    The apartment was exactly as described so accurately portrayed and met expectations. Aircon worked very well. Equipment was somewhat different in style but overall good.

    Borja is a fantastic manager for Koala. Great communication and super helpful. We had an accident while in Tarif, Borja went out of his way to help us, making sure we are comfortable and have everything we need. It was very touching to see Borja...

    Rooms and outside space were very unusual. We did have the outside space to ourselves though so not sure how we would’ve felt if sharing.

    The property was extremely clean, hidden away on a small quiet street in tarifa, just a few minutes from the beach and the dock. The terrace on the roof was super cool and a perfect spot for a morning coffee!! Alfonso was one of the most helpful...

Property information

Our Apartments are built on a 300 year old house building in the heart of Tarifa’s Old Town, at around 25m from San Mateo’s Church, in a very narrow Street for pedestrians only. The entrance leads you to a small andalusian typical patio, surrounded by the appartments on different levels and invaded by quietness. The “Little houses” are spread out on 3 floors and the access to the superior levels is by the original stairway. Due to the structure of the building every appatment has different shape and dimensions, and therefore different style. Some of them will guide you to the nice back garden (something very unusual on those type of old houses). Others will take you to the small roof top terrace, where you can relax while sunbathing or read when the wind doesn’t allow to lay on the beach… The original ownwers tried to make of this “neighbourhood of tiny houses” a cozy relaxing place where guests could feel like home during their stay; at present this is our main mission… Wellcome to a real break…
