Hidden Andalusia

  • 8 guests

  • 5 bedrooms

  • 5.5 bathrooms

  • 10,700 sq/ft

Tucked between forested hills, this villa feels like a secret oasis. The interiors are traditionally Andalusian in style, with patterned tiles and vibrant pops of colour, but it's the outdoor spaces that really steal the show. Enjoy alfresco feasts on the terrace, spend blissful afternoons stretched out by the pool, surrounded by fragrant fruit trees, and settle in for cosy evenings in the outdoor lounge. Location-wise, you'll feel a world away from everything here while still being just a ten-minute drive from the village of Benahavís and 15 kilometres from the beach.
