Nestled 900m above sea level commanding breathtaking panoramic views of lake Vińuela, surrounding mountains and the Mediterranean Sea. Rustic Spanish style is reflected in the thick, stone walls and terracotta floor tiles, with charming features like amimal feeding troughs still evident in the house. The house has many unique features but the vista from the south facing terrace (partly shaded by grapevines and extending along the front of the house) is hard to beat! Set at the highest point of El Cañuelo, Casa Santo offers the best of both worlds-secluded enough to enjoy peace and tranquility, yet only a 3 minute walk to enjoy the shared pool and traditional, picturesque Bar/restaurant ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa -

Em relação ao anúncio nada a acrescentar... Fotos reais. Localização super, mega, hiper calma! Só a reclamar a limpeza da casa, que tivemos que andar a limpar que tinha imenso pó! E realmente as moscas torna se insuportável. Não se consegue estar 2min sem as moscas em cima das pessoas. Tudo o resto 5 estrelas. A casa antiga é mesmo antiga mas tem condições e muito conforto nas camas. A parte nova, o quarto tem uma vista linda com a varanda que se torna muito íntimo. ##### Nuno V.

Aunque el tiempo no nos ha acompañado, hemos podido hacer un par de rutas, y la vista desde el porche de la casa, es espectacular de día y de noche. La casa antigua está muy bien, y la parte moderna es de lujo. ##### Miguel Ángel C. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nanda K. 15 Aug 2018 #### Fantastisch! Wij, 2 volwassenen en 2 tieners, hebben 15 dagen in Casa Santos verbleven en enorm genoten. De twee huisjes aan elkaar vast waren leuk en mooi en het uitzicht adembenemend en het is er heerlijk rustig. We werden gastvrij welkom geheten met als verrassing stonden er in de keuken een flesje wijn, wat flesjes bier, brood, kaas en worst op ons te wachten. Op het terrein is een leuke en gezellige bar voor een drankje en in de avond kun je er lekker eten. Het zwembad en de plekjes eromheen om te zonnen en te lezen zijn prima. ##### Nanda K.
