Casa Patricia

Rustic villa in the Málaga hinterland, in the hills of Álora, on a property with no neighbours and no boundary walls, with open views of the mountains. It is not a hotel: Ken and Pat, former English restaurateurs, host a few couples in their own home in four rooms with bathroom, kitchenette and air conditioning, and the package includes all meals, self-service drinks at the two bars and the airport transfer for those staying at least seven nights. The heart of the day is dinner: everyone eats together at one long table with the hosts, and those who come back, and there are many, come mainly for that, for the company and the evenings. Adults only, with a rate for one person too. The house caters both to naturists and to those who practise the lifestyle: the managers write openly about fun with other guests, in the bedroom or in the pool, there is a room next to the pool also presented as a playroom, and the website links to swingers' clubs and sites. Those looking only for quiet naturism or hotel service would do well to ask first: rooms are cleaned on request, several dogs live in the house and over the years some have found the premises neglected. Around the house there are good walks, often guided by Ken, with the Caminito del Rey and the El Chorro lakes 40 minutes away and the coast at the same distance.
