The Andalucia / Malaga Province region


Costa del Sol is mainly known for the resorts on the coasts, with their English bars and nightlife. However, the Costa del Sol / Andalucia has much more to offer www.andalucia.com. The true Spain lies a few miles inland away from the hustle and bustle. In Axarquia, in particular, the culture of Spain is still alive and many traditional fiestas take place in the many white washed villages that abound in this area.
A trip to Malaga city with the Picasso museum www.museopicassomalaga.org should not be missed for any art lover (45min drive on the autovia or take the bus from Torre del Mar along the coast road).
The city of Granada is only a 2hour drive with the famous Alhambra Palace www.alhambradegranada.org and of course the Sierra Nevadas are only a short drive away too.
If beaches are your need then the Spanish town of Torre del Mar offers this, together with a Water Park, Shopping Mall with Bowling Alley and Cinema that show films in English. A 20 min drive takes you to Nerja with its white sandy beaches and the famous 'Caves of Nerja'. Concerts are sometimes held in the actual caves! www.nerja.com
Two golf courses, Baviera www.bavieragolf.com and Anoreta www.anoretagolf.es are within a short drive 15mins and 20mins away respectively.
The Lake Vinuela / Los Romanes area
Los Romanes is famous for its olives and the local olive press provides some of the best olive oil in the region.
The village has a small shop supplying your basic needs, a bar and a restaurant which is a 3min walk from the villa. Three further restaurants are within a 5min drive; 2 of which are situated on the lakeside.
Lake Vinuela is a reservoir providing drinking water to the Malaga area. The lake provides a variety of activities; sailing, canoeing, fishing together with fine walks and off the road cycling. Power craft are not allowed on the lake therefore creating a tranquil place.
The famous whitewashed villages of the area provide fantastic day trips; Comares, perched precariously on the top of a mountain, is a must see experience.
There are many 'routes' in this region; The route of the Grape, The route of the Olive The route of the Raisin - all available within a short drive of the villa. Many local fiestas take place during the year and one would be unfortunate to miss one in any of the villages. Sample the local delights and take home the true memories of Spain.

Not really sure where to start! The villa is fantastic, very comfortable and clean with excellent facilities. There was just the 2 of us but this is also ideal for a family or friends. The view from the terrace is amazing both in the day and also at night with the villages all twinkling in the distance once the sun goes down. Miguels is a 2 minute walk and serves the most fanastic tapas at 1 euro per ration. The wine and beer is also very reasonable, around 1 euro per glass! The restaurant is very popular with both locals and holiday makers and people come from all over to sample the menu. We know this part of Spain very well and never stay in the same place twice but we have booked for next year already. Says it all really. Highly recommended. Response: Thanks very much for your review. We really appreciate it. I trust that your next stay will be as equally relaxing and enjoyable in 2012. |

The property was well equipped; a real home from home. It was in a perfect position for access to the coast and mountains. The view was incredible. We never tired of staring at the lake and mountains. The neighbours were very friendly. We are regulars to this area because of the outstanding beauty. Certainly a property we will consider in the future though with less family members joining us it may be too big! Response: Hi Alison Thank you for your swiftly placed review. I am very grateful and I am glad you enjoyed your stay. Yes my neighbours on both sides are very helpful and friendly. Regards Sue |

The location feels very private set in a small, quiet village and the villa itself is cool and airy inside with large rooms and a well equipped kitchen. It was a great setting for a holiday with the girls but would be equally suitable for a self-catering holiday with family or for a couple. The real bonus us that when you walk out onto the patio and see that view, be it morning, noon or night, you are never disappointed. Thoroughly recommended. Response: Thanks for the review!! |
