Guest Reviews
- Günther (9/5): Schöne Höhlenwohnung mit Ruhe und Aussicht - Die Lage und Ruhe auf einer Anhöhe mit Blick auf andere Cuevas, Cathedral und Castillo ist sehr schön. Man kann das sehr angenehm vom Vorplatz vor der Wohnung genießen.
Das Innere der Höhlenwohnung ist schön und neuwertig. Angel war gut erreichbar und sehr hilfsbereit(Danke für die Weingläser!).
Der Parkplatz neben dem Haus ist angenehm. Trotz der von Angel eingestellten Heizung war es Mitte Mai abends und nachts doch ziemlich kühl, so dass wir uns eine Erkältung zugezogen haben.
Zusätzliche Decken wären gut gewesen.
In der Küche wären wir über Salz, Pfeffer und Zucker froh gewesen.
- Patricia (9/5): - L'adresse un peu compliquée à trouver
- Javier (7/5): Un lugar agradable, pero necesita alguna actualización. - La Ubicación y el diseño. Aunque no lo utilizamos, la campana extractora estaba muy Oxidada y sólo hay un armario que se encuentra en la habitación principal, con lo que es insuficiente.
- Vandermaesen (9/5): -
- David (9/5): -
- Dr Phillip (9/5): Very stylish accommodation, perhaps needing a woman's input to facilities. - Loved the location close to the historic centre. The cave was extremely stylish, seemingly architect-designed. If not, then certainly someone with good taste and flair. The only thing(s) that could be better were the provision of tea towel(s) to aid washing up and a heater to warm the cave, as nights were chilly. That said, perhaps the fact that the underfloor heating could not be controlled by guests and was therefore set to a timer was a little disappointing. Final ask for future reference is to please provide more than one toilet roll. One between two persons for a three-night stay seems frugal.
- carlos h. (9/5): Genial para vivir una experiencia en cueva - Ubicación
- nathalie (10/5): Super séjour les enfants ont adoré vivre dans une maison troglodyte avec une déco moderne - Nous avons apprécié le coté douillet de ce cocon , le fait d être dans le quartier typique des Cuevas, l accès parfait à pied pour visiter la ville, être à coté d une bonne petite boulangerie pour aller chercher le petit déjeuner à pied et la vue sur la forteresse, en deux mots une vue de fou et une cuisine correcte permettant de faire à manger même si elle est toute petite . Équiper un peu plus la cuisine de sel poivre huile d olive un torchon et un plaid par chambre
- Ramon (10/5): Ideal - La ubicación y las instalaciones increíbles La zona para poder aparcar
- Rob (9/5): -
- Anne-Lies (8/5): -
- Sandra (10/5): Eine sehr spezielle und wunderschöne Unterkunft - Es war eine ganz spezielle Unterkunft mit viel Charme. Alles war so wunderschön eingerichtet. Nichts!
- Sonia (10/5): Cuevas maravillosas - El alojamiento es tal y como se ve en las fotos. Es una maravilla, todo limpio y cuidado. Se ve toda Guadix y está en el mismo barrio de las cuevas. El propietario nos ayudó en todo lo que necesitamos. Nada, todo ha sido como esperábamos.
- Gata (8/5): -
- Maria Lourdes (7/5): Bien - La decoración de la cueva tiene mucho encanto y tiene de todo lo necesario para pasar unos días El WIFI de 5 veces que intentas usarlo funciona 1,5. Nosotros nos quedamos en la Cueva 2 y tiene varias partes con humedad y zonas incluso con algo de moho que creemos que puede arreglarse y volver a pintarse.
- Wegmann (7/5): -
- Tracey (10/5): - amazing property will definitely come back and stay longer in this property
bedroom bathroom kitchen all immaculate and tasteful decoration no internet
- Rutger (10/5): Spectacular place - Spectacular place. Beautiful, well designed, cave rooms. Even better than in the the pictures. We have had the top appartment (cave 3) so no swimming pool like the others, but what a view we had! From the coach in the livingroom we can see the castle trough the window and from the terras we can see the snowy mountains in the background. If you walk up the stairs, you can treat yourselves on a 360° view over the whole city. Be minded that the driveway is very steep. We just made it with our (weak) car. You can leave the car next to the road, but we didn't felt safe to leave it there with all our stuff in it.
- Jose Carlos (7/5): Cueva muy bonita, comoda y con unas vistas impresionantes. - La ubicación esta muy lejos del centro de Guadix, y el acceso a las cuevas es dificil por la rampa que tiene . Que la empresa no ponga carteles indicadores de la ubicación de las Cuevas.
- Pablo (9/5): -
- Sabeth (10/5): - It's just wonderful. We came back for the second time already.
