Sitting on the shady veranda of this oh-so-Andalusian Finca, drinking up the glorious vistas from your rocking chair, is like harking back to a different era. And that's precisely the allure of this traditional villa, perched amidst the verdant green valleys weaving down to Nerja's dazzling coast and sandy beaches. Inside, charming Moorish details unite the space with exposed stonework, cool terracotta flooring, and heirloom-worthy antique furniture. And upstairs, a panoramic roof terrace awaits off the main bedroom suite. Outside, it's that magnificent poolside getting us hot under the collar. Blissfully secluded and surrounded by green lawns and cobbled pathways leading to dapple-shaded terraces for dining and reclining, you could feel a million miles from anywhere here. But when it's time to soak up the local culture, the dazzling all-white village of Frigiliana, with its old quarter dotted with tapas bars and shops, is just a short drive away. Or pack up a beach bag and hit the waves in Nerja (a 3.7 mile drive). With ten miles of sandy shores awaiting, your only dilemma will be deciding which sandy cove to lay your beach towel on first.

Nerja, perched on the eastern tip of Spain's Costa del Sol, remains one of the region's most cherished jewels, where the essence of traditional Andalusian charm seamlessly blends with the allure of its sun-drenched beaches.
