We had a lovely stay at La Colina. A tidy room at the top of the house, with amazing views out to sea from the private terrace.
The house is located up a very steep hill, which was tough in the heat, but we didn’t go out much during the day, as we were lucky enough to have the pool to ourselves for the duration of our stay, as there were no other guests.
The pool itself is quite large, cleaned often and is lovely and cool when you get too hot!
The house is in a neighbourhood, so you might be forgiven for thinking everything (like the beach and the city) is miles away, but a quick 15-20 minute walk down the hill, you’re at the beach and promenade with all
It’s lovely restaurants and bars. (My advice would be to spend €4 on a taxi back up the hill!)
5 minutes away is the bus stop, and it’s only 15 minutes on the bus (which is air con’d) to the Historic centre of Malaga.
Overall, we had a great relaxing stay, and really enjoyed our time there.
A couple of points to mention, Happy the dog is truly delightful, but she does like to hang around the pool with you, so if you’re not a dog lover… be warned…
There have been a couple of changes since the photos were taken, but these are for the better in my opinion, such as 2 private sun loungers on the terrace, instead of the day bed in the photos.
We never used the bar, as we weren’t clear whether it was just for the family, or for guests to use also, but we just took our own drinks and snacks to the pool, so it was no problem. (Aldi is about 10 min walk up the road).
Thank you Sonia for a lovely holiday!
