About this property

The villa is situated on the edge of the quaint village of Archez and is accessed via a concrete driveway through its own private gated entrance.

The entrance to the villa leads from the fully glazed terrace with table and chairs to enjoy dining in all seasons into the spacious air conditioned open plan lounge which has a light and airy traditional Spanish feel with a contemporary flat screen television and log burner for cosy winter evenings. This leads to the fully fitted kitchen with washing machine, fridge freezer, dishwasher, gas job and electric cooker and has French doors to the terrace and pool with further areas for outdoor dining and enjoying the sun and views over the mountains. Off the lounge is the first double bedroom with kingsize bed. Also off the lounge is the second bedroom with twin beds. The bathroom comprising of bath with shower over, wash basin, bidet and w.c. is also on the ground floor. Steps from the lounge lead up through a door to the mezzanine master double bedroom which has a dressing area and en-suite wet room.

Beautiful villa and location
What a stunning property! The views, the pool, the villa itself were all just stunning and we settled in right away. The pictures don’t do it justice and it’s bigger than the description makes out! The kitchen was well equipped and the bedrooms all a decent size .with much needed air conditioning (it hit 37c when we were there!) The little town of Árchez is so pretty and a short walk from the villa and we ate in two of the restaurants there and both were fabulous. (The vegan one was our fave ...surprising as we are all carnivores but the food was so tasty) My 9 and 7 year old loved the pool and the WiFi was strong (important for kids nowadays!!) and a short drive to Algarrobo meant we had a great beach and good supermarkets to hand. The market at Algarrobo (Saturday 9-1pm towards the Aldi) was lovely and we cane away with lots of spices and Spanish pottery! Within a short drive from the villa there is torre del mar which we absolutely loved! Sandy beaches and lovely restaurants galore. Nerja is also easily accessible but we were less keen as it was very busy. The shopping centre is brilliant (el ingenio) and nearby and also perfect for a day escaping the sun and hidin gin the air con! The owners were so helpful as was Tony who answered our questions and made check in so easy. Competa is a cute village a few mins drive from the villa and also offered some fab food and little shops. They had a fair there when we were there so it had a lovely atmosphere. The mountain roads are pretty scary driving initially (wrong side of the car and wrong side of the road for us ) and I recommend car sickness medicine for the kids as we had to pull over a couple of times as the roads are so windy but it worth it for the vista the villa offers and the utter tranquility! We would defo come back to stay as it was a very relaxing beak for us all ! Thank you for having us x

Great villa in Archez
This villa is amazing, would recommend it to anyone, everything you could possibly want or need. The photos don't do it justice and the views are stunning. You need a car if you want to travel away from the villa but the setting is perfect for a quiet, relaxing getaway with lovely local restaurants. Would definitely return.

Stunning location, so peaceful
A lovely house, very airy and spacious. Pool was gorgeous with stunning views from the pool area. A lovely breeze kept temperatures comfortable. Visited Competa most days for grocery shopping, coffee and a wander round. Highly recommended.

Beautiful villa with amazing views.
Had a very peaceful break in this lovely home. Archez is small and hilly, but had everything we needed. I would say you really need a car to enjoy this area fully.

Why they chose this property

The villa is situated on the edge of a typically Spanish village which has all the amenities needed for a relaxing and peaceful holiday. The local taxi service means that it is not even necessary to hire a car, as here it is a pleasure to stroll to either village to take advantage of the delicious food and wine on offer.

What makes this property unique

Buena Vista lives up to its name with beautiful views which can be appreciated from the various terraces . The close proximity of The National Park ensures you can take advantage of a variety of walks and appreciate the landscape. Competa is a short drive away with even more choice of shops, restaurants and bars and for those looking for 'retail therapy' the shopping centre of El Engenio is about 20 minutes drive as are the beautiful beaches of the region.