- M Del Carmen (10/5): -
- Bea (9/5): - Hele nette, schone accommodatie. Sfeervol ingericht. Ruime kamers. Uitgebreide keukeninventaris. Grote en warme douche. Plaids en elektrische kachel aanwezig voor koudere avonden. Ruime voortuin + zwembad aanwezig. Parkeergelegenheid bij de accommodatie. Vriendelijke host.
- Jonathan (10/5): Perfect Cave House - The location and view is perfect, the Cave itself was comfortable and cosy. The town itself is beautiful and there are lots to see within walking distance. Parking is not great if you have a big car, that is to be expected for the location. Be careful to plan this before you go and the owner was happy to help with any issues. However, it did not take away from the experience.
- M Dolores (10/5): Increíble estancia - Todo. El sitio es precioso y está decorado con mucho gusto. Es cómodo, agradable y tiene una ubicación excelente. Puedes ir andado al centro sin ningún problema. La temperatura de la cueva es increíble, hacía mal tiempo fuera pero dentro se estaba estupendamente. Lo recomendamos 100% y volveremos otra vez seguro. Por decir algo, que no tuviera aceite, sal o azúcar. Se nos olvidó llevarnos aceite y para unas tostadas tampoco íbamos a comprar una botella.
- Blanca (9/5): Una experiencia en familia - Cuevas nuevas. Vistas magníficas, cuevas al detalle y muy acogedoras. La comunicación con el propietario muy buena.
- ERIC (9/5): Superbe location atypique, extrêmement confortable. - Logement atypique très joliment rénové, spacieux, confortable, avec un extérieur très agréable offrant une vue à 360 degrés sur la ville et ses alentours. Superbe ! Quelques produits de base pour la cuisine manquaient (sel, poivre huile ...).
- Danielooo (9/5): Beautiful refurbished cave house in the midst of Guadix caves neighbour - Cave was refurbished and finely decorated. Huge TV with Netflix, internet works very well. Beds are comfty. Views from the hill top where the cave is located are awesome, you can see downtown, badlands and Sierra Nevada range. Host is very helpful. Lots of things to visit in the surroundings (desierto de Gorafe, badlands, Sierra Nevada...) Bathroom smells funny. There's a steep ramp to access de cave, if your car is not high enough it will hit the ground. Living room sofa is for 3 people only. A curtain in the door would have been apreciated for privacy. Beware of google maps directions, it gets crazy in the neightbourhood
- Eric (9/5): Parfait et dépaysant - Emplacement
- Irene (10/5): -
- Jorge (10/5): Ubicación excepcional y con un gran valor arquitectónico. - La ubicación es excepcional, tienes una panorámica del pueblo preciosa.
- Cecilia Raquel (10/5): -
- Unai (10/5): Sitio perfecto para desconcertar y sentirte súper como en un ambiente diferente - El cuidado de todos los detalles era excelente Nada
- Marta (10/5): -
- Daniel (10/5): -
- Dunja (9/5): Überrascht zu sehen, was aus einer Höhle gemacht werden kann. Aussergewöhnlich schön. - Räumlichkeiten und Ausstattungen sehr modern und einladend. Gemütlich! Anstandslos.
- Sarah (9/5): Lovely cave house, friendly host, great bathroom. - Clean and surprisingly spacious with a lovely bathroom. Parking just outside the property - maybe 50 metres to take suitcases from car to cave but it is uphill and gravel so be prepared to lift rather than wheel/drag. One bedroom had a window with only a thin roll-up blind so by morning the room was flooded in light. The other bedroom is set into the cave with no window so not an issue.
- Merja (10/5): Trevligt att uppleva att bo i en grotta. - Grottan var väldigt smakfullt inredd med många fina detaljer.
Det var toppenstädat . Det var svårt att få golvvärmen att fungera men det fanns ett flyttbart element som vi använde oss av.
- Iñaki (10/5): -
- JOHAN (10/5): -
- Natasha (9/5): Love the architecture of the cave house, the church chime and the surrounding landscape - Staying at Cave House It rained and we couldn't really get food!
- Canty (10/5): - Tout, l'emplacement, la décoration, la vue. La pluie mais malgré ça nous avons adoré notre séjour.
- Fabrice (9/5): -
- nathalie (10/5): Logement atypique superbe pour découvrir les badlands - Emplacement et vue, logement atypique et superbe Peut être laisser qq condiments type sel vinaigre.
- Lita (10/5): - Magic place for a mountain getaway. House by itself is beautifully designed, very comfortable and cozy, located in the historical part of the cave city. All 10 points goes to hosts :)
Breathtaking surroundings, similar to the Great Canyon.
