    A wonderful, querky, comfortable, peaceful, spotlessly clean little hideaway. We especially liked the secluded and relaxing courtyard, We had a wonderful time there, and looked forward to coming back every day, at the end of the day. Will come again.

We both Love meeting people and do everything to make our guests stay as pleasant as possible.
ARTEstación is situated in the Train Station in Álora. Therefore you can easily acces us by Train, from Málaga Airport etc. The Neighbourhood is set in a Lemon Field and next to the Gualdahorce River. There are busses up to Town and you can also walk to shops and Bars from here. Lovely View of the Old Morish Castle.
