Accommodations

Hidden in the hills near Gaucín, on an 8.5-hectare estate, Cortijo Genesis is a small-scale hotel with 5 rooms where tranquillity, colour and personal attention come together. A traditional cortijo, fully renovated, surrounded by nature and sweeping views. Here, you stay in the heart of the Andalusian countryside, far from the crowds.

Inside, the atmosphere feels warm and distinctive. The Belgian owners, Valentina and Nicolas, together with interior designer Victoria Maria Geyer (Valentina’s sister), gave the house a colourful soul. Authentic elements, wooden beam ceilings and terracotta floors form the foundation, while vibrant fabrics, art and subtle details add character to every space. The rooms (suitable for 2–4 people) are named after gemstones, and each has its own colour palette and atmosphere, with great attention to comfort.

The patio and surrounding garden form the beating heart of the house. Breakfast is served here each morning: freshly baked bread, eggs from the estate’s own chickens, homemade jams, fruit, pancakes and other local delights. Twice a week, dinner is prepared, and served at long, beautifully set tables under soft lighting.

In the expansive park with a swimming pool, you will find quiet corners to read, meditate or simply do nothing at all. Those seeking deeper relaxation can participate in activities such as Reiki, meditation, yoga or equicoaching. Cortijo Genesis is not just a place to stay, but a place to reconnect - with yourself, with nature and with the rhythm of Andalusia. The surroundings also invite exploration. From Gaucín, you can discover mountain roads, coastal paths and whitewashed villages. Golf courses, hiking trails and the Mediterranean Sea are all within reach.

Highlights

An artistic soul in the heart of Andalusia

Beneath wooden beam ceilings and above terracotta floors, colour and character come alive. Belgian owners Valentina and Nicolas, together with interior designer Victoria Maria Geyer, have created a home where vibrant fabrics, art and thoughtful details add a bold, personal layer to its authentic Andalusian soul.

Gather, savour, stay awhile

Mornings begin with the scent of freshly baked bread, eggs from the estate’s own chickens and homemade delicacies. Twice a week, long beautifully set tables are lit softly for a shared dinner under the open sky — relaxed, flavourful and wonderfully convivial.

Between earth and endless sky

On the yoga platform, surrounded by rolling hills and silence, time gently slows. Join a guided class or move at your own pace, breathing in the vast Andalusian landscape as balance naturally returns.
