Beautiful getaway in southern Spain

We had a wonderful time at this lovely house in Mijas. It was exactly as described in the listing. Gordon and Adrienne were easy to communicate with and were gracious when we arrived late in the evening due to car problems. Mijas is a small village but has lots of good restaurants. We travelled all over the area. Would definitely recommend having a car.

Amazing stay

Fantastic well equipped property with so many quirky and individual touches. It had everything we needed & more and we spent many happy hours enjoying the stunning views whilst we ate on the generously sized patio area and relaxed in tie hot tub. The property is in the perfect spot to explore beautiful Mijas and we can’t wait to return.

Never disappoints

This is the 4th time staying at this property and it is as charming as ever. A really homely feel has been created by the owners and the location is excellent; within easy walking distance from the pueblo. Cleanliness first rate. Hot tub wonderful. Have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this property for a relaxing get away.

Beautiful village house

Casita Carmela lived up to our expectations, it’s beautiful. Peaceful location but a 5 minute walk to some lovely restaurants & bars. The casita itself was perfect, very tasteful decor with everything you need for your stay. Hosts were very welcoming & on hand if you needed them. The outdoor space was bigger than we expected with the most amazing views! Nice hot tub and outdoor shower to cool off in too. This was our first time in Mijas Pueblo but definitely won’t be our last! It’s a lovely friendly village

Casita Carmela perfect in every way

Casita Carmela is the perfect find. The owners Gordon and Adrienne have put a lot of thought and love into this unique villa. All the areas are beautifully decorated to the highest standard along with the white goods and furnishings. The location is fantastic 5 minutes walk into the town which has many amazing restaurants and plenty of shops sellng handmade jewellery and art. The outside space is a real haven and you will find yourself spending most of your time here. It is very spacious and the hottub is a welcoming bonus. The views from this terrace are amazing. We enjoyed our stay so much that we would have liked to return next year. Unfortunately

Paradise in Mijas Pueblo

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful casita. Unfortunately it was only available for 5 nights and we could easily have stayed longer. The property is perfect in every way and the terrace and hot tub were the icing on the cake. The traditional furnishings and beautiful art work made it feel so very homely. We really relaxed during our stay and spent many hours just looking at the spectacular views. The booking process was easy and the hosts responded very quickly to any queries that we may have had. We will definitely return to this property and beautiful Mijas, we loved it! Thank you Gordon and Adrienne

A little Gem and Perfect for two

Situated in a quiet residential area of Mijas Pueblo with a short walk to shops and restaurants. Perfect and manageable property size for 2 and good space on the Patio in case of visitors. A little chilly when we were there but the aircon heaters were adequate and the bathroom area has underfloor heating. so evenings/nights were cosy. No immediate parking but free areas nearby which we found ok but may be more difficult in high season. All in all a great find

Mijas Pueblo was everything we hoped it would be. Loved it.

First, I don't think you'll find a better host. Wow! Gordon was fantastic with communication, checking in during the week as well to make sure we were happy. Very impressed. We also LOVED Mijas Pueblo where this unit is. Absolutely beautiful and exactly what we were looking for. We rented a car and drove to Marbella, Granada, Ronda, Caminito del Ray, and other spots. It was ideal for us. We also took full advantage of the hot tub since the evenings were much cooler in April. The view is fantastic from the hot tub. We were able to find parking about 5 minutes from the property each day, which was not a problem at all. It was free street parking. We noticed before booking that this property had so many 5 star reviews and we understand why. We loved it! Thanks Gordon and Adriana!

Amazing, totally amazing!!

Second time staying in this beautiful villa, uncertain if visiting for a second time would be any less amazing as the first time but couldn't be more wrong. The villa inside and out is a piece of heaven, the view is fabulous and the 5 minute stroll into the centre of Mijas Pueblo is lovely. You will not go wrong booking this villa and 30 minutes in a taxi from the airport is great. I fly from East Midlands and my travel time door to door is about 7 hours even living an hour away from the airport. Great place to visit and amazing place to stay, there is no possible way you will not enjoy yourself. Reluctant in posting this review as it is letting more and more people know how good this place is as we will be returning next year and i am sure for many years to come. Book up now as its getting full guys!!!

