Guest comments: 'I wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful time in La Herradura. The apt. was perfect; quite comfortable for us and so conveniently located. I loved the beautiful wood and the marble floors. We were very fortunate to have experienced the Patron Saint (San Jose?) festival during the time we were there. The townspeople and crowds were delightful. Food was cheap and so delicious. I love the town and our trip could not have been better.' Ann H, Vernon Hills, Illinois, USA.

Perfect location. A home from home.

located a few steps from the beach, bars and restaurants. The property was as described and the owners responded promptly to all queries, a seamless experience. Local agents arrange access and look after any problems. There was a problem with the washing machine during our stay and they sorted it out without any hassle. La Herradura was perfect, the beach beautiful and food delicious, especially the fresh fish served in the chiringuitos. We will definitely be returning.

Las Flores apartment

My wife and I stayed 10 nights at Las Flores in February 2020. Firstly the instructions given by Dorothy were very comprehensive so finding our way there and obtaining the keys were a simple matter. The underground parking was also easy to find (if a little difficult for us to access using the press button key fob - we had to ask assistance twice). The location in relation to the beach was brilliant. We were so comfortable there that we were sad to leave. There are plenty of restaurants, shops and bakeries within easy and level walking distance. We used the excellent bus service on a number of occasions. We would highly recommend this accommodation.

Spacious and well equipped apartment in La Herradura

We had a great holiday in Dorothy and John's apartment. It was well located (near the beach, with a side sea-view from the balcony) in La Herradura which is a lovely little town with a horseshoe shaped bay. It was very clean and so well-equipped it had everything you could possibly need for a holiday. It also had a very useful secure underground parking space for your hire car.

Family stay in La Herrudura

We stayed in the apartment as a family of 5 with 3 teenage daughters. We found the apartment to be everything which we had hoped for and more. It makes an extremely comfortable base to stay in and we barely left the town in the two weeks of our stay. As a consequence, the holiday was very relaxing. We spent most of our time on the beach which is so conveniently close to the apartment - we enjoyed the fact that it was so close that we could pop back 'home' for lunch easily in between swims. The weather was beautiful throughout our stay and the sea was crystal clear. We loved eating out in the town and found the bar below the apartment exceptionally good - fantastic food and service at really reasonable prices. We would unreservedly recommend this as a place to stay. A wonderful holiday destination and a beautiful apartment.

Charming home and great location. Ideal for a long stay.

A very good location for town, beach and exploring adjacent resorts. Granada is easily accessed with a fast motorway link. The apartment is well furnished with the added bonuses of a sunny morning balcony and all day sunshine on the rooftop terrace. Locally there is an abundance of restaurants, bars and roving music venues Attached to beach bars. We hope to return

Good pad for a holiday

Good clean accommodation; close to the beach with a tight-angle sea-view from the balcony. (With the windows open at night, you can hear the waves breaking on the beach) It is comfortable rather than luxurious but it is extremely comfortable and very easy to live in, and lacks for nothing. Good value for the price.

Excellent!

Had a great stay In Dorothy and Johns apartment. The place is ideally situated in the centre of the village with sea view from the balcony and secure underground parking. Everything you could ever need in life appeared to be in one drawer or cupboard or another, very well equipped throughout! The fact that there was also heating apart from cooling air con was very handy as the weather was not over kind during our trip. I think the only slight problem was that the TV was difficult to watch a film on as it never made it to the end before crashing. I would definitely rent this place again as it's such a good apartment in a central location, which is not only a lovely village, but a great base for exploring in all directions! Nigel.

Very nice and spacious directly to the beach

We enjoyed staying at John and Dorothy’s nice apartment for the 3rd time. The apartment is in the heart of La Herradura - near beach, shopping and restaurants. The apartment had a great size for us. We also loved using our time at the balcony all day long. Furthermore was the rooftop very spacious and sunny with a fantastic view to the entire bay. The apartment was well equipped. The communication with the hosts was excellent. Family Huusmann from Denmark

Beautifully furnished large apartment with side sea views, centrally situated.

