Villa with spectacular views over the sea


A beautiful, spacious villa with wonderful uninterrupted views over the sea. To the south-east, the view is of Salobrena with it's hill top castle and seafront and to the south-west it is of Velilla beach in Almunecar. The villa is very well equipped and situated in a tranquil location, with gardens and a private pool with terrace. One of the best features is the abundance of space throughout from the large living room with high ceilings with a large arched window framing the view towards Salobrena, to the additional living space downstairs.
The accommodation is on two floors and is arranged so that each floor has 2 bedrooms, 2 shower rooms and a living/dining room with kitchen. Each lounge has it's own TV, DVD and separate satellite box allowing choice of viewing in each location.
The villa is ideal for all groups of between 2 and 8 people. The main living room, master bedroom and pool are adjacent all on the same level which would be perfect for a couple visiting on their own. The villa has 4 separate bathrooms which makes it well-equipped to take a larger party. The additional living space downstairs is ideal for those with children who would like a little space of their own.
The villa faces south allowing enjoyment of the sunshine all day, and all rooms have views over the Mediterranean. There is plenty of terrace space around the pool and additional areas accessible directly from both the upper and lower floors. The pool is accessed directly from the upper floor, and via an external staircase up from the lower floor. Access to the pool can be secured should you have smaller children.
The upper floor has 2 bedrooms each with an en-suite shower with a bath in the master bedroom. The main kitchen and living area is on this level which is on the same level as the pool. The kitchen has an oven and hob, fridge freezer and dishwasher and it's own table. The main dining area looks out directly over the sea, and gives access to the outside. The living area has a wood burner which is a cosy alternative to the air-conditioning in the cooler months. There is also a cloakroom on this level.
On the lower level, there are 2 bedrooms and 2 shower rooms and also a small kitchen (with oven/hob and fridge/freezer) and a good-sized additional living area with separate TV/DVD/Satellite, and access to outside. The washing machine is also on this level.
The villa is entered through a locked security gate and the driveway provides parking for 2/3 vehicles and there is a separate parking bay adjacent for a further vehicle. There is pedestrian access to the villa through a further locked gate from the parking bay.
The villa has hot and cold air conditioning which is controlled separately in each room. All bed linen and towels are provided and changed weekly and cots and high chairs are available on request.
The villa is perfectly located on the prestigious Alfamar Urbanisation, halfway between the beautiful coastal towns of Salobrena and Almunecar. A variety of bars, shops and restaurants are available in both towns, within 10 minutes drive.
Access to the villa is in about 1 hour from either Malaga (85km) or Granada (75 km) airport, using the new motorway links that are now in place. Car hire is essential to get the best from your stay and we can advise on this if required.
There are many options for exploring the surrounding area. The local towns of Salobrena with it's castle, and Almunecar with it's Roman ruins, bustling centre, old town and markets are very close by.
Further afield you can visit Granada and the Alhambra Palace, Nerja with it's famous caves and a trip into the Alpujarras mountains hopping between the beautiful white-washed villages is a must. Even skiing is possible within 75 mins drive in the Sierra Nevada, between November and April. The largest nearby commercial centre is Motril (12km)which is a thriving town that immerses you in the real Spain.
The whole area surprises visitors because it couldn't be more different from the usual Spanish holiday area. Here you come to relax, and enjoy everything that is Spanish, perhaps even a little of the language and certainly the picturesque scenery which dominates the region.

Salobrena villa with the most outstanding views
This villa with its amazing views of sunrises and sunsets was a memorable part of our vacation in Southern Spain and Portugal. We were 3 couples from California traveling together, so the 4 bedroom villa was roomy and fit all our needs perfectly. Caretakers Liz and Barry welcomed us warmly on arrival and helped us figure out logistics including nearby grocery stores and restaurant options. One minor inconvenience that future travelers should be aware of is the absence of any shower gel or bath soap in any of the bathrooms, despite the online listing stating that basic soap is provided. We recommend this beautiful home to groups like ours looking for a relaxing break.

Million-dollar view!
The view, no matter what time of day or night, is absolutely "Awesome"! While you are close to many nice shopping, eating, and sightseeing areas, the unit itself is quiet, peaceful, and private. The house is clean, well maintained, and spacious. Furnishings aren't elegant, but they are homey, comfortable, and all we needed to have an enjoyable stay. The hosts, Liz and Barry, were super! More than willing to help guests in any way. We used this property as our hub to visit beautiful villages along this part of the coast, including Salobrena, Nerja, and Frigiliana. It also worked well for day trips to Granada and the fascinating villages of the Alpujarra in the Sierra Nevada mountains. We spent 10 days here and would have loved to stay longer.

Good location
The views from the villa are indeed spectacular and show the best of this unspoilt coast of Spain. The towns of Salobrena, Alumencar and La Herradura are spanish tourist towns so expect spanish restaurants and menus. If you speak some Spanish this is fine and we had some fabulous meals out. The villa itself, whilst I appreciate it is probably below the average cost of a villa with this location, is rather tired and dated inside. If we were here with family we would have had to buy some pool lilos or similar or equipment for the beach. The BBQ was barely usable and I advised that it needed replacing. I would also recommend a small car as the roads and parking at the villa are quite tight. We know this area very well so have visited many times and I would recommend this part of Spain. Would I rush to stay at this villa again? Probably not unless it was updated. Whilst it was a reasonable price it is still not an insignificant amount to spend on a week in a villa and it needs reinvestment back into it.

Fantastic views & location
We have just returned from a great stay for a few weeks at this amazing Villa. The views were what tempted us to book originally and these are even better in person; we are missing waking up to these spectacular sea views every day. Photos on the website are accurate and the Villa has everything you will possibly need. Just before our arrival the Wifi had been upgraded and works great inside the Villa and around the pool. The Villa is halfway between the very Spanish towns of Salobrena & Almunecar both offer a wide range of supermarkets, local shops and many restaurants. Communication with the owner Debbie before our stay was prompt and helpful; we'd originally booked in 2020 to stay last May but Debbie was very helpful allowing us to move our holiday to 2022. The local property managers, Liz & Barry, were very helpful and easily contactable. The pool was maintained weekly by the very friendly Juan. We have stayed at several locations throughout Spain but this has been our favourite, for the Villa views and what the local towns have to offer.

Best view in Costa Tropical!
We enjoyed our one week stay at this lovely villa. Location was fantastic. A shirt drive to. Salobrenea and Almunkcar. You definitely need a car but travel in this area js a breeze. Kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. Beds were extremely comfortable. Liz and Barry were amazing before, during and checking out of our stay. They even arranged for a delivery of firewood or is it was there when we arrived. It was the perfect villa for our week stay in Costa Topical We will definitely book again.
