El Nido means 'The Nest'. It is a perfect place to curl up and forget about the world and its cares. Only a few minutes walk from Orgiva, with its shops, bars and restaurants, El Nido lies in the valley of the Rio Chico amidst stone walled orchards of oranges and olives. Starting from the ruins of an ancient stone farm, a local architect and interior designer created this delightful holiday home in a traditional style with modern comforts.

Guest comments
'We had a lovely relaxing time in such beautiful and peaceful surroundings. thanks you so much! Enjoyed the gorgeous Indian meal on our last night, it was a real feast and well worth it. Very many thanks for a delightful time in El Nido. A fantastic spot to unwind and relax! Clare and Ainsley always available but in and unobtrusive way thanks for everything. House was everything we expected and more! Totally relaxing and a wonderful place to unwind. We had good weather. Pleasurable visits from the animals (from next door). Would highly recommend Ainsleys cooking! Both Clare and Ainsley are excellent hosts - would highly recommend reflexology. Have had a wonderful time’
