About this property

Villa Abajo

A home away from home - a haven of peace and relaxation.



This is a charming and independent villa that is clearly very loved by its owners. Once you are here, you will agree that this is not “just another holiday villa”. Both inside and outside areas are well taken care of and meant for long term living, leading to a very comfortable.





Location and outside area

This delightful villa is truly the place for total rest and relaxation. The villa is set within a private residential area of the Valtocado Urbanization, at 4.6 Kms. west of Mijas Pueblo. Tucked away in the hills, it’s intimate and cosy, with a beautiful mature garden with a great variety of vegetation, including a “Madroño”, an evergreen shrub native to the Mediterranean region. A lawn area surrounds the splendid pool (9 x 4m long and 1.70m – 0.9m deep) and comes complete with sun loungers. There is also a small soccer goal to entertain the kids. The villa itself is located on a slightly higher level where you will also find a covered barbecue area with work top, water and power supply. Provided with a charcoal barbecue and patio furniture, it’s the ideal place for your alfresco diners. To the front of the villa is another sitting corner, a lovely place to end the day with a good book or perhaps a good Spanish wine.



For those who like to spend a day on the coast, it’s an easy 15 minutes’ drive to Cala de Mijas where you will find a long sandy beach. Just an hour from here, you can explore historic Ronda, with its 120m deep chasm, medieval town centre, shops, pretty squares and palaces - well worth a visit. Or the city of Malaga that nowadays hosts prominent museums and the Pompidou centre.





Inside and lay-out

The dedication of the owners for the outside areas of this villa is also reflected in its interior. With all the rooms in a single floor, this it is a very comfortable villa with a lot of charm. The furniture and the decoration are of excellent quality and have been chosen with eye for detail, evoking a homely feel. From front terrace, the front door opens into the lounge, equipped with a sofa and arm chair, flat screen TV with satellite reception, DVD and Radio/CD player (please note that a new 32” flat screen TV has been installed recently, a little smaller than the one in the pictures). The lounge gives access to a cosy dining area, with dining table for 6, and the adjacent open-plan kitchen. The kitchen is decorated with use of wood and Andalusian tiling and well equipped with 4 rings gas hob, fridge/freezer, electric oven, microwave, washing machine and dishwasher. There are two twin bedrooms with wardrobe and a master double bedroom that makes use of the wardrobe in the adjacent corridor. There are 2 family bathrooms, both equipped with bath, separate shower, basin and WC.





Notes:

- Air conditioning is available in the bedrooms and optional at 70 EUR per week.

- A WiFi Internet connection is available ** free of charge **.

Lovely house with beautiful garden

We loved our stay in vila Abajo! The garden and pool are wonderful and the house had all the comfort we needed. Close to Mijas, which is a lovely little town with nice restaurants. The road to the house is a bit adventurous, so you will need a car. The communication with the rental organisation and the owners was very good. We hope to come again here sometime!

We have just returned from our week in this beautiful Villa

We have just returned from our week in this beautiful Villa. The photos do not do it justice. The house and gardens are immaculate. The pool is gorgeous, lovely and warm and bigger than we expected. It really was the perfect place to relax and unwind. We were greeted by our hosts (we arrived early as it wasn’t as far from the airport as I had anticipated, only about 30 minutes). Maria and her family were so lovely and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble. There are shops near by, and lots of things to do but you will need a confident driver with you as some of the roads are a bit hair-raising, but ok once you have done it a few times. We would definitely love to come back again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this villa. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Wonderful!

We absolutely loved staying here. The owners built the house by hand and there’s so much love and detail in the design. They are also lovely people. Their entire family lives on the same street. The house is very clean and comfortable. We loved laying by the pool and making dinner at home. The garden is stunning and there’s many places to sit and enjoy the weather. I would recommend they get cushions for the sun beds (they’re very hard now) and some more serving platters and bowls. The little road to the house is very narrow & steep, so a confident driver and not too big a car is recommended. We loved it here! Highly recommend!

Bij aankomst viel het al direct op hoe netjes en schoon alles was

Bij aankomst viel het al direct op hoe netjes en schoon alles was. We hebben heel erg genoten van de prachtige onderhouden tuin, het schone en fijne zwembad en de heerlijke ligging. Vanuit hier hebben we allerlei prachtige plekken bezocht zoals Malaga, Mijas, Ronda en Cordoba. dichtbij het strand gelegen (20 minuutjes met de auto) We voelden ons extra welkom doordat de host even persoonlijk gedag kwam zeggen. We hebben ontzettend genoten van onze week in deze heerlijke accomodatie. De wegen in de urbanization zijn wat smal en steil en voor een onervaren rijder misschien wat minder toegankelijk, persoonlijk helemaal geen problemen gehad. Nogmaals het was heel erg genieten en goed verzorgd. Zeker een aanrader! .

Amazing place in the hills some 10 min by car from Mijas pueblo (total 20 min from Fuengirola). The garden is huge and on two levels, all with grass with many shady areas which is important in the hot summer. The pool is great for young kids (90-170 cm deep) but one can swim in it too. The barbecue area is great and shady, great for evening dinners under the sky too. The kitchen is fully equipped (to note the huge fridge and freezer) and the A/C in the three bedrooms (additional fee) came to good use in August as the house otherwise gets hot inside at the end of the day. Two cars easily parked in front of the house. There is no vis-a-vis from any part of the garden so we enjoyed complete privacy. Overall, accommodation was perfect.

This is a fantastic Villa that was very very clean, well kept and is in a great location for exploring the rest of Andalucía. The pool and the surrounding grounds are well kept and the barbecue/out door eating space was outstanding for lazy evenings of food, wine and family time. Ralph the host was exceptional making himself available to call's at any time ( I had to call him early on a Sunday morning). The views from the villa are fabulous with the most amazing sunsets! The whole week was one of the most laid back relaxing weeks I have had. The only very small fault for us was that we could of done with more bedding as it did get a little cold at night. We would without doubt return to this great Villa and I would like to thank the owner for a great stay!

Nice villa but car essential

Nice villa situated in hills and car access a bit demanding from the driver at first but then you get used to it. Kitchenware was insufficent for 5 people and some basic tools and serving ware were totally missing. Good pool and very peaceful are with very nice views to the mountains. Some trouble to get warm water time to time.

Clean beautiful house with just five minutes to Mijas. It's a quiet and relaxing place near what Costa Del Sol has to offer. Two mins away with car to the hiking trail which was a very nice feat. Would recommend to anyone to stay here.

My family and me stayed had amazing time in this property. We absolutely loved the place: the view and the outside area is amazing - pool, grass, bbq area, a couple more places to hang out, just superb. The inside is very comfortable and stylish. This place is well cared for and one gets an instant feeling of hospitality - as if you arrived to a friend's place, not to an anonymous rental place. We didn't meet the owner, everything went smooth. The place is not very close to the coast which I take as a plus because it means it is nice and quiet and offers a great number of daytrips one can do from this place. If you like to see more than just crowded beach promenades, this is the place to go. We have visited places within reach: Mijas, Ronda, Torcal, El Chorro, nearby hiking trails - all worth a visit. Cheers!
