Nice to haves

Plan a family getaway to an unspoiled corner of the southern Spanish countryside and revel in the peace and tranquillity of this three-bedroom home set in the foothills of the coastal mountains that back the Andalusian capital of Málaga.

Set on a private plot surrounded by mature trees, revel in the feeling of space and seclusion. With its Mediterranean climate, the home's beautifully tended gardens and refreshing saltwater pool will get plenty of use throughout the day, with a rustic brick barbecue and shaded waterside seating for idyllic alfresco meals.

The interior offers elegant simplicity, with a couple of comfortable seating options facing toward an open fireplace, a generous eight-seater dining table and a beautiful vaulted ceiling adorned with spotlights and a chandelier. Head upstairs to find three individually decorated bedrooms that offer soothing sanctuaries to retreat to when you decide to call it a night.

Embrace nature and plan early morning hikes through the mountains, returning home to refuel with lavish lunches and afternoons spent lounging by the pool. Alternatively, head to the coast for a beach day at any one of the resort towns that line the Costa del Sol, or enjoy a cultural day exploring everything that Málaga has to offer – its burgeoning food scene is not to be missed.

This freshly renovated home in Cartama uses a minimalist and modern style to maximise the internal and outdoor space, offering a relaxing setting away from the hustle and bustle. The outdoor area is just as charming as the interiors – unwind and rest, spend some time with your loved ones in the shade of the trees, and even try your hand at basketball before continuing to the 4-hole mini golf course. Lie by the pool, soak up the sun, and admire the crystal-clear waters that give a spa-like experience inside the confines of your holiday home. When noon arrives, prepare a barbecue, dine alfresco beneath the pergola, and wander among the farm fruit trees to taste the fresh and ecological fruits. Inside, you'll discover a peaceful atmosphere of neutrals with a hint of yellow – unwind on the soft sofas and chat away. While the bedrooms provide the best in comfort at the end of the day.

The proximity to Malaga and its amazing landmarks, Torremolinos with its famed chiringuitos, and the breathtaking landscape of the province's interior allow you to experience varied day trips every day. Explore Malaga's trendy bars and food markets, before sitting next to Gothic cathedrals and Roman ruins, appreciating the outstanding architecture.

Bright and quirky, this rural home – only minutes away from the heart of Estacion de Cartama – is the perfect escape for anyone looking to explore Malaga at a more relaxed pace.

Start mornings off in the farmhouse-style kitchen by preparing breakfast for everyone to enjoy at the powder-blue dining table found on the shaded terrace. Stay out there long after, tying to decide what shape your day might take. 

Pledge yourself to the pool, either in or around, if you’re spending the day at home. Get some holiday reading done in the grassy nook of the garden, making sure to have a glass of wine or an ice-cold cocktail to hand. Of course, the living room also has a cushy sofa that’ll mould perfectly to you as you enjoy a cup of coffee, nose in novel. 

Away from home you can have lunch in town or go for a morning hike in the Senda del rio Guadalhorce area, only minutes away. Return with tired limbs, and run a luxurious bath before spending evenings stargazing or watching a movie together in the living room.

Surrounded by stunning Andalusian farmland, this sprawling home is the perfect setting for a relaxing getaway to southern Spain. You’ll have everything you need for an unforgettable stay here, from a rustic snug complete with its own library of books to a dreamy outdoor swimming pool that looks like it’s been plucked straight from the pages of Architectural Digest. Cool off with a quick dip in the glistening water or settle into one of the poolside loungers and gaze out at the hazy Andalusian mountains. Then when it’s time to eat, grab a seat on whichever terrace takes your fancy and dine alfresco on a home-cooked feast of your favourite tapas dishes. Delish. 

When you fancy getting out and about, you’ll find yourself within easy reach of Málaga city centre, the perfect place for a spot of sightseeing with all your favourite people. Get up close and personal with some of Picasso’s most famous paintings, go for a picnic in Málaga Park, or treat yourself to relaxing stroll along Playa la Malagueta, one of the Costa Del Sol’s most famous beaches. Then, when you’re ready to call it a day, head back to your gorgeous home from home where your air-conditioned bedroom awaits, ready to send you off to sleep.

Surrounded by incredible mountain scenery, this home in El Gastor offers a restful retreat from which to explore the delights of Andalusia. 

