Description
OVERLOOKING THE SEA ON THE COSTA TROPICAL: ALL YEAR ROUND LOCATION FOR SEA AND SKI; OUTSTANDING VIEWS
• 2 storey house in small gated community of 14 family houses
• Suitable for quiet couples and families
• 5 minutes from the beaches and town
• 60 minutes from Granada and 90 minutes to the ski slopes at Sierra Nevada.
• 70 minutes from Malaga airport
An all-year-round location, suitable for sea and ski, La Rijana sits on top of a headland. Our house looks out over the pool and the sea. From the windows and terrace, you can watch sunrise and sunset, follow the fishing boats and may even be lucky enough to spot dolphins just off the coast. On a clear day, you can have views across to Africa. You can see the coast from Motril to Punta de la Mona and all the surrounding mountains.
La Rijana is entered through a remote controlled gate and positioned just below an ancient Moorish tower, in a peaceful, residential, exclusive area of Almuñecar, known as Los Pinos, (The Pines). It consists of 14 houses, most of which are second homes and so it is generally extremely quiet. The communal pool (10m x 8m with Roman steps), which overlooks the sea, is open all year.
The house has rustic floor tiles throughout, is double-glazed and is equipped with AC and heating (modest use only). Fans are also provided for the bedrooms.
The well-furnished lounge/diner has remote controlled TV, DVD, pay-as-you-go Wi-Fi and a Hi-Fi (jack socket / bluetooth for ipod etc). There is a collection of books, games, CDs and DVDs, together with a comprehensive information file. Please note that all UK channels may not be available. International channels are not available and no programme information or advance schedules are included.
The kitchen, with granite surfaces, has induction hob, combination convection/grill/microwave oven, washer, large fridge-freezer, electric kettle and toaster, French coffee press etc and in addition, is well supplied with crockery and glassware for indoor and outdoor use. Despite the fact that here is a washing machine, I find it much easier to go to Speed Queen launderette at Calle Cristobal Colon 2, where you can wash and dry very cheaply in less than an hour and with help from the lovely attendant!
Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms, all with sea views. The master bedroom, with king bed has an en-suite bathroom. The other 2 bedrooms have twin beds (bedroom 3 with a stow-away bed). There is a second bathroom. Both bathrooms have WC, shower, basin and bidet.
Patio doors open onto a terrace which stretches over 2 sides, giving superb sea, mountain and pool views. There is a retractable sun canopy, teak dining table, side table and chairs and 2 sun loungers.
The grounds
• The house has its own parking space outside
• Shared pool (10m x 8 m) with Roman steps
• Gardens
• Protected parking within gated community
Please note: All guests must agree to abide by the rules of the residential community and the house and agree to respect the property and other residents. No party groups are accepted and noisy and irresponsible behaviour is also not acceptable.

“Relaxing summer getaway”
Spent 10 days in the villa and loved every minute of it. We would recommend a hire car from Malaga airport as the villa is only an hour or so away on an easy route but is located on a headland above t… More

“Great base for variety of activities in the area”
The house is in a great location, out of the bustle of the town but only a short walk to some wonderful restaurants. There are lots of water activities on your doorstep and only an hour from amazing G… More

Response from the owner Thanks for your great review. For once we've had the opportunity of behaving like holidaymakers too, as all the family are out. We've spend 3 glorious relaxing days at different beaches and feasted at the beach restaurants!

“Prachtig uitzicht op zee!”
Almunecar is een stadje met mogelijkheden. Er moet toch nog heel wat gebeuren om het te verfraaien en op hetzelfde niveau te brengen als dit van sommige andere Spaanse badsteden. We verbleven er als … More

“Comfortable holiday home with fabulous view”

Response from the owner Wonderful that you all enjoyed your holiday! I too love to join with all the locals watching the Easter parades. I'm glad that you enjoyed yourselves checking out the bars and restaurants - we enjoy having a beer in the chiringuitos on the beach, but then in the evenings it's always lovely to go into the old town, and if not have a full meal, do a 'tapas trail'! It sounds as if the birthday meal went off well up in Otivar - views to die for!

“Beautiful house, amazing setting, sea view. Definitely recommend to others.”
My husband and I have returned here as we had the best stay last time we came a year ago. The house is spacious, clean and had everything there we needed. We went to the pool each day and also the bea… More

Response from the owner Thank you for your kind comments and well done for spotting the dolphins this time - I obviously need to be a bit more watchful when I'm taking breakfast on the terrace! We look forward to your next booking with us.

Response from the owner De nada Shona! We hope that you can take another break from your hectic life in Madrid to get down to either this seaside villa or maybe our retreat in the hills, Bajo La Maroma! This is just outside the white village of Canillas de Aceituno, only an hour from the airport and less than 30mins from the coast.

Spent a weekend in this amazing gated community. We booked a flight to Malaga and rented a car at the airport. Very good connection to Almune-by-car. Arrived at night so couldn't see the breathta… More

We had an excellent break at La Rijana. Villa was perfect, had everything that we needed including a large wrap-around balcony over-looking the sea. Short drive from many secluded cove beaches along … More

Response from the owner Thanks Kirsty, so glad that you enjoyed your break. I agree entirely with you, the joys of this house and location are the 2-sided terrace (to catch or avoid the sun, depending on the weather and your preferance), the huge variety of beaches (with differing proximity, backdrops and facilities) and the town in its three categories, the historic cobbled atmospheric old town, the innumerable chiringuitos (beach bars) of the coast and the extra services and facilities provided by the newerparts of town. We certainly hope to see you again with returners' discount!! Sheila

“Gorgeous villa set in small community with stunning views of the mountains and the med”
We (a family of six adults) rented this villa for 10 days based on a recommendation from a friend. There was a lot of space both inside and on the balcony for the six of us. There was lots of storage … More
