Great 1 Bedroom Studio with wonderful views, Swimming Pool and Jacuzzi

Vine Ridge Studio is below the owners house. It is reachable within 1 hour from Malaga and situated less than 1 mile up a typical Andalucian track just below the beautiful 'Blanco' village of Comares. It has been designed to take full advantage of the 'Breathtaking' views which take into account both the Mediterranean and also the Rugged Mountain Ranges .'Vine Ridge' Studio is a flexible, comfy and well equipped self contained unit which is 'Excellent Value' in stunning surroundings. The accommodation includes use of a 'Roman ' stepped swimming pool from which the Mediterranean can be seen and also the peaks of Mount Maroma. There is also an outdoor shower. Hot tub available at extra cost.
It has plenty of terraces, outdoor tables and seating and from wherever you look you will see another view, which is appropriate as we located on the 'Buena Vista' walking route with it's amazing views of Andalucia.

Perfect place.
If you want to visit an authentic part of Spain; look out at stunning, spectacular views every day; go trekking on the mountainside in warm weather (even in winter) or just relax and chill out in an apartment in a fabulous villa with a swimming pool, a jacuzzi, great hosts and unbeatable prices, yet still only 40 minutes from the beaches of Torre del Mar (if you can drag yourself away), then Vine Ridge Retreats near the village of Comares, is the perfect place for you. We have just stayed there for one week and wish it could have been much longer. It was the first time we had stayed in accommodation where the owner was on site and were not sure how it would work out. But it couldn't have been better! David (the owner) was very friendly and welcoming and put us at our ease right away. Throughout our stay he was always there to answer any questions and was very knowledgeable about the surrounding area. We were there house hunting and he went out of his way to help. His advice and knowledge were invaluable in pointing us in the right direction for first time buyers in Spain. Although David was always there when he was needed he was also careful to respect our privacy and to give us our own space. In summary; Vine Ridge Retreats is a great place to stay for the reasons mentioned, and many more, but no review would be complete without a mention for David's three little helpers- AKA Bruno, Charlie and Chico – three of the cutest and friendliest dogs you will ever meet. They made an enjoyable experience even more enjoyable. Needless to say: we will be back!

Peaceful Place
Great views and all you could need in the apartment. Lovely hosts and very informative about the local areas with some great recommendations. Short distance to Comares and not far to Torre Del Mar for fantastic seafood at the chiringitos.

Entspannung hoch über dem Meer
Der Aufenthalt lohnt sich sehr, wenn man die Ruhe sucht, abends ins jacuzzi gehen möchte und den Sternenhimmel und die Landschaft geniessen möchte. Man sollte bisschen robust sein, was die Anfahrt ( letztes Stück betrifft), was aber durch den Ort der Unterkunft sehr schnell wieder wettgemacht wird. Die Vermieter sind ausgesprochen nett und hilfsbereit!

Relax assoluto per riposare e godere di un panorama mozzafiato
Due settimane di relax e tranquillità; proprietari molto disponibili e presenti per ogni richiesta. Abbiamo potuto godere della tranquillità del luogo, unità al lusso di una bella piscina e idro jacuzzi. Il bello di visitare un borgo come Comares con i suoi dintorni e la sera godere di una bella grigliata di verdure, di pesce o carne cucinati sui bbq a disposizione degli ospiti di David e jaqui. Una vacanza così ci voleva, grazie! Andrea e Nataliya

Prachtig appartement met fantastisch uitzicht over de uitlopers van de Narvada.
Studio appartement van alle gemakken voorzien en met een heerlijk zwembad + jacuzzi. Vriendelijke behulpzame eigenaren (Brits) met een aantal leuke hondjes(niet storend). Appartement is tot de laatste 1.5 km goed te vinden en bereikbaar waarna er een smalle stijle gedeeltelijk onverharde weg volgt. Robuste auto is wel handig (zeker als het geregent heeft). Voor minder valide mensen is deze plek niet geschikt.Wij hebben hier een fantastische week vakantie mogen beleven en raden dit zeker aan voor avonturiers.

Wonderful Apartment with amazing views and lovely people
We spend one week at Vine Ridge and want to come back as soon as possible. Every time we have to drive up and down the hill, it was an adventure. For the first time we had some trouble to come up, but after the second time it went great and also was a little bit fun. :) The apartment is homely and comfortabel. The pool is wonderful and the views on the surrounding mountains are amazing! We enjoyed every second at Vine Ridge. David and Jacqui are very very friendly and helped us, if we have some questions or other requests. Thanks again to you both! We are already missing the 3 dogs and the ambiance. La Axarquía is a nice place to spend the holidays. To many sights and lovely spots for a one week stay. I hope we can discover more next year!

Comfy apartment, gorgeous views, lovely owners, sweet dogs
David and Jacqui were incredibly friendly and helpful from the first mail to the last goodbyes. The studio was clean and comfortable, and obviously furnished by people who have stayed in such apartments and thought about what they'd like to have when they travel. The kitchen has everything you need to cook simple meals, there's a little sofa in addition to the table and chairs, there's plenty of storage space and several hangers for clothes. A minor detail (but one we notice, especially when lacking): there are plenty of hooks in the bathroom. The views really are that stunning and more. Though the drive up to the apartment is a bit hairy, it's worth it. We woke every morning to gorgeous sunrises over the mountains, and enjoyed watching the last light fall in the evenings on those same - but ever-changing - mountains. A word to the wise about the location. If you've read more of the reviews of Vine Ridge (we did), this shouldn't come as a surprise (and yet, it did): the spot is more remote than I was expecting. (It was also more peaceful and beautiful than I was expecting, so I'm really not complaining!) If you are visiting Andalusia for the first time and want to see as much as possible, you might want to think about staying someplace less remote, or moving around to a couple of other locations in addition. Wherever you stay: check Google Maps before you go, and pay close attention to the driving *times*, not just the distances. The distances are deceptive, because it's hard to imagine from flatter regions of the world just how twisty, turny, upy-downy those distances are. (On the other hand, that also made all our drives just gorgeous.) If you're looking for a spot with gorgeous views and pretty walks close by, and are planning to spend about half (or more) of your time chilling out at the pool, reading a book in front of the lovely views, and/or petting the dogs, then this is the place for you. Thanks again to David and Jacqui for a wonderful vacation.