Inside, a comfortable, contemporary decor sets a welcoming scene with plenty of natural light streaming in through the large windows. We love how bright the sleek kitchen is with its window-side seating beckoning sociable meals when you’re not dining alfresco on the patio, while the living area invites chilled-out lounging over board games when the midday sun gets too hot. Our favourite way to cool off, however? A dip in the shimmering private pool. Equipped with sun loungers and framed by breathtaking natural vistas, this is where you’ll want to while away long afternoons before firing up the grill for a barbecue under the stars. 

And when it comes to sightseeing, you’ve got a plethora of charming villages to explore – including Zahara de la Sierra 9 kilometres away – not to mention the Sierra de Grazalema  Natural Park, reachable by car.

Swedish design meets traditional Spanish architecture at this gorgeous Andalusian apartment we found hidden away in the heart of Nerja. 

Inside and outside blend into one here thanks to elegant floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the stylish living room in natural light. Sink into the plush sofa and while away the afternoon in front of the TV or head out to your private terrace to soak up gorgeous views of the Mediterranean.  If you’re here for sun, surf, and sand, you’re in luck. Not only will you be within easy walking distance of the nearest beach, but you’ll have unlimited access to the resort’s communal swimming pool, perfect for cooling off when temperatures reach their peak.

Whether you’re travelling with family or friends, you’ll find something for everyone to enjoy here. Lose yourself down the pebbled streets of Nerja’s old town or set off for a day of hiking along the Chíllar River, a short cab ride away. With a whole host of attractions and beautiful landscapes at your fingertips, we wouldn’t blame you if you never wanted to leave.

Perfectly nestled near to the beautiful village of Mijas Pueblo, whichever way you look at it, this family–friendly villa is completely breathtaking. Spacious, contemporary and cosy in equal measure, you can tell that everything – right down to those teeny weeny final touches – has been carefully considered. The result? A spectacular pad steeped in style and grandeur. Cards fully on the table, we’ve fallen head over heels in love with this home, and we’d bet our bottom dollar that you’ll be smitten, too.

With each and every nook, cranny and corner just as awe–inspiring as the next, it’s almost impossible to know where to begin with this home! However, since the soaring temperatures of the scorching Spanish sun are sure to pull you in its direction before long, the crystalline waters of the private pool seem like the perfect place to start.

Surrounded by sleek bamboo furnishings and exotic vegetation, the glass walls of the balcony sketch the most sensational backdrop for a swim, meanwhile the cushioned sun loungers serve up the ideal spot to recline after an invigorating dip. Set over multiple tiers with a selection of separate balconies, the entire exterior of this home is nothing short of magnificent. We’re talking panoramic vistas of the luscious mountainscape, a luxury fire pit, a large shaded pergola with enough space for everyone to relax – you name it, this villa has got it. And as we saunter inside, we only become more doe–eyed.

Flaunting a curation of natural textures and touches, the interior here is light, bright and fabulous. Sheer curtains canopy the windows and doors, letting the sunlight cascade its way from room to room, while the sleek floor tiles feel effortlessly cooling underfoot. Begin each morning by whipping up a creamy latte from the coffee machine and retreating back to the snug of your sumptuous slumber setting to admire the sensational views beyond. Suitably fuelled, venture outside to soak up the rays on whichever sunspot takes your fancy. 

Peeling yourself away from your private patch of paradise will be no easy feat, that’s for sure – but if you do manage to drag yourself away for a little while, the charm of the tiny streets and stunning white architecture won’t disappoint. There’s also tons of native flora and fauna to marvel at, as well as the foothills of the Sierra de Mijas Mountain range.

Queen of the Mountains

This Málaga holiday home epitomises a ‘pool with a view’. Nestled in the Andalusian hillside, overlooking the crystal blue waters, is a wonderfully contemporary, luxury space to enjoy all that Spain has to offer. 

The home itself is modern yet quaint but the outside space is what holds the real appeal for us – this home was made for outdoor living. Whether you’re firing up the grill in your summer kitchen or indulging in a new book on your comfy sofas spanning the length of your private pool, all you need is a chilled glass of sangria in hand to feel right at home.  This stunning corner plot means you will have the Spanish sunshine with you all day. Sit back, close your eyes and feel the breeze brush over your skin as the scent of the sea hangs in the air. Absolute bliss.

Once you’ve enjoyed sundowners and some alfresco dining, it may be time to retire to the comfort of the indoors. The open-plan living and kitchen area is perfect for a family or group of friends wanting to enjoy some time together. Whether you’re relaxing in front of the fire and the flatscreen TV or putting on a pot of coffee first thing in the morning, this home is ideal for sociable groups wanting a memorable holiday. Neutral colours punctuated with natural wicker features make this home a calm haven after a day of exploring the Spanish outdoors. 


