Apartamentos rurales La Alquería del Pilar, Bañeres De Mariola Overview
Apartamentos rurales La Alquería del Pilar is located in Bañeres De Mariola, Spain. Rated 9.4 out of 10 based on 29 guest reviews.
Apartamentos rurales La Alquería del Pilar is a countryside apartment stay in Bañeres de Mariola, Spain, set in the Ventorrillo area (Ventorrillo, 11). It’s the kind of place guests choose when they want quiet, space, and time outdoors rather than a busy hotel schedule. With a guest rating of 9.4/10 from 29 reviews, the overall impression is strongly positive, particularly for the calm setting and the practical comfort of the apartments.
Expect an atmosphere shaped by the rural landscape: stone-and-wood character, a terrace for slower moments, and a pool that works well for warm afternoons. Many travelers also value the on-site support, including room service and express check-in/check-out, which helps when you’re arriving by road. For families, the setup is child-friendly, and pets are welcome too, which is a major plus for road-trip visitors who don’t want to leave animals behind. BBQ facilities add a simple way to make evenings feel local and relaxed.
The surrounding Sierra de Mariola Nature Reserve is the main draw, with hiking routes starting within about 8 km and viewpoints and countryside lanes close by. If you want a change of pace, Molí del Comte is roughly 12 km away, and the historic centres of Cocentaina and Alcoi sit around 18–22 km from the apartments. For a bigger day trip, Terra Mítica Theme Park is about 55 km, reachable by car.
La Alquería del Pilar is best for couples and families who want a pet-friendly base in the mountains, plus travelers who prefer driving to exploring by public transport.
