Enchanting villa with private pool and stunning views, close to beach.
This sunny, private villa is situated in a quiet, mature, residential area in the heart of Malaga province. Boasting its own unshared private, secluded pool, sun terraces and gardens, the villa is ideal for a family summer holiday and equally ideal for a romantic get-away. It has a large balcony giving panoramic views of the mountains and sea and is just a 10 minutes walk to the beach. With views of the sea from the balcony you can have a romantic meal on the terrace while the family can sit and relax around the sunny, secluded, private pool area. Being just a stroll away from the local railway station, it is ideally positioned to explore both the Costa and 'real' Spain.
Location: Located just 25 minutes from Malaga Airport, the villa is situated in a quiet, mature complex that stretches from the beach back into the hills. The views from the villa are magnificent. In one direction you can look up into the hills and the while-walled village of Benalmadena Pueblo. In the other, the blue seas of the Mediterranean stretch out in front of you. With just a 5 minute walk to the local railway station and a 10 minute walk down the the beach, it is difficult to imagine anywhere more ideally positioned.
The Villa: The large terraces and the private swimming pool are the first things that greet our guests. Open the front door and you look into the spacious lounge with marble floors and high ceilings complete with huge picture window and large balcony looking down to the sea. The main room is equipped with air-conditioning which also provides heat in the winter. Downstairs are the two double bedrooms each equipped with air-conditioning, ceiling fan and external blinds which keep them cool for those hot summer evenings. With gardens walled to give total privacy, visitors can relax in tranquil surroundings while access to the local tennis club with floodlit courts, large swimming pool and world class golf courses are only minutes away.
The Urbanisation: At the entrance to the urbanisation there are several beach bars and restaurants. There is a mini-market, a cafe, a bar as well as real-estate offices in front of the newly opened International English School. Just through the under pass are beaches, more bars and restaurants as well as the local hotel which has entertainment most evenings. Further back in the complex is the local railway station servicing the coast from Malaga via the airport through to Fuengirola - it is even possible to take a series of trains all the way from London to the urbanisation - one of our clients did! Besides the station there is a small road that travels up into the hills to the village of Benalmadena Pueblo which offers stupendous views over the coastal plain as well as a small restaurant on nearly every corner.

Villa was just ideal for us , clean modern and everything we needed, Clive was brilliant and very helpful, we had bread / milk/ butter, ham/ cheese wine and beers, and water to great us on arrival, which was not expected, so lovely surprise. All in all a great chilled out place to stay, we thoroughly enjoyed every minute.
The house was fantastic! Clive was incredibly kind, quick with email responses, welcoming and accommodating. The house was lovely, the perfect place to unwind from the city. I'd be more than happy to stay here again, or would highly recommend it to friends and family.
We had a great time at the Villa. Great communication from the host which made the whole “check in” process nice and simple. The Villa is well equipped and in a great location. Given the opportunity we would certainly visit again. Overall a fantastic stay.
Excellent location close to transport links to get to Benalmadena, Torremolinos and Fuengirola all within 10 mins from the property by train or bus. Great pool and lovely spacious property. The host was very helpful with information on where to go and how to get there.
A beautiful villa for 4 people. Owner very helpful and a few bits left for us to get us started in the food/drink department. Villa was well kept, with everything we needed. Lovely beach nearby and shop for essentials along with a couple of eating places just a short walk away. Hope to return soon.
Stunning villa with amazing views and beautiful sunsets. Train station close by to get around was a bonus.A fantastic welcome pack left, which was a great help, until we got our own supplies.Well equipped kitchen with everthing you will need. Comfy beds and sunloungers. There was nothing we could find fault with!!Clive kept us updated from day one to leaving, and kindly let us stay on due to a late flight, as no one was booked in the following day, which was a massive help! Thanks Clive.Would not hesitate to book again!
Had an amazing time at this villa. It was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing couple of days. Communication with the host was excellent and efficient.
The property was as described. The property was clean and fully equipped. Pool was a god send and well maintained, pool towels was nice addition. Train station close by, also bus links. Quiet area. We kept fit for a week as supermarket, restaurant and beach were all down hill, so a bit of a hilly walk back. Owners communication was excellent and made sure everything was all as it should be. Had a wonderful week with our Grand Children.Would recommend this property.
Lovely villa in a great location. Whole process was friction free and the owner made everything a pleasure from start to finish. Would definitely recommend. We stayed for week in early November so weather was just about there as well.
Great base for exploring Andalusia but if that's not your thing plenty of places locally and a ton of stuff in Benalmadena. Something for everyone really.
This is a lovely villa with living accommodation on top floor and two bedrooms on floor below. Stunning views from balcony to sea and from pool to mountains. Fabulous private pool with ample seating/ lounging/ dining options outside.
We absolutely loved our time at the villa!
The advert photos don’t do it justice, really wonderful property with everything you could need.
Clive was a fantastic host, went out of his way to make us feel welcome.
Can’t wait to return for our next wonderful break here.

