Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
With a playground, swimming pool, and sun-kissed garden, this home is perfect for families. Although the living area is on the smaller side, there's more than enough space to relax outdoors. The covered barbecue terrace has alfresco dining written all over it, while the poolside lounge chairs are just the spot for an afternoon siesta. Inside, the third bedroom has a bunk bed with a single and a double, making it the ideal crash pad for kids. Location-wise, you'll be removed from the hustle and bustle here, but Cártama's shops and eateries are within easy driving distance. Further afield, Málaga and its sandy beaches are 24 kilometres away.

Home truths
The third bedroom has a bunk bed that can accommodate three guests. The bottom bunk is a double bed, with a single above. We think it's best for children.
The swimming pool slide is only for kids 10 years or older. The pool is also unfenced, so little ones will need to be supervised at all times.
Your host can provide a free cot and high chair on request.
The traditional decor here might not be to everyone's taste. It feels a little dated in parts, especially the bathroom and living area.
The wood oven next to the barbecue isn't for guest use. However, you're still welcome to use the grill.
Due to the remote location, we suggest hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There are four on-site parking spaces here.
