About this property

Beautiful 3 bedrooom Villa with Private pool, unspoiled views, close to Competa

Casa La Higuera nestles on the hillside on the edge of the beautiful mountain village of Canillas de Albaida and the national park of Sierra de Almijara, less than an hour’s drive from Malaga airport. It's a 5 minute drive (20 min walk) to Competa and only 20 minutes drive to the local beaches.

This attractive, well-equipped villa has unsurpassed views of the sea and surrounding hills yet is within easy walking distance of supermarkets and restaurants.

Casa La Higuera offers 3 double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and a private swimming pool.

The main villa houses the master bedroom and a twin bedroom. Both with ceiling fans and fitted wardrobes with views over the countryside.

The family shower room has been recently refurbished with crisp white tiles and modern fittings.

The house then is open planned with the lounge, kitchen and dining area flowing in a light and airy room.

The main house has a newly fitted modern kitchen with fridge-freezer, microwave, oven, gas hob, dishwasher and wine cooler.

The lounge has a TV and free wi-fi. A log burning for the cooler months.

The double (twin) bedroom and en-suite is in a separate casita a few steps behind the main house, with its own small terrace, perfect for visitors seeking privacy or grandparents wishing to escape for some peace and quiet.

Outside, the property has its own private 8mx4m pool and plenty of shaded seating areas for relaxing and dining. The gardens are mature and private with gated access. The views from the villa are stunning.

There is parking for 2 vehicles.

The local village, Canillas de Albaida is just a few minutes walk from the villa, with access to several bars and restaurants and a few small local supermarkets for your essentials. The larger village of Competa is just five minutes drive or 20 minutes walk

About the host

Hosted by Nick Hurford

Host profile image
My family and I have been coming to this villa for the last 12 years and it really is our happy place. The magic of the mountains gives you the ability to switch off, relax and feel restored by the time you leave. We love spending time here and exploring the local area and wish we could spend more time in Spain, but for now, we want to be able to share it with more people through renting the property out.

Why they chose this property

After renting many villa's throughout Europe on our family holidays, we finally found a place where we wanted to return again and again. We fell in love with the scenery, climate and laid back way of life. As soon as you arrive you feel relaxed and will certainly never tire of the amazing views from our terrace. I love the area so much I actually got married at the bottom of the mountain!

There's no shortness of activities nearby too. There are padel courts in the local village, tennis courts in Competa, countless cycle routes if you're bringing your own bike, and companies to hire them from too. We'd be happy to give you the details of our favourite routes! If you'd like to go down to the beach, the bustling town of Nerja is 30 minute drive away where you can spend the day kayaking around the coves, exploring the old town and have some amazing food - and of course relax on the beach.

What makes this property unique

Casa La Higuera has a rural feeling, but nestled on the edge of Canillas de Albaida. The villa is not overlooked and has panoramic views from the terrace, yet it's just a 5 minute walk to the centre of the village for the local shop which does fantastic bread along with all the other amenities. There's also lots of good restaurants that we'd be happy to recommend to you when you visit us. Competa is a 20 minute walk away with plenty more restaurants and a few shops.

The garden and terraces face south west so sunshine all day, ending with the perfect Gin and Tonic spot watching the sun set over the mountains, complete with a lemon from our own lemon tree.
