The villa has the added bonus of a solar heated pool, temperatures obviously vary with the amount of hours of sun each day. All the bedrooms have ceiling fans to keep you cool in summer. Gas central heating/fire provided with fixed costs if required.It is called El Jardin Secreto-The Secret Garden-because of the beautiful gardens which surround the whole villa. There is a huge palm tree ,which is a landmark in the area. You are able to pick your own lemons,pomegranates, oranges and walnuts from the trees there and the frangipani scent is wonderful. Lavender and bougainvillea grow around the pool and the rubber tree provides shade for the hammock and a novel. It is a great place for a holiday with family and friends and children are safe in the garden. The villa has been renovated recently and everything has been chosen with care to add interest as well as comfort.It has a flat screen TV and a DVD player. HiFi and ipod dock. Parking is available for several cars and is in the grounds.

A large private pool is outside in the patio area. It measures approx 10 x 5 metres and has steps into it at one end. The deepest part is 2 metres.

The town of Nerja is packed with small shops which provide a never-ending feast for the eyes for all sorts of keen shoppers, selling everything from fresh fish to ballgowns, if they don't keep you occupied enough then the many bars and restaurants will draw you in, especially for the famous tradition of Tapas-a small delicacy served free with your beer or wine. Down on the famous Burriana beach there is usually a huge Paella being cooked at Ayos and this eating experience is a must with a glass of Tinto Verano [red wine and lemonade translated as The Red of Summer]

Banks and supermarkets are easily accessible in the town of Nerja and the choice is good.There is an excellent supermarket in easy walking distance of the villa in case you need to stock up for all your outdoor barbecues you will be having under the stars!
The drive along the coast road is beautiful and there are many smaller beaches along here to find and explore. Walking in the area is also excellent and the local tourist office in the town can provide information.
A favourite day out of ours is to put a picnic in the car and swimming gear and simply drive along the old coast road,choosing one of the many beaches and then stopping to explore for a swim and some lunch.
