Guestbook comments from the owner
We all had a brilliant time fishing, visiting the zoo, shopping and sunbathing. Excellent spa facilities, very relaxing. The Kalinowski family Stockport.
The children loved the pool, it was very handy to have it so close to the apartment, and they had it to themselves most of the time, which was fantastic Lesly and Gary McDonald and family Jersey.
We had an excellent holiday. The apartment and complex were excellent and the location near the pool made it even better. We could just sit on the sun loungers outside the apartment and watch the children in the pool. We will almost certainly be looking to go back some time Glen Connelly and family Yorks. Without doubt this was the most relaxing holiday we have had for a long time. I am sure we will be contacting you again in the near future George Nixon and family Deeside.We had a fantastic time and it was brilliant to have the facilities we had. Dave was a great help as we did not hire a car.Hope to go back soon. Kelly Dawson ,Burnley.

el Higueron apartment review
We have stayed in this apartment twice and are returning for a third time in July (what more recommendation do you need?). The apartment is spacious and luxurious and benefits from having its own private garden and direct access to the large (often empty) swimming pool. It is located in a peaceful and tranquil setting, but by car many attractions are within easy reach. The best of both worlds. It is perfect for children,our daughter is five now, and has enjoyed each holiday there immensely. The owners are very friendly and ensure that you are fully informed with all information when booking and that all essentials are in the apartment upon arrival. Finally there is an English manager on site which is very useful.
Great location
My family & I stayed here for a week ,it's a great apartment with easy access to the beach by jumping on to the courtesy bus which runs every half hour,or it will take u up the hill to bars,supermarket etc,the apartment has all your needs surrounded by lovely gardens,the access to the pool is just a walk down from a side gate all the others have steps down to it,it would be easy if this one had the same as u could sit on the terrace and watch ones family playing around in the pool.🏄i must say don't leave anything out on the terraces at night as the sprinklers come on and the area is soaking wet,& I mean soaking,also if u have a early flight back don't rely on the taxi number which is left on the information pack(john & Sybil) as thay don't start work till 7am.....
Loved it!
We know the area well and chose this apartment as it is removed from the hustle and bustle of the coast, yet everything is still accessible (even without a car ). The hotel land train is brilliant, running every hour down to beach or up to shops where a supermarket, tapas and pizzas are available (take note lovely tapas, at a very good price can also be enjoyed in the DoubleTree Hilton, only a 2 min walk from the apartment) The public bus runs from up at the shops to the pueblo, ( the old town which is just gorgeous) or alternatively down the hill, straight to the beach where some cool drinks and lunchtime nibbles await. We were catching the land train outside/opposite the Hilton, however a few days into the hol we soon realised the train would pick us up or drop us off right at the apartment. Great service!
It's a lovely apartment, set in beautiful grounds with very nice pools. Apartment itself is great and served all of our needs well ...with wi fi and air con top of our list. We were a group of 3 but apartment can accommodate 4+ comfortably. Has a very large master bedroom and en suite. Small garden which gets the afternoon and early evening sun .
Really have to thank Wyn for facilitating our late check out. This meant the world to us.
Recommended.!!
We love Reserva Del Higueron
The owner was very friendly and supplied all the information we needed and more. The apartment is well furnished and has everything you need for a great stay. Being on the ground floor is ideal particularly if you have children. The development itself is perfect, the gardens are well kept and the pool is ideal for cooling off and playing in. The hotel next door has a bar on the top floor open to all and is a lovely place to watch the sun go down. The supermarket is handy at the top of the development and the land train means that the beach/ stain at Carvajal and shops at the top are super accessible to all. Use the train to travel to Malaga/ airport/ Torremolinos and Fuengirola.
We will be back!!!!
Amazing apartment,well equipped,very clean
Could'nt fault apartment,what a pad!!a little further out from benalmadena than I thought but we managed,I think a little info pack on train, bus times etc would have been helpful.customer service was 110 percent!!
2 weeks of sun and fun
My partner and I spent 2 weeks in the apartment with another couple to celebrate my retirement from teaching after 38 years. The property was easy to book and all the information we received from the owner was accurate. The location was great and we were impressed with the general upkeep of the site which has beautiful gardens, swimming pools and access to the leisure centre with spa, sporting facilities and bar/restaurant.
The apartment was very clean, tastefully and comfortably furnished, well equipped and well maintained. Access to the internet was a bonus.
Although we had hired a car it was perfectly possible to get around by public transport. The hotel courtesy land train enabled us to get to the station for trains to Malaga and Fuengirola which run every 15 minutes. From Malaga it is possible to visit Ronda and the lake at El Chorra. The train also goes directly to the airport. The courtesy land train also runs to the beach and the supermarket. We walked to the beach several times as it is downhill but needed the train for the uphill journey back to the apartment! It is also possible to visit places by buses which stop along the sea front.
My partner and I had a day out together by train in Malaga where we visited the castle and the Picasso museum. We also went to Benalamadina by train, one stop from Carajal, and partook of a lovely tapas lunch. We all went to Rondo, Porto Banus, Fuengirola and Mijas by car all of which we thoroughly enjoyed. On our last night we got the train to Fuengirola which is very lively and went to Moochers Jazz bar, the food, drinks and music were excellent and the taxi home was cheap. Eating out was a real pleasure throughout the holiday and we particularly liked the restaurants in the squares in Pueblo Banalmadina.
The holiday was a mixture of sightseeing and days of leisure at the beach, in the pool, the spa and the apartment garden and the weather was glorious.We ate very well both in and out, and can recommend the menu del dia for a cheap and tasty 3 course meal. We are already looking forward to booking again for next year and will definitely be recommending Reserva Del Higueron to our family, friends and colleagues. What we will not be doing is checking in our luggage on the plane, we took far too many clothes, which was not necessary with the washing machine, so hand luggage only next year!
Map
Minutes away from the Spanish villages of Benalmadena Pueblo And Mijas Pueblo directly off exit 217 of the autovia a short drive or taxi ride from Malaga airport. Peacefully situated in the mountains but still with easy access to a sandy beach down a newly built road.Now with a train service hourly from the beach to the hotel and shops so a car is not absolutely necessary.
Golf: We can help golfers by recommending courses we have personally played. Our favourite course for a leisurely game on a picturesque course where you can drive your sat nav buggy right up to your ball is Mijas Los Olivios. We can also recommend the clubhouse restaurant.Try Alhaurin for stunning views and a challenging course. Torrequebrada is one of the nearest courses and is a magnificent well established championship course. Another favourite of ours is Guadlahorce near Malaga which has a large Spanish membership and a beautiful old clubhouse.La Cala is a well known course in the mountains and I would always recommend a buggy here . The Spanish are starting to realise that many people like a good offer and many such as Mijas offer twilight packages at a healthy discount. All the courses mentioned are within easy reach as well as numerous others. Please contact us for further information