We were over the moon with this apartment which is the best furnished and equipped we have stayed in over many years of holidaying abroad. Around 25 yds from the beach it is in a secure, mainly residential, block with a lift. We went as a couple, stayed for a month and could happily have stayed longer. It is a real home from home. There was no problem in having family over to stay for a few days. The apartment is very spacious and the layout is good with 2 bath/ shower rooms, a separate kitchen, and the bedrooms on their own arm of the corridor away from the lounge. It has side sea views from the spacious balcony which opens off the living room.There is also a large roof terrace. Furnishings are in Spanish style and are good quality. There is everything you could wish for in terms of kitchen equipment including kettle, toaster, coffee maker and a washing machine in a separate laundry area. There is ample cutlery and crockery. The living room has books, DVD's, CD's, games, magazines, English TV, and helpful information on the area left by the owners. Hairdryer and non slip bath mats in the bath/ shower rooms and bed linen, towels and tea towels are provided and changed weekly. La Herradura is a lovely laid back village/ town in a horseshoe shaped bay. If you are wanting a nice family resort this may well be the place for you.There are bars, restaurants, shops and supermarkets nearby and the main square is just around the corner. The taxi rank is at the bottom of the street. Along the seafront there is a large childrens playground and a daily fresh food market. There are also outdoor gyms on the beach. In addition there is a dive centre and windsurfing but these were closed when we were there in February. The bus network is reliable and cheap. Getting around from here is easy, even without a car, although obviously a car would enable you to do more. Having said that we went to Malaga and Granada on the bus as well as places in between. e.g. Nerja 15 mins, Almunecar 10 mins, Salobrena 25 mins. Booking this apartment was easy and John and Dorothy were really helpful. There is a local agent who speaks fluent English just 100yds from the apartment who was also very helpful. She even came and changed a failed light bulb herself within 2 hrs of us reporting it. Usually we don't go to the same place more than once but we would happily return here, and probably will. Overall a great holiday in a super apartment.

Fabulous week in beautiful apartment in Andalucia

We had a fabulous week in Dorothy and John's beautiful apartment, and would definitely recommend it. Everything was clear and well-organised right from the start. We felt at home straight away thanks to the welcome guide which explained how everything worked in the apartment (wifi, washing machine, tv, etc.), as well as giving lots of tips about where to eat and what to do. The apartment is very well-equipped, spotlessly clean and just across the road from the beach. We will certainly miss our leisurely breakfasts on the balcony! La Herradura is a beautiful seaside resort with a real mix of friendly locals and foreign holidaymakers. There is a wide range of tapas bars and restaurants for a variety of tastes and budgets. It's in a great location for sightseeing; we alternated lazy days on the beach with trips to Granada / La Alhambra (1 hour away), Cordoba (2.5 hours), Motril (30 mins) and Almuñecar (10 mins). All in all, we had a perfect holiday and can't wait to go again.

Perfect Apartment in a Great Location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at John & Dorothy's lovely apartment. It is very spacious, spotlessly clean and has a lovely character/feel about it. The balcony is in a perfect spot to get the sun for most of the day and with under a minutes walk to the beach and area with all of the lovely restaurants it was in a perfect location. Picking up and dropping off the keys was very easy and it was great to have parking underneath the apartment so there was no worry about finding somewhere to park the car. La Herradura is a lovely town and we hope to return again soon. A trip to Granada and The Alhambra Palace was only about an hour away and so it was nice to have an overnight visit there within easy reach. Many thanks John & Dorothy - hope to be back again in the near future!

Excellent apartment - perfect location

We have visited the Nerja/La Herradura area of Spain many times. The coastal and inland scenery is stunning and the local people very friendly. La Herradura itself is still very Spanish. Out of season it is peaceful and uncrowded. The apartment more than met our needs and expectations. It is Spanish in style, spacious, extremely well equipped (including free wi-fi) and very clean. It is situated just across the road from the large beach and is within two or three minutes walking distance of the local market, bakery, small supermarkets and post office. The larger towns of Nerja and Almuñécar are withun 15-20 minutes driving distance - both are delightful. There are smaller, more remote beaches situated between La Herradura and Nerja. There is a variety of excellent and good value restaurants/tapas bars in La Herradura - both along the seafront and in the centre of the village - and all within walking distance. The difficulty lies in choosing which one to visit! Dorothy and John were helpful and efficient during the booking process and subsequently. There is a local agent nearby should any problems arise. We will certainly be returning to the apartment when we next visit La Herradura.

Coming to an apartment out of season in a place one does not know is always a challenge. This property exceeded our expectations. It had everything that we needed for a long stay and was very well equipped and maintained. It felt like a private home rather than a letting and was ideally located, 2 minutes from the beach and seafront, with many restaurants and bars open for business. This is one of La Herradura's pleasures off season, no tourists, no crowds, friendly restauranteurs and shopkeepers and plenty of sunshine. Eating lunch on the beach while our friends in our native SW France were unseasonably snowed in was a pleasurable bonus. For a long stay a car is essential and the private parking in the basement was very useful. There is a lot to see and do, including the amazing Alhambra in Granada, just over an hour away, and Gibraltar 2 hours distant. It is also in a very beautiful part of southern Spain, with high mountains running down to the sea.We would thoroughly recommend this apartment for a short or long stay.
