Clean, comfortable large apartment

Good dinner and breakfast, very friendly host. Really quiet, I slept an hour longer than usual.

Such lovely staff made me feel so welcome, dinner was excellent

When I visited, I found it exceptional. I was welcomed by Carmen whose hotel it is. The hotel is a converted Spanish building in a small village. The rooms are just stunning. Each room is named after a city and she gave me “Paris“. The interior decor is fabulous. Everything you could possibly imagine was there, even including a Jacuzzi. It was early March and cold, but she showed me three separate means of heating the room although I didn’t need any. This is the real Spain, and ideally you will have to speak some Spanish. I have no Spanish but Carmen has enough English to communicate very adequately. She is Romanian via Italy to Spain and tells me that she designed the whole hotel herself because “I love drawing “. She served me a wonderful breakfast after asking “what would you like?” I suggested fried eggs and bacon And they came beautifully presented. She would have been very happy to provide anything else. The hotel does not serve dinner - and of course it’s a very small village- but Carmen took me by the arm, sheltering under an umbrella from the rain as we walked a short distance to the local restaurant / pub. Again, I felt embarrassed not speaking Spanish , but I coped and obtained a super pizza and a beer. Returning to the hotel, I had one of the best night sleep for a long while. You really do feel that you are part of their family. The village story and location is quite fascinating . There are only about 100 – elderly – residents and declining. The village is traditional Spanish with amazing views out across the plains to the mountains in the distance. It does take some travelling to reach it, but this is its charm. (An idea of how remote it is, is that the five children in the village will soon be taken to main school which is a two hour bus ride away – each way). I found it on Booking.com as I was exploring a route by car from Algeciras through to Barcelona crossing as much country and mountains as I could.

Everything. We have been 4 times to this property. We love the peace and quiet. The house is very cosy the ideal place to just chill and relax away from it all.

Camañas is a quaint little village in a beautiful and quiet countryside but with castle ruins and a pretty church. The suite we booked (Malve) was gorgeous. Well lit, beautifully decorated and comfortable…luxurious even (especially for two cyclists!) Sara greeted us even before we checked-in via Whatsapp. Communication was excellent and Sara was very friendly, down to earth and helpful. There was a shared kitchen with everything we needed and even a dry place to store our bicycles!

Everything. We have been traveling through Europe every year for 6 years and this was the nicest accommodation on our travels. Comfy beds, wonderful hosts. We will definitely come back.
