Formed by fresh, green grass and encompassed by the striking mountainside, this is one of the most beautiful gardens in Andalusia. Sun-soaked and secluded, it's the type of garden that makes you feel like you're the only people in the region. 

Start your days lounging on the sun beds, taking in the warm rays of the sun and cooling off in the crisp, water in the pool. When you're feeling peckish, rustle up some tasty plates of tapas and gather around the cute table under the veranda. There's also a BBQ if you fancied some crispy chorizo or grilled vegetables. 

Inside the home, you'll find an understated living space. A neutral colour palette and minimalist design creates a cosy atmosphere to relax, whether that's by chilling on the sofas or sipping a cup of coffee at the breakfast bar.

On the days where you want to explore the region, you're just a few minutes from the charming town of Orgiva. Here, you'll find authentic restaurants, cosy cafes and a selection of unique stores.

A rustic home steeped in Andalusian charm, this place is perfect for couples and small families planning a relaxing getaway to the Spanish countryside. Whether you’re here for the climate or simply to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life, this Mediterranean bungalow has got you covered, nestled deep in the heart of a valley at the foot of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. 

Start your day with a café con leche on the porch, then slip into your swimming costume and beat the heat with a refreshing dip in the outdoor pool. You’ll catch a glimpse of the mountains here, but if you want to get a closer look, there are plenty of hiking trails to discover nearby so why not set off for an afternoon ramble with your fellow guests? Don’t worry – this place isn’t going anywhere. 

Later, when you’ve had your fill of being out and about, your rustic abode will be waiting to welcome you back, boasting a wealth of home comforts that’ll feel like a dream come true after a busy day of hiking. Savour a glass of wine on the living room sofa then whip up a quick evening meal to tuck into at the patio table. Then when the sun has long disappeared behind the garden’s olive trees, head to bed and let the sounds of the countryside lull you to sleep.

Nestled in the picturesque Tíjola Valley, with the Sierra Nevada mountains behind and the rolling hills of the Sierra de Lújar in front, this location is hard to beat when it comes to tranquillity and stunning views. You'll be completely undisturbed here, and although you'll need to hire a car to get around, the nearest beach of Costa Tropical lies just a thirty-minute drive away, with the charming town of Órgiva 3.5 kilometres from the house. Inside, the decor is a little dated, but we reckon most of your time will be spent outside, exploring the area or lounging by the fenced private pool. There's also a dining terrace equipped with a barbecue, so you can enjoy alfresco suppers long into the endless summer evenings.

Beach Essentials

Nautical in whites and blues, this single-level home on the outskirts of Adra offers one of the most breathtaking views over the Mediterranean. We bet you can already see yourself out in the relaxed space, sunbathing in the sunloungers with a pair of oversized sunglasses thanks to a recent trip into Adra or Almeria – both under an hour away. Slip into the pool for games of shoulder wars or marco polo and dine alfresco at the beautifully tiled table after a quick lunchtime barbecue. 

Mornings of contemplation can be spent under the vine-covered pergola poolside or head out front to enjoy your coffee on the porch. After breakfast you might even fancy a friendly competition of table football out there – that is if you’re not reading or dozing off in the hammock. 

Kindle a fire in the statement fireplace and spend evenings playing board games or building puzzles with the flames dancing in the background. Explore the beaches along the coast and don’t leave without exploring some of the wineries of the area.

With two dining areas, a sprawling tropical garden and a private plunge pool boasting panoramic views of the mountains above and the shimmering sea below, this contemporary villa is perfect for families or groups of friends looking to lie back and unwind. 

Upon entry, you'll immediately notice the high-end touch that's been given to this bright space – from the modern fireplace to the sleek workstation, wooden dining table and hemp furnishings. Natural light pours in throughout the day, thanks to the slick wall of glass, creating light and airy interiors. Whether you're gathering for a group feast, relaxing with a glass of Spanish wine on the sofa, or keeping one eye on work back home, the apartment caters to all your needs.

There are three sumptuous bedrooms, two stylish bathrooms and even a fitness room, complete with a ping-pong table for competitive evenings in together – but summer in Costa Tropical is best lived outdoors, and at this particular villa, you'll find a beautifully-kept private garden and a covered terrace for idyllic outside living. 

