We love the earthy, boho vibe of this Nerja home, but the real selling point is definitely the outside space. There are different alfresco spots to choose from, including a tiled pool terrace, a dining area, and a suntrap balcony shared between the first-floor bedrooms. You’ll definitely be able to work on your tan here. The nearest sandy beach is 800 metres away, so if you tire of the swimming pool you don’t have to travel far for a dip.

Home truths:
*There’s free parking at this home
*For those with reduced mobility, there’s a ground-floor en-suite bedroom at this home – the rest of the bedrooms are upstairs
*Your host can provide a complimentary cot and high chair – this must be requested at the time of booking, and you’ll need to bring your own cot linen
*The pool is unfenced so young children may need to be supervised outside
