Friends of ours have recently started to rent out their two Yurts. They are tastefully and luxuriously furnished and are perfect for the emerging Glamping trend. We felt very honoured the be "test sleepers" in one of the Yurts amidst the beautiful nature of Algarrobo. A Yurt has for centuries been the home of nomadic Mongolian people. It has a beautiful wooden frame of poles made of chestnut covered with layers of felt made of sheeps wool and canvas so they look very attractive and are super strong. The Yurts of our friends Erna and Rolf are adapted to the Spanish environment by professional Yurt builders Ratna and Rob Mathews from the Alpujarras which means that they are cool in the summer and warm in the winter months .
Staying in a Yurt is a romantic experience and we had perfect weather for our stay. The sky was beautifully lit in the evening which we could see and enjoy from our bed as the roof of the Yurt can be opened revealing the starry sky which felt so close.
After spending a night in a Yurt for the first time we understand the true meaning of "Glamping" (glamorous luxury camping). Each Yurt has its own lit terrace with seats and parasols, a luxury sanitary unit, a fully equipped Spanish cooking tent and a swimming pool. The Yurts can accomodate up to two people.
Both yurts are in a perfect location for interesting day trips to Nerja, Frigiliana, Comares, Competa, Malaga, Seville, the Alpujarras and Granada, lake Vinuela and several beattiful nature reserves such as the Sierra Tejeda .

Reviews from Our customers
We daily work with great pleasure on fulfilling the needs of our customers. During the years we have been able to help many people find their dream house here on the Costa del Sol. We are quite proud of this and have asked them to share their experiences with you as who can better explain how Team Second Home Andalusia works than our customers themselves?
The place for us in Cómpeta
Our experience with Second Home Andalusia has been entirely positive from the very first contact. Malcolm and Caroline are warm, approachable and genuinely involved people who went above and beyond to support us in our search for the perfect holiday home in the Axarquía region.
House to renovate in Iznajar
If you are starting your exciting journey to buying a property in Spain, we can’t recommend Caroline and Malcolm from Second Home Andalusia enough! They took time to understand what we wanted and sourced plenty of properties for us to consider.
Worry-free sale of our cortijo in Sedella!
We were impressed with the approach adopted by Caroline and Malcolm of Second Home Andalusia for marketing our property and their approach resulted in a quick almost hassle-free overall sales experience. By getting to know their buyers and sellers’ requirements and objectives, this resulted in less wasted time and unnecessary viewings. They do their research first!
A GOOD YEAR!
Admittedly borrowed from the great film with Russel Crowe, highly recommended for anyone who has or is looking for a home abroad. What a super year 2024 is! If you've been dreaming of a house in Spain since childhood and in 2024 you get to put your signature to the purchase contract of a house in Vélez-Málaga, then you can talk about a good year.