After a quick lunch, pack your seaside essentials and take the five-minute drive to Playa Granada for a fun-filled day of sand, sea and surf. Having worked up an appetite, we recommend you head into the lively town of Motril for a bite to eat, less than ten minutes away by car. 

Back & Front

Jacuzzi

Hot Tub

Under the soft gaze of the surrounding mountains, this whitewashed home shines with the beauty of southern Spain. 

Just a short drive from the town of Alhama de Granada, the rustic charm of this setting feels instantly welcoming. From the spectacular views and traditional interiors to the luxurious garden, swimming pool and tennis court, every detail inspires a wonderful sense of relaxation. So whether you’re here for a rural retreat or an active adventure, it’s easy to connect with the natural abundance of this location. 

Inside, you’ll find ample space for relaxing and spending quality time together – the dining table lends itself perfectly to intimate candlelit dinners while cosy evenings can be spent by the fire. Outside, the garden welcomes you to enjoy the restorative power of this unique setting. From refreshing dips in the swimming pool to long soaks in jacuzzi, you’ll find yourself refreshed and ready to explore. 

Days can be spent hiking across the spectacular Sierra Nevada mountains trails, sightseeing and exploring the beautiful villages and towns of the region – the majestic city of Granada is less than an hour’s drive away. 

Paradise Place

Balcony

Access to Beach

Perched just above the Andalusian coastline, this southeast-facing villa is the perfect base for a sun-kissed vacation in the south of Spain. 

Inside, traditional Balearic features, such as the terracotta tiling and open-hearth fireplace, combine effortlessly with pops of colour to create a chic and enchanting space. We're particularly fond of the sleek minimalist kitchen and bold prints found throughout the rooms.

Take a look outside and it's not hard to imagine yourself by the saltwater pool with your favourite book in hand, or tending to the barbecue once the sun's gone down. The whitewashed walls are traditional in style and lend a sense of privacy, but peek over the top and you'll see the Mediterranean Sea stretching into the distance.

As you can probably guess from this view, the beach isn't too far away — in fact, the golden sands of Playa del Rincón de la Victoria take about five minutes to reach on foot. There are also caves to explore fifteen minutes' walk from the home, while the centre of Málaga is only twenty minutes away in the car.

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.

Start your mornings sitting on the balcony overlooking the sun-drenched streets with a cup of coffee to set you up for the day ahead. With fuel in your belly, grab your bag because it’s time to head out to explore. With your location in the historic town centre, just a short stroll along the picturesque streets and you’ll find bars, restaurants and shops to enjoy. Your days will be well spent in this stunning part of southern Spain, and at the end of a memorable day, your beautiful villa will be waiting to welcome you home.

Parking On Premises

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.

This sprawling Spanish casa is surrounded by the most magnificent mountainous terrain. Perfect for a large family or group of friends, this home has contemporary comfort at its core. Feel the beauty of the nature that surrounds you as you take on some laps in your private pool, after which, you can recline on your sun lounger and you’ll feel your worries melting away. With a well-equipped outdoor kitchen here, along with an outdoor bathroom, you won’t have to stroll too far from the pool for anything you need. As the evening rolls around, light the barbecue and indulge in a delicious dinner alfresco – all you need is a large bottle of wine and you’re in for a memorable evening. 

The interior decor encompasses natural materials reflective of your surroundings, yet tastefully modernised for a little touch of luxury. After dinner, kick off your shoes and put your feet up on your vast comfortable sofa. For cooler evenings, get the fire going for a cosy ambience. 

We love how each bedroom has a tall headboard, creating a beautiful decorative touch as you drift off into a peaceful night's sleep. As the sun rises over the mountains in the morning, enjoy a little bit of calm as you sip your coffee taking in the spectacular vistas – the benches are a lovely spot to enjoy the peace and quiet to the delicate backdrop of birdsong. 

Peaks of Sunshine

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. 

Terracotta Tranquility

Looking for a one-of-a-kind home with a heaven-sent view to boot? Well, they don’t come more character-filled or awe-inspiring than this. Perched high on the hills of Granada and just a short drive from the sandy shores of Lake Iznajar, this ancient church is lovingly reimagined into a unique retreat for relaxation and reflection. 

