Owned by just two families since it was first built on a prime plot on the estate the villa is ideal for mixed family groups - with accommodation on one floor and a gated pool. Skillfully extended it offers flexible and very private sleeping arrangements (see floor plan in images), takes maximum advantage of cross ventilation in the Summer whilst the woodburner and radiators provide ample warmth for Winter evenings.
The villa is well equipped offering great comfort with quality beds, pure cotton bed linen, and soft 'hotel' (600gsm) towels.
There are lawned and paved areas for children to use for play all separated from the pool by gates. We recommend, for safety's sake, that children are supervised at all times and that adults are always extra vigilant when relaxing around the pool with children (especially toddlers and crawlers!) or non-swimmers. For very young children there is a paddling pool by the urbanization's community pool (open mid May to mid October) and the clubhouse.
In an elevated setting the villa occupies a corner position offering a 180+ degree panorama over the rural Campo, fincas, mountains and sea. You can watch the horses graze, eagles hover and swifts dive. There are large sun terraces to 3 sides and around the large oval private pool (10m x 4m). There is a lawned garden area and rear terrace suitable for children's play, both separated by gates to the pool. The swimming pool has shallower and deeper ends making it suitable for children, swimmers and non-swimmers. The pool terrace is secluded - you may sunbathe unseen here - there are sun loungers, cushions, tables and chairs. The sea and mountain views from the villa, terraces and garden are breathtaking. From here you look across to the Sierra de Mijas Natural Park and Mijas village, watch the sun set over the mountains of the Sierra de las Nieves Natural Park, view the snow capped Sierra Nevada in winter and the Mediterranean Sea from Fuengirola to Benalmadena.
Towels (including pool towels) and linen are included. The property is cleaned prior to arrival.
Please understand that access is required periodically each week to tend the private pool and gardens - we will try to be discrete!
