. The local town is quaint and has everything you need should you venture for walk. The villas are beautifully decorated in a very authentic Andalusian style. We loved this trip and Garret and Jackie were a huge factor in that. Thank you both for a wonderful experience.

I booked a beach holiday and I 100% got it! What a fantastic location, spacious apartment (for 2), and any questions are answered quickly by the host. The apartment is so complete, it even offers beach umbrellas. You can go to the beach and just quickly go ‘home’ for lunch, even though there are many affordable places around you can lunch at. The view on Eden Beach Club was entertaining. I was at the apartment just before high season, so their - pleasant - music wasn’t too loud. In high season I have been told it is louder, but they close at 9PM. I definitely recommend this super location. Just know that if you want a good supermarket (Mercadona), you can’t escape the stairs. But hey - don’t we all need a bit of workout throughout the day! 🤪

We loved our stay in Alirezas place. Everything was like it was described and as you see in the pictures. Really good place to stay or spend your holiday.

The first time we used Airbnb and hopefully they will all be like this, great accommodation (close to the beach, leisure, etc.) very well equipped, everything new and Stefan is just the BEST, super friendly, flexible and helpful, we will definitely be back.

The apartment is very comfortable and safe. It has everything you need for a pleasant stay. It is a new built with spacious private parking in the garage under the building. City centre is located on the same street level (no stairs). Access to the beach across the street (via stairs). There is an elevator in the city centre that takes you to the beach for .50 cents. Located in a residential neigbourhood but close to shops, restaurant and beach. Fran, the caretaker, was of great help and always checking if we were okay. We had a fantastic week! Thank you Fran.

Beautiful view from the terrace and bedroom + the sound of the waves. The host is very friendly, professional, helpful - quick contact and reaction in case of a problem. Under the apartment there is the best, overwheled restaurant from which there is a bit of noise. The building has an elevator. Under apartment there is a Coviran shop and 10 minutes on foot Mercadona. In winter, there is no problem with free parking. You have to be prepared that in winter season there are mostly only older tourists in the area. But yeah we had a very nice time here, its great place to relax !! :)

We had a really enjoyable stay at Villa Mariposa. The property matched the description and photos accurately, providing a comfortable base for our trip. The villa was clean, well-maintained, and practical. We particularly appreciated the large sliding doors which opened up the space and offered fantastic views. A definite highlight was having fresh lemons from the trees in the garden for our G&Ts! The amenities provided were good, and everything was in working order. The location was very convenient. It was an easy walk to local small shops for essentials, the beach, and surprisingly, a Buddhist temple which was interesting to see. The area felt safe and was relatively quiet. Ricardo a great host – responsive and helpful when needed. Communication was clear, and the check-in/out process was straightforward. Villa Mariposa is a solid choice for a stay in the area.

Antonio was a fantastic host—very communicative and helpful throughout the stay. The apartment is nicely decorated and the location is truly unbeatable—right in the heart of the city, just steps from the cathedral, restaurants, bars, and pretty much everything you’d want to explore. That said, there were a few downsides to note. There was a persistent sewage smell in the apartment, which made it a bit uncomfortable at times. We also had some trouble with mosquitoes indoors. Lastly, while the photos made the space look quite bright, in reality, it lacked natural light and felt a bit darker than expected.

A group of 7 girlfriends stayed at Ruben’s house to celebrate our special birthdays. The house was perfect. It was bright, clean and kitted out with everything we needed. The facilities were great, the pool was lovely to cool off in, in the sunshine, sunbeds were comfy and the various seating areas and bar were perfect for having an evening drink or sharing a meal. The decor was modern and well presented with lovely bathrooms and bedrooms. The location is wonderful. Ten minutes walk to the beach, some bars and supermarket. There are also some lovely local places to eat nearby. It is slightly outside Benalmadena, which meant it was quieter and more sedate, just what we were looking for. If you wanted the livelier areas, they are still within walking distance from the house. Ruben was incredibly responsive to messages, really helpful and accommodating. We couldn’t have asked for more from him. We had a fantastic few days here and would definitely return. Well worth it. Thank you Ruben.
