Nerja · Maro · Frigiliana — Costa del Sol

Seven homes we'd recommend to a close friend.

We've been on this coast since 1989. We turn down more properties than we accept. These seven are the ones we stand behind.

Where we work

Three villages, one coast

Each with its own character. All within twenty minutes of each other.

Our promise

Chosen by hand. Looked after in person.

01

Seven homes, not seven hundred

We're offered far more houses than we take on. Seven have earned their place — each one we'd happily send our own family to, and often do.

How we choose
02

The home that suits you

Morning sun at the breakfast table? A pool for the children? Quiet enough to lose an afternoon to a book? Tell us what matters, and we'll point you to the home that fits — not simply the one that's free.

Tell us what matters
03

We're already there

Someone who knows the coast, the neighbours, and which terrace catches the evening light — with the keys in hand the day you arrive. Here, you're a guest, never a booking reference.

Since 1989

A family story

Our family started this in 1989 with one apartment in Nerja. Now seven homes across three villages. The rule has never changed: only list places we'd stay in ourselves.

Best place on Costa del Sol — marvelous, peaceful, full comfort, amazing view and location and with the best service. I really recommend, don't hesitate to book.

Me quedé una semana con mi pareja porque quería desconectar de la ciudad y no pude haber elegido mejor. La ubicación 10/10, el trato que te dan es imposible mejorarlo.

Our third visit to Katharina's. It's such a lovely place — always clean and comfortable with a fabulous location. We will be returning again soon.
