Villa in Arenas

This comfortable 3-bedroom villa for 6 guests (3 doubles) is located in the hills above Arenas, offering peace, privacy, and breathtaking views of the Mediterranean and Velez Málaga valley. Guests can relax in the private swimming pool or enjoy the terrace with garden furniture and a gas barbecue. The fully equipped kitchen includes oven, microwave, coffee machine, dishwasher, and fridge. Floor heating and a wood stove ensure winter warmth. A children's bed and high chair are available on request. Free WiFi and on-site parking are provided. Beaches are 9 km away, golf 13 km, and nearby towns offer restaurants and shops. The access road is 7 km, partly steep but newly cemented. Following changes effective 1st of July 2025 in vacation rental legislation in Spain, all homeowners are now required to collect detailed information from incoming guests. This includes the full names, ID numbers, addresses, gender, and country of residence for each member of your group. To ensure a smooth and timely check-in, we kindly ask that you share this information before your arrival day with either the homeowner or caretaker. You can send the details via the email addresses provided on your Ticket of Stay.

For walks from the house either backtrack on the road in direction Algarrobo. Take a left up the pass leading down to Arenas. At the highest point (look for the sign with the exclamation mark!) turn right up towards the castle\/ruin of Bentomiz. You can continue further towards the sea and return by catching the road up to the house (from Algarrobo). The walk takes less than two hours. In Arenas (also a nice walk down) make sure to have lunch at Juani's right before the City Hall. It's the one with a wild boar head on the wall (inside). It's cheap, no-nonsense food and you'll mingle with locals and farmers from nearby. For newspapers, maps and second hand books in several languages, visit the store on Plaza de la Paz (Calle Infantes 32) in Torre del Mar. For those who want to shop ecologically, there is a shop on the same square. In Torre del Mar we have a soft spot for Marisqueria El Yate - splendid sea food at a good price. Of the many chiringuitos on the beach, we especially recommend Victoria and Varela. Pizza and pasta at La Mamma II (Avenida Andalucía 63) is nice thing to do on a hot summer evening. They have an outside terrace. You mostly eat better in Torre del Mar, but don’t miss Nerja, which is really beautiful (and much more touristic). Ice cream on Balcon de Europa is a must. El Pulguilla (Calle del Almirante Ferrándiz, 26) is a really nice bar\/restaurant. They serve great tapas inside at the bar or meals on a huge outdoor terrace with a back door entrance from the very large outdoor parking space just east of the Balcony. Marina (on the square with the same name) is also recommended. Swimming: Torre del Mar is very local and atmospheric. Nerja has more cliffs and a more spectacular setting. And you can even swim on the beaches to both sides of the Balcony – right in the center of town. But nothing beats the beaches in the Nature Park starting after Maro (which has a decent beach as well). Playa Cantarrijan is a favorite - you walk or take the bus down from the main road. There are two restaurants on the beach – and some nudists in the water. Canuelo beach is wider and also has a good restaurant. Again: It’s a nature reserve, so park by the road and take the bus down. Enjoy!
