We had an amazing but too short stay in this beautiful family run hotel. Superb and very friendly staff . Peaceful , relaxing and very well run. ( the owner himself got out of bed to collect us from Ronda when our taxi let us down!)

Beautiful hotel in the heart of the mountains. So quiet and peaceful. The food was excellent as was the standard of the room. The staff were very friendly and professional and couldn’t do enough to ensure your stay was a perfect one. Our stay was perfect. The pool was an added bonus. Superb. Thanks to all the staff at Molino del Santos, especially Victor. We will return as soon as possible

Hidden gem near Ronda

We were so glad we found Molino del Santo as part of our couple of nights getaway from Marbella.It was a little tricky to find as satnav decided to send us off course towards the end of our journey but once here,we loved the peace and stunning beauty of this family run hotel.All of the staff welcomed us warmly and took the time to get to know us and tell us about the hotel.We enjoyed the late afternoon sun by the lovely swimming pool which is surrounded by beautiful gardens.Our dinner on the flower filled terrace by the running stream was great-good choice of menu and excellent attentive service.Our room was spotlessly clean and we appreciated the tea and coffee making facilities!Breakfast was wonderful-huge choice of items (hot and cold) on the buffet and option to order eggs.We really enjoyed the walk from the hotel along the river to the Cueva del Gato.The only minor issue was the bed which was a bit hard for comfort if you prefer a softer mattress.Otherwise everything was fantastic and we would highly recommend!Many thanks!

We (family of 4, children aged 14 and 11) have just spent a lovely 4 nights at Molino del Santo. The hotel grounds are beautiful - lush, green planting everywhere, a pretty vine-covered pergola, varied and secluded lounging areas and a good sized pool at the centre. Our room (number 8) was a great size for a family of 4, split over 2 levels with two bedrooms, two bathrooms and two balconies. Furnishing is simple but the rooms are nice and clean. The restaurant was lovely - food was excellent and the staff friendly and relaxed. Breakfast was also varied and extensive. The location is good - a short drive into Ronda and also with walking/running routes straight from the hotel. Cuevo de Gato is 2.5km away along a riverside footpath. We really enjoyed our stay at Molino del Santo and were sad to leave.

This is a lovely, welcoming countryside hotel, set up a little like Spanish Village. Not five-star luxury, but more than makes up for that in service and friendliness. Perfect base for exploring the Pueblos Blancos.

Fabulous hotel

A beautiful hotel to relax and enjoy the local area. Great walking from the hotel. Staff were all fantastic. Room was quiet and so relaxing with a great terrace overlooking the pool and area. Restaurant food was outstanding and very reasonably priced. I would highly recommend the hotel if your looking for a holiday in the beautiful Ronda area.

A lovely secluded hotel...

I visited this hotel for lunch 20 years and vowed to return one day- so glad I did. It is private, peaceful refuge in lovely gardens, a world away from the Costa del Sol. The staff are excellent and you feel like a valued guest.
