Cortijo Los Tulipanes Periana by Ruralidays

Travelled with 3 generations and can honestly say it is one of the best equipped villas for all age groups. The pool is fantastic. We were a group of 14, and it never felt crowded. The grandchildren loved the paddle court and table tennis. Daughters loved the shaded lounge area with amazing views. The self-catering facility tops any we have stayed in. Everything you can think of is provided We loved the large communal kitchen designed for group cooking. Rafael is the perfect host. Nothing is to much trouble, always at the end of the phone with help and advice

The only downside. It's already booked for our dates next year.

From the moment we arrived, Rafael, our host, was nothing short of outstanding. Warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the local area, he seemed to know everyone and everything—from the best tapas spots to the most scenic sights. His visits every other day to clean the pool and check if we needed anything were always welcome, and never intrusive. We were a party of three families spanning three generations, and the villa’s layout couldn’t have suited us better. The three separate houses gave each family their own space while keeping us close enough for easy, shared moments. The first villa, by the main gate, offered two levels of comfortable living. The second, accessed through the terrace, was entirely on one level—perfect for those who preferred no stairs. The third, perched up a few steps near the BBQ area, felt like a private retreat. The pool was a highlight—large, sparkling, and just the right temperature to refresh without a shock. On hot afternoons, it was bliss; in the evenings, it was still inviting. The covered seating area beside it caught the breeze beautifully, becoming our go-to gathering place both by day and under the stars. Inside, the well-appointed kitchen was more than just practical—it became a social hub where conversations flowed as easily as the wine. Outside, the terrace, with its long dining table, was the heart of our mealtimes, whether for lingering breakfasts or lively dinners. Cortijo Los Tulipanes gave us privacy, comfort, and the perfect spaces to come together. Combined with Rafael’s exceptional hospitality, it made for an unforgettable holiday. We can’t recommend it highly enough
