If you’re looking for a villa with a view, your search is over. Step into this home and out onto your sun-drenched terrace, and you will be met with sea views as far as the eye can reach. It’s what we love most about this home and you can almost feel the waves washing a sense of calm over you. With a saltwater infinity pool and a delightful area for alfresco dining, you have plentiful options when it comes to finding somewhere to enjoy those vistas. 

Nestled in the hills of Málaga, you have the best of both worlds – Spanish countryside and the sea nearby. Characterised by the wash of terracotta, this home is contemporary with a traditional Spanish feel. It’s a home just asking for friends or family to gather, rest, relax, and enjoy a little downtime together. 

After a restful sleep, grab yourself a morning coffee and enjoy stunning views of the sunrise from your patio. As lunchtime lingers and your tummy starts to rumble, you can fire up the barbecue and enjoy some food with an ice-cold beer in hand, before settling down for a little siesta. When you’re ready to get out and explore the local area, you are perfectly positioned to head to the white-washed town of Torrox. With inland and coastal beauty spots so close by, this home is situated where mountains merge into beaches, providing everything you could want from your time away, from views to daily entertainment.

This home is perfect for water babies. Not only will you have your own private pool to splash about in, you’ll also have dreamy vistas of the Mediterranean Sea from almost every angle. It’s in affluent Punta Lara and looks out over Nerja and the coast from an elevated position, so the views really are stunning. Best of all, Nerja's beaches and bustle are just over a kilometre away. The villa is modern and sleek, and the occasional bold splash of colour adds a touch of warmth and character. The marble floors and steep stairs might put off parents with little ones, though.  

Water View Wonder

Perched in the foothills of the Sierra de Almijara and Sierra de Tejeda mountain ranges, this villa can be found in Torrox, a rural part of the Costa del Sol. The villa has rustic charm aplenty, but its impressive vistas make it all the more special. 

Inside, authentic features take centre stage – think Cotto tiles, beamed ceilings and original farmhouse features. The beamed veranda, encased in glass,  is the heart of the home – flooded with natural light from the windows that run the room's length, we expect you’ll spend most of your time here dining and unwinding with a cold glass of Albariño. From here, you can catch views across the sprawling landscape and onto the sparkling pool.

The outside space is encompassed by flora and cacti so you can relax in your natural surroundings. Start your day with coffee on the terrace before stretching out on the Balinese-style daybed for sun-dappled lounging. When you need a quick refresh, slide into the inviting pool for a refreshing dip. Come the golden hour, you’ll want to enjoy a jug of sangria before settling into a barbecued feast around the family-style table.

When you’re ready to hit the beach, it's a short drive to Torrox – here, you’ll find the Torrox lighthouse, white sands and restaurants overlooking the Mediterranean.

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.

Beams of Wood & Sun

With breathtaking views across the mountains of Andalusia, this home makes the perfect setting for a rejuvenating retreat. And with its location just a short drive from the whitewashed town of Torrox, there’s everything you could need to experience the warmth and beauty of southern Spain. 

Set across one floor, you’ll find a wonderful blend of tradition and contemporary comforts here. From the wooden ceilings and terracotta floors to the rustic styling and covered terrace, this is the kind of space that brings ease and joy to daily living. So whether you’re here for a quiet escape or to soak up the sights, this home invites you to enjoy a constant sense of sanctuary. 

Inside, the simple and cosy rooms provide ample space for relaxing, while the outdoor terrace celebrates the energising power of this unique location. From sunrise to sunset, you can enjoy dazzling views whilst swimming in the pool or sipping drinks from a lounger. By night, the covered porch transforms into an idyllic spot for Spanish-style barbecue meals.

From here, you’ll find it’s just a short drive to the beaches of the Costa del Sol, while the beautiful city of Málaga is just a little further along the coastline.

An apartment, in the heart of Nerja, with a private heated pool? Count us in. Inside, there’s a kitchen with all the accoutrements for home cooking and an en-suite bedroom with access to the furnished terrace. While this home can sleep four guests, two will be on the sofa bed in the living area, which will compromise any social space. If exploring is on the itinerary, the Balcón de Europa viewpoint and Carabeillo Beach are within easy walking distance of your doorstep.

Blue Skies & Sunshine

Desk

Located just 4 kilometres from Torrox, this stylish home offers a scenic retreat from which to enjoy the delights of the Andalusian coast. 

