Apartment holiday rentals in Playa de la Carihuela

Elena was beyond amazing as a host!! From early check in, being flexible, amazing to communicate with and all around super friendly and helpful! the Airbnb itself is in million dollar location. Sea is literally 100 meters away. absolutely phenomenal! super clean super tidy very very friendly. would highly and strongly recommend.

Spacious and bright apartment, very quiet location with plenty of storage space and a well-equipped kitchen. Beach and shop 5 minutes walk. We appreciated the sea water pool which we mostly had to ourselves. We lacked oil, pepper, salt in the kitchen, which was stated in the description of the accommodation. The electric stove is quite underpowered (slow), but we used mostly the microwave. There is no light above the mirror in the bathroom, but the floor lamp from the room solved that. Check-out is supposed to be by 12, but we were told that we have to move out by 11 at the latest.

had an awesome stay here in benalmaden! elena is a great and really generous host! thanks a lot for everything (:

Great place, extremely clean and comfortable. Very practical with lots of items provided that we hadn’t even thought of. Nice pool and neighbours, and everything felt very spacious. Location is quiet and residential - slightly uphill from beach and a slight walk from main tourist areas and train station which isn’t a bad thing. Aldi is right by the apartment which was very convenient. We would definitely stay here again, hosts were great and allowed us to check out later which was very kind. A great place to stay and enjoy our holiday.

Another great stay. Everything perfect 🤩 again. Would highly recommend. Thanks for having us again Jorge Jose and Janet.🫵😎🙏👏👌👍👍✌️

Very few airbnbs that we’ve stayed in are as clean and well considered as David’s apartment. He’s a great host, super responsive and gave us loads of recommendations. It’s really nicely furnished, has an amazing sun terrace and it’s pretty peaceful. You can walk to some bars and restaurants and even the beach if you’re feeling energetic. We had a buggy, and the stairs were tricky each time but we expected that.

Mario is a great host . He was very accommodating to our needs including early arrival and late departure. The place is cozy, beautifully designed and very stylish. The sea view is amazing!! We will be back! Anna, Jerry

Excellent experience! The apartment is located in a wonderful residence with a well-kept garden and a beautiful swimming pool! We really appreciated the bar and the availability/communication of the Host Menahem, always ready to intervene to our needs during the 10 days of stay with the two small children in tow! Perfect for families, I hope to return!

The apartment is very nice, large, clean (there are small ants in the kitchen), comfortable beds, lots of light and wonderful views (mountain and sea), the spectacular terrace (eye!! beware of the dogs, because we receive the visit of a black cat every afternoon), very quiet residential area, essential to have a car, being on the side of the mountain, they are all slopes, there are people living all year, so you can go at any time and do not feel you alone and isolated. I recommend anchoring the pots on the terrace, usually strong wind and the tombs on the ground, a little risky if you have children playing or dogs. I recommend it 100%.

Loved our stay in this apartment! It had everything we needed - was clean, light, spacious with a lovely outdoor seating area. Location was great, peaceful area with restaurants & shops a short walk away and easy access to surrounding towns/resorts. Great host. Highly recommend!!

Beautiful apartment. Very clean and equipped with necessities and more! Location was perfect for our trip away. Raul and Paula great hosts, available to answer any questions with great local recommendations. Thank you both.

A great place to stay, very quiet and year round pool available. Photos were slightly different to what it was. Only down fall was the was no aircon in the bedroom, but there was in the living room so we slept on the pull out sofa. Very clean and responsive hosts, would definitely visit again. The area is tranquil and beautifully quiet and although not all aspects of the apartment was like the photos, it was nevertheless a beautiful place to stay. Thank you very much!

It was one of my shortest trips away but one of my most enjoyable. The views were amazing and the balcony area is a beautiful addition to the apartment. I spent more time outside than inside the apartment. We even had the pool all to ourselves. It was so quiet and peaceful. Sigrun, was the perfect host and I can’t wait to return. Next time for much longer!

Amazing Cozy place !!! The flat is better than the description well located well equipped and the host was very welcoming !

Perfect spot if you wantnto be in peacefull area and visit some places nearby.Everything is as on pictures.Very nice place to stay and theb host also take care of us.

Amazing place and amazing host. He responded to any messages we had very fast every time and even gave us some local recommendations. Great area surrounding the place with the beach a short walk away. The only downside is the pool was only open fri/sat/sun and the small pool wasn’t open but the beach was close enough for it to not bother us

Apartment very close to the beach, spacious dining room, terrace, pool... the only bad thing is that I don't recommend it if you go with your partner and children. The main room has little privacy

Enjoyed a great time in Benalmadena. The area is very nice, everything is quickly and easily accessible.

Great place to stay where we felt very comfortable. The roof terrace in particular is actually even more beautiful than in the pictures. We enjoyed the time and can only recommend the place. Ramón was very nice and easy to reach.

An all round fantastic experience. We booked last minute but made a mistake. Jessica accepted the booking anyway and trusted us to sort things between us. Beautiful location, very peaceful and quiet with a 10 minute walk to the train route or a 15 min walk to the marina. We explored all the destinations on the train route and enjoyed coming home after a tiring day to home from home. We had the pool to ourselves and spent hours on the roof terrace and balcony, enjoying the fabulous views. There are 2 supermarkets within 5 min walk which have everything you need. Great communication allowed us to arrange an early check in and all done with a last minute booking. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this property or return in future.

We loved our long weekend at your stunning penthouse. It had everything we needed and the location was perfect. The views were breathtaking and we made the most of the glorious weather by sitting on the terraces and enjoying the hot tub. We can’t wait to return 😃

This was our third stay In Yasmine’s apartment and it certainly won’t be our last. Yasmine is an amazing host who cannot do enough for you. The apartment is pristine and has everything that you could possibly want for a really comfortable stay. It’s in a great location within easy reach of all amenities. Thank you again Yasmine

Apartment and views are beautiful and exactly as per the pictures. We had to contact Karen a couple of times and she was really helpful and responsive. As you arrive, the apartment building is on a really busy road and we weren’t able to park so then had to circle back round and do (what felt at the time with kids and suitcases) a long walk from the car via the busy road to get to the apartment. But soon forgotten once inside. You have the most beautiful views over the sea and beach and such a lovely apartment with everything you need. We spent everyday on the beach and it felt really safe for our family. The boardwalk along the coast is lovely for a stroll, though for evenings we preferred taking the 20min drive to Mijas Pueblo. It’s a beautiful, sleepy mountain town and we found the food way better. Great stay and base with the best views for a relaxing beach holiday.

The stay was absolutely perfect! Ana kindly arranged a smooth check-in for us, even though we arrived after midnight due to our flight. The house was very clean, and both the pool and the distance to the beach were exactly as shown in the pictures. Ana was incredibly helpful and thoughtful throughout the entire process — from the arrangements and house rules to the community guidelines. On behalf of my five friends who stayed with me at Ana’s place, we shared our gratitude and thanks multiple times a day. Thank you for everything, Ana! I truly hope to return next time.
