Finca/Lantgård i Gibralgalia, Costa del Sol

Historic Andalusian Posada, Licensed Casa Rural con Mesón & Luxury Hospitality Estate

Nestled in the rolling hills of the beautiful Guadalhorce Valley, surrounded by breathtaking mountain scenery and picturesque whitewashed villages, lies one of the most authentic hospitality properties in Southern Spain. Originally built in 1852 as a traditional Andalusian Posada and historic grain mill, this exceptional estate has been lovingly restored into an elegant country inn where authentic architecture, timeless character and modern comfort blend seamlessly together. Every corner of the property reflects its rich history while offering today's discerning guests the luxury, comfort and atmosphere expected from a premium hospitality destination.

Located just 35 minutes from Málaga International Airport and the beaches of the Costa del Sol, the property enjoys a privileged position within a charming Andalusian village of approximately 400 residents. Here, guests experience complete tranquillity, privacy and authentic Spanish living while remaining within easy reach of Málaga, Marbella, the airport and the many attractions of Andalusia.

The property is officially registered with the Junta de Andalucía as a Superior Category Casa Rural, offering luxury accommodation for up to twelve guests across six beautifully appointed guest suites. In addition, it benefits from a valuable municipal operating licence as a Casa Rural con Mesón, allowing the property to operate both as a rural tourism establishment and as a licensed restaurant. This rare combination of tourism registration and hospitality licensing provides exceptional operational flexibility and creates numerous opportunities for future owners to further develop an already successful hospitality business.

To further strengthen the property's legal position, the current owner has initiated the AFO (Asimilado a Fuera de Ordenación) procedure entirely at their own expense. The Municipality has confirmed that the property qualifies for the AFO declaration, with only the formal administrative issuance of the certificate remaining. As the timing of the final document depends solely on the administrative processing by the authorities, it is possible that the official AFO certificate may not yet have been issued by the completion date. Should this occur, the parties may agree that an appropriate portion of the purchase price will be retained in escrow by the acting lawyer or notary until the official AFO certificate has been delivered. All costs relating to the AFO procedure will be borne by the current owner, providing additional security and complete peace of mind for the purchaser while allowing the transaction to proceed without unnecessary delay. Note: Because of these circumstances a mortgage on this property will not be possible for the moment.