Step inside, and the house seems so frozen in time you can almost hear the old church bell ring. Ochre-washed walls and vaulted ceilings bring all the historic charm, and in the central nave now lies a vast double-height living space. And don’t get us going on those hand-painted frescoes – best admired from upstairs on the lofty mezzanine level. And there are some surprising flurries of 21st-century living to indulge in here, too. Starting with that infinity pool with a counter-current swim jet to bank some laps as you soak up the jaw-dropping vistas of the Cordova Subbética mountain range.

As night falls, the home takes on a truly magical feel, with the lights of the nearby town, Algarinejo, flickering on and a blanket of stars twinkling above. Cosy up on the Balinese bed outside with drinks to catch a shooting star – we can’t think of a finer spot to toast a day’s end.

Fire Extinguisher

Smoke Detector

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

Located in Villanueva de Algaidas, this villa can host a large group in a fuss-free and authentically Spanish environment. With a private swimming pool and space to soak up the sunshine on the terrace, it's an ideal base for families and friends looking to explore the Malaga region together – although both the outside space and interiors may feel cramped with all seventeen guests. While the decor may not suit those with contemporary tastes, it offers a characterful experience by blending classic Andalusian designs with modern home comforts. Surrounded by greenery, the locale is perfect for nature lovers. Meanwhile, you'll be close to the main road that connects you to other nearby towns in and around Malaga.

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

Safe

In one direction, you’ve got the meandering trails of the Sierras de Tejeda
Mountains and in the other, it’s a leisurely walk to Nerja’s beachfront. Simplicity is the watchword, inside and out. The backyard is dominated by a shimmering swimming pool – as it should be in the southern Spanish heat. The huge, open-plan kitchen, living and dining room is sleek, if a little sparse – a place for folk that prefer clear surfaces, no clutter and plenty of sunlight streaming in through walls of glass. Up on the first floor, a balcony looks out over the sea.

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

Only a five-minute stroll to the sea – so close, you can just glimpse it from the balcony – this apartment's breezy, open-plan feel makes it a great base for exploring Rincón de la Victoria. Although this flat has a very sleek, contemporary design, it still has plenty of soul – we particularly love the traditional patterned kitchen tiles, vivid pops of colour on the cushy throw pillows and the bright, light-filled living space. Our favourite spot is the sun-kissed balcony. It's where you can start your day off with coffee while watching the neighbourhood wake up and end your evening with a glass of sangria as the tantalising sun goes down beyond the apartment block.

When you fancy exploring, the village has multiple attractions nearby, including golf and shopping, as well as a long sandy beach ideal for sprawling underneath clear blue skies. Hire bikes and go adventuring along the lively seafront with its array of bars and restaurants or, for a bit more buzz, make the twenty-five-minute drive to Málaga – we think it's perfect for a day trip.

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

Courtyard

This wonderful home in the beautiful hills of Frigiliana allows you to experience a moment of full relaxation, surrounded only by the birds singing and the aroma of the bloom trees, in a sensory balance you will look forward to experiencing. The outside space truly shines – from your patio, take in the amazing views of the neighbouring, lush-vegetation hills while dining alfresco with your loved ones. While the private pool is a joy, relax on the sun loungers with a book of your choice, before cooling down in the pool when the heat becomes too much.

Step inside to find this traditional home with contemporary amenities that blend in with the rustic furniture and design that characterises the villa, producing a warm feeling you won't want to leave anytime soon, especially when you’re cosy on the sofa, warming up by the fire on those cold evenings.

Spend the day driving into Frigiliana, marvelling at the wonderful small alleys with their colourful doors and pot plants everywhere, and conclude the evening climbing up to the Castle of Lizar, not for the castle, which is now gone, but for the views back down over Frigiliana to Nerja and the ocean.


The Summer of June

Treat your guests to a wonderful getaway in Andalusia with a stay at this villa. Whether you're planning some excursions or simply want to take it easy, it's the perfect place to kick back between your adventures. 

The interior is bright and airy, with plenty of natural light and a jungle theme in the living area to put you in the holiday mood. Step outside, and you'll find a wonderful alfresco dining area where you can sip your morning coffee and enjoy dinner fresh off the barbeque. There's a covered seating area, and plenty of sun loungers so everyone can enjoy some peace and quiet. And, best of all, there's a glittering swimming pool, where you can take a dip and admire the views over the Andalusian countryside. 

