Looking for recommendations for a villa or apartment to hire in Spain for 10 days next September. We are a couple with a toddler, so looking for something family friendly, preferably with a pool (shared or private) and not too far from Malaga airport. Ideally somewhere on the coast between Malaga and Marbella. Any recommendations for areas around there also gratefully received.


Thanks in advance forumites.

Hi Hollie,


I know it's not quite what you are looking for but we are off to the Algarve on Saturday (woohoo) and staying in a place about 20mins from Faro airport. I'll let you know what it's like when we get back, but it's called Fonte Verde if you want a look.


I searched for ages and the sites I found most useful (other than forum suggestions of course) were baby friendly bolt holes, the family friendly sections of Alastair Sawdays and Mr & Mrs Smith, and also the holiday review section on mumsnet which has tons of suggestions listed by country and hotel vs self catering.


Hope you guys are well x

Hi


We stayed in a lovely villa: Villa Barranco Jarana in June this year. We booked it through a company called Villa Plus who are brilliant and very reasonably priced.

The villa is near Mijas and on the Marbella/puerto Banus coastline.

You would need to hire a car though. Can't recommend the villa enough!

    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open. 
    • I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.
    • @Jenijenjen I assure you we are always polite and friendly too! Which is why the behaviour we have been receiving is so frustrating. The kids always leave her with a “Thank you have a lovely day”  Our concern is leaving the gate slightly wedged doesn’t stop the action of slamming it open and closed…still leading to damage  
    • If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
