I can't say enough wonderful things about this very special property. It's a rare jewel in the crown of Malaga! Not least the endless kindness, attention and warmth of our hosts. Noemi has always been super fast to communicate, and her delightful son Lucas was on location ready to guide us to the apartment as well as a great parking spot nearby. From the first moment he grinned at us and waved from across the street, we were made to feel incredibly welcome.

Walking into the cool air-conditioned and stunningly decorated penthouse was literally a breath of fresh air in the grip of a city heatwave. The photos on Air BnB are well taken, and accurate, but somehow the real thing is beyond anything a photo can show. Minimalist white surfaces and glass, everywhere. Elegant, spacious, chic, yet also comfortable, combining grand designs with small and tasteful touches: a wall of glass that folds back and opens to create a seamless flow to the outside terrace, a beautiful miniature chessboard and a perfectly chilled bottle of complimentary Moscato awaiting us in the fridge (my favourite, thank you!)

There's all the usual equipment and facilities one might hope to have in a holiday apartment, such as WIFI, washing and ironing facilities, towels and linens, bathrobes and slipper, coathangers, cleaning products, SKY tv, cooking equipment (although why would you need it when there are so many wonderful restaurants and tapas bars within 5 mins walk?!) Speaking of which, we had a lovely breakfast at Brunchit just a minute walk down the street, and ate both evenings in the Italian next door because my 5 year old is a fussy eater and seemed happy enough with pizza and spaghetti!

The roof terrace is spectacular, and we spent both nights up there in the dip jacuzzi, watching gorgeous sunsets over the cityscape of historic old town. My daughter had her shower up there, which amused her greatly "Mama, can we have a shower on OUR roof in england as well please?" (hehee) Note, I had to watch her like a hawk up there, because its very much a designer adult space...not the best for little explorers (or drunk adults) who like to climb or lean onto ledges! Noemi made it very clear that health and safety is a big priority up there, and we all enjoyed the experience safely, and happily.

It was a privilege to spend 2 nights in Noemi and Lucas' apartment, and it goes without saying that we would like nothing more than to return as soon as possible, relax in this EPIC space, and explore more of the beauty of Malaga (maybe without children next time!)

ps. I'm so inspired by the decor that we're transforming our breakfast diner into an all-white room with turquoise colour accents! So pretty! :)
