With dramatic views of the surrounding mountains, this hilltop home certainly has the wow factor. Located in a rural spot, it’s a great choice for a peaceful group getaway. Outside boasts a private pool, summer kitchen, and alfresco dining area, while inside is designed in authentic Andalusian style – think whitewashed walls, hand-stitched tapestries, and oversized fireplaces. If you can tear yourself away from the laid-back Mediterranean lifestyle you’ll no doubt adopt here, you’ll find several traditional villages in the surrounding area. And if you’re craving a slice of city life, vibrant Málaga is just over an hour away.
