A beautiful villa set in a lovely garden located in a up market neighbourhood. Plenty of parking in the villa grounds. Views of the Mediterranean from the balcony. Air conditioning throughout. Would definitely visit again. Note: if you do not have use of a car the steep hills in the area may pose a problem if you are not fully fit.

The villa is amazing. We were a family of 13 mixed generations and when we got to the villa we were blown away. Everything from booking to meeting us at the villa was brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble we even looked at booking for next year but unfortunately our dates weren’t available. But we would definitely come back. We loved everything about it xx

Great villa with excellent amenities.Would highly recommend for large families or friends wanting a group getaway.Only issue for us was the road resurfacing which impacted our use of the villa over a couple of days with lots of noise and dust. The owners were quick to send out the pool cleaners again the following day which was greatly appreciated.

We were 10 adult’s ranging from 24-54 years old. We stayed for 1 week at La Gitanilla. The space was perfect for us. It was nice to prepare our own meals and eat in a few evenings. Emily was wonderful to work with and answered many, many of my questions very quickly. We really enjoyed using the pool and sitting out back in the evening. Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful House

We were a family group of 10 including a baby and a 4 yo. The house is just as in the pictures, spacious with lots of comfortable seating in different areas and a lovely, although unheated, pool. There is a huge, well equipped kitchen and excellent built in BBQ at the back. All bedrooms had large comfortable beds and 4 en-suites were a bonus. We hardly left the property except for grocery shopping and very much enjoyed the quiet surroundings. Our only niggle was lack of sunshades near the pool which meant baby and mother were unable to join the group. Highly recommend to other large groups.

About the host

Hosted by Lise-Lotte and Hans-Kurt

Host profile image
We live in Silkeborg, Denmark, and have proudly owned the villa since 1998. Since 2008, we — Hans-Kurt and Lise-Lotte — have shared this special place as a rental property. Every summer, we spend our holidays at the villa ourselves, continuously adding personal touches to make it warm, welcoming, and truly cosy for all our guests.

Why they chose this property

Our decision to purchase this villa was inspired by our love for its authentic Spanish rustic charm. We were looking for a safe, peaceful, and well-established neighborhood where we could truly relax. Just as important was having shops, restaurants, and especially the beach within walking distance, so our family can fully enjoy everything the area has to offer.

What makes this property unique

Our property combines modern comfort with stunning natural surroundings. At the front of the house, you’ll find a beautiful saltwater pool that offers a relaxing atmosphere and breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea.
Behind the house is a cozy outdoor area featuring a bar, grill, and pizza oven — perfect for cooking and socializing outdoors while enjoying the sea view.
Inside, the property boasts a large, new kitchen equipped with modern appliances and plenty of space to unleash your culinary creativity.
The patio is furnished with comfortable seating, inviting relaxation, and the property’s lush fruit garden adds a natural and fresh touch.
This combination of luxurious amenities, scenic views, and a modern kitchen makes our property truly unique.
