Barbara is a welcoming host. She presented a very clean house with a lot of thought going into all the amenities needed for a large home. Lots of towels, beach towels and chairs, doubling up on kettles, toasters etc for the two kitchens, and an abundance of crockery glasses etc. The house is comfortable as are the beds, and it is all topped off by two great terraces. El Palo is the real Spain, an old fishing village but not short of restaurants and easy bus ride to the vibrant and very interesting city of Malaga. Recommend.
