There is a good mobile phone signal and we provide fast WiFi, free of charge.
Casa Christabel adjoins Casa Annabel which can be booked together to allow for larger groups of family or friends. Please ask the owner for any additional information required.

Sustainability-We have recently invested in a solar powered hot water tank which holds 300 litres of hot water, (with a backup boiler for those few cloudy days) so you will never run out of hot water.
You will find reusable dish cloths & scourers for your pots and pans and instead of providing plastic bottles of mineral water you will find a lovely glass bottle of tap water waiting for you in the fridge when you arrive.
You will find lunch boxes & refillable bottles for to take drinks to the beach with you so there is no need to buy products in single use plastic wrapping or bottles. We have also installed pump dispensers of shampoo, conditioner and shower gel to the avoid the use of single use plastics.
Our housekeepers use eco-friendly cleaning products and the new washing machine uses only the minimum amount of water necessary. Our aircon is monitored so that it cannot be accidentally left on when you open the door or go out for the day.
You will find shopping bags and a wheel along crate to take to the shops so that you don’t have to buy plastic bags when you go shopping and we encourage our guests to sort and recycle rubbish. You will find beach toys, inflatables and a body board for your children so you don’t have to buy a new bucket and spade each time you stay. This avoids having plastic items abandoned on the beach.
Mi Jardin has a Spanish pueblo (village) atmosphere and was carefully constructed in a traditional Andalusian style.
Mi Jardin is perfect if you want to relax and get away from it all and yet all that the Costa del Sol has to offer is easily accessible.
The beautiful blue flag Carvajal beach with its highly recommended Spanish churinguito Kalifato and usual water sports, is a 15 minute (1.1km) walk away. N.B. it is a 20 minute-walk back as it is uphill. Why not treat yourself to a swim in the lovely pool on your way home?
The pool does not have a lifeguard however it is fully enclosed for safety.The pool is open from 1st march until 31st October and from 10 am-9 pm (10 pm in July and August)
Beach/pool towels are provided. We have provided sunbeds which you are welcome to carry to the pool.
The shops, pavement cafes, bars and the recommended Indian restaurant New Nirvana are at El Higueron, a 20 -minute walk (uphill) or 5 minutes and around 5€ in and Uber taxi. Aldi is only a further 5 minutes -walk away! Carvajal train station is 20 minutes-walk or 5 minutes and around 3.50€ in an Uber taxi, making Fuengirola, Benalmadena, Malaga City and the Airport within easy reach.
The trains run to the airport every 20 minutes and the station is inside the airport terminal
The journey to the airport takes just under 30 minutes and costs just over 2€.
When booking flights please note that the train stops running between 2330 and 0530, however a taxi will cost around 35€.
Airport transfers can be arranged on your behalf from 30€
There are bus stops at El Higueron at the top of the urbanizacion Torremar and also down by the beach.
A car is therefore not necessary however it would be an advantage if you like to explore.
Free communal parking is available.
Following the drought restrictions in Andalusia this summer, the community pool is open from Wednesdays to Sundays. The situation will be regularly reviewed.

Review

By Bouke on 01-Apr-2024

Nice apartment, well equipped and with very good beds. The terrace is exactly as on the photo''s, a very nice view, with sunloungers and enough room to eat outside. We were not lucky with the weather, so couldn''t enjoy this, 4 days rain in a 5 days stay! (according to the taxidriver it didn''t rain in the last 3 years!!) On the only dry and sunny day we had a nice trip to Mijas. Up the mountain by bus, lunch there and walking back to the coast along quiet countryroads. Sarah is a wonderful host. She made arrangements for a taxi to and from the airport, answers via app or mail very quick when there are any questions and gives a lot of information about the surroundings. Response from Sarah

Excellent time in Benalmadena

The information provided by Sarah was spot on regards logistics, Uber (although costs slightly higher than suggested) Very clean apartment with everything possible utensil and kit you need inc. new kitchen and up to date smart t.v.

Relaxing and Peaceful

By Shel G on 01-May-2023

Perfect home from home, it''s not short of anything you need for a lovely peaceful relaxing holiday even down to the shopping trolley to take to the supermarket at the top of the hill. The bed is huge and very comfortable. Glasses for every type of drink . We particularly enjoyed eating our breakfast on the terrace listening to the birds chirping away . The apartment is kind of in the middle on the end of Benalmadena and the start of Fuengerole and close to the train station at Carvajal which takes you all the way to Malaga via several other stops . The hill is a bit of a challenge if you''re not young lol but we just used the white Taxis . Can''t fault the apartment or Sarah''s communication.

Lovely Relaxing Break

By Fussy1 on 01-Apr-2023

We were looking for a quiet , relaxing , get away from it all break and that is exactly what we got ! The apartment is in a lovely hillside location on a private estate which is beautifully maintained . The apartment has obviously recently been fully refurbished and is exceptionally clean . The hosts Sarah and Gary seem to have thought of everything you need for a self catering holiday and also provided us with a range of information prior to our arrival regarding the apartment . the area , and recommended restaurants ( some of which give you a discount on your bill ! ) . There is a residents only pool 5 mins from the apartment set in a lovely secure garden area . The seafront and its restaurants / bars are a leisurely 20 min walk or a taxi will cost 5 euros . We made good use of the local buses and trains to visit all the local resorts and attractions ( they''re reliable and cheap ) . Would highly recommend this apartment and will definitely stay again .

Peace, privacy, comfort and sunshine!

By Neil H on 01-Mar-2023

Such a peaceful location to enjoy long lie-ins - no car noises on any side of the property, and no people walking past the door. Instead, birdsong, sunshine and privacy. And a nice view of the coast and sea! Giant double bed was a bonus - 6’ 6” in both directions! Casa Christabel is a really well prepared 1-bed apartment+ lounge/diner with everything we needed. It’s clear the owners care a great deal about giving a great customer experience, plus their communications were clear and always so helpful. Stayed next door in Casa Annabel in 2017, and that was lovely too of course (a studio apartment with King size bed). We’d stay again in either apartment! Read less
