What guests say

“Elena was a great host and the flat was really spacious, with great communal areas (kitchen and lounge) in addition to a lovely bedroom and grand bathroom! Super location to walk into Puerto Banus along the sea front. Really good experience.”

“Everything was very good. Very happy indeed.”

“Hi Elena, thank you for hosting me. You made my stay very comfortable in a beautiful and safe place with security at the entrance. Also the possibility to have a parking place in the garage is great. Room, kitchen, living room, terrace and swimming pool are great. Hope to come back soon. Take care.”

“Elena was a magnificent host! She responded very quickly, was very accommodating to our needs and requests, and always so warm and friendly, and Yuki her amazing dog was the cutest. Check-in instructions were super detailed and helpful, and Elena met us personally on arrival to explain everything and gave us a tour of the penthouse. The apartment was exceptional: very spacious, clean and well stocked with all the necessities. The amenities were amazing, spotlessly clean bathroom and kitchen, a spectacular pool to lie by, sunbeds on the terrace and outdoor dining experiences were incredible. Absolute luxury. We could not have asked for a better location, a few minutes walk to the beach and boardwalk which led you to the fabulous resorts of San Pedro or Puerto Banus. We felt so safe as there are security gates and the guards were always so welcoming. An absolute gem of a find, and I could not recommend Elena's six-star accommodation enough. Will be back soon!”

“A wonderful option if you want to stay within walking distance of Puerto Banus and the San Pedro boulevard!”

“We had a wonderful time at Elena's. She is an incredibly warm, attentive and helpful host. From the first moment we felt welcome and in good hands. The apartment was not only very clean and lovingly furnished, but also perfectly equipped with everything you need. A special highlight was of course Yuki, Elena's lovable dog! So friendly, playful and well behaved, he took our hearts by storm. Anyone who likes dogs will love Yuki. The location was excellent too: quiet, but still well connected, and Elena had great tips for restaurants, excursions and local secrets. We can absolutely recommend staying with Elena and Yuki, and we will definitely come back. Thank you for everything, Elena, and please give Yuki a stroke from us!”

“Comfortable, very clean and great location. Elena is a great host!”

“I had a fantastic weekend staying in Elena's private room in her beautiful apartment in Marbella, Puerto Banus. From the moment I arrived, Elena was incredibly warm and welcoming, instantly making me feel at home. The room was spotless and comfortable, with the added bonus of a private bathroom. Guests also have access to the fully equipped kitchen, which includes everything you might need to cook, plus a Nespresso machine, a great touch for all my fellow coffee lovers! The apartment is in a prime central location, just a short walk to beaches, restaurants and bars. Puerto Banus is only about 15 minutes away via a scenic beachside path, making it easy to explore the area without needing a car. If you are looking for a well-located, affordable place to stay in Marbella without compromising on comfort or amenities, I would highly recommend Elena's place. It was the perfect base for my weekend getaway!”

“Would love to come again and stay longer. The apartment is just adorable, Elena is very kind and the dog is just fantastic. It was a pleasant stay in a place where we felt at home. Would highly recommend.”

“Staying here was a real pleasure! The room is cosy, very clean and exactly as described. Everything is organised with guests in mind, from fresh bed linen to little touches like coffee, tea and shower gel. Fast Wi-Fi, air conditioning, comfortable to sleep in, and the area is quiet and convenient. A special thank you to Elena, our host. She is simply wonderful: very warm, responsive and attentive. She welcomed us like old friends, explained everything in detail, was always reachable and made our arrival as comfortable as possible. If you are looking for a place with soul, book without hesitation. I would gladly stay here again!”

“Amazing host, jaw-dropping, stunning property. Would highly recommend.”

“The room with its own extremely generous bathroom, and the shared kitchen, dining and living area, is more than top class. Not forgetting the wonderful setting of the terrace. Communication with Elena was perfect. Only five minutes on foot to the beach. Happy to return.”

“Elena is a great host. Very responsive and accommodating. The apartment is also very nice and clean. Great value.”

