Elevated 4 Bedroom Home - Stunning Sea Views, Communal Pool And Tennis, Sleeps 8

This generously-sized and semi-detached holiday home in a secure gated community is ideally suited to families and small groups and sleeps 8 persons in comfort, space and style.

Elegantly furnished in an eclectic mix of antique and modern, the home has three levels comprising 3 double bedrooms (master with marble ensuite); a 4th bedroom/media room perfectly suited to teenagers (with 2 large single beds and chill-out lounge area); a separate bathroom servicing the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms; a guest toilet and powder room adjacent to the large living area; a separate tapas/coffee/wine bar area, formal dining facilities; a reading area with comfy reading lounge; a fully-equipped gourmet kitchen; and laundry facilities.

The home has two sun-drenched terraces overlooking the sea. The main terrace has extendible awnings for shade in peak summer and is perfect for alfresco dining, with direct access to the kitchen.

On-street parking is readily available, with guaranteed spaces on the driveway for two cars.
Complimentary, high-speed internet WiFi is included for the duration of your stay.


Elevated Location, Stunning Views, Local Amenities: Located high on the headland overlooking La Herredura (the Horseshoe) Bay and adjacent to the renowned Cerro Gordo National Park, your holiday rental home is positioned at the very heart of the Costa Tropical in Granada Province. From the two large private terraces you will enjoy unsurpassed views of the Mediterranean Sea and the surrounding coastal mountain range of Cerro Gordo - perfect positioning for a cocktail at sunset or a lazy alfresco breakfast in the sun.

At the base of the hill lies the historic village of La Herradura, which is a favourite destination for Spanish and international holidaymakers seeking an unspoilt haven for seasonal beach and water sports activities, hiking trails, horse riding, recreation facilities, and stunning natural attractions, complemented by a range of speciality and convenience shops, cafés, chic restaurants, and lively bars and nightclubs.

Fresh local produce and seafood markets, cultural outlets and pure Andalucian style are beckoning!

Holiday Activities Galore- Sun/Sand/Golf/Boating: Your holiday destination will be everything that you hoped for, with a large communal pool and tennis courts and the extensive nature trails of the Cerro Gordo National Park all just a short 100m walk from your front door.

Discover private seaside coves and beautiful beaches with reserved dining and relaxation facilities along the rugged coastline of the magnificently unspoilt Costa Tropical. Enjoy pristine diving and snorkelling locations in the Marine Natural Park; world-class charter boating and marina facilities at the nearby Marina del Este (5km drive from La Herredura); or subterranean caves nearby the resort town of Nerja (10km).

Crave the hustle and bustle of larger urban towns? It's a pleasant drive to Almunecar (6km) and along the coast road through Salobrena (22km) onto Motril (33km). Wish to venture further afield? Enjoy the thermal waters of Alhama de Granada (84km), the majesty of Alhambra Palace in Granada (84km) or go winter skiing in the Sierra Nevada (87km).

Getting to La Herredura to Start your Holiday: The vast majority of inbound tourists to the Costa del Sol and Costa Tropical regions land at Ruiz Picasso Airport near Malaga (83km from La Herredura). Airport shuttle coaches deliver passengers on a high-frequency timetable to Malaga city centre and the central bus terminal, for a very nominal fee. Inexpensive local coaches run to regular daily timetables from Malaga central bus terminal to La Herredura and return.

Once you arrive in La Herredura, it's a short 5-10 minute taxi ride to the house. Taxis are freely available in La Herredura and reasonably priced.

If you are driving your own vehicle, travel along the A-7 Motorway and take exit 305 to La Herredura. Total travel time from the Malaga Airport is about one hour

For those first-minute needs when you arrive, there is a small supermarket on the beach-front to the western end of La Herredura, where you can purchase everything you might need. Many other speciality shops, cafés and eateries are located along the beach promenade.

Family holiday
Had a lovely week in La Herradura - which was a great location to explore the Andalusian coast. The house was great for our two families, with the air conditioning providing a welcome respite from the heat. The balcony was a lovely space to eat together and admire the view, whilst the kids loved the communal pool at the end of the road. The house was a little further out of the town than we had imagined and our car was essential to go anywhere. Both Greg and lynne (the owners) and Scott (their representative who met us in La Herradura) where helpful and made the renting process easy. Thank you

Buon rapporto prezzo/prestazioni casa spaziosa con vista spettacolare sul golfo
Per concedere la quinta stella ci sarebbe voluto un tavolo da 8 in terrazza per poter mangiare tutti insieme e qualche sistemata alle serrature dei bagni.

Falta de aire acondicionado….
El principal problema que hemos tenido, es la falta de aire acondicionado. Había dos aparatos estropeados, uno de ellos en la habitación principal y con los que había no acondicionaban la vivienda. Se avisó a la propiedad y no nos dio una solución. El wifi tampoco fue hasta el tercer día, después de avisar. No está acondicionado para 8 personas ya que una de las habitaciones dobles no reúne las condiciones, olía mucho a humedad, y el aire que había portátil hacía muchísimo ruido. En cuanto a las vistas, ubicación y la playa muy bien aunque necesitas el coche para todo.

El alojamiento, bien. Todo cuidado y no necesitabas de nada. El único pero es que necesitas necesariamente un coche para desplazarte

Casa amplia y cómoda con una terraza fantástica
La casa es más bonita de lo que parece en las fotos. El salón es amplio, cómodo y luminoso. Tiene también un pequeño rincón con una mesa de comedor y 4 sillas. La cocina no es muy grande pero tiene todo lo necesario y una ventana con vistas al mar. (El frigorífico no enfría mucho y el lavavajillas no funcionaba durante nuestra estancia. Lo iban a arreglar pronto). El menaje es bastante completo y está en muy buen estado. Tres de los dormitorios tienen vistas al mar y uno de ellos, una terraza fantástica. El de la planta baja no tiene aire acondicionado y la tele no funciona. Es más básico, pero es muy espacioso también. Sin duda, lo mejor de la casa es la terraza, que no se aprecia bien en las fotos. Tiene una mesa grande con sillas y una barbacoa de gas. Las vistas de la bahía son preciosas, de día y de noche. Ahí hemos disfrutado muy buenos momentos tomando un vino y contemplando el mar. El inconveniente de la casa es que está lejos de la playa, no se puede ir andando. Es una zona tranquila y aconsejable para familias con niños, o adultos que no tengan planes de subir y bajar mucho a la playa. Nosotros, con 2 adolescentes, tuvimos que hacer el recorrido más veces de las que nos habría gustado. Pero en resumen, ¡la estancia ha sido muy agradable! Muchas gracias Greg and Lynn!
