Ravi par la qualité de l'établissement, de l'accueil, de la nourriture et le charme du lieu
Pros:

Cette petite auberge est magnifique et très bien tenue. Un Patio super charmant avec des voilures pour l'ombre.Un chien tout mignon vient vous accueillir pour recevoir des caresses, la chambre est charmante, il y a la climatisation, un coin piscine très agréable entre 2 ou 3 pins, on est vraiment tranquille. Ca fait vraiment chambre d'hôte.
Le restaurant: tout semble fait maison et les prix sont très corrects, les tapas sont fameux et beaucoup moins chers que sur la côte, les propriétaires (un couple d'Anglais) sont très amicaux. 0 15 km la petite ville de Alhama de Murcia, avec sur le devant du marché un flash code à scanner pour faire un jeu de piste en famille qui nous fait voir les endroits historiques de la ville, super!

Cons:

Il y a juste que c'est un coin assez éloigné dans les collines arides, mieux vaut être sûr de sa voiture car en cas de panne. Cela dit c'est ce qui fait qu'on y est tranquille.

Heerlijk gegeten, fijne verblijf gehad
Pros:

Ben nog vergeten te melden dat het eten echt heerlijk was. Gilda kan zo goed koken. We hebben lamb chops gegeten en tapas. Was ontzettend lekker. De prijzen zijn echt niet duur. Wij vonden het juist heel goedkoop. Mochten wij weer een keer in de buurt zijn dan komen wij zeker langs !

Special celebration holiday at The Mariposa
Pros:

We loved the location, Gavin's gracious hospitality, and friendly manner. Wonderful host, and very knowledgeable about the area.
Food is very good, as is the service.
This is a relaxed venue, so if you're looking for perfection, go somewhere else. We preferred this.
Gavin and partner have just recently become owners of this little hotel, and they are fully committed to improving it in every way.
We wish them well!

Cons:

Lack of snack and drinks service for residents between 4-7pm, and no service at all on mondays. But, they are building up a wonderful little business, and we have no desire to complain

Peaceful, relaxing and restorative!
Pros:

Breakfast was a help yourself buffet. Very nice.
Tapas was excellent, evening meal was well cooked and really delicious.
The staff were so helpful, going above and beyond - even arranging for us to eat at a local restaurant when we struggled to get in anywhere because we were late back.
Rooms were great, comfy and clean.
Art class was really enjoyable.

Cons:

Pool and surrounding area were clean and tidy, but are due to be updated. The current owners are new in post, so understandably can’t do everything at once!