Wicker Dream

Situated in a modern apartment complex overlooking the Mediterranean, this cosy home is a great option for couples, families, and groups of friends looking to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and unwind on Spain’s stunning Costa Del Sol. 

We love the uncluttered feel of the interior here – think white walls and sleek Swedish furniture – but it’s the outside space that really stands out. Boasting lush communal gardens and a secluded private terrace, this is the perfect place to soak up the Spanish sun and unwind with all your favourite people. 

Start your morning with a dip in the dreamy infinity pool then settle in for a day of relaxation on the veranda. When it’s time to eat, grab a bite at one of the city’s leading restaurants – paella, anyone? – or rustle up a delicious home-cooked meal in the well-stocked kitchen. 

If you fancy getting out and about, there’s plenty to keep you occupied in Nerja’s historic centre, but if we were you, we’d be tempted to stay put and make the most of the view. Pour yourself a glass of wine and watch the sun go down over the glistening Mediterranean before retiring to your comfy bedroom for a good night’s rest. Then get up and do it all over again. What could be better?

Verano Azul

Set in the dramatic mountainous landscape of the Malaga countryside, this unique home has all the ingredients for an unforgettable holiday. Set on 6,500 square metres of land, the home comprises three separate houses built together in a small complex. Each of the houses has a living room and a fully equipped kitchen, so you can make your coffee and breakfast without fighting over countertop space. 

Long summer days can be spent in the garden, soaking up the panoramic views of the green hills and golden mountains. When it gets hot, cool off with a dip in the 15 metre pool. Come lunchtime, fire up the barbecue and enjoy an alfresco meal together on the terrace. The villa is in a peaceful, remote location, and the nearest town is Rincón de la Victoria, 8.7 kilometres away, where there’s pharmacies and supermarkets, as well as restaurants and bars.

You could easily spend all your time relaxing at the villa and splashing around in the pool, but if you feel like an adventure, Malaga is 19 kilometres away and easily reachable by car. Wander around and admire the old colonial architecture and pretty squares, stopping in for a drink and a bite to eat at one of the family run tapas bars. Or spend the afternoon at one of Malaga’s beautiful sandy beaches, enjoying a paella at a seafront restaurant. After a day of sun, sea and sand, head home for cocktails on the terrace as the mountains turn pink.

Golden Vistas

Workplace

Set within stunning Southern Spanish countryside, this charming home offers so much more than mesmerising mountain views. A modern interior characterised by traditional touches makes for a comfortable living cum dining area complete with terracotta tiled floors, and a large fireside sofa, while the fully equipped kitchen allows for the preparation of tapas at any time. A glass enclosed lounge area allows you to soak up that Andalusian aura even on cooler days, but it is this home’s show stopping outdoor spaces that really seal the deal.  

Laze on sun loungers on the lawn or seek the shade of the palms and pines before cooling off with a dip in your private pool. Spend the afternoon grilling on the barbecue in the outdoor kitchen or trying your hand at making homemade pizzas in the outdoor oven before dining alfresco at the large dining table on the covered terrace.  As day turns to night take your drinks and gather on the curved white seating area to watch the sunset behind the awesome Almijara.

If you fancy venturing a little further afield, why not visit the Frigiliana, consistently voted one of the most beautiful villages in Spain. Distinctively Moorish in appearance, Frigiliana is home to a 17th century Archaeological Museum, the Santa Fiora botanical gardens and as well as narrow, winding, cobblestone streets full of small shops, tapas bars and restaurants. Why not sample some local seafood –Pescaito frito and molletes or pick up some supplies for a family picnic post wild swim in the Higueron river.   


Tranquility Itself

Pets Allowed

Pets

Wedged between the coast and the Sierras of Tejeda, Almijara and Alhama Natural Park, this beautiful home has the best of land and sea. Allocate days to exploring the sweeping views of the nature reserve as you set out to find the hidden waterfalls on the many hiking trails. On other days, you can appreciate the sunshine by doing absolutely nothing more than making yourself comfortable on the beaches along the coast. Sunbathe, frolic in the surf and built sandcastles as the sun begins to dip. 

Come home to a bright and cosy home where you can utilise the open dining, kitchen, and living space by going back and forth to top up your coffee as you keep your nose in a novel. Enjoy a Spanish tortilla for breakfast at the dining table and fire up the barbecue for a grilled lunch alfresco. Enjoy drinks around the pool, slipping into the cool waters whenever the heat gets a little intense. 

Spend balmy evenings outside, conversing under the stars as you enjoy another glass of wine.
