Casarabonela
Casarabonela is a steep white village under the Sierra de las Nieves, one of the most striking pueblos in the valley. Guests drive up for the view and stay if the house is as carefully kept as the streets.
Letting a house in Casarabonela
The last turn is uphill. We say so. The guests who want the view still come.
- Village houses with a terrace over the valley
- Photographers, walkers, and week-long escapes
- Arrival notes for a village where the last turn is always uphill
The fee is 20% of the net rent, plus IVA. That is the listing, the messages, check-in, a hotel-grade clean, and someone going to the house when a message will not fix it. You block the weeks you want it yourself. Those weeks are not sold.

Between one guest and the next
01
The way in is written down
The note for Casarabonela says where to leave the car. A pin on its own is how people arrive annoyed. A pin on a map is not enough when the last turning looks wrong.
02
Guests stay for the week
Most people who book Casarabonela stay for several nights, not a single night on the way to somewhere else. A quiet week is not priced like a full one in August.
03
The house is checked before they arrive
Heat, water, a light that works, and the pool if the house has one. A fault found in the afternoon is better than one the guest reports.
04
The weeks you want stay blocked
The calendar is held in one place. The weeks you want the house yourself come off before anyone can book them.
Who you talk to
Ivana
Ivana looks after the valley, from the airport towns up to the high villages. She moved to Spain to do this, and she is the person a guest actually reaches.
For a house in Casarabonela, this is who you talk to. Same phone as the rest of Guadalhorce.
+34 744 749 203Questions owners ask
The same answers we give on the phone, for a house in Casarabonela.
What is the fee, out here in the valley?
20% of the net rent, plus IVA. A house in Casarabonela is not priced as a favour, and it is not priced as if it were on the Golden Mile. The percentage is the same. The season is not.
We want the pool to ourselves in August.
Block it. Tell Ivana before the calendar opens. Your own weeks and a walker who needs the house the night before a hike are both easy to protect if they are written down, and a mess if they are not.
Do valley houses need a tourist licence too?
Yes. The register applies here the same as on the coast. A guest staying ten nights instead of three is not an exemption. We go through what the house still needs, and we do not advertise past it.
Who is actually nearby?
Ivana. She covers the towns from Alhaurín up into the sierra. She moved to Spain to do this work. The guest is not being talked through a gate code by someone reading a map in another office.
Pools, gates, wifi. Who deals with those?
They are the usual calls, including on a Saturday. Someone who already knows the house goes. You get the cost at the time, not a surprise list in October. We ask before anything that is not straightforward.
Will you pretend the house is on the beach?
No. Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo, and the listing says Casarabonela: how long it takes to reach Málaga or the coast, and what the house really is. Village houses with a terrace over the valley. We do not borrow a sea view.
What should an owner in Casarabonela be honest about?
The last turn is uphill. We say so. The guests who want the view still come. Arrival notes for a village where the last turn is always uphill
We live outside Spain.
So do plenty of the owners. The note for Casarabonela says where to leave the car. A pin on its own is how people arrive annoyed. The key, the arrival note and the person who answers are here.
What is included between one guest and the next?
The house, properly, and on a week-long stay a look at the pool and the garden. Dust from the lane shows in photographs and in reviews. We would rather deal with it than read about it.
What do you need from us at the start?
Where the house is, how a stranger gets in, and which months you want it empty of guests. Call Ivana. Photographs come after that conversation.
Also in Guadalhorce
Ivana looks after the neighbouring towns as well. Same people, same standard, a different road.
