Acerca de este alojamiento
Villa idílica con piscina privada climatizada con energía solar y vistas para morirse!
Casa Olivia (anteriormente conocida como Casa Rosaleda) se encuentra en el espectacular paisaje montañoso de Andalucía en el sur de España. Está en una posición tranquila pero no aislada, a solo 10 minutos en coche de los restaurantes y tiendas de Cómpeta, un pueblo típicamente pintoresco de Pueblo Blanco. Nuestra villa se encuentra en una parcela de gran nivel que está plantada de forma atractiva con una amplia variedad de plantas mediterráneas y tiene una piscina de 8x4 metros. La propiedad está amurallada y cerrada.
En su interior encontrará todo lo que necesita para unas vacaciones relajantes, un verdadero hogar lejos del hogar. Hay dos habitaciones grandes con aire acondicionado (para refrigeración y calefacción) con armarios empotrados de ancho completo. El amplio salón cuenta con dos sofás, TV (con más de 50 canales en inglés), DVD y Apple TV. La cocina completa está muy bien equipada. En el exterior hay una piscina climatizada con energía solar muy privada, amplias terrazas y una gran área cubierta para comer con cocina exterior y barbacoa al lado de la piscina. También hay una terraza cubierta en la parte delantera de la villa donde puedes sentarte o dormirte a la sombra si hace demasiado calor junto a la piscina o tomar una copa de vino y ver el sol caer sobre las montañas.
MASCOTAS ¡Las mascotas son bienvenidas en Casa Olivia! La casa no está ubicada directamente a lo largo de una carretera y es relativamente aislada y segura. Dicho esto, es bueno saber que el jardín no está cercado al 100%. Tendrás que estar atento a las mascotas 'exploratorias'.
COSAS PARA HACER Hay una gran cantidad de cosas que hacer cerca. Es un paraíso para los excursionistas, con hermosos paseos directamente cerca de la villa. Un poco más lejos hay caminatas más desafiantes en los parques nacionales cercanos, a lo largo de la costa y en los diversos valles. La caminata a la cima de La Maroma está en la lista de muchos excursionistas.
Hay playas remotas y tranquilas de guijarros y arena cerca entre Maro y Nerja y playas más accesibles, con animados bulevares llenos de restaurantes y bares en Torrox Costa, Algarobbo y Nerja. Para los niños hay bonitas calas, así como playas de 'balde y pala'; Uno de los mejores parques acuáticos de la zona está en Torre del Mar. Las famosas Cuevas de Nerja se encuentran a 25 minutos en coche. También hay grandes oportunidades para montar a caballo y en pony para todas las habilidades cerca de Competa.
Para aquellos que les gusta hacer turismo, además de Competa, hay muchos otros pueblos moros de Pueblo Blanco que esperan ser explorados. Un poco más lejos, Granada y el Palacio de la Alhambra están a una hora y media en coche. Sevilla y Córdoba están a menos de tres horas en coche. Para los entusiastas del golf, hay dos campos de golf de 18 hoyos a poca distancia en automóvil y el esquí en Sierra Nevada está a menos de 2 horas.
¡Aún más cosas que hacer!: Los amantes de las grandes puertas exteriores encontrarán algunos paseos espectaculares en los parques naturales de Sierra Tejeda y Almijara que están literalmente en la puerta. Puede probar los paseos suaves a lo largo de los canales de riego moros entre Cómpeta y Canillas a través de plantaciones de cítricos y aguacate. O para los más aventureros, las vistas desde la antigua ruta de mulas Málaga - Granada a 1000m son impresionantes.
Las delicias de las Sierras también se pueden experimentar cómodamente desde un safari 4X4 con almuerzo incluido.
Cómpeta: El pueblo cercano de Cómpeta (4 km - 10 minutos en auto) es un pueblo blanco muy típico. Puede ver las idas y venidas diarias desde la relativa tranquilidad de uno de los muchos restaurantes y bares de Competa. Competa tiene muchas comodidades, incluidos bancos, bares, restaurantes, cibercafés, supermercados, farmacias y panaderías. Muchos artistas se han asentado en la zona y recorrer las tiendas de artesanía y las galerías de arte de Competa es una forma gratificante de pasar unas horas. Cada sábado por la mañana hay un mercado en la plaza inferior de Competa. Por una pequeña tarifa, los visitantes pueden utilizar las agradables piscinas, jardines y canchas de tenis en el hotel Balcón de Cómpeta.