“Have stayed in many Airbnbs over the years but this was our first where it was a room instead of an entire space. Made no difference, really. A fantastic stay with everything we needed in a great location, with comfortable amenities and accommodations.”

“The most wonderful host and house. Great hospitality!”

“Very nice apartment and a great host! 5/5 stars.”

“Amazing place to stay! Me and my girlfriend loved it, Elena was very kind and her dog was the best!”

“Thank you for hosting us.”

“I stayed at Elena's house. She was a fantastic host, welcoming, always ready to help us and give advice if necessary. The house is very nice and clean, and it is located in a residential complex with many services! I absolutely recommend it.”

“We had an amazing stay at this apartment. It looked even better than the photos, very modern and equipped with everything we needed. The location was perfect, just a 5-minute walk to the sea and a 20-minute stroll to Puerto Banus. Elena was a very hospitable host, always ready to help. Our rating: 100 out of 100.”

“Our stay at Elena's place was one to remember and cherish for a long time. The apartment, the vibe, the location, the facilities and comfort, but most importantly Elena herself and her lovely dog Yuki, offered us such an amazing stay and lovely experience. We even extended our stay by a few more days and we will definitely be back soon. Everything in the apartment is wonderful and clean and even though it is shared we had a great sense of privacy, respect and calm. It is situated in a beautiful and quiet residential part yet so close to the beach and all the great spots of Marbella. Not only did we have an amazing stay in the apartment, we also made great friends with Elena, who is a wonderful person. If you are up for an ultimate lovely stay we highly recommend Elena's apartment.”

“Elena's place is really high-end. She is a fantastic host and the apartment was nicer than any of the local hotels and far cheaper, in lovely surroundings and with a nice pool. Definitely recommend it to all.”

“Elena, it was an enormous pleasure to be a guest in your home. Beautiful interiors throughout the apartment. Luxury, a lovely subtle scent, space, and your openness and hospitality set your offering apart from the rest. Everything was perfect.”

“A very friendly host. The room is very beautiful. We would come again!”

“The penthouse is sublime, the residence is magnificent with security and indoor parking. Perfect bedding, with Hastens pillows (the best in the world). The bathroom is incredible, with a very large bath. I recommend Elena 100 percent, she is a woman of class and great manners. The price is excellent because what you get is very luxurious. Hard to find better!”

“Thank you Elena for your impeccable hospitality, discretion, cleanliness and kindness. Truly an excellent host! Thanks again!”

“Elena is a very hospitable and friendly hostess.”

“Elena is an available, flexible and responsive host. The accommodation matches the description perfectly. It is comfortable and fully equipped. The large terrace of the apartment and the pool of the residence are a real plus, as is the proximity to the beach and to the port of Puerto Banus (20 minutes on foot along the sea).”

“It was a perfect stay and everything is how it is described. Very good place and everything worked without a problem. Very nice and friendly.”

“Very beautiful apartment next to the sea. The room is big and very nicely decorated. Check-in and communication were very good and easy. We received a warm welcome and were spoiled with a good breakfast on the beautiful terrace before leaving. Thank you so much Elena for everything! We really enjoyed it and felt very comfortable. Hope to be back again soon.”

“Wonderful. We spent a fabulous few days. A very welcoming, peaceful house, very well located, with every comfort. A very pretty house, beautifully decorated. You could not ask for anything more. Thank you so much to Elena.”

“We thank Elena for the hospitality, a beautiful clean room with a bar and a large balcony. Everything has been thought of, right down to the details. She was helpful and very friendly, and gave us some useful tips. Thank you Elena, until next time.”

“Awesome place, very affordable and luxurious at the same time.”

“Loads of Airbnbs in Banus, whole apartments and so on, but you will not find many double rooms of this value. I was cycling in the hills so did not want to pay five-star prices. But this accommodation was larger and much better than my wife and daughter's supposedly five-star accommodation at the nearby Hotel Guadalpin. Elena is very friendly, has a spotlessly clean apartment and leaves you to your privacy. Good job Elena.”

