We stayed with Juan and Santos for 4 nights in May 2022. We took a taxi from the airport directly to the cottage (cost 25 Euro) and were met by Juan, who showed us round and provided us with maps of the area and Malaga.
The accommodation is a traditional cottage which has been lovingly restored and modernised by the hosts. It is light and airy and super clean. The rooms are actually larger than they appear on the photos and furnished in good taste. The outlay is very practical, the kitchen is well equipped with fridge freezer and dishwasher and the large double doors fold back and open out on and enclosed beautiful tiled courtyard. We had our meals in the courtyard listening to the swifts whirling overhead. There are two tables, one in the shade of the vine in the corner, the other just outside the kitchen. We slept really well, no traffic noise to speak of, very comfortable bed. The area is in fact very quiet.
The cottage is located 7 mins walk from the beach, there is a large Mercadona 5 or 6 mins round the corner, a bakery and a small general grocer's store within 200 m.

There are several buses into Malaga, the closest one being the number 3, is a couple of minutes walk from the cottage. We used the bus a lot, it's every 10 minutes, Juan provided us with a bus card (similar to the old Oyster cards)
The real assets are Juan and Santos who went out of their way to make sure we had a great holiday, nothing was too much trouble. They took us out one evening to show us traditional tapas places in the neighbourhood and we learned how to eat grilled sardines the correct way (they're finger food...). They live close by and are really kind and helpful. Juan even drove us to the airport at 3.30 in the morning. We would not hesitate to recommend staying here, very good value.