This was my 5th or 6th stay in Casa Olivia. It is the best holiday accommodation I have ever stayed in. Completely private, wonderful views, nice pool, and everything works!Also, the owners--and their local representatives Jenny and Carl--have been especially helpful on the latest occasion (I accidentally left an important possession behind , and they shipped it back to me in the UK.)

The road up into the hills from Torrox can indeed be a bit windy, but thankfully it is nice and wide, well paved and with a safety railing all the way along. The bends can be challenging but we always feel safe.
We hope we can welcome you back to Casa Olivia in the future.

Great Value for Money in a beautiful location
This is a classic Spanish country villa. It is quite high and has great views to the mountains. Very peaceful with good patio areas for dining and an outside grill for bbqs. Decent pool and plenty space for sunbathing. Close to Competa which is lovely and well worth a visit. Good restaurants there. Also not too far from Frigiliana which is also worth visiting.

What a wonderful ten days spent at Joshua’s and Charles’ beautiful place in the Spanish mountains! Wonderful views, beautiful pool, lovely location and absolute peace. The villa itself was very nice and extremely well equipped. Our hosts, Charles and Joshua, were wonderful and were very keen to ensure we had a love ly time and that everything was to our liking. Would thoroughly recommend for anyone seeking peace and solitude away from the madding crowds! That said, if you can bear to drag yourselves away from Casa Olivia, then Competa, the local town, is lovely and only a short drive as is the coast. Lovely!

Stunning villa
Casa Rosaleda was exactly as described on the website. The views from the terraces are outstanding. The villa and its pool were exceptional.
Mac's attention to detail made all the arrangements very straightforward and the clarity of his information sheets helped the holiday run smoothly.
For those who can drag themselves away from the pool and go hiking there are comprehensive instructions for many wonderful walks.
We would have no hesitation in staying at the villa again if visiting the area.

Wonderful, relaxing break
We had an absolutely blissful week staying at Casa Olivia. The grounds and the scenery were a total joy - we went out less than we usually do on holiday just because it was such a pleasure to sit and look at the mountains, enjoy the beautiful tranquillity and swim in the lovely pool. The house is comfortable and well-equipped, making cooking very easy - we enjoyed several barbecues with fresh fish from the supermarkets in Torrox and Nerja. We did eat out a few times in both Competa and Torrox, and it was fun getting to know these pretty towns. Communication with Joshua and Charles was pleasant and easy via the WhatsApp group that they set up - any questions were answered quickly and we were most grateful for this. In short - we were very reluctant to come home and we hope to return one day soon!

We had an absolutely amazing holiday at Casa Olivia. It’s the first time visiting this part of Spain. We love views and peace and quiet and being outside all day. For us it was perfect. The house is full of traditional rustic charm with all mod cons like super efficient air conditioning in the bedrooms, dishwasher, washing machine, absolutely pristine pool and top quality sun loungers. The views are breathtaking. The gardens and terraces provide sun and shade all day. Very well equipped kitchen and not forgetting the most comfortable king size bed! The hosts Joshua and Charles were easily and quickly accessible right from booking to check in and sorting any issues during the stay. Nothing was too much trouble. The house, pool and garden were absolutely immaculate. It’s certainly on our list of places to return to.