“The best accommodation in the world. So fresh and so lovely. A freshly made bed (which was also incredibly comfortable), a gleaming, newly cleaned bathroom, and toothbrushes, shampoo, conditioner and so on were all provided. Very much appreciated. It felt so clean, and as soon as we walked into the home we felt at home immediately. Elena was very kind. Both of us had got sunburnt, which Elena noticed, and she came back with products and creams from the pharmacy. We did not see Elena very often either, it felt as though we had the place entirely to ourselves. A lovely home and a wonderful location within walking distance of everything. Thanks to Elena and her lovely home, the whole stay was 11 out of 10.”

“Everything excellent. The place is incredible, it has everything, super clean, luxurious and beautiful. Nothing bad to say. 10 out of 10.”

“Elena was a superb host, everything was clean, everything was perfect. There is nothing more to add.”

“Super apartment in a very beautiful and peaceful place.”

“I stayed in Elena's en-suite room in her penthouse for a week during mid-September. The accommodation was luxurious, but homely and peaceful with a tropical ambience. I enjoyed walking to San Pedro in the morning for the gym and breakfast. Playa Nueva Andalucia was my favourite closest beach. Proximity to the bus stop made my trips to Marbella easy. I also spent a day in Ronda from San Pedro, which I highly recommend. I barely saw Elena but when I did she was very kind and amicable, and her pets were equally friendly. I also enjoyed using her kitchen and eating by her terrace. I rarely make the effort to write reviews; this Airbnb has made my holiday. Thank you Elena.”

“Stunning home, friendly host and great location, only a couple of minutes from Puerto Banus. The room was amazing and extremely clean and equipped with everything I needed. Elena was helpful and made our check-in process very smooth. The house is very big and has outstanding facilities you are free to use. Do not hesitate to book this, we had a fantastic time!”

“A really, really lovely place to stay. We felt very much at home and Elena was a superb host. She took such kind care of us and no hotel stay would have been this good. The apartment is in a good location and is beautifully furnished. Her dog Yuki is very sweet too. We will definitely come again.”

“The place is amazing and Elena was very supportive and helpful.”

“Elena is a fantastic and generous host and the apartment has everything you can ask for. Excellent!”

“Everything perfect. Elena is very kind and makes the stay in her magnificent home even better than expected. I will be back.”

“In one word: wonderful. From the location to Elena herself, we had a fantastic holiday thanks in large part to her. Communication is excellent, and even if you arrive late and leave late, as we did, she makes sure she is there for you. Nothing was too much trouble, and we were welcome to use everything. The location was superb; we walked to Puerto Banus along the beach to eat and it was very manageable. We also had a hire car which we could keep in her garage. We will definitely be back. Elena, thank you for everything. PS if you are an animal lover, the cats and the dog are fantastic too. We will certainly miss them.”

“The easiest five stars of my life. I really enjoyed every moment there, I felt like I was at home. Where can I start? The five-star room, cosy, fully comfortable bed, a private fridge, the air conditioning, the warm private terrace with sunbeds, the great location, private parking, all was perfect. Elena, what a kind woman! She was always there when I needed anything. She is the kindest host I have ever stayed with, she even helped me iron my clothes. I cannot thank her enough, and I am really happy that I met people like her. Also her nice dog and the two cats. Hope to come back again.”

Rated five stars, no words left.

“If you are looking for a really nice place to stay during your holiday or business trip to the Marbella area, Elena's place might just be it! This very nice, clean and organised place has it all. You get your own room with a large luxury bathroom, your own fridge and a big terrace to enjoy the sun. You can use the living room and the big, very well equipped kitchen too. The surroundings are beautiful and green and you have a 3-minute walk to the beach, which also has a boardwalk with restaurants and cafes, all the way to Marbella past Puerto Banus, which is very close by. Elena herself is the perfect host, very kind, helpful and quick to answer any question you might have. My full five-star recommendation!”

“Elena is an exceptional host. I could not recommend this Airbnb any more highly. It is immaculate with a beautiful balcony, and in an ideal position. Could not recommend more, a 10/10 experience.”

“All was good. The room was spacious, with a terrace. We had access to a beautiful kitchen and living room. The host was always available for any questions and support.”
