About this property

Near El Capistrano - Private Pool (optional heating add cost) Secure Parking


The villa is located in Fuente del Baden which is a small and quiet development of detached villas next to El Capistrano Village. The villa is perfect for self-catering holidays with a well equipped kitchen with all you would expect including electric oven and hob, dishwasher, microwave, full size fridge/freezer, air fryer and ample storage space. There is a Webber BBQ for al fresco dining on the terrace. If you fancy eating out the nearest restaurants and bars are a ten minute stroll or you can sample some of the many restaurants in the centre of town which are within a thirty minute walk or 5-10 minutes by car. There is also a local bus service running every hour from bus stops either on the main road or from Capistrano village. Burriana beach is a twenty minute walk or five minutes by car. Nearby, and within walking distance are other bars and restaurants, the paddle tennis club and two large supermarkets.

The villa has three double bedrooms all of which have air conditioning. The master bedroom has a veranda and an en suite bathroom. The open plan living area has a lounge with log burning stove. The dining area has a table which sits six people. Patio doors open onto the pool terrace. The smart TV in the lounge provides a range of English and Spanish Freeview channels, a video club with a selection of films and boxed sets, and selection of radio channels.

Outside the terrace looks out on to the private pool where you can relax on one of the sunbeds or take a dip in the pool. From the poolside you can admire the view over the open land to the sea beyond.

We also have a roof terrace in the front garden for early evening drinks, with lovely views both of the mountains behind and the coastline to the front.
In the front of the villa there is a garden and car port for off road parking behind the entrance gates to the property.

Malaga airport to the villa takes approximately 45 minutes. A bus runs from Malaga to Nerja. Buses also run from Nerja to Torre del Mar, Frigiliana, the Caves of Nerja and Almunecar.

Nerja is a fantastic central location. The Sierra Almijara Mountains behind Fuente del Baden are a National Park with great walks and views. The famous Caves of Nerja are a very short distance, and are some of the most spectacular in Spain.

Frigiliana is a short drive away, a typical whitewashed village set high in the mountains, with good restaurants, market and gift shops. A visit to the Alhambra Palace at Granada is a must (although it is essential to book a day or two in advance). There are golf courses within a short drive, and water-sports on the beach.

Our Managing Agents are located in the reception area of Capistrano village which is a ten minute walk from the villa (or short drive). They are open all year round. They maintain the villa on our behalf, and they will address any problems which occur during your stay. They can also help with excursions and any general information needs you may have.

Great villa and location

We stayed for a week in August. The villa was easy to find as the instructions were very good. We picked up the keys easily. The villa has everything you need like hairdryers, iron, etc. Air conditioning was good. Kitchen was well equipped with everything you would need. The pool area was nice and we enjoyed spending time there. The terrace out the front of the villa was nice to sit at during the evening. The villa is in a nice quiet area. We walked to the beach area a couple of nights. Other nights we drove to Balcon de Europa. There are plenty of nice restaurants and bars in Nerja. We had some beach days and there are plenty of nice beaches nearby. We also had days out in Malaga and even headed over to Marbella one day. We did lots locally too such as the caves and the Tuesday market. The villa is in a great location for this. We had a great stay at the villa.

Lovely holiday

As a family of 6 ( 3 couples ), we had a fantastic holiday at Villa Acebo. The villa was very well equipped with everything we needed. We like a mix of eating out and preparing our own food and the fantastically well equipped kitchen allowed us to feel home from home in doing so. The villa is set in a peaceful location and is really spacious with different seating areas which was great for the shade and the sun. We had coffee every morning on the roof terrace which was our favourite and with great views. We decided not to hire a car as we are all very mobile but in hindsight, would have been better for trips into Nerja and trips to the supermarket due to the heat. Also would have benefited from having a car when going to the beach which is about 15 mins walk down a very steep path. On our next visit, a car would definitely be on our list. All in all, the Villa and the pretty streets of Nerja lived up to our expectations and we'll definitely visit again.

