Amazing villa, superb views, close to village, private pool

Nestled in the mountains, just a 15-minute walk from the pretty whitewashed village of Canillas de Aceituno, Villa Amores has spectacular panoramic views over the Sierra de Tejeda to the blue Mediterranean in the distance.

The house offers spacious accommodation and wonderful seclusion, perfect for those looking for contemporary comforts combined with rustic charm.

The ground floor is built in an open-plan layout. The comfortable and spacious living room has a central fireplace. Adjacent to the living room is the dining room and a fully equipped kitchen.
The interior is light and airy with beamed ceilings and French doors from the living-dining room open onto two terraces, where you can enjoy the beautiful views, relax, unwind, sip a cocktail or a glass of wine and enjoy the sunset.

In the hallway you will find the family bathroom with bath and shower, a downstairs bedroom (2 single beds), a useful wardrobe/storage cupboard and the stairs to the top floor.

Upstairs, the landing leads to 2 more bedrooms (both doubles). Both bedrooms have their own dressing rooms and en-suite shower rooms.

Both bedrooms have access to a very large roof terrace, with stunning views of the valley, the Mediterranean, the village and the Sierra de Tejada mountains.

The living room and bedrooms benefit from fully equipped air conditioning, which also has a heating function. In addition, we have underfloor heating during the winter - November to March.

Outside, the covered terrace has a built-in electrical barbecue making it ideal for outdoor cooking, and the walled pool/sun terrace with an 8 x 4 pool ...
In summer the pool is heated naturally by the sun, in spring, autumn and winter the pool is not heated.

A winding path leads down from the upper terrace to the rest of the garden, including terraces, hammock, our "retreat tree", a small grove of carob, almond and olive trees, a cactus terrace + (recently planted) mango, avocado, fig , orange, lemon and lime trees.

The house is within walking distance of the picturesque village of Canillas de Aceituno. The village has a good variety of shops, bars, restaurants and other amenities. It is one of the most beautiful villages in the region. More shops and restaurants can be found in the nearby village of Vinuela.

Velez-Malaga and Torre del Mar are a 20-minute drive away and the Mediterranean Sea is just a 5-minute drive away.

APLEASE NOTE THAT:
During the summer season, the default changeover date is Saturday!

Great villa - great view
The villa is very well equipped (especially the kitchen) and the internal space is very comfortable. The terrace and pool area is ideal for a family group, with a good outdoor dining space and fantastic panoramic views over the surrounding hills. The villa's orientation makes it great for enjoying the sunset from the terrace. The garden is also lovely and well maintained (albeit on a steep slope). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.

Peaceful location
Great well equipped villa and pool set in the mountains. So peaceful, stunning views. 20 min walk to village where you find all you need including bars and restaurants serving very good local dishes..(and burgers). Would definitely come again.

Perfection!!
Our stay was nothing short of perfect!! We played in the pool like small kids (we are 3 generations of women), slept like babies in the rural quiet and made lovely dinners from local ingredients from the village. The tiny town the villa is a part of is something out of a movie, the mountains -marvelous and the ease of travel in and around the area -incredible. We can’t say enough positive things about the place!!

Fantastic villa in a stunning location.
The property was excellent. The location was stunning and was a great base for visiting other tourist areas. The beds were super comfy and we loved that there were essentials provided such as toilet roll, kitchen roll, washing up liquid and cloths, dishwasher tablets cling film, salt, pepper, oil etc. The pool was great for cooling off. The small road leading up to the villa was a little terrifying as I don't like heights, but my husband, who was driving, said it was fine. The rooms were hot at night, despite the aircon, but then Spain was experiencing a heat wave at the time of our stay. The villa was a real home from home and beautifully decorated with locely finishing touches. The brand new bathrooms were fantastic! We would definitely recommend.

Off the beaten track........ but wow
The villa itself is very well presented with 3 spacious bedrooms, nice open living / dining and kitchen area and a great outdoors communal area for eating, relaxing, topped off with a fair sized pool. The upstairs bedrooms share a large balcony and the nightsky view from there is spectacular. It is a tricky drive initially to get there but you do get used to this and when you arrive you are met with spectacular scenery making it very worthwhile! Just ensure you hire an adequate car. There is a nice village 5 min drive away, with a few bars and restaurants but plan ahead and get your bulk provisions on route as the village only has a very limited selection. Don't worry all of this information is made clear by the owners if you book including good directions on how to get there and where the nearest supermarket is on route etc. In summary this is not a beach location and beaches are around 45 mins drive. But it is a tranquil, resplendent setting that makes this space a little more special, a great find.

Very enjoyable - traditional build but all mod cons
Loved our stay at Villa Amores - the views from the balcony, crystal clear water from the pool and nicely laid gardens. The house itself looks like it has been there more than 100 years but George, the owner, told me the house was only built 20 years ago - all facilities including dishwasher were available (but not visible) - super!
