Villa Cerro Gordo with private Pool – La Herradura
Perched above the coastline in the Cerro Gordo area of La Herradura, Villa Cerro Gordo is a spacious private villa offering open Mediterranean sea views, generous outdoor living and a calm, elevated setting surrounded by nature. Designed for guests who value space, privacy and relaxed coastal living, the villa enjoys light throughout the day and long, uninterrupted views across the sea.
The villa accommodates up to 10 guests and is arranged over multiple levels, allowing groups to enjoy shared spaces while still maintaining privacy. It offers four ensuite bedrooms, all with sea views, creating a comfortable and well-balanced layout for families or groups travelling together.
Within the main house, two bedrooms are located on the first floor, while a third bedroom sits on the main ground floor, providing flexible sleeping arrangements. The master bedroom, located on the upper floor, features a walk-in wardrobe and direct access to the shared terrace on this level. In addition to the ensuite bathrooms, the villa also includes two separate guest WCs, one on the upper level and one on the lower level.
The fourth bedroom is located in a separate pool-level annex, positioned behind the sunbed area and accessed via its own private entrance. This suite offers a more independent feel and is ideal for families travelling with older children or teenagers, or for guests who appreciate additional privacy. The room includes a double bed and an additional bed that converts into a double-style sleeping arrangement. The ensuite bathroom is accessed from inside the annex and can also be accessed directly from the pool terrace, making it practical during the day.
The main living areas open directly onto the pool terrace through large patio doors, creating a natural indoor-outdoor flow. The kitchen opens straight onto the terrace and pool area, making it easy to enjoy relaxed meals throughout the day. By the pool, a shaded dining area with an awning provides a comfortable space to eat or unwind, while at the far end of the terrace near the annex there is a dedicated gas barbecue preparation area with an additional fridge, ideal for outdoor cooking.
The private swimming pool, approximately 18 metres in length, is not heated and offers plenty of space for swimming and cooling off during the warmer months. The pool terrace forms the heart of the villa’s outdoor living space and is complemented by a ping-pong table and a small selection of gym equipment for guests who like to stay active.
Private, closed parking is available for one car, with additional street parking available nearby. Peaceful, elevated and quietly confident, Villa Cerro Gordo is well suited to guests seeking sea views, privacy and effortless outdoor living in a natural coastal setting.

Wonderful villa located up a mountain with amazing views of the Med. Villa had everything we needed for a relaxing stay, including a fabulous large pool and great outside living/dining area.
Sam was very responsive and professional. We would definitely return.

Great location and amazing views but disappointing facilities
The villa is set in a stunning location with fantastic views down the coast and of the mountains. The villa was spacious but the facilities (bathrooms and kitchen in particular) were very tired, shabby and poorly equipped. The showers were very small, old and claustrophobic. Similarly the kitchen was shabby (cupboard doors missing, very old and ineffective oven and microwave) and poorly equipped (range if kitchen utensils poor and most if the crockery was old chipped and limited … no complete sets if anything).

Gorgeous views and fabulous house
We loved the house and the location but found a couple of short comings for a house of this size:1. There were no instructions specific to the house - the booklet in the house only contained general stuff with lots of ‘no this ‘no that’ but nothing to tell us eg where the 4th bedroom was or how the microwave or heaters worked. 2. This was a high quality house but the equipment provided was very poor: eg the toaster - a poor quality 2 slice toaster when the house accommodates 10 people!Many of the bowls and plates had chips in them. One glass even had loose broken shards of glass on the inside. We were only just saved from a nasty accident there.I understand that some people do not look after holiday property very well but I think this house deserves a bit better!. 2.

Thank you for your feedback and for choosing to stay at our home. We’re pleased to hear that you loved the house and its location.
Regarding the house instructions, we do provide a comprehensive booklet with details about the property, appliance usage, and recommendations for local services such as doctors, restaurants, and taxis. We encourage guests to review it for helpful guidance during their stay. However, we understand that preferences vary, and we appreciate your perspective.
As for the kitchen equipment, we regularly inspect and replace items as needed, but we regret that some did not meet your expectations. We will certainly review these aspects to ensure our high standards are maintained.
Additionally, we must note that the house was left with a strong odor, which required additional cleaning. While we strive to accommodate all guests comfortably, we kindly remind future visitors to respect house rules regarding pets and cleanliness to ensure a pleasant stay for everyone.
We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to host you. Wishing you all the best in your future travels!
Einfach nur ein Traum. Der Ausblick haut ein um. Es gibt wirklich nichts negatives zu berichten. Wir haben uns von der ersten bis letzten Sekunde unglaublich wohl gefühlt.