Thanks for the wonderful review Angela. We really loved you staying with us and, don't forget, I always provide a small discount to returning clients as a loyalty bonus.
Fantastic week stay at this lovely villa. Very peaceful area, with easy access to the train station. Pool area good for chilling out in the sunshine. Sunrise is beautiful from the balcony. Correspondence with Clive, the host, was very efficient and helpful. Can definitely recommend this villa.
Clive was a very responsive host and made the booking process and any questions about our stay at the villa very easy. We were provided with probably the best welcome pack we've had, wine,beer, water, orange juice, bread, cheese, meat, butter and milk! The villa had everything we needed to spend our 2 weeks there.The pool area was just lovely with stunning views and the lovely pool was a perfect temperature to keep ourselves cool.The villa location is perfect, set on a beautiful street with many other well maintained properties. The views were stunning, mountains, sea and so very peaceful. Being only 5mins from the train station we made good use of that to explore other areas and used it to get back to the airport. I would definitely recommend a visit to this this villa!

Excellent Villa
great place to stay to visit all the 'local resorts' especially by using the train service had i known how easy it was to use then would not have bothered hiring a car. Unfortunately the weather wasn't the best it could have been but the 3 days we had by the pool were excellent very secluded and private. Villa was really clean and tidy with all the facilities you would need.
Really enjoyed the stay and will return when at all possible.
Clive is excellent at communicating and answering any questions clearly & promptly. Property is neat, clean and well located, and we were kindly gifted some food & drinks in the fridge on arrival. A definite recommended.
This is such a well deigned property, with downstairs bedrooms, two terraces and a pool. You can be in the shade all day, or the sun, if you prefer. The sun was on the pool until about 5, which was perfect to allow the kids to enjoy it in the shade for as long as they wanted. It’s small but deep enough for jumping in, with lovely space around it.The villa isn’t overlooked at all and we were barely aware of our neighbours. We didn’t have a car so we found the steep hike back from the beach, shops and restaurants with small kids a bit of an effort in the heat. The train station is so handy for the airport and for visits to other towns.Watching the sun go down on the hills from the terrace was a lovely treat and the kitchen window to pass food and tableware was particularly appreciated. All in all great space which worked perfectly for our family.
Just come back from a lovely week, the villa was perfect for us, spotless with everything you need, a home from home, just a few minutes walk to the train station and a 3 minute ride to the centre of Benalmádena where all the bars, restaurants and shops are located, Clive was great, met us there to make sure we got in ok, will defiantly be booking up again
Fabulous house , everything you could possibly want, and more. Gorgeous pool. Quiet residential area. Easy access to train to and from airport and towns along the coast . Some challenging hills for us oldies but local taxis were very reasonable.
Very generous welcome pack including a bottle of cava.
Can't think of anything negative to say, loved it !
We had a wonderful stay at the villa. All instructions given by Clive were so clear and he answered any questions that we had very promptly. The view from the living room is spectacular. The pool was also great as it was so hot when we were there. It is so easy to get to and from the train station and the beach area, where we also used the bus. I would highly recommend booking this villa. We loved it.

Many thanks Carol for the lovely review. Hope to see you back again one day.
We enjoyed our stay in the villa which was very clean, well maintained, and the host responded immediately to our questions. The neighborhood was very quiet, and it's only 5 minutes away from the train station. With trains every 20 minutes in the direction of Malaga or Fuengirola. So you really don't need a car if you come by plane. I would certainly consider coming back.

Why they chose this property
I fell in love with this villa the very first time I travelled to mainland Spain back in the early 80s and have been living there off and on ever since.
What makes this property unique
The main selling points to me were the wonderful views of the sea and mountains, the tranquil setting and the proximity to the station making the villa secluded enough from the hustle and bustle of the local tourist spots yet near enough to take advantage of them whenever I wish.