Inside, tall ceilings, tiled floors and contemporary decor set a welcoming scene in the open-plan living area. Open the glass doors here to step out onto a private patio where a shaded dining area facing the surrounding picturesque hills beckons alfresco feasts aplenty courtesy of the barbecue. Around the corner, you’ll also find a shimmering plunge pool – the ideal way to unwind at any time of day or night, a glass of bubbly in hand. Alternatively, take in the breathtaking vistas from the bedroom’s picture window-facing armchair and feel inspired to work on something creative at the handy desk space just next to it. 

When it comes to exploring outside your home, make a beeline for the nearby beaches (3.1 kilometres away) or visit some of the charming villages in the vicinity, including Frigiliana and Nerja, both under 20 kilometres from your door.

It's easy peasy lemon squeezy to sit back and relax in this Mediterranean paradise. And with panoramic views stretching over the valley and out to sea, you'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to choosing your spot on the porch or out by the private swimming pool in the secluded garden. 

Breathe in the fresh aromatics of the home's vegetable garden, growing seasonal fares, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, aubergines, fava beans, garlic, onions, sugar canes, and tropical products, such as avocadoes, mangoes, pitayas, lychees. The host welcomes you to pick the produce when it's ripe to use when cooking up your own culinary delights in the kitchen or on the barbecue grill. You'll also find fresh eggs at the henhouse that you can select for free – meaning there should always be something available for breakfast in the morning. 

The home's interior offers just as much Mediterranean charm as original features, and traditional Andalusian styles inject character into the otherwise minimal modern designs. While we think hanging out, sunbathing and making a splash in the pool present enough to keep you feeling refreshed and revitalised, you'll also be located just 3 kilometres away from the nearest beach and within easy reach of the local town of Torrox. 


Easy Peasy, Lemon Squeezy 

Beach / Pool Towels

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.

Situated in the Costa del Sol countryside, a short drive from the heart of Nerja, this easy-going villa is a relaxing escape for families or friends alike. Inside, expect soothing turquoise tones and a sociable open-plan layout. Spend mornings lounging on the sofa or throw together a flavourful breakfast at the fully-equipped kitchenette. Take your dishes out onto the terrace and dine in the shade before plunging into the inviting swimming pool. 

Look forward to whiling away the hours on a sun lounger with a paperback in hand or, if you’d prefer to explore, jump in the car and take the 3.2-kilometre drive to Caletilla Beach. Bob about in the clear water then stroll into town for a fantastic selection of bars, restaurants cafes and stunning Mediterranean views from the Balcón de Europa. 

Calm at Heart

Cafetiere

High up in the Axarquian countryside, tucked into the foothills of the Sierra de Almijara and Sierra de Tejeda mountain ranges, this charming villa is a vision of yellow. This vibrant oasis offers plenty of space for relaxation and a sprawling backdrop of the herbaceous valley.

As soon as you arrive you’ll be met with a marigold façade, but step inside and you’ll find a palette of crisp white and hints of its sunny exterior. The open-plan living space is thoughtfully designed to celebrate the natural elements – sliding glass doors allow you to admire the expansive views from your plush sofa. You’ll love opening the doors each morning as the sun rises and savouring the quiet beauty of this setting with a coffee on the terrace. Days can be spent floating in your pool, stretched out on the loungers with your holiday read or grilling up some padron peppers on the barbecue – the outdoor dining room is our favourite spot from which to enjoy the panoramas. As the stars descend, pour a glass of Macabeo and soak up the balmy evening heat with your loved ones.

Just a short drive away, you'll be able to make the most of the pristine beaches and quaint seaside tavernas of Torrox. When it's time to explore the great outdoors, make the drive to Nerja, where you will find spectacular hiking trails and birdwatching tracks up in the Sierra de Almijara mountains.

Whether you're looking forward to sampling some fantastic local cuisine during your trip or you want to spend your time basking at the golden beaches, or maybe you're looking for something a little more fun for the kids.

If ever there was a home to welcome you in with bucketloads of charm, this is it. Nestled in the quiet streets of Frigiliana, you’ll feel relaxation wash over you from the moment you step inside and set your suitcase down. The atmosphere created is one of tranquillity, with whites, light wood, green and ochre running throughout every space. We love the interior patio here – such a unique feature where it’s easy to imagine many hours spent with a good book and a glass of wine in this little piece of paradise. With a quaint kitchen packed with everything you could need to rustle up a homemade feast, you can cook a delicious dinner and gather around the table with your loved ones to enjoy good food and quiet conversation.

