A home from home in the heart of the village with free wifi, Spanish and UK TV

Beautifully renovated thisproperty has 3 double bedrooms (2 with double beds and 1 with bunk beds) and sleeps up to 6. The second bedroom and bathroom are accessed via the beautiful enclosed courtyard which is adorned with Bougainvillea and Jasmine and has dining table, chairs and BBQ for Al Fresco eating. The top terrace is the ideal place to sunbathe while admiring the fabulous views over Nerja and the sea. There are 2 bathrooms, 1 has a power jet bath and both have showers. The whole house has been charmingly renovated with a taste of Moroccan style and very attractive features. The comfortable and charming living room has Spanish TV and Free2View English TV, (which also gives you access to your favourite TV and radio programs), DVD player and a wood-burning stove (for the winter). The dining room very comfortably seats eight people. The kitchen is fully fitted with 2 electric ovens (1 with eye level grill), microwave, washing machine, dishwasher, fridge freezer, gas hob and extractor fan.


What to do in the area: There is plenty to do in the area. The local historic caves of Nerja are just a walk away. The list of things to do is never ending. Relax and visit a beautician, a spa, have a massage or Reike. Or go and play golf, go paintballing, quad biking, scuba diving, to the aqua park. Visit the cultural Picasso Museum in Malaga, the Alhambra Palace in Granada, the Mesquita in Cordoba and much much more. There is something for everyone.

Contact us if you would like us to find out more about the pastime that you would like to persue while you are on holiday and we will send you all the details.

Lovely Quiet Property and Village
We loved staying at Zoe and Nigel's house in Maro. The house is a gem, clean with a well supplied kitchen. Maro is cute, quiet village close to Nerja, Frigiliana and other sights. Highly recommend taking the drive east down the coast road (340) to Salobreña. Rivals Big Sur and Hwy 1 in many places. We had a great visit and time.

Fabulous comfortable house, friendly helpful hosts
We had a fabulous time in this beautiful house in Maro. Zoe and Nigel were delightful and nothing was too much trouble. The house was clean and tastefully furnished, the bed was super comfortable and having the wood burner was just perfect. We can 100% recommend this place. Perfect for our winter break in stunning Andalusia.

Wonderful village home near the beach
Very nice house in the small village of Maro. Smalls shops and restaurants close by. Beach at 15 minutes walking distance (steep climb back up but absolutely worth it). The house is comfortable and well equipped. We loved our stay, thank you Zoe and Nigel!

Lovely accommodation in a quiet village
We truly enjoyed our very short stay in this property, but sadly, our 3 week planned stay turned into 6 days , three of which were very stressful, due to the Covid19 crisis. We had to cancel 2 weeks of our stay as the crisis worsened in Spain and we were called home to Canada by our Prime Minister. We had been in Spain already for 10 days before arriving in Maro. Our host Zoe was understanding and helpful. Unfortunately the owners' policy was no cash refund, but we were offered a credit for two week stay another time. Although we may never travel again, we wish the owners well as this is a beautiful property.

Beautiful home with wonderful hosts, and...
The home is every bit as beautiful as you hope. This is a time that the photos really don’t do it justice. Zoe was fantastic even going so far as to come and pick up our suitcases (we flew in from the US so got in early morning), so we didn’t have to worry about them all day. The house is well equipped and very comfortable. We were there the second week in August and it was HOT! The A/C in the upstairs bedroom was a huge benefit as it was very hard to keep the rest of the house cool enough to be comfortable even with a fan in the bedroom off the courtyard. Due to the heat, we chose not to go all the way down to Maro beach as the climb back up the steep hill was not a pleasant one. We opted instead for either going into Nerja or nearby Torrox Costa. I think having a car would have been helpful but given the parking situation, opted out. The walk into Nerja realistically is more like 45 minutes and there are busses that go from the roundabout. Of course, the caves have always been a must-see and are an easy walk. There are small shops that sell food and beach stuff. We had coffee in the mornings in Maro but chose to eat meals wherever we were headed for the day. Taxis from Nerja cost about €10. Did I mention how awesome Zoe was?

