Hotel la Fuente de la Higuera

We traveled to Ronda after a couple of busy days in Madrid and Seville. What a wonderful experience at this hotel!! Beautiful room (we had room #2), gorgeous, peaceful property and outstanding service!!! We traveled by train but it was easy to call for a cab to and from the town center. A magical experience!!

Small boutique hotel hidden away in the countryside with wonderful views, this somewhat hidden gem was the perfect launch pad to visit Ronda and its environs. Lovely food, delightful service, spacious room … the perfect setting for a relaxing evening and good night’s sleep after visiting the various towns, villages and countryside in the locality. We found a discerning clientele staying at this hotel, and it was a delight to exchange with others as we enjoyed our evenings. We would definitely go back !

We were looking for a nice, small hotel outside Ronda where we could relax and enjoy a more rural setting while still being close to town. This was perfect. While Ronda was a wonderful town to explore I don't think you need to spend the night there. You can see it all in a half day. We had a beautiful room with a canopy bed, a lovely outdoor space will views across the valley. I personally loved the decor. We stayed for two nights and had breakfast and dinner there both days. The food was very good. There are no tv's in the rooms which was just fine for us. We had a fireplace which we used one night. It was lovely but did find it a bit smoky in our room so we opted not to use it the second night. I loved that they had a selection of games available in the common areas which we took advantage of, as well as a vast collection of CD's which we could play in the dining room and in our room. That was a nice touch. The pool looked really nice though it was too cold for swimming (for us). The only piece of constructive feedback I'd give is that I wish they had a list of hikes and/or bike rides readily available. (with maps.) and perhaps other things to do in the area. They did give us suggestions but it was a bit off the cuff. On their website, I remember seeing that they offered guided walks and bike rides but nobody mentioned that when we were there. There was no sign of any bikes available to use either though we didn't ask so perhaps they were there. All in all, I would defiantly recommend this hotel.

From our arrival to a party celebrating their 25th anniversary to breakfast on our last day overlooking the stunning view, we loved our stay here. We splashed out on a suite and it was stunning - private sunbathing balcony, gorgeous sitting room, and ultra comfortable bed. The food is excellent and the feel of the hotel is like staying with friends. Easy drive into Ronda but I can see how you could happily stay on site and just enjoy the peace and luxury!

We enjoyed 3 beautiful days in La Fuente De La Higuera. Too good to recommend. We would prefer to keep this hotel a secret for us. Surrounded all the time by nice people you don't want to leave this place. Here you find a peaceful place where you can simply dive in and relax.

What a treat it was to spend a weekend here (full board!) even though we could not go see Ronda, which was the purpose of the trip. Ronda was inaccessible because of a huge biking event, but we did not regret coming here! The views, the food, the room, the warm welcome from Laura, the incredible scenery, Grazalema, the smell of the countryside, all wonderful. Go here in spring if you love nature (and don't mind a few insects…a sign of environmental health!)