- Myriam (10/5): Einzigartiges Erlebnis mit Traumaussicht! - Stilvoll eingerichtet. Überraschend gross und ein einzigartiges Erlebis. —
- Petra (8/5): - Ausstattung der Küche: 1 geschirrhandtuch wäre hilfreich und eventuell 2 zusätzliche Töpfe . Vielleicht noch Weingläser
- Petra (8/5): - Etwas mehr Ausstattung der Küche: Geschirrhandtuch, 2 Töpfe zusätzlich, vielleicht weingläser
- Andy (8/5): - Well equipped cave. Nicely decorated. Parking outside. Short walk to town. Great size Only 1 hand towel provided. Blinds didn’t shut completely in bedrooms which might be a problem in the summer with early sun rise.
- Thom (9/5): Een unieke overnachting - De algehele indruk van de grot Keukeninboel had beter gekund. Zo miste we bijvoorbeeld een hand en theedoek.
- Natalia (9/5): - Ángel muy atento, incluso nos avisó de que podiamos entrar antes a la cueva.
Limpieza perfecta.
Tranquilidad de los alrededores y de la zona de la cueva.
Muy buenas vistas.
Muy bien cuidada la cueva.
- COMPAGNON (9/5): - Un etat irreprochable et une vue a couper le souffle - pour le gite no2 - Attention il y en a 3 - difficile d'avoir une plus belle disposition. Acces parking pour motards aguerris voie d'acces tres pentue. Passé ce point delicat tout simplement EXCEPTIONNEL ! Le descriptif booking/proprio qui ne precise pas que cela concerne 3 gites différents empiles qui sont equipes differemment - pas de piscine pr no3 - ce qui implique a l'arrivée une controverse polemique lors de l'attribution.
- Rob (10/5): Schitterende locatie - De unieke accomodatie/ locatie, het fenomenale uitzicht over Guadix en het zwembadje dat zorgt voor aangename verkoeling niks
- Alvaro (9/5): -
- LÓPEZ MELLE (10/5): Excepcional - La decoración preciosa, el dueño muy amable
- Eva (10/5): - La ubicación, No teníamos la barbacoa y el propietario no nos la facilitó en toda la semana
- Sonia (7/5): Estancia en Guadix - El interior de la cueva está al detalle y tiene todo lo que necesitas. La piscina parecía más grande y profunda en las fotos.
- Juan carlos (10/5): - Casa Cueva muy còmoda y decorada con gusto.Atención por parte de Ángel perfecta. Nada?
- Beata (10/5): -
- Gerald (9/5): -
- Cristina (10/5): Escapada perfecta para descansar!! - El diseño de la cueva, la decoración con tanto gusto, espaciosa y bonita. Las camas cómodas, todo muy limpio. Un buen porche con una mesa y sombrilla para pasar la tarde allí, junto a una pequeña piscina donde podías refrescarte. Aunque está en el mismo Guadix, está en alto y se respira tranquilidad y mucha paz. En la casa número 3, la tele no se veía a ratos, parece que a veces no llegaba la señal. Los bordes de la piscina de la casa 1 necesitan una mano de pintura, por poner un pero.
- Steve (8/5): Very good -
- Dariusz (9/5): Superb - Clean, silence, it was safe, very good contact with the host, parking place, good location. View
- Alessandra (10/5): Stylish cueva with top-notch architectural restyling, in spectacular surroundings - Wow! We stayed at Cave No 3 and loved every detail, especially the architectural restyling inside and the stunning 350-degree spectacular views outside! We found the beds very comfortable, the atmosphere wonderful, clean, dry, peefect temperature, absolutely no bad smell or mouldy corners, everything was 100% beautiful and functional and welcoming. It went beyond our expectations!
- Jo (10/5): Exceptional - Well designed, comfortable and unique. A lovely place to stay. The owner was very helpful.
- Kay (10/5): Guadix is a must stop, and the cave house is perfect! - The location was spectacular! Wonderful views outside, and every accommodation one needs on the inside. I am sorry we only had time for a one night stay. This property is excellent- a perfect way to experience Guadix. A few smaller towels could be added, otherwise, don't change a thing!!
- Kevin (10/5): Fantastic cave house 5***** - Location was perfect.
The style of the property was fantastic, the under-floor heating was a real bonus.
The wifi was around 75-85 Mbs and very stable.
Settee and beds were very comfy.
The bathroom was huge and the shower was very good The kitchen could have an extra light installed where the extractor fan is to allow more cooking light.
There could be a larger frying pan.
There was an iron but no ironing board that we could find
But these are small points that did not detract from a great stay
- Ritz (7/5): Fantastic experience in luxury cave - Good interior design Not to mention any. Can put bit of tea bags and breakfast delivery, like bed & breakfast would be amazing.
- Steve (9/5): Superb - fantastic cave house.
Very good owner helpful and great knowledge of the area. Amazing views from property and decorated to a high standard. No Internet.
Very hilly and distant to the centre but to be expected as its a cave house!
- Philippa (10/5): A memorable stay in a totally unique setting - Totally unique
Beautifully restored and executed
Decoration inspired!
The bathroom and kitchen were smart and very well equipped
Large fridge
