Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Playa de la Carihuela

We all had a lovely stay at the apartment and miss being there. The property was ideally located with breathtaking views and peaceful. Marco was very friendly and helpful. It was an excellent stay and we would love to go back again.

We booked Penelope’s beautiful villa a year ago, in celebration of Grandad’s big birthday. It was to be the first time we had all had a holiday together, with ages ranging from 70 to 2 years old, and young ones flying in from London and Sweden. The villa and pool were perfect in every way - generously and thoughtfully equipped, from the kitchen utensils to the toys, and the fantastic range of pool and beach games, etc. The furnishings are of a high standard and the villa spotlessly clean, with endless hot water, comfortable beds and other modern conveniences. We were two minutes’ walk from the beach and the main front, with a choice of restaurants and bars if desired. Penelope was close by and on hand to deal with any questions - she was so kind and welcoming throughout our stay. In short, we cannot recommend this accommodation highly enough and cannot thank Penelope enough for her hospitality.

Sara’s place, was amazing, everything was totally prestine. On arrival Ana met us and she was just lovely. Ana showed us around the apartment and made it clear to us how everything worked. Ana also informed us if we had any problems don’t hesitate to contact her. Sara response to all our questions was quick and efficient. What a beautiful peaceful apartment, we enjoyed the apartment so much. Can’t wait to return. Thanks for an amazing stay. 😊

"We had a great stay! The place was very clean, cozy and decorated with a lot of love for detail. Particularly noteworthy is, for example, the quiet location / the comfortable bed / the great view / the hospitality. The check-in was straightforward, and you felt welcome right away. We would come back anytime and would recommend this place. Thank you for the time!”

What a wonderful time we had at Casueña. Alicia and Jorge were so welcoming, helpful, friendly, and fun. They met us at the villa and showed us everything we needed to know, and then were always on hand for anything else we needed. The villa was so well equiped, including basic food, tea, coffee, and fruit to get us going. Also, on the first morning, Alicia and Jorge gave us a basket of eggs from their own chickens! We loved the beautiful furniture, artwork and ornaments which all added to Casueña's charm. Since the weather was hot we spent most of our time in the stunning garden and lovely pool. Beautiful mature plants, shrubs and trees made the garden feel magical, as did the many birds who visited including a familly of swallows. A short trip (about 2 miles) down to the village of Santa Rosalía provided a good supermarket (open every day), cafes, and restaurants. Thank you Alicia and Jorge - you are very special people and we will definitely be back to visit you and Casueña.

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

My host Ana went above and beyond her duties as a host when our transport back to the airport fell short she stepped in and got us their what more could one ask The villa was amazing and Ana was always willing to give advice if needed. All I can say is she was first class 👍

Lovely green garden to relax in, a private pool and all that for a great price. Silvia is a wonderful, lovely host. Definetly would recommend.

It couldn't be better. Nastya is very helpful with everything, from recommendations to reservations. Amazing apartment. I'll definitely be back!

Very nice and cute apartment with great view and big comfortable bed. Also really close to the beach and in a quiet neighborhood.

Elena is a true super host! She made sure we are always having a good time. The apartment was also awesome! It is equipped with all the things you would need for a relaxed stay. We spent a lot of time in the apartment itself, it was such a great view.

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. 😎

Myriam’s apartment was just perfect for our needs. The location is perfect, close to the beach and restaurants and also just a mile walk from Benalmadena. Myriam was extremely helpful and responsive and nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely be back!

Modern 2 bedroom apartment with large balcony around 2 sides. Good layout, with a view of the sea. Just back from beach in a quiet road.

Beautiful, comfortable, pristine apartment in an amazing location with buses to nearby resorts, supermarkets and restaurants within a 1min walk and the beach is a 5mins walk. away. Ana Maria is a lovely truly amazing host who kept in contact and was very flexible with check in times. Items such as toilet paper, washing up liquid, washing powder and softener, shower gel, kitchen roll (the list is very long) was all supplied and unexpected and extra items such as milk, fruit juice, bread, cheese etc was a really lovely touch and very welcomed after our journey. The beds are very comfortable and the bed linen and towels are of a high standard. Thank you so much Ana Maria we had a lovely one months stay in your home! It is our first time in an air B&B and it was a really great experience and one we will repeat although I feel you have given us very high expectations for our next holiday! Thanks again! X

Had the most loveliest stay at Rafael’s apartment. Place was kitted out with everything you may needed and lots of recommendations for things to do. Would definitely came back again!

Enjoyed a great time in Benalmadena. The area is very nice, everything is quickly and easily accessible.

We felt at home at Elena's! Excellent accommodation in a quiet place, absolutely suited us. Thank you. We'd love to come back!

We have just spent 10 days in this lovely apartment. When we arrived check in was so easy. The apartment was so cosy and spotless clean. The location was so central located on the border between Benalmadena and Torremolinos giving you easy access to both resorts. It had a fantastic view of the marina and the sea. From the day we booked communication with Rosa was fantastic and we were given early entry to the apartment as we had an early flight. I would rate this place very highly and hope to return in the future.

What a fantastic apartment! We had a superb holiday and Ronnay was the most pro-active host with lots of really helpful text messages ahead of our arrival that made gettine to the front door realyy easy. The appartment is lovely and really quite peacful due to it's location. Sunrise is a joy in this apartment and the view and the balcony area are brilliant. We will 100% be coming back to Ronnay's apartment on our next holiday to Torremolinos. We had a lucky chance to be able to meet Ronnay and his parner while we were there and what fabulous hosts they are in person too. TOP MARKS go to this apartment !

This apartment is an absolute gem of a place. Really close to some fantastic restaurants and bars, but tucked away, so you can still get a good night's sleep. The apartments decor is superb and was a refreshing change from some of the usual places I've stayed at. I'd highly recommend this place

Reme is an excellent host, and her apartment is exactly what the pictures show- Modern and clean with a fantastic view! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and will return again.

I was there in June with a friend and we where extremely satisfied with Marina Y Jesùs. The host was really friendly, he suggested to us a lot of good places to visit or where to relax. The appartment was really good, there was all the things present in the description. I suggest you this opportunity ;)

This was my second time staying in this building. I enjoy the views and the proximity to the restaurants and beaches. It’s very walkable from the train station. The only thing that was a bit complicated for us was even though we were able to leave our bags with the building as we arrived early there was the issue that you need a swipe card that is given on check in to get to the beach or to get back into the building which we didn’t know so we got caught between the building and the beach with no way in or out as it wasn’t communicated to us that we needed to stay within the pool area. The gardener, who was quite rude to me when he approached my family then he had to let us out after residents complained that we looked like we shouldn’t be there and we had to walk 15 minutes back around to the front entrance to get back inside. So just knowing that up front would have been helpful.
