From the terrace in front of the house you will have a great view at sea and from the terraces at the swimming pool you are looking at the Natural Park Sierra Tejeda.
This free standing villa is situated in the centre of overwhelming nature. You will reach the villa via a partly paved mountain road.
The villa is decorated and designed with high quality and tasteful furniture. A comfortable couch and rocking chairs will guarantee a living room full of atmosphere.
When entering the lounge a toreador will welcome you from his huge painting. Furthermore you will see nice paintings and photo´s decorating the house.
In the main house there are situated 2 nice bathrooms and 2 bedrooms. Beside the main house there is “the tower” with one room and 2 beds.
From this tower room you will have spectacular views over the sea in the distance, the mountains and the large sized pool.
Also the tower room is tastefully decorated.
You will take the stairs to the lower part where the swimming pool area is situated, nicely green tiled pool, and the wooden lounge beds and parasols will guarantee the lounge atmosphere. Imagine yourself having a well deserved siësta here, life is so beautiful!
Also in front of the house there is a possibility of having dinner in the shade or just relax and read an exciting book.
Cons:
• The road to the Finca runs partly beside a steep slope. However, the road is save and will not be a problem for any type of car. Not really a con though but we think you would like to know it.
• The separate tower room has solely 2 beds, for visiting a bathroom or toilet you have to go to the main house which is situated next to this room.
Pros:
• The location is spectacular, stunning views to all directions
• Very well maintained villa
• Much attention from the owner for details and cosy atmosphere

surrounding area
Sayalonga
Sayalonga is a small white villa, about 11 kilometers from Algarrobo Costa (between Nerja and Torre del Mar).
Active
Options for activities include walks and bike rides. Or a tour further inland past the pueblos blancos (white villages). And you can, of course, also play a round of golf.
Family
Torrel del Mar has a waterpark with many slides and pools.
A visit to the caves of Nerja will definitely excite the kids.
Beach
The closest beach is near Torre del Mar. The quiet family beach of Rincón de la Victoria lies between Vélez-Málaga and Málaga.
La Herradura has some fine beaches. To the west of La Herradura, in the direction of Nerja, there are also various small bays between the rocks. Many of these beaches are pebble beaches. In Nerja itself, the Playa Burriana is worth a visit.
The following villages/towns in the area are definitely worth a visit:
Nerja (24km; 25min):
This town with over 500 years of history has retained its character, with its whitewashed houses, narrow streets and squares. Tourists crowd the Balcón de Europa, a sprawling rock that spectacularly protrudes into the sea and offers a view of the magnificent coastline. This natural balcony is in the centre of Nerja. Various staircases lead down to the beaches and bays.
The nicest beach is Playa Burriana, on the eastern side of Nerja.
Further east you will find the Cuevas de Nerja, a string of caverns of great archaeological importance. Only a few of these colossal caverns are open to the public, and there you will be lead past the world’s thickest stalactite, which even made it into the Guinness Book of Records in 1989.
Málaga (45km;45min)
The bustling port city of Málaga is Andalucía’s biggest city after Seville. It used to be an important trading port, because in the 19th century Málaga wine was exported all over Europe, until Phylloxera, the pest that had already destroyed grapevines all over Europe, reached Málaga and put an end to its wealth.
Málaga old town is the area around the cathedral. The Museo Picasso is also near the cathedral, and exhibits many of the works of this famous artist, who was born in Málaga. Further sights include the Alcazaba, one of the prime Moorish fortresses in Andalucía, and the Castillo de Gibralfaro, a 14th-century Moorish castle, which you can access through its beautiful gardens.
Also make sure you taste some of Málaga’s fine wines in a bodega, some of which also serve delicious tapas.
Antequera / Parque Natural El Torcal (92km; 1h20min)
Torcal means karst formation. These are limestone mountains of 1000 to 1200 m high, bizarrely sculpted by wind and rain, looking like stacked rocks, pancakes, columns, huge stone mushrooms, plateaus and crevices.
Footpaths start at the visitor centre, and you go on long or short walks.
And you can, of course, head for one of these world famous cities for a day trip:
Granada (117km; 1h30min):
The Alhambra was the part of town where princes, nobility and court staff dwelled, on the hill right in the middle of Granada. The Alhambra is a huge complex, 720m in length and 220m wide. Clever use of space, light, water and decorative features are the Alhambra’s defining features.
On the hill opposite the Alhambra, the Albayzín quarter, is where Granada’s Moorish past is still most tangible. Stroll through its narrow streets, past villas with Moorish decoration and gardens, up to the Mirador de San Nicolás. This is where you will have the best views, of the roofs of Granada, with the Alhambra behind them, which makes for a stunning view, especially at sunset!
Córdoba (200km; 2h20min):
Visit the Mezquita, Córdoba's huge mosque, which has seen various different developments throughout the years to become a fascinating blend of styles and religions. And you can also go for a stroll through the districts of San Lorenzo, Judería and San Basilio, where you will encounter the most beautiful Moorish patios. Other sights include the palace/fortress Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos with magnificent gardens and fountains; various museums, such as the Museo Arqueológico, Museo Taurino, Museo de Bellas Artes; a string of great squares, such as the Plaza de la Corredera, Plaza del Potro.
Sevilla (249km; 3h):
The capital of Andalucía is a compact city with a rich past. Most of its major sights are in or near the city centre on the Guadalquivir river’s left bank. And they also know how to party and have a good time in this city of flamenco and tapas.
As you wander through the old Jewish quarter, the Barrio Santa Cruz, through a maze of white streets and patios, you should not forget to take in the imposing cathedral, the Moorish bell tower, La Giralda, and the royal palace Real Alcázar.
You can unwind in the María Luisa park, where you can spend the hottest part of the day under orange trees and palm trees.
The museum Museo de Bellas Artes, one of Spain’s best museums of art, is a real must. And then there are its magnificent palaces and other sights, such as the Plaza de Toros de la Maestranza (bull ring); Casa de Pilatos and the Torre del Oro.