Hidden gem

Everything about this holiday was exceptional, great communication with owners, nothing was to much trouble, The casa is a nice 10 minute stroll from the centre of Mijas, 100 yards or so up the street towards nino’s is a little shop next to the hardware store, (not shown on google maps) Nino’s is great little tapas/ coffee in the morning great prices, The casa itself is outstanding everything you need, the shower is amazing, lovely decor and a pleasant patio to while the hours away. Cheap bus ride into feungola €1.55 one way. Little bus (222) from nino’s, or a more regular one from the town hall terminus. Malaga is only 1.5 hrs on the bus €2.40 yes that’s correct €2.40 Enjoy your stay we sure did…thank you for the use of your wonderful casa

Exquisite property in a beautiful setting

Having recently returned from an 8 night stay at Casita Carmela I have already booked up for 2 separate weeks in 2019 - can’t wait to return. Adrienne & Gordon’s property is immaculately presented with the sort of care & detail that sets it apart from other rentals. It’s ideally located in the centre of Mijas Pueblo with spectacular, far reaching views of the sea. The village itself has plenty to offer, with touristy shops, food & deli shopping and a good variety of restaurants & bars all within a stroll from the house. I spent my days lazing on the terrace and cooling off in the “Cold Tub” - the temperature was way too hot, this trip, to crank up the temperature but in cooler weather it’s going to be lovely to enjoy a tipple in the hot jacuzzi as the sun goes down. All in all, both Adrienne & Gordon are great hosts and made me feel very at home and I’m looking forward to seeing them again next year - Jeannie Kynaston

This casita is beautiful with stunning views amazing hosts and everything you need for a stay in Mijas Pueblo. The weather was pretty poor during our December stay and my husband was ill so we spent quite abit of time in the casita but was very warm and comfortable. The hosts were at the end of the phone when we had a medical emergency and ended up at A And E and the lovely Lynn next door literally held my hand what a blessing. It isnt directly in the heart of village but once you get to know your bearings it isnt far from the hub and there is a lovely authentic spanish bar and little grocers and baker's nearby. The hot tub was great too. The hosts organised transfers to Malaga for us at the end of our trip which was a great help though it is possible to travel here by public transport (train from airport then bus or taxi to village - though abit of a walk to the main bus stop with cases). Englisg tv too. We wouldnt hesitate to recommend this accommodation or to stay here again when we come to Mijas Pueblo

Paradise in Mijas

The casita in the quaint village of Mijas, one of the famed White Villages of Andulucia, is absolutely perfect in every way. For starters, the view is marvelous-- look out on the Mediterranean Sea from your mountainside terrace, hear the church bells and braying donkeys and enjoy the sunrise while taking a dip in the hot tub. The house is a 1 br/1ba home decorated in a charming boho Moroccan style that is so romantic without being fussy. The casita comes with fully equipped everything-- kitchen, amazingly huge bath, hot tub, countless cable channels, even spa robes. Hosts Adrianne and Gordon are so accommodating yet give you total privacy. They are charming hosts indeed. While Mijas is a small village, be aware that tourists do invade the town center at midday. You can still snag an outside table for your tapas and wine, however, as by midafternoon they're long gone. And the house is a ten minute walk from the center so you always have your solitude at the casita. This home is a true gem! Thank you for letting us stay at your home.

About the host

Host profile image
We are a retired couple from the UK and have been regular visitors to Mijas for over 20 years. We loved Mijas Pueblo so much we have bought this little jewel of a property which we want others to enjoy also.

Why they chose this property

Having worked as the Director of Photography on the US TV show House Hunters International for over seven years I had both seen and filmed in hundreds of properties and this little property stole our hearts so much so we had to buy it.

What makes this property unique

Casita Carmella is situated in the idea part of Mijas Pueblo. It's situated down a very quite lane however you are only 5 mins walk to the very heart of the village and no car is needed to enjoy all that Mijas Pueblo and the surrounding hillsides have to offer.
