Meticulously clean, spacious room and public areas in a beautiful wooded hillside setting with lovely views. Our hosts, Alec and Cristina, were gracious, helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. The breakfasts and dinners they prepared were brilliant, with them happily accommodating both vegetarians and omnivores! Exceptional experience, most highly recommended

Beautiful setting and the perfect city escape!
The Finca is perfectly situated to easily get around the Sierra de la Aracena. The place itself is beautiful and very calming. It feels quite intimate yet comfortable and Cristina and Alec are wonderful hosts. They arranged a number of day trips for us to a ham producer and mushroom foraging and Alec is a fantastic chef so be sure to try dinner there!

Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful time at this fantastic finca. The evening meal, cooked by Alex was delicious and the breakfast very tasty.The bedrooms were very large and the bed was big and very comfortable. The views from the terrace of the restaurant were stunning and the location, high up in the mountains was perfect.

The hotel is situated in a magical setting, high in the mountains with fabulous views. Excellent large room, lovely dining and sitting rooms (with log fire on chilly evenings) and outside patio. We were warmly greeted by Alec, also a talented chef, and Charles was a delightful host. Homemade jams and marmelades, quince jelly and yoghurt, water from the well - thoroughly recommended for a special holiday.

Understated and welcoming, with great food!
We loved our two nights at Finca La Fronda. It is in a lovely, secluded spot with long distance views. The location is perfect for walkers, as there is an extensive network of trails accessible direct from the hotel The welcome at Finca la Fronda is very personal from Christina and her brother Alex (and father, Charles). Alex does all the cooking, and the dinners we had at the hotel suited us perfectly. There is no choice - just well-cooked, unfussy food using good quality ingredients. Breakfasts feature homemade cakes, jams (there is a jam menu!) and yoghurt. There are two terraces that catch the morning and evening sun. The reception areas and bedrooms are understated and comfortable. If you have the chance, try the musical evening at the week-end - great fun! Dinner is taken in the sitting room with an excellent musician playing songs chosen by the guests. The evening we went, the musician nimbly swapped between Spanish and English, as well as playing a huge range of music.

Your hotel search ends here...
When we could not find an satisfactory apartment in the area, we opted for Finca la Fronda as a fall back option...Boy are we glad it worked out this way!!!...We would never have gotten to know the area the way we did had we not had the information provided by the co-owner Christina...the meals (in-house and in area restaurants) and hikes she laid out for us to were more interesting than many we have experienced on guided hiking tours we have spent fortunes on. The Saturday night dinner with a cabaret concert provided by her husband was great fun. We are a very reserved lesbian couple but somehow Christina and her brother (co-owner) always made us feel like we were a part of their celebration of life after we returned from our exciting days of exploring this beautiful slice. Oh and the rooms and communal living room were most inviting...I should also mention that breakfast and their optional in-house dinners were sumptuously devoted to local organic produce.

Schönes Hotel in Traumlage! Exzellenter Service!
Liebevoll gestaltet mit so persönlichem Service, dass eir gerne länger geblieben wären. Wir fühlten uns von Beginn an swr wohl. Sehr geräumige Zimmer mit bequemen Betten. Die Hahre sind zwar nicht komplett spurlos am Hotel vorüber gezogen aber dank der Aufnerksamkeit der Eigrntümer Ctistina und Alec und der Liebe zum Detail, fallen Kleinigkeiten nicht ins Gewicht. Sehr gutes und leckeres Frühstück! Die Umgebung und die Lage ded Hotels sind ein Traum!

Maravillosa experiencia
Estancia maravillosa, un oasis de relax y tranquilidad para desconectar en plena naturaleza. Sensacional trato por parte de Alec y Cristina, propietarios del hotel. Magnífica la experiencia de "cenando canciones" con el espectáculo de Oscar Rivilla. Ninguna pega a toda la estancia. Nos fuimos con ganas de permanecer más tiempo.

Buscábamos tranquilidad y sosiego y el lugar encajó a la perfección. El alojamiento está en el alto de un cerro con vistas al pueblo de Alájar y a la Peña Arias Montano con excepcionales vistas. El acceso al alojamiento se realiza desde la carretera HU-8105 desde donde una señal nos indica un camino cuesta arriba entre alcornocales que nos lleva hasta la casa. Debido al momento que estábamos pasando (covid-19) las medidas sanitarias obligaban a que los desayunos no estuvieron a la altura de lo que esperábamos. Encontré falta de mantenimiento de las zonas ajardinadas, (césped, plantas). A la piscina de igual forma, le faltaba un poco de mantenimiento. Eché en falta papeleras en todo el recinto lo que obligaba a llevar una simple lata vacía de refresco hasta la habitación y tirarla allí. La limpieza de la habitación era a diario, excelente. El colchón muy bueno y enorme. La llave que nos entregaron que abría el acceso a las zonas comunes para poder tomar un café o permanecer en el Salón no abría, lo que nos impidió disfrutar de todo lo que ofrecía el establecimiento En resumen, aunque el alojamiento tiene pequeñas carencias que se pueden corregir fácilmente, nuestra estancia fue muy agradable. Gracias Cristina

El hotel está situado en un entorno natural que transmite una gran sensación de tranquilidad, disponiendo de buenas vistas a la sierra de Aracena. Las instalaciones están bien decoradas, limpias y en muy buen estado. El personal es muy amable y familiar. Algunos sábados tienen cenas con música en directo que merece la pena disfrutar.

Hotel en un entorno fantástico
Destacaríamos las atenciones y profesionalidad del personal del hotel. Te hacen sentir como en familia. Las habitaciones son muy cómodas y con unas vistas fantásticas. En esta época el bosque de castaños y encinas está precioso y desde la terraza de la habitación hay muy buenas vistas. La habitación es amplia y decorada con mucho gusto. Especialmente recomendable las cenas con actuación musical en directo, que se realizan los sábados. El personal te colma de atenciones y te hace sentir muy cómodo. La cocina del hotel también hay que destacarla, tanto en desayunos como en cenas.