A very relaxing week

Villa Acebo is a well equipped villa in a very quiet neighbourhood which is perfect for a relaxing break. As a family of three (mum, dad and teenage daughter) with our best friends (our daughter's god-parents), the villa layout worked perfectly for us - two bedrooms sharing a bathroom and a separate master suite with its own en suite. Communication with the owners was utterly first class - we had an horrific delay on the way out which meant we'd be arriving very (very!) late but Bob reassured us throughout and even checked in via email on our first day to check we'd arrived ok. This was very thoughtful and much appreciated! There was plenty of space around the pool for us all to sunbathe without getting on top of each other and there are different areas to enjoy a quiet breakfast or sundowner drinks - we especially liked the roof terrace! Due to our massive flight delay, the car hire at Malaga airport was closed so we instead got a taxi and, in fact, didn't bother with a car during our stay. Mercadona is within walking distance and on the couple of occasions that we had more than we could carry, it was easy to call a taxi. We spent one day on Burriana beach which offers a plethora of eateries and went back on our last evening for dinner at Rincon del Sol which we'd recommend! All in all, a thoroughly nice holiday!

Fabulous week away

Beautiful villa in a lovely quiet location. The air conditioning was a life saver in the heat wave. Villa was immaculately clean and the kitchen is fully equipped. Swimming pool is well maintained. The owner provides full information and support, if necessary. Thank you for a fabulous week away.

A fantastic time was had by all!

Exactly as described - the property was perfect for our needs. The pool was just the right size for our 3 year old to build his confidence in the water. The villa is a good size and the lay out perfect for the 5 of us to escape and get some quiet time if required. The check in/out process was easy and the host provided all the necessary info. Would definitely recommend and would love to stay again

Spacious Villa in Good Location

The villa is in a great location for Nerja as well as being within easy travel distance of the motorway for visiting the surrounding area. The villa is spacious (rooms are big), comfortable and well equipped - catering for your every need. We made good use of the pool during the hot afternoons. Parking was easy which is a big benefit as this can not always be said of many villas (we parked on street outside of the villa). Good communication with owners when booking, and check in & check out process very smooth. Overall we had a great holiday in a lovely villa in a good location

10 days in Nerja

We stayed 10 days at Villa Acebo, the villa is located up above Burriana Beach, and a short distance from the main restaurants and shopping. The pool was a great, as we used it everyday. The home had everything we needed for a pleasant stay, and the town has more than enough to offer travelers. I would recommend it to my family and friends.

Das Haus ist sehr geräumig und ruhig gelegen, der Service für Pool und Garten, und unbefriedigend.

Das Haus und die Umgebung sind super, der Weg zum Strand ist sehr anstrengend, zurück geht alles Bergauf. Der Service für Pool und Garten ließ zu wünschen übrig, am Pool lagen kaputte Pool Utensilien und gesäubert wurde er nur auf Anfrage, Blumen waren vertrocknet, hätte alles gepflegter sein können, in der Küche (Ameisenplage die auch bekannt sein musste) wir haben uns trotzdem gut amüsiert 👍

Great stay at Lindsey and Bob' villa.

The villa exceeded all our expectations. We had a wonderful stay and the air con as stated in the other reviews was fantastic. The location was perfect and the big pool was wonderful. I would love to visit Nerja again and will definitely use Lindsey and Bob's villa as it was a home from home and we wanted for nothing.

Family wedding

The villa did not disappoint. It is spacious and well equipped and the outside space is generous. Good points: privacy, cleanliness and space I don’t have any bad points but think we should have hired a car. Whilst taxis are convenient the cost mounted up over the course of the holiday. I would definitely recommend this villa to family and friends.

Fantastic Villa break

We spent a week in Nerja for the first time this Summer and were keen to find the perfect spot for our family of 6 to stay. Villa Acebo was the perfect choice, a great spacious and extremely well equipped property with the perfect sized pool which kept us all happy for the week of our stay. The villa is in a nice quiet location on the outskirts of Nerja in El Capistrano but it is still in easy walking distance of the local supermarkets for the daily shop, as well as being close enough to be able to walk to the nearest beach and closer still to the local bus service to be able to make the short journey to central Nerja. The Villa has great spacious bedrooms, kitchen and living areas as well as a more than adequate outdoor area to be able to find both sun and shade all day long and the pool is more than big enough to be able to swim and play in. All the equipment we could have hoped for was available and in good order so we wanted for nothing during our stay. We were also impressed by the fact we had access to British TV(though i note there were a great number of European channels also available) all of which is a bonus with young children to escape the midday heat for a short break between pool plunges, as well as a stereo ... all in all it felt almost as a home from home. I would also like to mention the owners who were very attentive, helpful and quick in responding to us at all stages of our stay from our original booking request through to our departure, making the whole experience one we are doubtless to repeat. 5 stars all round !!

