The house is very much as described in the advert. A very good size with plenty of space in the living area and the bedrooms. Good location almost on the sea front with excellent access to buses into Malaga centre or a pleasant walk into the town. Even more pleasant to walk along the sea front in the opposite direction towards El Palo, with plenty of bars and restaurants to stop at.
We were a group of family & friends, all adults, for a week's stay which included a weekend and New Year. If you stay there, you need to expect some traffic noise and a fair bit of noise from the bar next door, especially at the weekend and, of course, New Year's eve. Some rooms were effected more than others, so you may want to pick bedrooms carefully.
We cooked for all of us on 4 nights and found the facilities adequate. Plenty of plates etc but the size and quality of the cooker meant we needed to be imaginative in what we cooked and how we did it. The large table in the kitchen area was great for us for a communal meal, although it would difficult to seat more than 12 around it.
A word of warning. Try and manage without a car if you can. 2 of the families hired cars and had severe problems finding parking spaces nearby, even spending more than an hour on the Friday we arrived trying to find spaces. Apparently, weekends are the worst but it never seemed to be easy. We used public transport to travel and the bus and train services in Malaga make it fairly straightforward to get to many other towns, eg Antequera, Cordoba, Nerja or Fuengirola.
Overall, Carlos's place served us well and we thoroughly enjoyed our week there.
