About this property

Ranked among the 21 most pleasant villas in Andalusia by the TIMES in 2023

Classified by the TIMES, in April 2023, among the 21 most pleasant villas in Andalusia, this house will allow you to spend an exceptional stay.
Erected facing the sea and overhanging the pretty white village of Las Negras, the villa enjoys a spectacular view.
Built in the mountain, with numerous terraces in shaded nooks, the villa remains cool during the summer.

You will enjoy cooling off in the infinity-edge pool while contemplating the sea. You will be able to admire the landscape in the shade of the olive, orange and palm trees in a well-kept garden.

Fully equipped with all modern conveniences, the villa will allow you to have a relaxing stay nearby a village that remains lively all year round.

Las Negras is a charming fishing village that’s located in the Natural Maritime Park of Cabo de Geta, one of the last parts of the Mediterranean coast that remains untouched.

Located in the region that enjoys the most hours of sunshine in Europe, life is good here all year round.

The village faces a remarkable hill, the Cerro Negro, which has inspired many writers and artists due to its spectacular geology.
Behind this hill, only reachable by boat or on foot, lies the Cala San Pedro cove, famous for its beauty. The discovery of this site is the opportunity for a nice hike.

The pretty clear water coves and the cliffs at Las Negras attract diving and sea aficionados.
This is the ideal village where you can rest, relax and enjoy very pleasurable festive nights in the village’s many bars, restaurants and discotheque.

Very near to Africa and located in the Almeria province, Andalusia will reveal all its charms to you.
Its sub-desert Mediterranean climate has shaped the arid landscape where haciendas, cacti and palm trees are scattered here and there. The contrast is striking with the softness of the blue sea, the fine sandy beaches and the spectacularly eroded coves.

Classed as a biosphere reserve by the Unesco, the Cabo de Gata natural reserve presents a unique and fragile volcanic coastline for exceptional hikes from villages to small ports.
San José, La Isleta del Moro, Las Negras, Rodalquilar, Aguamarga are some of the many small fishing villages where many artists, poets and nature lovers have come to settle in.

A few kilometres away from the Casa del Olivo, you will discover El Cortijo de El Fraile that inspired Federico García Lorca’s Blood Wedding and less than two hours car drive away, you may equally visit several wonders of Andalusia in the Granada province: the Calahorra château, Guadix and its troglodyte houses, Las Alpujarras with its beautiful white villages, the heights of the Sierra Nevada and also the town of Granada with its Albaicin Arab quarters and the extraordinary palace and gardens of the Alhambra.

Superb!
A lovely villa overlooking a small Spanish town and Mediterranean Sea - like waking up in a dream every morning - especially watching the sunrise over the sea. Infinity pool was a little cool in October, but refreshing after taking any of the numerous hikes in the area (don’t miss San Pedro Castle and Cove!). So many things to enjoy on the property, including tons of outdoor patio options (all with views of the sea), a gorgeous courtyard, exquisite garden and roomy, comfortable, stylish interior. Easy to venture out on day trips and very good local places to buy groceries and eat out. Angel was super responsive and helpful. Couldn’t ask for more!

Casa El Olivo
La casa es espectacular, con unas vistas increíbles del pueblo Las Negras y el mar al fondo. Es una casa llena de rincones donde estar y descansar, con varias terrazas y una piscina desde donde se pueden disfrutar de los amaneceres. Ángel muy atento en todo momento. ¡Espero volver pronto!

Wonderful Sunny June Week
Angel’s house is spacious, laid out over several levels on a hill side facing the sea. The pool, gardens and sculptural potted plants make for a beautiful and relaxing setting. We liked that the house felt like a well cared for home. We’d walk into Las Negras, or drive to Agua Amarga, or, one day, walked the coastal path to San Pedro beach & took a boat back - loved that. Thanks to Angel for all his helpful communication throughout our stay.

To benefit from the tranquillity and be very close to a village that is bustling all year long. It is one of the few areas of the Andalusian coast that is not affected by the property speculation.
