★Sustainability-We have recently invested in a solar powered hot water tank which holds 300 litres of hot water, (with a backup boiler for those few cloudy days) so you will never run out of hot water.
You will find reusable dish cloths & scourers for your pots and pans and instead of providing plastic bottles of mineral water you will find a lovely glass bottle of tap water waiting for you in the fridge when you arrive.
You will find lunch boxes & refillable bottles for to take drinks to the beach with you so there is no need to buy products in single use plastic wrapping or bottles. We have also installed pump dispensers of shampoo, conditioner and shower gel to the avoid the use of single use plastics.
Our housekeepers use eco-friendly cleaning products and the new washing machine uses only the minimum amount of water necessary. Our aircon is monitored so that it cannot be accidentally left on when you open the door or go out for the day.
You will find shopping bags and a wheel along crate to take to the shops so that you don’t have to buy plastic bags when you go shopping and we encourage our guests to sort and recycle rubbish. You will find beach toys, inflatables and a body board for your children so you don’t have to buy a new bucket and spade each time you stay. This avoids having plastic items abandoned on the beach.

★ Mi Jardin is perfect if you want to relax and get away from it all and yet all that the Costa del Sol has to offer is easily accessible.

★Urgent information regarding the community pool at Mi Jardin★
We have been informed today (Monday 1st April 2024) that the Junta de Andalucia (Government of The Junta de Andalusia have forbidden the opening of private and community pools, due to the ongoing drought restrictions.
This situation is totally out of our control and may well change at short notice.
Please remember that the owners cannot accept any liability for compensation, or cancellation requests due to the pool closure, should you choose to make a reservation to stay at Casa Christabel y Casa Annabel after 1st April 2024.
Thank you for your patience and understanding due to this difficult situation and we look forward to welcoming you to Casa Christabel y Casa Annabel
