Malaga Hotel with Pool, Views for rent
Hotel Bandolero in Malaga Andalucia Spain

Steely grey mountain tops, soaring eagles, deep valley vistas, verdant chestnut trees, white villages, big sky, wild flowers & cactus, mountain goats, boars, black pigs & rabbits…. these are some of the scenes to behold while staying at Hotel Bandolero. El Bandolero is a small, charming rural hotel and restaurant tucked away in one of the seven small white villages of the Upper Genal Valley in the Ronda Mountains in the greenest part of Andalucia.

Owners David and Ivan welcome you to their charming accommodation in the village of Júzcar in the Genal Valley where you can escape all the pressures and stress of urban life. Experience the pace of traditional Spanish living while relaxing on the terrace, sampling local Ronda wines and tapas as you enjoy the marvellous views that the lush chestnut tree country of the Upper Genal Valley has to offer.

Energetic springtime visitors will get to view some of the 2,000 species of blossoming wild flowers in the pristine valley while on marked walks between the seven white villages of the Alto Genal. Autumnal visitors will enjoy the changing colours of the chestnut trees while summertime visitors can swim & relax poolside at the hotel or participate in extreme outdoor adventures in and around the Genal River in Júzcar; for birdwatchers, there are many varieties of migrating birds year round throughout the Serrania de Ronda (Ronda mountains). For everyone all year, the mountaintops offer spectacular views, including all the way to Africa! And there are two large natural parks nearby, La Sierra de las Nieves Biosphere Reserve and Grazalema Natural Park, both excellent locations for walking and bird watching.


Of course there is El Bandolero to discover. El Bandolero, constructed in a rustic style in 2001, offers tapas and creative cuisine along with the creature comforts of country living. The hotel consists of eight spacious double rooms including two suites, a breakfast dining room, restaurant, bar and terrace, lounge, swimming pool and terrace, and has internet access and a WiFi hot spot gratis for hotel guests.

Six of the spacious rooms have wood-burning stoves & terraces with stunning views of the valley and mountains. All rooms are decorated in a rustic style, have en-suite bathrooms and include coffee/tea facilities, televisions and central heating.

Sample the delicious cuisine of Chef Iván, a Cordon Bleu trained chef with work experience in some fine London restaurants; sip a refreshing “tinto de verano” (red wine and lemonade over ice) on any one of El Bandolero’s terraces, taste the tapas, relax and let the views carry you away.
