Home to the world-famous Alhambra Palace, Granada is steeped in legend as the last Moorish stronghold in Western Europe. Its streets whisper tales of sultans and poets, of faith and conquest — a city where every stone seems to hold a secret.
Granada is the darkly romantic cousin of sunny Seville: a city of contrasts, alive with energy and mystery. Lose yourself in the maze of Albayzín’s narrow, winding streets, or wander through the Realejo quarter, where elegant old houses and hidden gardens meet bold street art and modern spirit.
An exceptional stay with exceptional hosts. The reality is even better than the photos, the perfect setting to rest and rejuvenate. We will be back soon.
We had a beautiful and relaxing stay at this casa.The view was awesome, Graham and Lynn were amazing hosts and communication was easy. This was the best AirBNB of our Spain-Vacation.We would highly recommend this place!
This is just the most amazing place to get away from it all. The views are astonishing and having the use of such a huge pool overlooking the mountains an enormous bonus. It’s like a setting from a film! I love that the bedroom and lounge area are separate so cooking and eating are away from sleeping. I cannot overstate the peacefulness of this environment, it’s like food for the soul with not a tourist in sight and I can’t wait to stay again.
If you’re looking for a TRUE get away with no tourists, no noise or light pollution, just peace and tranquility and the most astounding views then this is the place. Beautifully renovated little casita with separate sleeping quarters and the use of an almost Olympic sized pool makes this a true reviving holiday … and the hosts are so kind and lovely. I didn’t want to come home!
Wonderful views, genuinely Spanish location where you’d be made at home the minute you get there. Poolside is WOW where I’d go and swim whatever the weather. You can see for miles, fantastic wildlife, especially bird song
and dark skies for any star watchers.
If you are looking for silence and peace in the soul then this is a good place.
Fantastic place, and what a view! Everything was fresh and clean. Very quiet stay. Graham and Lynn were a very nice host couple.
A truly peaceful & secluded location, yet within easy drive of nearby towns/villages with cafes & bars and stunning scenery. The property had everything we needed and was in good order. Our host and hostess (Graham & Lynn) were very friendly and helpful . We would highly recommend this as an excellent value for money part of your holiday.
We had a wonderful time in the casita. It is a wonderful place to relax, with a splendid view over the valley at sunset and sunrise. Graham and Lynn are very friendly, helpful and punctual hosts. The region has a potential for walking. We liked it so much that we finally didn’t go to Granada or Cordoba as we had in mind. Yes…and we said to ourselves … what a wonderful time.
We had a nice stay in this super accommodation. The host is immediately ready for you if there are questions. In addition, they are very friendly and socially strong. The pool is wonderfully private and good to stay. The view is phenomenal and soothing. We can recommend this place to everyone!
The beds were very comfortable, everything is quality. This is the perfect place to relax, the scenery is beautiful with a pool overlooking the mountains. In brief it was paradise; we will come again. No big shops nearby but a small supermarkets well supplied with the necessary.
Like everyone says, the sunset was incredible and we loved our stay. The beds were super comfortable and the setting is unmatched for relaxation.
Well I can not really find words, this place is just perfect. I spent my 40th birthday here and I could not have chosen more wisely 🙂
If you’re looking to completely switch off and relax, this outstanding country cottage is a must. The highlights of our trip was watching the breathtaking sunsets every night and how it evolves into a galaxy of night stars.
The pool area is completely private and has stunning views of the olive trees as far as the eye can see. WiFi speed is spot on. Very friendly locals who greeted us every day.Highly recommend this villa. Thanks Graham & Lynn for being fabulous hosts. You’ve created a slice of paradise that one can only dream of.
The casita is a true paradise among the olive trees. Amazing sunset. Graham and his wife were very welcoming and were able to give us good addresses. No disappointment. I recommend x1000 Thanks again to them!
We had a wonderful stay at the casita. Relaxing at the pool and gazing at the stars at night were the best moments of our road trip. If you want a break and just want to relax for a day, this is THE place! We highly highly recommend!
