Fountainhead - Hotel in Málaga
Partido del Río el Terral
Fuente la Camacha, 29180 Riogordo, Málaga
Andalusia,
España
A mere 15 miles from Málaga, Sierra de Camarolos unfolds behind an unadulterated scene of olive groves and almond trees; the peace is incredible. A giant cork oak marks your entry onto the walled patio and a covered walkway leads you to your own casita, bordered by wildflowers and trim cacti. These four casitas - Indian, Sultan, Oriental, Arizona - have been conceived with zen-like lines.
Slippers and robes are provided, and there's even a mini cinema room and honesty bar exclusively for guests in the Oriental suite. The fridge is packed full of goodies from Manchego cheese to strawberries, while hot croissants and fresh bread are delivered to your door each morning. There's a yoga pavilion, gym and meditation space, a unique sunken bathhouse where you can have a Dead Sea salt soak, massage or treatment.
Their harvests produce organic olive oil, botanicals, almonds, soap and spa products. The food is simply fabulous too.
