Beautiful well equipped house with amazing views down to the sea, lovely pool area and gardens, peaceful and private. I’be been visiting this area for the past fifteen years and this is probably one of the nicest houses I’ve stayed in. The house is very easy to find close to the town of Frigiliana, Alfonso and Carmen are perfect hosts Just a phone call away if you have any questions. I’m looking forward to return soon,

What an amazing place!

Carmen and Alfonso are really nice people (thank you both!) and the villa is without a doubt, the best holiday home my wife and I have stayed in. Spotlessly clean and really well equipped. A great location only a stones throw from Frigiliana. Close enough to the coast for easy access but far enough away from the hustle and bustle to be really peaceful. We thought we would use the house as a base to explore Andalusia from but it’s such a great place that we spent most of our time there. We will be back!

Amazing Stay

We had such a lovely stay at this property - when we arrived we were stunned at how beautiful the home and location are. Communication for check-in was seamless and flexible, we communicated with Alejandro via Whatsapp and this made things nice and easy. The property itself was so beautiful, nice and clean and well equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Both bedrooms and living room had a/c which was a real luxury. The pool area was incredible and a real peaceful haven nestled into the amazing landscape. Really would recommend a stay here!

Lovely stay at Fuenta Santa

Lovely secluded property, not overlooked and very peaceful. We enjoyed our stay here and very much liked the various outdoor areas which provided shade if needed. Beautiful well kept gardens with various fruit trees, cactus and pines. The cottage itself had a lovely homely feel, very clean and comfortable and well situated near the village of Frigiliana. Great communication with Alfonso and Carmen and check in went very smoothly. All in all, a great stay and we would recommend this property to others.

Lovely cottage just above Frigiliana

We very much enjoyed our stay in Carmen’s beautiful cottage. It is very well-equipped and hence extensive outdoors. It is a bit of a walk to the village - certainly on the way back (up) but the views are gorgeous. Carmen and Alfonso are wonderful hosts and easy to communicate with. Muchas gracias!

A wonderfull stay

North of Frigiliana runs the MA5105. Along it are several houses with a view of the Mediterranean Sea. One of these houses is Fuente Santa. A lovely house, fully equipped, with a fantastic view, a covered terrace and below that a terrace by the pool where you can sit in the sun until after 5 pm in December/January. The house has wifi, a television (which we did not use), a wood stove and every room has air conditioning, which both heats and cools.The house is beautifully sheltered, in an area where there is a lot to do. Walking in the mountains to El Fuerte is recommended, for example; the village of Frigiliana is beautiful (touristy, that is). From Frigiliana you can do various walks: to Nerja, through the riverbed, to El Acebuchal and further to Cómpeta. The landlords are extremely hospitable and approachable. In short, a fantastic place and worth it.

A little piece of paradise

As soon as we arrived we knew it was going to be special. The view is stunning and the surrounding land/garden is kept beautifully. The house is perfect for a couple or a family of 4. Everything was clean and the beds were super comfortable which is rare! The kitchen is well equipped as is the laundry. The pool and outdoor kitchen are fantastic. All done so well. The location was perfect for us.We are hoping to stay again next year! Thank you Carmen and Alfonso for making our stay so wonderful!

Peaceful Oasis

What a wonderful stay. Even better than the pictures. Carmen has made a wonderful oasis , perfect in every way. There are so many places to sit and take in the breath taking scenery. The villa itself just feels so relaxed and very tastefully decorated. It's was hard to drag ourselves away and found ourselves eating on one the many terraces for dinner or lunch most days !!! The swimming pool area was beautifully surrounded by plants and vines and pine trees and lovely a secluded. Great sundowner spot!. Can't say enough thanks to Carmen for creating such a wonderful place. I feel truly rested and refreshed after such a wonderful stay

Lovely villa, convenient location, amazing views

The villa was easy to find, with communication via WhatsApp before we set off and on the day we arrived. The villa is in a quiet valley, not remote or isolated, very near Frigiliana and a short drive to Nerja and the most fabulous beaches. The villa itself was perfect. Very clean, well equipped, comfortable beds and lots of fluffy towels. There were even fresh flowers in the bedroom. The kitchen is well equipped with plates, glasses and cooking utensils etc and the outdoor kitchen and bbq were great, there is a fridge which made days by the pool wonderful as we had cold drinks at our fingertips! We made good use of the pool as it was very hot when we were there. The air con in the bedrooms was very very welcome. It made the nights cool and easy to sleep. We spent many evenings on the terrace listening to the cicadas, gazing down the valley to the Med. You can even see the cruise ships away on the horizon. The villa is so pretty, the trees give great shade and a lovely tropical feel to the setting. It was a perfect holiday and we would love to return.

