About this property

Poised among the peace and tranquillity of the breathtaking Andalusian hillsides, Villa Almogia offers a retreat away from your busy day-to-day lives. This comfortable, spacious holiday home offers enough room for six guests to rest, restore and revitalise, soaking in every moment of Spanish sun in this fantastic location. Complete with a separate 14' yurt, the villa is perfect for a group looking for something a little unique!

As you enter the villa, the warm and traditional atmosphere of the living spaces draws you in, with homely features blended with modern furnishings. In the lounge, the large sofas provide plenty of space for all the guests to get cosy in the evenings, particularly good for the cooler months. The kitchen is vast, equipped with all the appliances and cooking equipment you could need. The kitchen has plenty of space for group cooking, and the island in the heart of the room is perfect for friends and family to gather around whilst the head chef takes the reigns!

Three double bedrooms complete the villa; each room feels light and airy, with plenty of storage space for all your belongings. The simple, laid-back bedrooms offer a wonderful retreat for a moment of privacy for moments alone or as a couple. The first bedroom has an en-suite shower, whilst the other two share a family bathroom.

It is outdoors where Villa Almogia sets itself apart. Entering the garden from the patio doors in the kitchen, guests will step out onto a shady patio. Stretching out around the villa, the terrace offers you several al-fresco dining and terraced areas. The property is fully fenced with a private winding walking trail to the valley floor. Halfway along the path, you will find the 14' yurt, perfect for yoga, relaxation, and meditation, with three yoga mats provided for your use. With a private swimming pool, rooftop terrace, and so much more to offer, the delights of this quiet villa are never-ending, the perfect holiday escape in the Andalusian hills.

Poised among the peace and tranquillity of the breathtaking Andalusian hillsides, Villa Almogia offers a retreat away from the busier tourist areas of Spain. This quiet villa lies in the heart of Almogia, a small and typically Spanish town on the outskirts of Malaga. Almogia plays host to delicious Spanish restaurants, supermarkets, panaderias, pastelerías, and pescaderias, as well as various other family-owned shops, so you can find everything you might need nearby. There are also two additional excellent Spanish restaurants in the next village, Pastelero.

Andalusia is a region of Southern Spain that offers visitors extremely varied nature, with everything from golden beaches to mountain ranges with their highly interesting fauna, as well as the famous "white villages" and their rich culture. These villages are known for their white-washed homes and small cobbled streets. A spot like this always feels like the best of both worlds, guests can enjoy all the serenity and nature around the property, yet the vibrant, faster-paced streets of Malaga are just 25km away!

Malaga itself offers an enticing blend of culture and sea, with a lively atmosphere that bustles through the numerous tapas bars and restaurants. If the 16 sunny beaches weren't enough to keep you busy, this Andalusian city has a fascinating cultural side. As the birthplace of Pablo Picasso, there is a history of art and design, with beautiful museums and monuments for all tastes. On the shores of the Mediterranean, there is plenty to fall in love with within this awe-inspiring city, making it well worth a few trips during your stay.

The Costa del Sol coastline stretches along the Mediterranean, with endless beaches, towns, and attractions for visitors to delve into. For beach lovers, the list is endless, with Cabopino and Nikki beaches being amongst the most beautiful and popular in the area. The area draws tourists in with its warm climate and average year-round water temperature of 18°C, yet once people arrive, it does not take long to realise quite how much the Costa del Sol has to offer!

  • Jim

    A beautifully presented villa with large comfortable rooms, a superb kitchen and quality furnishings.

  • Charlotte & Jon

    We had a wonderful stay. The location was perfect, stunning views across the hills and so private. Car hire is required and there is so much to explore around you from the beaches, cities and towns, mountain walks and inland lakes. The villa itself is perfect for a family stay, we were a young family of 4 and the set up was brilliant. It was clean and had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. Little touches like the drinking water tap, poolside shower and the hidden barbecue terrace with the hammocks meant we could relax and enjoy our stay here. Julie and Alan were so welcoming and even introduced us to their horses which the children loved. We would highly recommend this villa for anyone who either wants a very peaceful, relaxing break or wants to explore this part of Spain and all the wonders it has to offer. The villa provides a welcome return after a day exploring.
