Los Castaños is a charming little hotel situated in quiet, historic Cartajima - a relaxed, sophisticated hideaway in the middle of a tiny Andalucian pueblo blanco. Elegance within, tradition without.

Enjoy a warm welcome by resident proprietors (Di and Lu), sumptuous Western Mediterranean cuisine, and step back in history as you explore Phoenician, Roman, Moorish, and Christian Spain. 

A restful place to stay, only 16 km from bustling historic Ronda, and conveniently located for Sevilla, Cordoba, Granada, Cadiz, and Jerez - the romantic cities of Andalucia.

In the heart of Cartajima, next to the church and the Town Hall, is Los Castaños where we emphasize quality and comfort. Enjoy our rooftop terrace and plunge pool. Curl up by a roaring fire with a good book from the library. Sip a cocktail in the Moorish courtyard. Chat with the neighbours, always eager to meet a new face.

Walk to the next village and indulge in a strong coffee or a cold beer before setting off to discover what other simple pleasures are on offer. 

Each of our six en suite rooms is harmoniously decorated with a sumptuous king-size bed and comfortable Spanish rocking armchairs where you can let the stress dissolve away as you gaze out at the peaceful views. 

Each room has a traditional balcony – soak up the morning sun while enjoying your first cup of freshly ground coffee.

About Cartajima: 

The glories of the Andalucian hinterland await the discerning traveler: magnificent cities with their Arab mosques and Gothic cathedrals, quiet untrampled villages where strangers are greeted with smiling curiosity, landscapes ranging from peaceful olive groves to forbidding mountains.
