Further details indoors:
From the private parking area, you ascend a flight of stairs. There is a gate at the top of the stairs, so if you have young children, you don´t have to worry about them going doing the stairs on their own. At the top of the stairs, you encounter the pool terrace, covered porch and the entrance of the villa.
The private heated pool is 9 meters long by 5 meters wide. We have safety enclosures that can be placed around the pool to ensure that young children cannot enter without adult assistance. There is a pretty water fall feature that is built into the pool. There is a covered porch next to the pool with a large gas barbeque and a table for al fresco dining.
The door to the villa is accessed via the covered porch. Upon entering the villa, you encounter the spacious, round, open plan living room, dining room and kitchen. The kitchen has a breakfast bar which is great for kids and for enjoying a glass of wine and a tapa. There are 6 large windows that enable you to enjoy the stunning sea views from every angle. There is a french door for easy access to the terrace and pool area. There is a laundry room and a cloak/powder room on this level.
Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom. The master bedroom and one of the guest bedrooms have access to a terrace that overlook the pool and again offer magnificent views. The master bedroom has a super king size bed. The guest bedroom with the terrace also has a double bed. The third bedroom has 2 twin size beds and there is space for a twin size air mattress if there are 7 people in your party. There is balcony which leads to the garden area and the roof top terrace where the hot tub is located.
The roof top terrace offers truly panoramic views of the sea, the mountains and the best part is the Moorish castle of Salobrena that is illuminated at night. We have sun loungers up here, so that you can catch the last rays of the afternoon sun and you can relax and enjoy the stars after soaking in the hot tub. It truly doesn´t get better than this.
Fully air conditioned, Satellite TV (Sky), broadband internet access, plenty of books and games!
Further details outdoors:
Spacious roof top terrace with exceptional views, perfect spot for enjoying both the sun & the stars.

The Costa Tropical region
The historic city of Granada with the spectacular Alhambra Palace is only 45 minutes away. The small mountain villages of the Alpujarras are well worth exploring. Other places of interest include Almunecar with its markets and Roman ruins, La Herradura with its beautiful harbour and Nerja with its underground caves. Our guests love this area because it is still Spanish and very much unspoilt. It is how the Costa del Sol used to be before it was overdeveloped. This is the right place to come to get a true taste of Spain.
The Salobrena / Monte de Los Almendros area
The beautiful beaches of the Costa Tropical, restaurants and shops are only 5 minutes away affording you the best of both worlds - close proximity to everything yet truly peaceful and relaxing surroundings. Less than a 5 minute walk from the villa is the community recreational area. Our guests have free use of all of the facilities including a large communal pool, children's pool, playground, tennis, table tennis, football pitch and even a basketball hoop. This is a great place for children to socialise with other kids and to use up their excess energy!

Fabulous three weeks at Villa Castillo de Mar which exceeded our expectations at every level. The property was exactly as described, very clean and comfortable, with stunning views. The heated pool (29C) AND hot tub (36C) on the huge roof terrace provided an extra level of luxury which made all the difference. Even with these extras the electricity cost was less than £50 per week. The service we received from Cumbre Villas was flawless from start to finish. Christine provided us with a level of friendly, personal service that you rarely find these days. Very detailed information was provided in the villa on every imaginable subject. Added to this we had extraordinarily good weather every day, cloudless blue skies, over 20C in the sun most days. What more can you ask? If you can drag yourself away from the villa, the local attractions are well worth a visit, even out of season. You have access to the local tennis courts, empty in November, rackets are provided. The markets in Salobrena, La Herradura are both small but good. The fish at Almunecar market (and also at Al Campo supermarket in Motril) is fantastically fresh and varied and, compared to the UK, ludicrously cheap. I recommend you watch the sunset over a glass of something at Buenos on the beach at La Herradura. Frigilliana was well worth a visit, try lunch on the terrace at El Porton. Granada is only about a hour away and needs two days if you have time. Booking a guided tour of the Alhambra in advance was well worth the money, we used www.MiReservaOnLine.es . Try to find time to walk round the Albaicin and up to the Mirador de St Nicholas. Also try La Oliva in Calle Rosario. We stayed at the Parador but would probably try the Hotel America next time. The neolithic site at Los Millares north on Almeria is fascinating. All in all an excellent trip, great value for money. I have no hesitation in recommending Cumbre Villas in general and Villa Castillo Del Mar in particular. |
Guestbook for Villa Castillo del Mar
We had a perfect week - many thanks. The villa was fantastic - and the child friendly touches (the swimming pool guard, the stairgates and the bed guard) meant we could really relax and enjoy our time without worrying! Thank you also for the welcome pack of food - it was much appreciated.
Thanks again - we'd love to come back sometime!

We had a great time and the villa was as beautiful as it was in the pictures. Salobrena was a wonderful area, and we would like to come back some day.
Thanks for all your help with the plans. Everyone at Cumbre Villas was so helpful and made renting an easy process from so far away. We will definitely come to you again for our next rental.

We have enjoyed our stay in Castillo del Mar. It is definitely one of the most beautiful villas on the Monte de Almendros. We´ll definitely return...
Beach of Taramay and Cabria are 5 stars and I will dream of the view of Salobreña until I return with my family.

This is a fabulous hacienda in a wonderful place. We have thoroughly enjoyed our week stay and will recommend the place to our friends. The village is a pleasure to walk through & restaurants delightful. As others have reported, the Steakhouse is a fun place to dine. Also the Peñón near the rock on the water.