Picture Postcard Perfect

Lift Access

With unobstructed Alboran Sea views from the terrace, the living space and the bedrooms, this apartment is ideal for those seeking a restful holiday on the Costa del Sol. When you want to take a break from the heat, there are two communal swimming pools on the premises. Having a car is essential here, especially if you intend to explore. Fortunately, Calaceite Beach, supermarkets and the towns of Torrox Costa and Nerja are within easy driving distance.

Breezy Outlook

Typically Andalusian with whitewashed stone and red roof tiles, this home in Torrox is pretty as a picture. Although it can’t quite compare to the breathtaking vistas of the rolling hills of Málaga, and the Mediterranean beyond, you can get the best of both views by sitting out on the terrace. Covered, the patio also offers a welcome break from the sun whilst still enjoying the mild heat the region is known for. If you’re up for a swim, duck out through the arch and make a splash into the pool whilst the food is grilling away on the barbecue. 

Rustic and homely inside, you might retreat to one of the bedrooms for a nap after enjoying a Mediterranean feast. Wake up to the aroma of freshly-brewed coffee and enjoy it in the shade of the umbrella out by the patio furniture.

Days away can be spent at any of the two closest beaches – both are only a short drive away – or take a road trip and explore more of Costa del Sol and Málaga. Golfing enthusiasts can also head to the nearest course and anyone wanting to get up close and personal with the native foliage might check out the many hiking trails around the area. 

Portal to Torrox

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

Bathrobes

Luxury Bedding

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. 

Azure Horizons

Set equidistant from Nerja's dazzling coast and the wander-worthy streets of the hilltop Frigiliana village, you'll find this enticing hideaway deep in the dramatic terrain of Malaga's mountains.

With shady verandas for long lazy Mediterranean feasts and a magnificent rooftop terrace with jaw-dropping vistas for golden hour cocktails, this place is the perfect tonic for relaxation.

For all the home's dazzling-white, contemporary exteriors, inside, there's a distinctly bohemian feel to the interiors with rattan accents and warm wooden hues delivering all the Andalusian vibes you're chasing. And thanks to the double-height ceilings with exposed beams, everywhere feels cool and inviting.

When the coast finally lures you, nearly ten miles of sandy beaches await. The very nearest – Burriana Beach (a twelve-minute drive), gets our vote. Then make a pit stop in Nerja's Old Town (a ten-minute drive) to dive into its countless authentic restaurants for a taste of Malaga. Or, in the opposite direction, Frigiliana (a ten-minute drive) with its tapas bars tucked away within the atmospheric narrow streets of the Moorish old quarter. Just be sure to make it home for sunset – the views from that rooftop terrace are out-of-this-world.

Mermaid of Malaga

This cosy modern apartment has stunning views of the sea and lies in the heart of the eastern coast of Malaga, in the town of Nerja. With a shared pool and your own private balcony, you'll want to spend every day outdoors soaking in the sun and working on that tan. This home is the ultimate in relaxation, and with optional airport transfer and champagne, it can easily be elevated to an even more luxurious experience. Dine alfresco whether you're eating at home or out and about, and experience stunning sea views whether you're in the open-plan living area or waking up in the morning. If you're having a day in, whip up something tasty in the well-equipped kitchen and sit at the dining table (or even the table on the balcony) to get some last-minute work done remotely.

You'll be perfectly connected to the nearby towns of Torrox Costa and Nerja during your stay, so you'll be within walking distance of a whole host of amenities for everyone to enjoy. Nerja is a perfect town for the discerning traveller looking for a wonderful experience without being in the centre of all the usual tourist architecture – you won't find high rises here, and you'll be able to enjoy the natural beauty of the place uninterrupted. Take the short drive to visit the beautiful Burriana beach where you can stroll along the coast that stretches for miles, lined with excellent bars, restaurants and activities for everyone. Or take the even shorter drive to the beautiful little hidden gems of Guilche and Vilches beaches, with a couple of local restaurants nearby and beautiful sandy shores. So whether you're hoping to sample some fantastic local cuisine during your trip, you want to spend some time working on your tan at the golden beaches or you're looking for something a little more fun for the kids, you'll find it all well within your grasp during your stay here.

