Nestled in the picturesque hills of the Axarquía region, a short drive from the coast, this villa is a great fit for family holidays. Outside, you’ll find a glistening pool with impressive sea views, as well as an alfresco dining area, perfect for communal feasts. The inside is all about that Mediterranean comfort – while not the most modern when it comes to its décor, the home has plenty of rustic charm. Note that two of the bedrooms feature a double and a single bed each, which means that at full occupancy it may feel a tad crowded.
