A really beautiful villa offering everything you could possibly want. One great appeal was 3 en suite rooms so no waiting for a turn in the loo or shower! Seating areas surround the property so there are a variety of settings for eating outside . The kitchen is probably better equipped than many domestic kitchens (including mine)! We loved the pool, 1 meter deep overall and kept very clean. This is a really special place for a holiday and very difficult to leave. Helen and Steve were excellent hosts and very responsive. Enjoy!

We absolutely loved our stay at Casa Mimosa.Steve and Helen have clearly put a lot of work in over the years to the house and gardens as inside and outside is immaculate.The garden and grounds are pristine and it’s clear to see the effort gone in to them. The pool is a good size and our kids enjoyed playing in it as did we to cool down in the July heat. There are lots of different seating options at the front and back of the house for dining or relaxing in the shade, which has also been clearly thought out and added over the years.Inside 3 good sized air conditioned bedrooms all with nice en suites. Large kitchen which is really well equipped. Large living space with 2 sofas and tv plus large dining table - plenty of tv channels available, which Steve showed us and access to Netflix, YouTube etc.Helen and Steve are lovely hosts. They gave us a nice welcome and contacted us in advance of our stay with details of how to get there. They also provided a welcome pack with a lot of food and drinks which was a really nice touch! They keep the pool and area clean in the early mornings. Nothing is too much trouble and Helen gave us some restaurant recommendations during our stay.We’ve stayed in similar properties with pools in Mallorca and Spain over the years but this is probably the nicest as it’s so well cared for by Helen and Steve. Big thanks to them and hopefully we will return again for another relaxing stay!

About the host

Hosted by Helen Matthews

Host profile image
We are a British couple and our passion is gardening and traveling. What we like best of being hosts is meeting lovely people from all over the world.

Why they chose this property

When we were house hunting we were all over the south of Spain but once we reached Alora we knew we found our new home. We were blown away by the views. Alora is perched on 3 hills, where the Moorish castle is located, where the town is and the last is where the El Calvario church is located.

What makes this property unique

What makes Casa Mimosa unique is its proximity to town, only 2 kilometres away but the countryside is also at your doorstep. You are getting the best of both worlds.