Beautiful Relaxing Villa
We recently had a fantastic break at Casa Olivia. The villa is located among the hills between Torrox and Competa and is easily accessed by car.
The villa is very well equipped and has a very homely feel about it. There are lots of personal touches throughout the villa that make it feel less like a rental property.
The grounds are beautifully kept and the perfect place to relax totally in the peace and quiet.
Communication with the owners was very easy via a Whatsapp group or email.
We've stayed in this area several times and this villa was one of the best and we highly recommend it

Lovely peaceful setting, didn’t see a sole! I would recommend an automatic car as the roads to the villa and the drive is very steep, the owner sets up a what’s app group for any communication which is excellent.

Casa Olivia was a perfect place for my wife and I to spend a month in Spain. It was also an ideal base and springboard from which to visit the historic cities of Andalusia, Granada, Sevilla, Córdoba and Ronda. For those who might look forward to more rest and relaxation, Casa Olivia is accurately described as “idyllic”. The house is comfortable and fully equipped, the property perfectly maintained and the mountain views authentic Spain. When a municipal water problem arose, the owners were on to it immediately and it was quickly resolved. Overall Casa Olivia gets five stars!

Thank you so much Peter! It was an absolute pleasure having you and your wife stay at Casa Olivia and we would happily welcome you back again in the future if your travel plans bring you back to southern Spain.
Take good care.
Acerca de su propietario/a
Propietario/a: Charles & Joshua
We are an Australian-Dutch couple living in Amsterdam. We fell in love with Andalusia and the Axarquia region some years ago. We are thrilled to have a home away from home in the beautiful countryside that we can share with others. We are avid hikers and love exploring the local hikes in La Axarquia, but also when we go on holiday to other countries. Our dog, Olivia (who we have now named the villa after) is a lively, adventurous former rescue dog who brings a lot of joy to our lives. We are passionate about the environment and finding ways to live as sustainably as possible, We are gradually making Casa Olivia more and more sustainable and strive to use environmentally friendly products where possible.
Por qué escogió este alojamiento
Casa Olivia is an ideally located, well proportioned and perfectly maintained villa, situated in the peaceful Axarquia countryside. One of two houses on a short fully paved driveway off the main Torrox-Competa road it is very easy to get to and also very accessible for the villages of Competa and Torrox, hiking in the nearby national parks and countryside and the beautiful unspoilt beaches east of Nerja. Fully self contained it is stocked with high quality appliances, kitchen equipment and facilities to ensure a peaceful and relaxing stay. As it is our "home away from home" we take pride in it and do our best to ensure it is very comfortable place to stay for others. We have been fortunate that our guests also treat it with respect so that others can continue to enjoy it.
Note: The property was previously known as Casa Rosaleda but have changed it to Casa Olivia after our dog. The property was taken off the rental market for a couple of years, which is why there is a break in the reviews. We have decided to put the property back on the holiday rental market so that others can enjoy our wonderful villa and the beautiful environment.
Qué hace que este alojamiento sea especial
The views from around the house are incredibly spectacular and diverse. We love having morning coffee out front, watching the sun kiss the mountain tops, breakfast and lunch on the side terrace with the view framed by the established palm trees and dining in the barbecue area at the end of the pool with the beautifully framed views of the neighbouring hills to La Maroma.
Peaceful and quiet you do sometimes hear the bells of the local goat herder which anchors you in the countryside. We regularly see hawks and birds of prey hovering over the valley. At night the hillsides sparkle with the lights of distant villas and the skies are filled with stars. There is very little light pollution in this area and we love looking at the Milky Way.
The pool is a great size to relax in and cool down from sunning yourself on the extensive terraces. The passive solar heating, takes to chilly edge off the water and helps extend the pool use season from April/May through to October (depending on the sun shining of course - which there is little chance that it wont!)
We have a small citrus grove behind the pool terrace area. Please feel free to help yourself to citrus fruits (when in season) . Limequats are delicious in a gin and tonic. There are a selection of herbs in the garden behind the house so please feel free to use them in your cooking and cocktails.
