Wonderful stay at La Fructuosa.

This hotel is a comfortable oasis in the wonderful village of Gaucin. It has a long history of accommodating guests and under these new owners has been upgraded to include good wifi and a wonderful restaurant on the main level. The room was beautifully decorated and looked out over the mountain range and towards the rest of Gaucin. Breakfast buffet each morning was delicious with freshly baked croissants and a host of other offerings. The staff was very friendly and accommodating throughout our stay. Highly recommended!

Lovely hotel - and very welcoming.

Daniel and Catherine were very welcoming and made us feel very much at home. Our room was very clean and tastefully furnished. The staff - particularly Pilar - were friendly and extremely helpful. The restaurant was excellent. What more is there to say? 😊

This location is a hidden gem just up the mountain from Marbella. We happened to stay on their gastronomic weekend when all restaurants participate in what we would call in the states "restaurant week". Daniel, the manager/owner kept us well informed for our arrival. Staff, Pilar in particular, was wonderful. Very accommodating. The restaurant at the hotel had fabulous food and wonderful breakfast buffet with fresh made croissants. The only issue is parking if you have a car. Spaces near the hotel are very limited and for compact cars. We did find a spot about 3 minutes walk from the hotel. We would go back in a heartbeat to explore the town of Gaucin.

A gift from the Andalusian hotel Gods

As an ex bbc travel journalist, I’ve had the privilege and pleasure of staying in many hotels around this beautiful planet. I can honestly say La Fructuosa is up there. Small simple yet magical. It truely is a gift from the Andalusian Gods of Gaucin. Everything owners Catherine and Daniel have done during renovations a few years ago has been stylishly and artisticly achieved with a beautiful duvet of love. My one disappointment is that I only got to page 5 of the short Basil Faultyesk book Daniel wrote during lockdown. It’s very funny!! A good reason to go back and finish it. Bravo to the Belgium couple for creating something so special 🙏

Unique walkable town of Gaucín, but the charm was all with the hotel and friendly staff! Stopped here for two nights on our honeymoon visiting southern Spain and it’s so worth it. Plan ahead and book some reservations for restaurants in town as well, that was our one mistake as things fill up! Amazing experience and can’t wait to come back!