Prettiest house in paradise location!

The house Fuente Santa is just perfect if you are looking for a pretty and superb place, located in the pittoresque hills close to Frigiliana. The house is compact but facilitates you with everything you need. And it has much more to offer: its interior is spot on and really tastefully decorated, its has an amazing private pool with Bbq area and on top of that treats you with stunning view! To have your breakfast on the terrace overlooking the peaceful valley and the sea behind Nerja was just a priceless experience! We felt as if we simply landed in paradise! Both Carmen and Alfonso were great in communication and gave us so many tips and advise where to go and get around. While we stayed during Christmas and New Year, Carmen even left us some festive decoration. Also very kindly left us a bottle of Cava and the 12 grapes each, so we could really follow the spanish new years tradition at 12 o'clock. We will definately return to Fuenta Santa!

Great secluded Villa, convenient location, with peaceful views

Villa Fuenta Santa was easy to find as you pass through the town of Frigiliana, just a further 5 minutes drive as we made our way up the bends of the hillside. Great communication via WhatsApp with Alfonso before we set off and throughout our stay. Facilities are perfect for two or a small family. Beautifully appointed throughout, equipped and maintained both inside and out. Very clean, comfortable beds. Fragrant jasmine flowers were a lovely touch in the bedroom left by Carmen, also some fresh grapes from the vines by the pool left in the fridge as a nice welcome. The outdoor kitchen and bbq was also good, with a handy fridge for cold drinks and snacks ready instead of walking back up to the Villa. We spent many evenings on the main terrace with a view looking down the valley to the Med. Beautiful and well kept gardens with various fruit (fig) trees, cactus and pines giving great shade and a lovely tropical feel to the setting. The Villa is very secluded up on the hill in a quiet valley, you can take a 5 minute drive back down into the town or walk down, however its a good 25 minute walk to the edge of town or 35/40 minutes to the ‘Plaza de las Tres Culturas’ and then you have a nice selection of bars/restaurants. A footpath has been constructed along the main road near the Villa making it safer to wander down. However the walk back up the hill is a little tasking, douable, but in the day/heat I’d avoid. We managed to walk down on a few evenings, there are local taxis but

Haus und Umgebung herrlich!

Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt in dem Haus von Carmen und Alfonso. Wir haben das Haus super sauber vorgefunden, hier wird wert aufs Detail gelegt. Das Haus und der große Garten sind mit viel Liebe eingerichtet bzw. gestaltet. Alles ist super gepflegt, also richtig zum Wohlfühlen. Viel Zeit haben wir auf der großen überdachten Terrasse verbracht. Hier schien Ende Oktober morgens ab ca. 09.30 Uhr die Sonne, so dass wir schon morgens draußen frühstücken konnten. Sonne auf dem Grundstück mit den vielen verschiedenen tollen Sitzgelegenheit ist von morgens bis abends. Bei schlechterem Wetter kann man es sich im Haus mit dem Kamin auch sehr gemütlich machen. Die Aussicht vom Haus ist grandios! Nach Ausflügen haben wir uns immer wieder gefreut, zum Haus zurückzukehren. Die direkte Umgebung bietet sich für Ausflüge zum Baden zu verschiedenen Badebuchten oder auch zum Wandern an. Die Kommunikation mit Carmen und Alfonso verlief reibungslos. Wir können das Haus uneingeschränkt weiter empfehlen und kommen gerne wieder!

A hidden gem

A beautiful cortijo/Villa just above the village of Frigiliana. Views of the sea and coast from the well maintained and landscaped gardens with numerous places to sit and relax and take in the views and the smell of the surrounding pine trees. We have stayed in numerous villas over the past twenty years in the Frigiliana area and this is one of the best.
