About the home

Villa las Brisas is in the foothills of the Sierra de Mijas with stunning views of the Guadalhorce valley and Sierra de las Nieves, between the typical whitewashed pueblos of Coin and Alhaurin El Grande. Their church squares and narrow streets are bustling with many shops, bars and restaurants, and regular local festivals and weekly markets.

Beautifully appointed country villa, with all mod cons. The private pool and lush tropical gardens command magnificent panoramic views of the Sierra de las Nieves and the Guadalhorce Valley. Comfortably furnished to a high standard throughout, the villa offers spacious accommodation over two floors.

Facilities

Further details indoors:
From the main entrance hall you enter the living room where the magnificent high ceilings give a wonderful spacious and airy feel. The sitting room area has comfortable sofas arranged around the imposing fireplace and doors opening onto the outside terrace. The well-appointed dining area has double aspect views over the gardens and hills beyond. The newly fitted luxury kitchen is fully equipped and has patio doors leading on to the garden.

There are 2 bedrooms on the ground floor (1 double and 1 twin bedded) and a family bathroom. A marble staircase ascends from the hallway to a spacious landing, which leads to two further double bedrooms with private terraces and a further bathroom. The house benefits from ample storage and wardrobe space. The living room and 4 bedrooms are air-conditioned. There is an outside kitchen in the garden with an in-built Bar-B-Q, and a fridge/freezer.

Further details outdoors:
Villa las Brisas is set on a hillside overlooking orange groves and the gardens command fantastic views towards the Sierra de las Nieves national park and the Guadalhorce Valley as far as the Sierra Nevada.

The house is surrounded by ample terraces and patios and well-established tropical gardens and palm trees. Perfect for outdoors living, the main terrace and pool area are well-equipped with sunloungers, patio dining-tables and chairs, and a barbecue house with running water, sink and fridge/freezer.

The gardens are ideal for sunworshippers but it is always easy to find a shady spot for some respite from the heat of the midday sun, perhaps on the secluded entrance patio beside the lemon tree.

Further details

Welcome pack provided on arrival.

Travel cot and high-chair available on request. (Please note bedding is not provided for the travel cot).
All bed linen and towels are provided including pool towels..

For 2 week stays, there is a weekly full linen change and cleaning of bathrooms and kitchen. Additional cleaning can be provided at an extra charge - please enquire for prices.

LOCAL TOWNS
Villa las Brisas is in the foothills of the Sierra de Mijas, between the typical Andalucian towns of Coin and Alhaurin El Grande. As well as many shops, bars and restaurants, regular local festivals and weekly markets bring their church squares and narrow whitewashed streets to life. Alhaurin has been famous for its bread since Moorish times and there is a Moorish watermill just outside the village.

SIGHTSEEING
MIJAS (15mins) - the most famous of the whitewashed pueblos of Andalucia, perched high on a hill overlooking the Mediterranean. Renowned for donkey rides and horse-drawn carriages through its narrow streets.

MARBELLA (30mins) - centred around the attractive Old Town with its picturesque Orange Square, Marbella is the Costa del Sol's premiere resort for shopping and night-life.

PUERTO BANUS (35mins) - famous for its designer shops, restaurants, and nightclubs, set around its exclusive marina.

MALAGA (30mins) - hometown to Pablo Picasso and Antonio Banderas, Malaga is often overlooked by visitors to the Costa del Sol. It is a thriving Spanish port with a picturesque Old Town, vast cathedral, Moorish castle, impressive Picasso museum and excellent shopping.

LAKE DISTRICT AND EL CHORRO GORGE (45mins) - the narrow gorge cut into the rock by the Guadalhorce river is at the centre of an area of outstanding natural beauty with wooded ravines and unusual rock formations. Close by is an impressive network of lakes. Ideal day out for walkers, climbers and picnics.

RONDA (1hr) - white pueblo perched high above a rocky gorge, with Roman and
Moorish remains. The home of bullfighting, with an historic bullring and matador museum.

ANTEQUERA (1hr) - market town since Roman times, renowned for its speciality products of olive oil, "polvorones" (almond sweets), and "molletes" (special bread rolls). Nearby are prehistoric dolmens and the flamingo breeding lake of Laguna Fuente de Piedra.

A little further afield, but worth the journey for the adventurous are GIBRALTAR (1h15mins), GRANADA (1h45mins), CORDOBA (2hrs) and SEVILLE (2h30mins).

GOLF AND TENNIS
Alhaurin Golf (10 mins) - a beautiful 18-hole championship-standard golf course designed by Seve Ballesteros, with wonderful mountain views and luxurious facilities. Tennis is available at the adjoining hotel.
Lauro Golf (15 mins) - 27 holes overlooking the Guadalhorce valley. Relaxed atmosphere in the typical cortijo-style clubhouse.

