My wife and I are returning for our fourth visit in the past three years to Cutar & Vivasiesta, warmly hosted by John and Judy (J&J).

Because of its location and diversity in recreational activities, each of our vacations has been an entirely different experience. This is the reason that we continue to return to our favourite little hideaway.

Whether it is lazing with a book and a cerveza on a sunny afternoon in the olive groves, hiking in the foothills that overlook the Mediterranean and the many "white villages" of the area, a scenic flight at the local airport, or a visit to any one of the historic cities and towns (Cordoba, Granada, Sevilla, Malaga, Ronda); whatever your taste, there is something for you in Cutar with J&J.

As for the accommodations and the local amenities, the casitas are well appointed and always spotless. The view from the terrace alone is worth the trip. They are fully equipped and spacious if you wish to dine in. J&J are always happy to lend a helping hand and/or some guidance in the event that you require something not at hand. Shopping is close by for anything you may need. The local villagers are warm, friendly and inviting.

I think perhaps that the thing I find most satisfying in our vacations is the love and pride that John and Judy have for Cutar and their willingness to share their extensive knowledge of the area. They infuse their passion directly into our vacation experience. They are truly lovely and exceptional hosts and you will be lucky to know them.
