Cortijo El Carligto is the definition of rustic elegance. Atop a Spanish hillside overlooking the Mediterranean, the privately owned estate with its villa-farmhouse comes with a Michelin-rated chef, a personal concierge, spa treatments and a pool. Customize your getaway with experiential excursions including cultural forays into nearby villages, culinary adventures and guided hikes into the nature reserve in the mountains adjacent to the property. You can also participate in grape and olive harvest-themed stays, attend a Flamenco performance, head out on a market tour or even take a full butchering course in time for your next big summer barbecue. Traveling with children in tow? Licensed, professional nanny service is also available.
Private transfer is available to deliver you from the airport in Malaga to the villa, located in the rolling countryside of the eastern Malaga Province in Andalusia. If you prefer a car, a representative from the villa will meet you at the airport and lead you back to the property to avoid any directional-related stress. The villa/farmhouse accommodates up to eight people. A second villa on the estate, Hunting Lodge, will be ready to welcome guests in late spring.

May 30, 2025By-the-cabin Yachting Redefines the Cruise Experience
I wish this day could last forever!” my windswept 9-year-old exclaimed, his voice soaring over the Mediterranean. He gripped the helm of a Bali 4.6 sailing catamaran off the coast of Marseille, his sun- bleached hair whipping in the salty breeze. The scent of the sea mingled with the aroma of warm baguettes drifting from the Côte d’Azur shoreline. Our captain, a seasoned sailor, subtly adjusted course, letting my son feel the exhilarating pull of the wind against the sails. As the waves lapped against the hull, I realized this was no ordinary vacation — this was freedom, unfiltered.