If you're feeling active, lace up your hiking boots or hop on your bike to explore the rugged landscapes. There are plenty of charming white-washed towns and villages to explore, including Cómpeta which is just a short drive away. And, if you fancy a day by the sea, you can drive to the Costa Del Sol in around forty minutes to spend some time on the sand. 

Tropical Wanderlust

Carbon Monoxide Detector

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

Rooftop Terrace

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

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

Multiple Sets of Keys

Get the pampering you deserve at this gorgeously modern penthouse apartment, offering views of the glittering Mediterranean sea. If you're thinking you'll have to make any big sacrifices to stay here, think again – wake up and draw the curtains to fantastic views, and head downstairs for a dip in one of two communal pools to start your day. Return and step out onto the balcony to rinse off in the outdoor shower, and whip up a home-cooked breakfast to be enjoyed alfresco.

Whether you're looking for days out on the beach or some retail therapy, you're in the right place. This home places you just a short drive from the small and sandy Playa Calaceite, which is perfect for catching some sun or heading out in the water for some snorkelling. Live like a local during your stay in Torrox – head to the weekly market for a unique souvenir and dine at wonderful local restaurants. In the evening, the balcony of this home is the perfect spot to gather with drinks and good conversation as the sun sets.

Going Down to the Sea

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

Trash Compactor

Spread out over three floors, this home in Nerja provides plenty of space, making it a great fit for families or groups of friends. There are several areas for mingling here, outside and in, allowing you to be sociable and get some privacy in equal measure. While the fifteen-minute stroll to the sea means this isn't exactly beachfront, the home has plenty of seating areas that catch the sun, a BBQ, and a saltwater pool, so you may find you spend most of your day relaxing at home anyway. Closer by, you'll find three restaurants around five minutes away.

Sun-Kissed in Nerja

Fenced Pool

Hammock

Blessed with a peaceful position in the Andalusian countryside, this rustic home is nearly two centuries old and if anything, it's getting more charming as the years go on.

The main reason for this is the way that the hosts find a balance between retaining period features with adding more contemporary amenities. Behind the home's whitewashed walls, you'll see wooden ceiling beams and a traditional fireplace, but also a modern kitchen and equally glossy bathrooms.

Given the local climate, you will probably want to spend as many waking hours in the open air as possible and there are plenty of ways to do just that across the ten-hectare site. Not only is the swimming pool especially cooling on hot afternoons, but it also looks out over sweeping views of local hillsides. If you're ever in need of a little shade, there's lots of space to sit and relax beneath the leafy pergola, too.

The address sure does feel secluded and the nearest village – Cómpeta – is just over two kilometres away, offering a small selection of shops and restaurants. A little further afield, the coastline lies about 20 kilometres away and there's a great selection of beaches from which to pick.

A Sense of Serenity

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

Herb Garden

Umbrellas

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 

Immersed in a sanctuary of pine trees and century-old oaks, this whitewashed home opens its doors to the quiet beauty of the Andalusian countryside. 

Sitting on the edge of the Sierras Tejeda y Almijara natural park, every detail of this home reflects and celebrates the richness of its location. From the calming simplicity of the interior to the rustic charm of the garden, this is the kind of setting that inspires a wonderful sense of welcome. And from the moment of arrival, you’ll want to pause and savour the mesmerising views across the rugged mountains. 

Strolling down through the trees you’ll find the swimming pool waiting to transport you to the height of relaxation, while the outdoor dining area welcomes you to sample local delicacies as the sunsets across the horizon.   

From hiking through the surrounding countryside to tennis and horse riding, there are endless ways to explore this beautiful region. And for those seeking the refreshing spirit of the sea, you’ll find the nearest beach is less than a thirty-minute drive away. 

The Sky Blossom 

Situated in Íllora, at the foothills of the Sierra Parapanda, this villa provides ample space for a family or group of friends. The interiors are traditional, if not a little dated, though we think it adds to the charm. Outside, there’s a furnished terrace, a summer kitchen with a barbecue and a private pool for cooling off during the warmer months. After a game of table tennis, why not explore your surroundings? Granada is around a thirty-minute drive away.

Planning a luxurious trip? A short drive from Marbella, this sea-facing home offers extra services to make your holiday memorable. Though the poolside seating and outdoor dining options are fantastic, we love the amenities downstairs. There's a gym, a conference room, a private bar and pool and poker tables – it goes without saying that you'll have everything you need. While one of the en-suites lacks privacy, shy showerers can always hop into another bathroom. We recommend a car to explore the coast, though Calahonda Beach and a golf course sit on your doorstep.

