Hotel Los Jarales

We liked its location in a very cute white village and because the view from the hotel to the valley. We forced to wait above 10 minutes to any reaction from the staff while reaching the hotel. Everything was closed.Let them understand their duty to be ready for arrival of their guests who booked their staying in advance.

We were able to our little dog with us......it was very quiet and convenient for walking and exploring the local area...there is a sauna and jacuzzi with a gym soon to be added. The breakfast was abit poor.....the resteraunt closed at 5pm but the family who ran the hotel were very pleasant and made us welcome.

nice location (starting point for walks in sierra de las nieves, 5 min walk from Istan village, yet only 20 min walk to the beach), very authentic and quiet (what a contrast to the tourist industry cast in concrete down in marbella), staff reasonably helpful. good place for people who like the real (sort of) spain away from the mainstream crowds. food wasnt exactly overwhelming. perfectly ok if you expect a relatively inexpensive, comfy and authentic place in rural spain. perhaps not the right choice if what you're looking for is a large, international hotel with all the amenities and not much of the local character.
