Arcos is the anchor town of the famous Route of the Pueblos Blancos connecting a series of whitewashed towns and villages across the provinces of Málaga and Cádiz.

This manor house built in the center of Arcos in 1729 by a knightly family and bought in 1998 and converted into a hotel by Barcelona native Elena Posa.

It sits on the edge of a cliff with gorgeous countryside views—some rooms have private terraces overlooking the Guadalete River.

A roof terrace lets all guests enjoy the panorama—stretching from the farm fields below and mountains in the distance to the castle and churches of the medieval city close at hand.

Otherwise, life centers around the central glass-covered courtyard.

Rooms vary, but all have whitewashed walls and wood-beamed ceilings, locally hand-woven bedspreads and carpets, and bathrooms tiles from Fes, Morocco.

The owner favors organic, earthy textures, so everything is made of wood, clay, iron, marble, stone, cotton, silk, or linen.