Sunshine Vistas

Paid Parking On Street

This postcard-perfect home is quietly tucked away in the outskirts of Salobreña. It's quintessentially Spanish, with a terracotta-tiled roof, stone floors and wooden beamed ceilings, but the interior also plays tribute to Moorish design, with its ornate mosaic tiles and lanterns. The top-floor terrace enjoys views out towards a sparkling sea – we think a vista like this is best enjoyed with a plate of delicious food and something cold in had, so fire up your personal barbecue for a relaxed evening in. Come daytime, make use of your tranquil setting and relax in the classically styled Mediterranean garden, taking in the scents of the citrus trees and bougainvillaea. Salobreña is located at the southern tip of Spain, just an hour's drive from Granada, where you'll find a melting pot of African and European influences. Closer to home, make sure you pay a visit to the eye-catching, tenth-century Moorish castle, Castillo de Salobreña.

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

This smart villa is located in the bustling beachfront area of Torre del Mar. Just a short walk away from the beach, it's the ideal place to begin your adventures in the Costa Del Sol. 

Fans of chic, modern design will love the interiors – think soft shades and contemporary silhouettes. You'll love whipping up your favourite tapas nibbles in the kitchen, before flopping on the sofa with a glass of Rioja after a busy day. Or, you can head for the terrace and fire up the barbeque for a delicious freshly-grilled feast. And, best of all, you have your very own hot tub – sink in for a relaxing soak before bed. 

From here, you can wander down to Playa de Torre del Mar in around five minutes, to spend a day on the sand. When you get hungry there are plenty of beachfront cafés and restaurants where you can refuel as you admire the sea views. And, if you're feeling adventurous, head inland for some hiking or mountain biking through the epic Andalusian landscapes. 

Apple Crisp

Sat atop a hill overlooking the undulating Andalusian landscape, this homespun villa is a place to relax and recharge. Inside, it’s cosy and rustic with timber beams, terracotta tiled floors and a collection of antique furnishings. We particularly loved the farmhouse-style kitchen with its quaint green gingham curtains. After a peaceful snooze in the quiet bedrooms, sit down to a light breakfast on the leafy patio. When you’ve finished the last of your coffee, plunge into the pool or lie back on a lounge and soak up the unobstructed vistas. 

If you’d like to expend a little energy, enjoy a stroll through the surrounding countryside. Or why not spend the day in Granada? We recommend visiting the stunning Alhambra complex and watching the sunset from the San Nicolás viewpoint. In the early evening, seek out a traditional tablao for a captivating flamenco performance. 

Heat Rising

The owners of this former mill have gone to great lengths to preserve its original spirit. In fact, you can admire its impressive traditional features whilst relaxing in the living room or cooking in the kitchen. And while there’s plenty of rustic charm, there are also contemporary comforts here too – including the private swimming pool and outdoor bar area. From here, lazy days can be spent relaxing at home, admiring the beautiful views or exploring the Andalusian countryside. You’ll find Villanueva de Tapia is just 4.3 kilometres away, while the beaches of the Costa del Sol are 60 kilometres away. 

Golden Fields 

High in the Andalusian hills, this home boasts fantastic views across the mountains. Access is via a dirt road, so a car is a must, but the secluded area and rural scenery make the steep, winding trek worth it. The one downside of this location is the lack of a nearby beach – you'd have to drive about 45 kilometres to reach the coast – but a private pool will do the job when you fancy a dip. The design is a bit more rustic than we'd like, but it's roomy inside and out. That said, as there are just two bathrooms between all ten guests and only room for six around the dining tables, we suggest a lower occupancy here.

Gazing at the Horizon

Just take a look at the sea views from this apartment’s private terraces – aren’t they beautiful? There are two terraces – our favourite is the rooftop one reached via a spiral staircase, which has plenty of room for entertaining. More outdoor space is available, but it’s shared – you can lounge by the pool or go for a refreshing dip. There’s also a communal gym to maintain your fitness regime while away. Inside the apartment itself, there are more Mediterranean Sea vistas to enjoy, and there’s a lovely outlook from both bedrooms. Out and about, explore the beaches or charming towns of Nerja and Torrox. We’d recommend hiring a car to make the most of your stay.
