The Andalucia / Malaga Province region

Population of the city of Málaga proper was 558,287 as of 2005 estimates. Population of the urban area was 814,000 as of 2005 estimates. Population of the metropolitan area (urban area plus satellite towns) was 1,074,074 as of 2005 estimates, ranking as the fifth largest metropolitan area in Spain. Málaga, home to the new Picasso museum, is surrounded by mountains, lying in the southern base of the Axarquía hills, and two rivers, the Guadalmedina (its on the left bank) and the Guadalhorce, flow near the city into the Mediterranean.

The climate is mild and equable, the mean annual temperature being about 19 °C (66 °F). For its broad sky and broad expanse of bay the city has been compared to Naples.

The inner city of Málaga is just behind the harbour. The quarters of El Perchel, La Trinidad and Lagunillas surround this centre. The city has much revenue from the agricultural sector and from tourism.

The Holy Week, Semana Santa, and the Málaga Fair, "Feria de Málaga" are the two most well-known of Málaga's festivals.

A popular walk leads up the hill to the Gibralfaro castle (a Parador), offering extensive views over the city. The castle is next to the Alcazaba, which in turn is next to the inner city of Málaga. By taking the Paseo del Parque, a promenade that runs alongside a park with many palm trees and statues, one can walk to the harbour.

The Casarabonela area

La Sierra de las Nives (literally, the mountains of the snows) is, some would argue,one of the most beautiful National Park in all Andalucía. It is certainly one of Spain's richest natural enclaves, now protected by UNESCO with Biosphere Reserve status.

It is not particulary high, averaging 1,100 metres, with Mount Torrecilla the highest peak at 1,919 metres. It boasts an impressive array of both flora and fauna and is even more famous for its potholes, one of which is the third deepest in the world.

Although there are no towns within the Park itself, its perimeter is dotted with pretty villages, Alozaina, Casarabonela, Tolox, Guaro, Istán, Monda, Ojén and Yunquera. Of Moorish origin, they retain their narrow, winding streets and their Arabic-inspired handicraft skills.

Locally there is plenty of quality walking to be enjoyed (there is even a Roman pathway), as well as horse trekking, paragliding and a wealth of nature to be discovered.
Besides visiting the area of Sierra de las Nieves from La Era, day trips may be made to cities such as Ronda, Granada, Marbella, Antequera, El Chorro gorge and nearby lakes, Gibraltar, Cordoba, and Sevilla.

Granada, where the Alhambra is an obligated visit, is approximately a 135 km. drive from La Era. Antequera, with the enigmatic natural stone structures of El Torcal National Park close by is a mere 45 km. from La Era. El Chorro gorge and lakes is 35 km from La Era. To the monumental cities of Ronda and Sevilla there are 70 Km. and 220 Km. respectively. Marbella, city where the jet set abound is at a distance of 70 km from the villa.

As well, excellent beaches and golf courses can be found along all of the Costa del Sol - Torremolinos (45 Km.approx.), Fuengirola (55 Km. approx.), Marbella (70 Km. approx.) and Estepona (80 Km. approx.).

Reset Map

La Era is easily reached from Malaga via the A-357 direction Cartama. After about twenty minutes on this road you will find a sign on your right indicating Casarabonela & Alozaina on the A-354. Turn left onto this road and
after 10 minutes turn right towards Casarabonela (A-7275), before actually going into the village and after the Peugeot Garage you will find on your right the first of six signs towards La Era. They will lead you to a dirt road (in good condition) and to two steep climbs which can be easily salvaged in first gear and stepping on the gas. Whether you are coming from the Malaga Airport or Marbella via the N-340 the prior roads are the same to reach La Era. From Sevilla or Granada the approach should be made via the A-92 first and later the A-382 to Campillos which connects with the A-357 direction Malaga and again reaching the A-354 into Casarabonela.

Nearest airport is Malaga. Many airlines fly direct from various European destinations.
Nearest train station with taxi services : Alora

Guestbook for Hotel/Villa La Era

The Villa has been fantastic! Date of stay: July 2011.We´ve done something similar for 14 years and think is the nicest property we have rented. Fiona L. U.K.
"Heaven in the hills". Date of Stay: July 2010.
In July we had the good fortune to stay for a week in 'La Era' .We were having a large family 'gathering' and La Era turned out to be the perfect place for this. Sandra. Scotland.
"Perfectly situated villa with great facilities". Date of Stay: August 2010.
We have stayed in the villa with 4 families with children (16 in total) and we all had a great time! There is plenty of room inside and outside so you can be on your own but also be together at different spots.
The view is great from all angles and the rooms and bedrooms are spacious with all facilities you need. This applies also for the kitchen which has all you need when you are with a big group.
This has been the 4th time we spent holidays together and this facility has clearly been the best place that we have visited.
We can and will recommend this villa to others and please ignore negative reviews!

" Priceless!!!!. Date of Stay: July 2010
Loved to stay at this beautiful villa!!!
We stayed with family and had the chance to be together and still be very comfortable as we each had our own bathroom in our room. Quality of the house as if it were a hotel. Very spacious and comfortable to stay with family and friends. Pau Miami, FL. USA.

"Beautiful villa,amazing views.Very peaceful".May 2008.
We rented the villa as a family group to attend a wedding nearby. We all immediately felt at home. It is set high up overlooking the pretty town of Casarabonela, which after dark looks magical. The rooms are spacious and beautifully laid out and decorated. Each room has amazing views across the mountains. There is a lovely quiet and relaxing living room also with stunning views and a large dining room with a patio area with views across to the town.The kitchen and laundry room are very well equipped. The owner filled the pool early for us (May). It was a bit chilly but made for some bracing swims!
The villa is a five minuet drive, down fairly steep rough roads, to the town which has all the amenities.
We had a very relaxing, peaceful holiday. We would certainly reccommend La Era to people wanting to get away from the conventional image of the Coast del Sol. It is an excellent base for exploring the 'real' Spain.
Recommended for: Sightseeing, Romantic Getaway. Deborah&Andrew Bath, Somerset. England
