Maro 004

Set in an idyllic landscape!

Discover this attractive south-facing villa, nestled within the Sierra de Almijara Natural Park — a truly unspoilt setting where peace and silence still reign. The surrounding area is remarkably diverse, combining a stunning coastline with high mountain peaks, dramatic cliffs, deep ravines, and picturesque rivers — all within the same region.



Location and outside area

This charming villa enjoys a privileged position in the spectacular scenery of the Sierra de Almijara Natural Park, offering a unique and tranquil rural retreat. Located a few kilometres east of Maro, a country road descends into the beautiful Río de la Miel valley. After approximately 2.5 km, the final 500 metres are along an unpaved track. This section includes some tight bends without guardrails; although not steep, it may not suit less confident drivers.



The villa features an inviting outdoor area with a private swimming pool (8m x 4m), surrounded by a variety of trees, plants, and flowers. A built-in barbecue makes al fresco dining on the shaded veranda effortless, while patio furniture and sun loungers provide the perfect setting to relax.



The area is ideal for walkers and nature lovers. After exploring the valley, you might enjoy a scenic walk along the cliffs of Maro or follow a route leading to the former sugar factory, part of the region’s industrial heritage. There are many more well-documented walking routes available through the apps Wikiloc and Alltrails.



For those who prefer the sea, you can explore hidden coves just outside the valley (approx. 3 km away) or visit the more expansive beaches of Maro (5 km) and Nerja (9 km).



Please note: due to the hilly terrain, mobile phone coverage can be irregular, although a signal is usually available from certain نقاط in the garden.



Inside and lay-out

The villa offers spacious accommodation, all on one level, decorated in a classic Spanish style. The cosy living and dining area features two sofas, an open fireplace, and satellite TV.

The master bedroom has a double bed and an en-suite bathroom with a shower over the bath, basin, and WC. A second double bedroom also benefits from an en-suite shower room with basin and WC. The third and fourth bedrooms are twin rooms. A third bathroom, with a shower over the bath, basin, and WC, is available for shared use.
