Overview
Description
This is one of the most special properties in Andalucia, abundant charm & comfort with a high level of maintenance & breathtaking views. Many guests say this rustic cottage is close to heaven on earth.Please see our our website for videos.
Al Ladino is a 2 bedroom rustic casita carefully restored by some of the finest craftsmen in Andalucia. Both bedrooms are 'en suite'. It's good for up to four people.
The lounge, dining, kitchen & bedrooms enjoy unbroken sea views of the coastline from perhaps the best vantage point in the area. There is a private pool and much privacy but just 5 minutes by car from town. The nearest beach is 1km away.
The property has a rustic andaluz feel thanks to the local stone & antique wood, it has charm, warm energy, subtle comforts & space to relax. Both double bedrooms have ensuites. The central open plan salon of some 60 square metres (~650 sq ft) is a space with a magnificent high ceiling separated into a kitchen area, dining room & lounge. There is a dishwasher, toaster, kettle, coffee machine, cooking hob & small oven in the kitchen. Footsteps away, burrowed out of the stone hillside is a cave, santised and converted into a laundry room.
For the winter months, the open plan salon has a 360 degree estufa/chimenea spreading warmth to virtually the whole property. There are panoramic views of the bay around Nerja and the Sierra Almijara mountains with the lighthouse in the fishing village of La Herradura some 20km away clearly visible from the lounge & patios.
The nearest Spanish neighbour is 300 metres away – Antonio, a local dentist. You may see Paco grazing his goats every afternoon after his siesta. He always has 20 minutes to stop and chat. Then there’s the small stout man on his modest moped who tends his little orchard every day – avocados and mangos are his speciality.
And that’s about it, there’s usually little noise to speak of unless there’s a fiesta in the town or some other unexpected celebration, in which case you’ll see the night sky light up with fireworks!
Oh yes, don’t be surprised to see Gustavo, the gardener creep in quietly to do his twice weekly maintenance and then there’s Jose, pool cleaner and odd job man for the last decade and a half. Fortunately, the team share our passion for the rustic cottage and the farmhouse nearby.

By Lindsay on 11-Aug-2018Lindsay wrote on 8 August 2018: We have just returned from a wonderful 3 week stay at Al Ladino. The Villa is breathtaking. As you enter the views are stunning, the garden is beautifully landscaped and the interior is carefully designed to feel spacious and contemporary whilst maintaining the traditional feel. The pool was very much enjoyed particularly by our two children! The location gives you really easy access to Nerja at the same time as feeling very private and quiet. Danny was on hand to help with every need and no request was too much. His local helpers were also extremely courteous and hard working. This property alongside El Monte Bajo are extremely well maintained with regular visits made during our stay to sweep patios, clean the pool, trim hedges etc. The home grown food products were amazing and we made the most of handpicked salad leaves, onions and peppers. We would not hesitate to recommend / visit Al Ladino or El Monte Bajo again. There is simply nothing of this standard in this location that I can find. A real gem!