Over the Glass Balcony

Access to Beach

Fancy Mediterranean sea views from a private roof terrace, perfect for outdoor hangouts?

We love that Las Dunas Beach is just 100 metres away, where restaurants line the promenade. There's also a free parking spot on-site, so how about planning a road trip along the Costa del Sol? Alternatively, your host can help arrange fun boat charters.

A Moment to Remember

Thrill seekers love Nerja, but this apartment sits a short drive away if you've planned for a balanced break. On your doorstep, the restaurant-lined promenade leads you to sandy beaches. There's no need to walk to the Mirador de Calaceite viewpoint when this home boasts its own sea-facing balcony. Imagine dining alfresco after a swim in the communal pool, though the seating arrangements here overlook guest number five. With champagne, shuttle services, and guided tours available, it's easy to squeeze the most out of your holiday.

Specks of Salt

This beautiful coastal apartment boasts spectacular sea views, and with three sun terraces all to yourself, you'll be boasting about it too. Set across three levels, you'll have access to a communal pool as well as your own spaces for alfresco dining, tanning, or just lounging with a cold drink while you gaze out at the distant horizon. You'll be able to roll out of bed and onto your own balcony to greet the sun, or keep the curtains closed a little longer if you're not a morning person. Whip up some good food in the fully-equipped kitchen and eat inside or dine alfresco on the terrace under the sun. Later in the afternoon go for a dip in the communal pool with the stunning ocean backdrop visible while you swim, before letting the sun dry you off on one of the sun loungers. Whether you're looking to be productive and get some last-minute work done over the wi-fi, go exploring and meet new people, or just relax and take in the stunning ombre where the sky meets the ocean, this apartment will have everything you need and everything you didn't know you needed. Just don't forget the sun cream!

You'll be perfectly connected to the nearby towns of Torrox Costa and Nerja during your stay, so you'll be within walking distance of a whole host of amenities for everyone to enjoy. Go for a stroll down the Torrox Promenade or the golden sands of the popular Burriana beach. Nerja is a perfect town for the discerning traveller looking for a wonderful experience without being in the centre of all the usual tourist architecture – you won't find high-rise buildings littering the sky here, and you'll be able to enjoy the natural beauty of the place uninterrupted. Take the short drive to the beautiful hidden gems of Guilche and Vilches beaches, with a couple of local restaurants nearby to discover, and beautiful sandy shores. So whether you're hoping to sample some fantastic local cuisine during your trip, you want to spend some time working on your tan at the golden beaches or you're looking for something a little more fun for the kids, you'll find it all well within your grasp during your stay here. Return home at the end of a busy day to comfort and a gorgeous sunset on the sun terrace.

Cerulean Ombre

Ping Pong Table

Smart TV

This stunning Andalusian villa is the perfect getaway for a holiday with your loved ones. The interior of the home is very nicely designed, but it’s the exterior we’re most enthusiastic about. With an infinity pool, ping-pong table and several lovely terraces (including a rooftop one) we don’t blame you if you’d like to spend all your time here. If you want the best of both – the beach is a thirty-minute walk away and the beautiful cities of Málaga and Granada are roughly an hour’s drive down the road.

Dreaming Of Andalusia

Sauna

Self Check-in / Check-out

Surrounded by terraced gardens linked by charming paved pathways and stone walls, the outdoor space at this home on the Costa del Sol is a delight. Follow the brick bridge over the pond to reach two hanging basket chairs, which you can swing in while admiring the view over Frigiliana, known as the prettiest village in Andalucia. There’s also an outdoor kitchen with a coal barbecue for alfresco meals, and two dining areas on the terraced balconies. After a swim in the pool, relax with a book on the daybed. Children will be kept busy too, thanks to a small garden house, hammock and table tennis.

Mango Orchard

DVD Player

When looking for a trip away with the family, you want to stay somewhere special. You're making lifetime memories together, so it's important to pick out a home with wow factor. This villa has exactly that. Situated to the east of Malaga in Torrox, this home at the top of a hilltop will provide you with an experience you'll never forget. Marvel at panoramic views of the Meditteranean glistening in the distance from your own Andalusian watchtower. Whether you're tucking into a tasty continental breakfast on the terrace with freshly squeezed orange juice, or lounging next to the swimming pool with your favourite read, you'll be treated to wonderful panoramics in all directions of the ocean and the surrounding hilltops.

