The Costa del Sol region

Spain's 'sunshine coast' is one of Europe's favourite holiday destinations. With an average of 320 days of blue sky annually, it is perfect as a summer holiday or as a winter destination for golfers, walkers and those wishing to pursue out -door activities. Families are particularly well catered for, with myriad attractions, restaurants and of course miles of beaches.

Children are not just tolerated but welcomed by the friendly Spanish people. Despite the march of development, the area still has the ambience of Andalucía, the most 'Spanish' of all regions and you do not have to venture far from your holiday home to encounter local ferias, fiestas and romerias - the scent of Jasmine is in the air, inexpensive wine is flowing freely- come and enjoy!

The Marbella / El Madronal area

This stunning Villa is located just 15 minutes’ drive from the beach, on the foothills of the beautiful Ronda mountains . Quiet and peaceful, El Madronal is near the beautiful village of Benhavis with it's many fantastic restaurants to enjoy on summers evening. Or for lovers of the country side it is a short drive to the Refugio de Juanar, a rustic country house set in a National Reserve specialising in game not found on the coast such as marinated partridge, venison, quail and even mountain goat. Walking trails are well marked and it is well worth the walk to the Mirador that looks as far as Africa on a clear day.

Beach lovers are well catered for locally with beaches to suit every one, from families to beach babes and also beach bars and restaurants from 'bare foot' chiringuitos to exclusive beach clubs .Only 15 minutes from the glamorous resort of Puerto Banus, Estepona and Marbella, the Villa has easy access to all amenities.
San Pedro has a long seafront promenade, perfect for those sunset strolls or winter walks. It has a wide sandy beach and children's play areas.

Estepona has a promenade and a fishing port where you can watch local fishermen unloading their catch from their colourful boats, but you will have to be up early for the fish auction! The pretty main square has numerous cafes and restaurants amid remnants of old castle walls and traditional whitewashed buildings with their balconies of scented flowers. There is a good mix of shops and the area is particularly popular with families and well heeled British retirees.

There are many children's activities locally and within 30-40 mins drive. Fuengirola Zoo, the most modern in Spain is excellent and well worth a visit, also Tivoli World theme Park. Selwo Park, a safari style park is nearby. There are also Water parks and all types of sports, horse riding etc.

“One of the best holidays we have had!!!” Villa Alma is stunning, the location is beautiful up in the hills. The house itself is fantastic and the staff looking after the property were the best agents we have had. The quality of the furnishing was fantastic and the atmosphere of the house very much five star. We will certainly go back if we can get in!!! Response: Yes, a fantastic house and thank you for your kind comments, we do try to provide a quality service. We would be pleased to provide a complimentary Welcome Pack should you book accomodation with our company in the future.

Guestbook for Villa Alma

The De Gales 26th May - 2nd June (UK)

To the Owners of Villa Alma,

We wanted to write a note to say what an incredible villa you have. Everything was perfect. There was no detail you had not thought of from the fabulous night lighting outside to the all white furnishings by the pool, everything was so beautifully stylish. If you are not too fully booked up we would love to return again that is if we can get in once your secret is out. Thank you for making our stay here really special and for making the surrounds so stunning.

All Connections Property Services did a fantastic job. Javier looked after us so well along with the rest of the staff and we commend you in finding a property company that actually looks after the house and the guests in a five star manner.
