Casa Cocoon in Mijas Pueblo

You find Casa Cocoon in Barrio Santana, the most authentic and historical part of the village. In this “hood”, the majority of the residents are locals – Spanish people who have lived in the townhouses for generations. Mijas Pueblo is situated close to the coastline – but still at the bottom of the mountains Sierra de Mijas. Here you find fabulous walking trails reaching in all directions, surrounded by trees. In the charming village, you walk around in narrow, winding cobblestone streets. The houses are all white, decorated with pottery carrying flowering plants. The residents – “Los Mijeños”- spend a large part of their lives outdoors in the streets and, unlike locals in other larger cities of Spain, welcome foreigners with large smiles and big hearts. When you get here, it is easy to understand why dazzling Mijas Pueblo has been a great attraction for many, many years.

Choose between Apt. Coco and Apt. Coon

The townhouse has two apartments. Apt Coco is on the 2nd floor and has two French balconies, two separate bedrooms – one with a double bed and the other with a bunk bed. The apartment has direct access to a private, furnished and sheltered patio in the back.
Apt Coon is on the 3rd floor and has one bedroom with a big double bed. This apt has direct access to a private terrace as an extension to the open living room/kitchen – by a glass door that can be slid open all the way – with a small dining area and sun beds.
Both apartments have well-equipped kitchens, delicate bathrooms and large custom-built sliding door wardrobes in the bedrooms. From the apartments there is a stairway up to the spacious roof top terrace, with a small pool of 3×2 meters, sun beds, a small lounge and a long bench with a corner under the pergola. The roof top is for sharing when there are guests in both apartments and we only have guests 18+ years.

Casa Cocoon is close to ”everything”

Only a couple of minutes walk from the townhouse, you will find two grocery stores, bakery, the butcher and the market. A large number of restaurants – popular both among locals and visitors – are also to be found a few steps away. There are many squares/plazas spread around, from where you can have your morning coffee and start people watching when the village starts to wake up. Some regulars start their day with a strong shot at 9:00 at Bar Porras, a couple of minutes from the house.

Restaurants / Chiringuitos / Beach clubs

You will find a large variety of bars, cafés and restaurants who offer tapas, BBQ, Italian, Asian/fusion plus local and international wine. We can give you advice for where to eat depending on what you are looking for – not only in the village, but in Benalmádena, Málaga, La Cala de Mijas and in Fuengirola. And we know special spots for where to enjoy yourselves in combination with beach life, so-called informal “after sun” places. You may even want to visit venues that are a little more exclusive, like El Oceana, Nikki Beach and La Sala by the Sea.

Golf, hiking, excursions and other activities just around the corner – all year round!

On Costa del Sol there are approximately 70 golf courses open all year round. The majority of these are only a 30 min drive from Casa Cocoon. There is a reason why this area is called Costa del Golf. If you visit during winter season, it takes a bit more than 2 hours to get to Sierra Nevada to go skiing! The season at this popular destination with mountains as high as 3.000 meters above sea level, may last until the middle of May. It is quite extraordinary being able to combine a couple of days skiing with beach life on the coast afterwards! Staying in Casa Cocoon offers plenty of possibilities. If you would like to explore more of Andalucía during your holiday, you may easily do day trips to Marbella, Puerto Banus, Granada, Cordoba, Sevilla, Tarifa, Cádiz and – above all – the gradually more and more popular city of Málaga, a 30 min drive away.