Beautiful , Quiet Villa

Great location easy start off point to walk to the center of Nerja, walk to the caves or take a bus to Frigiliana .The Villa was a perfect location for our holiday. Far enough away from the main area to be quiet and peaceful . A car would be helpful but not an absolute necessity as there is great taxi service. During our stay there were a few nights of rain and we certainly appreciated the wide range of TV stations and the fast reliable internet. We did not make use of the pool as we were there early in the year and the water was to cold for us, but we made good use of the area around the pool and spent many late afternoons relaxing there. We spent most mornings and early afternoons walking about so we were very impressed with the well equipped kitchen as we cooked most evening meals there. I would highly recommend this Villa to anyone interested in a beautiful , peaceful place to stay.

Wonderful villa

The villa was amazing both inside and outside. There is plenty of room inside and the air conditioning is very good (and quiet). The beds were relatively comfortable, although a couple of extra pillows would not go amiss. The outside space and pool were great which is where most of the time is spent when you at the property. Everything was very clean and tidy on arrival and communication with the owners before the visit was excellent. Thanks for the use of your property!

Our stay at Villa Acebo

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Acebo. The villa was very clean and well equipped, comfortable inside but the outside area and furniture could have been a little more comfortable. The pool is brilliant and was a necessity because of the gorgeous weather. In this rural setting it is very quiet, day and night which makes for a very relaxing holiday.

Fabulous villa!

Fantastic villa! Just back from a 10 day stay at Villa Acebo and wish it could have been longer. Beautiful quiet location but still only 5 mins drive to Nerja centre and Burinana beach. The villa is spotless, we actually arrived early as the cleaners were in and they were meticulous, getting into corners I wouldn't have done myself! Aircon in all bedrooms fab as it was extremely hot for this time of year. Beds the comfiest we have had in years of renting villas in the Area and best equipped kitchen . The pool area, superb, great sunbeds, pool so clean and clear. Also great outside eating areas, shaded when required and charcoal BBQ! Tv has all the channels if you desire, but we didn't avail as it was too nice outdoors. Oh, must mention wifi too as perfect and at no extra charge. The only thing I would have liked would be a full length mirror somewhere , but maybe it's good that there wasn't one! All in all, we would definitely stay here again, in fact we looked at end of September, but it is already booked, so maybe next year. Thank you for a great stay guys!

About the host

Hosted by Lindsay & Bob Rendall

Host profile image
We are an English couple who live in the UK. We first visited Nerja on holiday with our two daughters in 1999. We fell in love with Nerja with its relaxed Spanish feel, and said that we would love to have a property in Nerja in the future. We returned in 2004 and bought a 2 bedroom house in Capistrano village, which we rented and enjoyed ourselves for eleven years.

We purchased Villa Acebo in 2015 with future retirement thoughts in mind, and in the medium term to use as a rental opportunity and to enjoy for our holidays.

Thank you for looking at our villa, and we hope you enjoy Nerja and its surrounding areas as much as we do. Do please contact us if you have any questions on the villa.

Why they chose this property

We chose this villa in Fuente del Baden due to its setting in a small quiet development with other similar properties with views across open land to the sea. It is well situated for access both to Nerja town and its beaches, and also for exploring further afield with a good motorway link and scenic coastal roads. Visits to the Nerja caves, Frigliana, Granada and the Alhambra palace, the many beaches and villages along the coast, and a drive into the Almijara mountains are all within reasonable reach.

We feel it is a great location whether you are looking for a beach holiday, mountain walking in the national park, or exploring what the eastern end of the Costa del Sol has to offer.

What makes this property unique

We like the open plan living style of the villa, with the lounge and dining area, and adjacent kitchen, leading out on to the terrace and poolside. There are lovely views from the poolside over open land to the sea.

There is a large master bedroom with a veranda which looks out over the pool to the country and sea. The room has its own private en suite bathroom. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are double bedrooms with ample wardrobe space.

To the front of the villa is a roof terrace with 360 degree views of the mountains to the rear and the coastline and Nerja to the front. There is a front garden and car port for off road parking behind the gates to the property