Lovely house, lovely village
Would thoroughly recommend this house for families. It is very well laid out and located in the centre of Maro with a super view from the upstairs terrace. Maro is sleepy and gorgeous but still has quite a choice of restaurants and bars and Nerja is only a 5 min drive. Zoe and Nigel were exceptional hosts.

Lovely house in a Spanish village
Perfect house in a quiet village close to Nerja, although probably best to take the bus or taxi there in the heat of the day. The nearby beaches a a fair walk down lovely unspoilt lanes and beautiful when you get there. they were quiet in May, but I bet they get busy in the season.

Comfortable Townhouse in a Beautiful Town
We spent a wonderful 2 weeks in late March staying in this very comfortable, clean, and beautifully restored townhouse filled with many decorative Moorish touches. The kitchen was very well equiped and even had 2 ovens which came in handy on several occasions. It was chilly while we were there but the house has heating downstairs and portable heaters should you need heat elsewhere. Nigel and Zoe live close by and are always available should you require help. Maro is a quiet, pretty town which serves as a good hub for day trips to many interesting towns in the area as well as to Malaga. Nerja is close by and a good place to buy groceries, shop and to eat. Be sure to visit the museum in Nerja. It is very informative about how the communities of Nerja and Maro evolved. We had a very good meal in the Detunta restaurant in Maro. Before you arrive in Maro, be sure to pick up basic food necessities. The stores in Maro may be closed.

Comfortable townhouse in a sleepy village
We loved our stay at this comfortable townhouse in sleepy Maro. The property is beautifully and sympathetically restored with a well-equipped kitchen and every modern-day comfort. Being July we were outdoors most of the time; barbecuing in the shady courtyard, or having a sun-downer on the upper terrace while admiring the views over farmland, Nerja and the ocean. There are a handful of good bars and restaurants in the village and we enjoyed exploring the coves to the East; Las Calas del Pino being out favourite (despite the clamber down). Zoe, the owner, was super-helpful. We’ll certainly book more than three nights next time!

Beautiful traditional home
This is a beautifully restored village home with all modern conveniences. It was comfortable and spotlessly clean. The weather was unseasonably poor when we visited in January but it would be fabulous to sit out in the courtyard or on the balcony on a nice warm day, we will have to visit again. Despite the cold and rain the house was nice and warm and if we had needed it there was a lovely wood burning stove. Maro in January is very quiet but there were a couple of restaurants and bars open, all within a couple of minutes walk. Some parking is available on nearby streets but there is a big car park a couple of minutes walk away. Nerja is about a 10 minute drive away so plenty of bustle and life there and then back to the peace of Maro, perfect. Zoe and her husband were good hosts, met us and showed us around, gave us some tips about local amenities and lovely oranges and lemons from their garden. Good communication prior to the trip as well including detailed directions. We would certainly stay again.

Séjour très mitigé
Petite maison typiquement locale plutôt fonctionnelle et bien décorée. Les propriétaires sont réactifs si besoin. Il y a bien 3 chambres, dont une grande au 1er étage, avec une climatisation adaptée aux fortes chaleurs d’été. En revanche, la 2eme chambre du RCH ne dispose que d’un ventilateur et reste chaude durant cette période. Et la supposée 3eme chambre double est un four, car elle donne sur le patio qui lui-même est impossible à rafraîchir .. De plus le climatiseur du salon déverse sa chaleur dans le patio et dans la 3eme chambre, ce qui ne fait qu’augmenter la température du lieu qui devient vite irrespirable. Concernant le parking, en Août il est impossible de trouver une place libre durant la journée. Par contre il est possible de garer sa voiture dans un parking public et de ne plus la bouger. Les 2 plages les plus proches à pied, sont difficiles d’accès; il ne reste donc que la solution voiture pour aller sur les plages de Nerja où le problème de stationnement demeure ! En conclusion: Maison à déconseiller fortement durant la période chaude de l’été.