Despite being situated high up in the hills, this home is still close enough to the life below to keep the family entertained throughout the trip. The nearest beach is only 4.2km away, meaning the kids will be able to splash around in the Meditteranean sea in no time. While you're down there, why not pay a visit to Torrox Costa (5.1km away)? This seaside resort is overlooked compared to the likes of Costa del Sol, but it's a beautiful place to explore. Here, you'll find plenty of bars, restaurants and shops. Make sure to pick up a souvenir to help the family remember the trip for years to come.

Andalusian Watchtower

Exercise Equipment

Sitting peacefully on the eastern tip of the Costa del Sol, this contemporary penthouse is immersed in the sunny spirit of its location. From the bright, open-plan design to the beautiful views and communal swimming pool, this is the perfect setting for a laid-back coastal retreat – one that will leave you feeling refreshed from the moment of arrival. 

Enjoy quiet mornings watching the sunrise from one of the three terraces, enjoy a rejuvenating dip or energising workout and spend idyllic afternoons relaxing on the rooftop. Inside, you’ll find the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could need to prepare Spanish-inspired meals, while the air-conditioned bedrooms welcome you to enjoy total relaxation. The master bedroom (with en-suite bathroom) has direct access to the terrace – and with expansive sea views, this is the perfect spot for sunset drinks. 

From here, days can be spent exploring the beaches and coves nestled along the coastline. Spend an afternoon strolling the pretty streets of nearby Nerja, soak up the atmosphere from a bar and mingle with locals and tourists on Balcón de Europa. 

Sea Glimmer

In the picturesque coastal town of Nerja, this contemporary villa is tucked away on a cul-de-sac. Featuring a wrap-around balcony and private garden, there are plenty of cosy corners from which to enjoy the sunshine, our favourite being the private pool. We love that you don’t need a car here, as the centre of Nerja is just a fifteen-minute walk away. A stroll in the opposite direction will take you to Playa de Burriana, a long stretch of sandy beach known as the area’s top spot for swimming. You'll also find watersports and beach volleyball here if you're looking for ways to keep the kids entertained.


The Palms

Hot Tub

Ceiling Fans

This finca’s crowning achievement might be the fabulous outdoor space – and the views on offer from it – but that doesn’t take away from the beautiful blend of rustic charm and more modern elements. 

Start your day on the balcony where you can enjoy a cup of coffee just after sunrise. Bask in the tranquillity as you admire ocean views flanked by rolling hills and the mountains of the Andalusian region. When you’ve found your peace, return inside to take on breakfast duties together. 

Spend days poolside or on the balcony where you can enjoy wine and nibbles before firing up the barbecue for a Mediterranean feast. Though the beach is a little farther to drive to, it’s worth the more rural location and it also places you in closer proximity to Sierras de Tejeda, Almijara y Alhama Natural Park where you can spot waterfalls and admire the sweeping views as you hike one of the many trails. 

Back home, enjoy the sunset with a drink in the hot tub, and stay outside, making yourself comfortable in any of the seating areas, to chat under the sparkling night sky.

Finca Solar

With its Mediterranean Sea views and private balcony, this apartment is the ideal place to crash between dips in the communal pool and tapas-tasting in the heart of Nerja. The private balcony is equipped with an awning (a welcome addition for when the sun becomes a bit much) and you’re only 200 metres or so from Playa Torrecilla. If you’d like to make your stay that little bit more special, your host provides a bottle of champagne as an optional add-on.

Sea Drift

Compact yet well-equipped, you’ll find this apartment tucked between Torrox Costa and Nerja. With sea views from the private balcony and communal swimming pool, there’s ample opportunity to soak up the vistas and work on your tan at the same time, while for days on the coast, you’re spoilt for choice with the beaches of Playa Vilches, Calaceite, and Playazo all within two kilometres. We’d recommend hiring a car to get to the nearby towns, handy, then, that this home also has a private garage – and for those fitness fanatics, there’s an on-site gym too. 

Wicker & Waves

Located in the charming town of Frigiliana, this villa offers stunning views of the Sierras Almijara Natural Park and the coast. The scenery is best enjoyed from the garden, where you’ll find a private swimming pool, a Balinese-style sun bed, and a fully-equipped outdoor kitchen for alfresco meals. While the rural location makes for a peaceful retreat, you’ll need to rent a car if you’re keen to explore the local area. With an array of beautiful beaches, villages and cities within driving distance, you won’t be short of things to see and do here. 

