Situated within the charming Axarquia region in Malaga province, Cómpeta is one of the better known villages in the area. Until recently, the village was little known, nowadays however, foreigners have helped put the place on the map with their investment and often development of old fincas and traditional town houses.
A stay in the village offers countryside walks, authentic bars and restaurants day trips to other neighbouring Axarquia villages and towns and Malaga City is little over an hours' drive away. The beautiful Nerja coastal town is just 30 minutes drive away, perfect for anyone who loves the beach.
Hostals in Competa
A HOSTAL (also known as a guest house) provides basic accommodation at a reasonable price and a smaller (than hotel) private room. Hostals are common in Spain and display a 'H' with a small 's' sign at the door with one or two stars. They are exempt from providing many of the facilities that a hotel must provide. Many in larger towns occupying a floor of a building or in villages and smaller towns are often located in traditional buildings. They are often family run. There must be en-suite toilets (but not bathrooms) in all rooms. A 2-star hostal must also have public toilets and must have an elevator.
A PENSION display a 'P' sign at the door with no star classification. These offer accommodation without need to offer any complimentary service such as refreshments. Pensiones have lesser requirements than a Hostal. There is no elevator requirement. The toilets and bathrooms may be outside the bedroom but there must be one bathroom for every five bedrooms. They must still provide a cleaning service and heating but not air conditioning.
