Beautiful Villa in Cómpeta, Málaga – Private Pool, Views & Oct–Mar Discounts
*Description*
Relax at our gorgeous 3-bedroom villa, only a 4km (5 mins drive or 40 mins walk) to central Cómpeta, an hour's drive to Malaga Airport & 30 30-minute' drive to the stunning beaches of Nerja & Caleta de Velez. Located in the foothills of the Sierra de Tejeda National Park with spectacular views from the terrace of the mountains and the Mediterranean Sea, the area has some of the best cycling, skiing and hiking in Spain. Enjoy live music, fiestas, tapas, bars & restaurants in the bustling market square & cobbled streets!
The villa is beautifully presented and decorated to a high standard with quality fixtures and fittings. The spacious property has three bedrooms and can comfortably sleep 6. It is less than a 10-minute drive or a 40-minute walk to central Cómpeta. It has excellent access down a concrete track and stunning countryside views, as well as down the valley to the Mediterranean Sea. The villa is superbly presented:
Outside, the covered terrace offers a beautiful space for relaxing and al-fresco dining surrounding the 8m x 5m (approx.) swimming pool with Roman steps. The villa is surrounded by a lovely garden of trees and plants, plenty of shade for sunbathing and a barbecue area. There is air conditioning in the bedrooms and lounge, which has just been newly serviced (Oct. 2022).
In the first bedroom, you will find a super king-size bed. In the next bedroom, twin beds can be joined to make a super king. The third bedroom contains two single beds. There are two bathrooms. The first bathroom has a toilet and sink and a walk-in shower. The second en suite bathroom has a toilet, sink, walk-in shower, and bath. As a self-catering villa, you'll find everything you need for a perfect stay. The modern American-style kitchen has a dishwasher, washing machine, fridge, hob, oven, toaster, coffee maker, kettle, freezer, and microwave.
*House Rules*:
Families only; no parties or groups under 25; check-in time is 4 p.m., and check-out time is 10 a.m. The property has free, accessible parking facilities. Pets and smoking are not permitted. For increased security, a surveillance camera is placed outside the building to actively monitor the driveway, ensuring safety for everyone.
*For day trips*:
The magnificent Picasso Museum in Malaga is one hour's drive; the Alhambra Palace in Granada is one of the oldest sites in Spain and is one and a half hours' drive; and Ronda's stunning deep gorge of Puente Nuevo is two hours' drive.
*Getting around*
From Malaga Airport (the nearest airport), the 68 km trip is easy and shouldn't take more than an hour. From the airport, head towards Velez Malaga along the A-7 motorway, and once you pass it, take the exit for A-7206 toward Algarrobo/N-3. Follow A-7206 to Cómpeta. You will drive through the village of Sayalonga on the way to Cómpeta. Follow signposts and GPS to the villa (all phone map apps will take you here correctly). You enter an (asphalt) road on the left-hand side, which is a little uneven but roadworthy, and drive down that road. The last 100 meters are on a new, fully concreted drive to the villa. You park your car in the private driveway. You have arrived! We will arrange for you to be met in central Cómpeta and taken to the villa. We recommend hiring a car as the villa is in the countryside, approximately a 5-minute drive from Cómpeta. There is a bus from Cómpeta to the coast and Malaga thrice daily.
*Other details to note*:
A welcome pack, linen, towels, and shower gel are all included to make your stay more enjoyable. There is a newly installed fast WIFI system; the pool is open from May until October. The dimensions (approx.) are 8m by 5m and 1.8m deep at the far end but shallow at the Roman steps. We have laid a new, fully concreted drive to the villa. The top of the track to the road is a little uneven but roadworthy.

About the host
Hosted by Christine Bowles Bowles

Hi – we’re Christine and Paul, a family of five (two adults, three children) plus our two much-loved cats. We live in a small village in the UK, nestled between London and Cambridge.
We love the outdoors and spending time together hiking, cycling, and skiing. Travelling is a big part of our lives – we really enjoy taking our children on overseas adventures to experience different cultures, foods, and ways of life.
For many years, we dreamed of owning a holiday home in the mountains of southern Europe – somewhere with sunshine, space, nature, and the freedom to be active or simply relax. In summer 2022, we made that dream come true when we bought our villa in beautiful Cómpeta, Málaga.
It’s a place where we love to unwind, enjoy the pool, explore the local trails and whitewashed villages, and soak up the incredible views and warm, welcoming culture of Andalusia.
Our villa is now open for bookings, and we’d love to share this special place with others. Whether you’re looking for an off-peak escape or an extended stay to enjoy the area like a local, you’re very welcome.
We hope you have a wonderful stay.
Best wishes,
Christine & Paul

Why they chose this property
We chose Cómpeta, Málaga because it truly offers the best of all worlds – stunning mountain scenery, charming whitewashed villages, proximity to the Mediterranean, and a wonderfully relaxed pace of life. From the very first time we visited, we fell in love with the area’s natural beauty, friendly atmosphere, and the sense of peace and space that surrounds you here.
The villa is perfectly placed for relaxing and unwinding, whether you want to sit by the pool with a book, enjoy al fresco meals under the stars, or explore the nearby countryside. The large private swimming pool is one of our favourite features – it’s ideal for cooling off in the summer months or simply floating and looking out at the mountains beyond. The outdoor BBQ area is great for lazy lunches and family dinners, and the well-kept gardens offer a lovely, peaceful setting.
Inside, the villa offers comfort and convenience. There’s a wide-screen television and free Wi-Fi, so you can stay connected or enjoy a cosy movie night. The property also includes a garage, making it easy to store bikes or rent a car and explore the surrounding area.
We also love that Cómpeta itself is a friendly, welcoming village with everything you need – from traditional tapas bars and artisan shops to local markets and walking routes that start right from the village centre. It’s a great base for hiking in the Sierra Almijara, day trips to the coast (just 30 minutes away), or visiting historic cities like Granada and Málaga.
Whether you’re visiting for a quiet escape, a family adventure, or a longer off-peak stay, we think you’ll find Cómpeta as magical as we do. It’s a place where you can truly slow down and reconnect with nature, culture, and yourself.

What makes this property unique
What makes our villa unique is its exceptional location and the unforgettable experience it offers. Nestled in the foothills of the Sierra de Tejeda National Park, our property boasts panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and, on clear days, the Mediterranean Sea in the distance. It’s the perfect spot to unwind, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and reconnect with nature — all while enjoying the comforts of a well-equipped, private home.
The villa offers a peaceful retreat with everything you need for a relaxing holiday. Step outside to a large private pool, beautifully maintained gardens, and a spacious terrace ideal for outdoor dining, sunbathing, or simply watching the sunset with a glass of local wine. With a built-in BBQ, garage, and full amenities inside — including a wide-screen TV, fast Wi-Fi, a modern kitchen and walk in showers — the property combines rustic Andalusian charm with modern comfort.
What truly sets the area apart is the outdoor lifestyle. Cómpeta and the surrounding national park are a paradise for hikers, cyclists, and even skiers. There are scenic walking and biking trails for all levels just minutes away, and in the winter months, you can drive to the Sierra Nevada for skiing and snowboarding. The coast is just 30 minutes away, offering the best of both mountain and beach life.
Unlike busier tourist areas, Cómpeta offers a more authentic Andalusian experience — a whitewashed village with friendly locals, traditional tapas bars, lively festivals, and a welcoming atmosphere year-round. Whether you’re planning a short break, a family holiday, or an extended winter stay, our villa offers a unique and memorable escape in one of Spain’s most scenic regions.