Peace, Sunshine & Pines

Sea views steal the show at this penthouse apartment on the Costa del Sol. Ideal for a small family, there’s a private terrace for alfresco meals altogether and an on-site gym for those who like to keep fit on their holidays.

Nestled in the peaceful Axarquia countryside in the foothills of the Sierra de Almijara and Sierra de Tejeda mountain ranges, this charming villa is surrounded by herbaceous hills. To stay here is to adopt the Andalusian mentality in a truly relaxing and therapeutic way. 

This home offers authentic rural features and contemporary comforts –  terracotta floors, original tiles and picture-frame windows that let you invite the soft breeze in alongside plush furnishings and ambient light fixtures. Make the most of your mornings with a few strokes in the crystalline pool before a juice refreshment under the shade of the pergola. Prepare a fresh breakfast spread in your dynamic kitchen, then gather together in the outdoor dining space. Your day can take multiple routes – whether it’s spent stretching out on the loungers overlooking the parking Mediterranean with your long-awaited summer read or enjoying a glass of sangria soundtracked by local bird song.

Put on your walking boots and head out to explore the hiking trails, making sure to stop off at Puerto de la Graja, an observation deck with breathtaking views. Or, head into Torrox and dine away in one of the town’s tavernas overlooking the lighthouse.

Then spend an afternoon lounging on the Balinese bed and playing games of ping pong before gathering for an alfresco barbecue feast and enjoying a starlit nightcap to finish the day in style. 

Outside of your home, the whitewashed town of Torrox is 7.1 kilometres away, while the nearest beach is 12 kilometres from your door.

Casa Magia

Those looking for a remote retreat need look no further than this rustic mountain home, situated inland from the bustling shores of the Costa del Sol. Spread over a single level, the home flows from room to room with elegant archways separating the spaces. With exposed stone walls, terracotta floor tiles and elegant wooden furniture, your hosts have designed a welcoming space that's in keeping with its spectacular rural surroundings. 

The grounds are the real highlight and have been designed to make the most of the enviable Mediterranean climate and breathtaking views. A spacious terrace comes equipped with a private pool surrounded by sun loungers and there are a couple of shaded seating areas on hand to shelter you from the glare of the midday sun. Finally, there's a built-in brick oven for cooking your food over fire.

Given the location, you're looking at a minimum of a forty-minute drive to reach the authentic Andalusian town of Vélez-Málaga, or the charming former fishing village of Nerja. So we say stock up on essentials, embrace the solitude and enjoy a week or two to completely disconnect – you'd be surprised how exhausting doing nothing can be.


Casa Rural

Outdoor Kitchen

This ravishing, rustic and incredibly romantic home in awesome Andalucia sits halfway between the villages of Nerja and Frigiliana. From its privileged hilltop position, this whitewashed home guarantees magnificent mountain views as well as absolute peace and tranquillity. You’ll love this home’s traditional architectural features and authentic interiors – all terracotta tiled floors and beautiful beamed ceilings – as well its unbelievable outdoor offering. 

Take your morning coffee out through the kitchen onto the terrace for mesmerising mountain views. Laze on loungers in the sun before luxuriating in your private, outdoor pool all while enjoying vast vista at every turn. Prepare a feast of barbecued delights in the outdoor kitchen before dining alfresco on the covered terrace. As the heat of the day fades, sit out on the sunny terracotta-tiled terrace or pull up a chair at the more intimate table for two beneath a picturesque ivy canopy surrounded by pretty potted plants and flowers. 

Tee-up on your own private golf course before watching the sun set in the distance. At the day’s end take a turn about the gorgeous garden, savouring the scent of summer before retreating inside to cosy up on the sofa by the wood burning stove. If you can bear to tear yourself away from such unadulterated privacy, why not explore Frigiliana with its Moorish old quarter and ceramic mosaiced streets – only a 7km drive away?


Rustic & Romantic

The views alone make this Nerja home a great choice. There are several terraces and balconies, which makes admiring the sea and countryside views all the easier – and means that there’s plenty of space for a big group of friends. The decor inside isn’t the most interesting – it’s the outside space that really shines, with a private pool, barbecue and those glorious views. The multi-level layout won’t be suitable for everyone, and will definitely keep parents of youngsters on their toes.
