A quieter kind of holiday in Andalusia

Stay in your own private casa, surrounded by mountain calm, Mediterranean light and the natural beauty of southern Spain.

Welcome to Mariposa Holidays

At Mariposa Holidays, you stay in one of four characterful casas, surrounded by Andalusian hills and views towards the Mediterranean. This is a place to wake slowly, spend long days outside and enjoy genuine privacy. Katti and Rob live at the finca and are nearby whenever you need their help.

Your own rhythm

Four casas offer the freedom to settle in, slow down and make each day your own.

Hosted with heart

Thoughtful hosting means personal contact, honest guidance and help nearby, while your privacy always comes first.

Between mountains and sea

Mountain light, Mediterranean views and natural surroundings invite quieter mornings, longer meals and unhurried days outside.

The hills of Andalusia, with the coast close by

Finca Mariposa rests in the hills near Nerja, between Andalusia’s mountain landscape and the Mediterranean coast. From here, you can discover white villages, quiet coves and lively coastal towns, then return to open views and still evenings. Málaga Airport remains within reach, while a car gives you freedom to explore.
Mariposa Horse retreat

Time to reconnect, guided by horses

Our horse-assisted retreats are currently held in German, combining guided reflection, restorative time, Andalusian nature and meaningful space to reconnect with yourself more deeply.

Horses as co-coaches

Horses respond to your presence and body language, helping patterns become visible without judgement or pressure.

A small, trusted group

A small group creates safety, personal attention and genuine connection, while leaving enough space for you.

Space for your whole self

Guided sessions, nourishing meals, rest and unstructured time allow you to experience depth without constant demands.

No experience required

Every encounter happens from the ground, with guidance, clear boundaries and respect for your individual pace.