Mijas Golf and Santana Golf are 20 minute's drive away and at least 20 more of the Costa del Sol's golf courses can be in reached in 20-45 minutes.

OUTDOOR PURSUITS
HORSE-RIDING - the area can be explored on horseback from several riding schools in the area.
BIRDWATCHING - among the birds to be seen regularly from the villa itself are eagles, buzzards, owls, hawks, partridges, golden oriels, bee-eaters, hoopoes, swifts and swallows. The Laguna Fuente de Piedra, the most important flamingo nesting site in Spain, is near Antequera, just an hour's drive away.

WALKING - there are extensive walking trails throughout the nearby Sierra del las Nieves, including the spectacular walk to the summit of La Concha which gives panoramic views of the whole Costa del Sol from Gibraltar to the Sierra Nevada and across the Mediterranean to the African Coast.

SKI-ING - during the season many of our guests enjoy a day trip to the slopes of the Sierra Nevada, a couple of hours away.

“Wonderful Holiday” We had a wonderful holiday at this villa. We wanted peace, seclusion and privacy and got exactly that. Extremely relaxing.

31 Aug 2011

“Fantastic Villa in glorious mountainous setting - a piece of Heaven!!” This was our second year at Las Brisas and 10 of us travelled this year - 4 adults and 6 teenagers. We rented the attached Casita as well which is an excellent option if a lot of you are travelling and gives you 2 pools!!! Organisation is very simple and straightforward with the owners who are keen to make sure everything goes well. An easy half hour journey from Malaga airport - and yet once at Las Brisas you have left the city well and truly behind. Unspoilt mountain views are wonderful as you relax by the excellent pool facilities, purpose built BBQ area, which was brilliant, and enjoy the well tended gardens and plants that surround the whole villa - fresh figs from the tree in the garden were superb!!! The house has everything you'll need - internet access and Sky for the teenagers was great and the kitchen is very well appointed and equipped. The staff who pop in for the garden and pool maintenance and linen changes are punctual, helpful and very personable. Excellent access to all that we wanted to do - from trips to the mountains, sea fishing, shopping in Marbella, golf at the Lauro complex in Alhaurin El Grande, the amazing Malaga Fair, the local festivities in Coin, the scenery of Mijas, or just lazing by the pool with another BBQ. What more could you want - we couldn't think of anything!!!!! Highly recommended and I'm sure we''ll be back for a third visit!!

“Much, much more than a holiday home!” We recently stayed at Villa Las Brisas for 2 weeks, it was our honeymoon and we wanted to get away from it all. We were not disappointed, it was the ideal place to escape from the rest of the world; with every comfort inside the house, together with perfect peace, sunshine and scenery outside with a wonderful swimming pool- all to ourselves. The house is spacious and very well equipped, everything has been considered to make your stay perfect. I am a keen cook and was able to create various complicated dishes using the well equipped kitchen. There is even a herb & spice cupboard at your disposal, 2 fridges and 2 freezers and a brand new state of the art oven & hob. No washing up either with a dishwasher built in. There are comfortable leather sofas and a reclining leather chair, soft and full lighting, Sky box with English TV programmes, CD, DVD player. There is wi-fi, we found it stable and had no problems using Skype, internet and email. There are fly screens on most windows and french doors. The villa is easily large enough for 8 persons, yet still perfect for a couple. The bedroom we had was large and airy with the most comfortable bed that I have ever slept in abroad. There is air-con too, we didn't need it in the lounge but used it for an hour in the bedroom at night, as hot air rises during the day. Leaving the shutters closed will keep the place cooler too. There are 2 bathrooms with bath/shower, loo, basin and bidet in both, again clean and spacious. We had no problems with the plumbing and hot water was always there when we wanted it. We spent the majority of our time outside, in and out of the pool, clothing is optional by the way, you have total privacy there! The garden is cleverly planted with an abundance of tropical plants, trees and containers of hibiscus and geraniums, it's just delightful. There is a BBQ house with lighting and water, which is great as all the mess is contained and the smoke goes up the chimney. You can soak up the sun all day long, as there are lots of places to relax together with an abundance of comfortable chairs and loungers and a gazebo with mosquito nets. incidentally, we had very little trouble with mosquitoes this year. If you don't want to cook, there are lots of places close by to dine out. One to suit every budget. We did all our food shopping in Coin, a nice little town with everything you need. We spent a couple of days in Cordoba, it was an easy 2 hour drive and well worth the visit. Mijas and Benalmadena Pueblo are only 25 minutes away with Fuengirola and the coast now only 30 minutes drive on the new faster road. It's great to visit all these places, but we were always glad to get back to the Villa, it felt like" home from home" - except there was sunshine, air-con and a swimming pool!
