“Very clean, well equipped, good sized rooms, comfy beds - everything was spot on! We asked to get packed breakfast as we were leaving early and got it. Their sandwiches were amazing!”

“The guesthouse is beautiful and very clean. The hosts were lovely. We took a little side trip up in the mountains on our way to Malaga. The mountains are beautiful, and the drive was fun, but the town is tiny with not much to do.”

Olive & Ivy
The Guesthouse is privately owned by a Swiss couple, Priska + Michi, and is perfectly located next to the Main Square, the Heart of the Village, and just a one-minute walk from the splendid church of Our Lady of the Rosary, built on the site of the old Mosque in the 16th Century. Outside are two fountains fed by an Arab cistern supplying drinking water from the surrounding Mountains. Lovingly designed and refurbished in 2020, it offers four individually decorated rooms and one family apartment, described as Stylish & Airy with a beautiful, clean modern look. All rooms provide high-standard en-suite facilities, ensuring a wonderful stay and a warm, friendly welcome from your hosts.
It was our dream to create a wonderful place like "Olive & Ivy"! A place where you feel at home and enjoy the beautiful white village Canillas de Aceituno. Our goal is to offer top-quality customer service and do our utmost to make your stay enjoyable, safe, and comfortable. Following our motto LESS IS MORE, we are here to help you have a great time. Every morning, Mike creates an unforgettable breakfast, and Priska spoils you with everything you need.
We are a brand-new boutique guesthouse with architectural design and interior decoration, ideally located next to the main square of the Moorish-style mountain village of Canillas de Aceituno, Málaga. Stroll the historic cobbled streets or explore mountain trails leading to La Maroma and the Sierra de Tejeda.
