Villa rentals in Mijas hills, Costa del Sol, Spain. Book direct with the owner.

Nuestro Castillo is a beautifully traditional & stylish Spanish villa in Mijas (Costa del Sol), available for rent all year round. It will accommodate up to 10 people and has additional baby facilities. Situated in the scenic Mijas hills, it is 2km from Mijas town centre and only 20 minutes drive from Malaga airport. Marbella and Puerto Banus take about 30 minutes by car & you will find plenty of good beaches within a 15-minute drive. The luxurious 5 bedroom accommodation is divided between two storeys.

Each floor is self-contained with air-conditioning, own kitchen, bathroom (2 bathrooms /1 shower room) and one dinning room and two spacious living areas including a second dinning room table. This villa is ideal for two families wanting the option to spend time apart, rather than living in each others pockets. The villa has been cleverly designed for security and privacy around the pool, garden and BBQ areas, whilst retaining panoramic views of the Mijas Mountain, Fuengirola and the Mediterranean sea from the upper level veranda /living area. On a clear day you will be able to see Morocco and on clear nights you can experience the sight of the romantic silvery reflections of the moon on the Mediterranean sea.

If you think you will need to get bottled water on holiday here 'don't bother'. The water supply to the house comes from the Mijas mountains and is so pure that a company in Mijas town actually makes money from bottling it.

Designed by Pepe Martin (well known for his unusual designs), the villa has a number of unusual features. One of these is internal walls made of thermal blocks. This keeps the house unusually cool during the hottest months of the years. Features often remarked on by customers, are the timber roof beams in all living areas, the open circular copper fire place (main living area), Portuguese marble floors and the remote controlled garden lighting for those of you interested in gadgets.

The villa has been recently upgraded throughout with new furniture /kitchen equipment and garden furniture.

Mijas - Mijas municipality has a surprisingly large population (42,283 people) and includes a number of coastal developments - Calahonda, Riviera del Sol, Sitio de Calahonda, Cala de Mijas... The municipality covers some 148 square kilometres, including twelve kilometres of some of the best coves and beaches on the Costa del Sol. Mijas is widely acknowledged to be one of the most attractive mountain ‘pueblos’ (village) in the south of Spain, having spectacular views over the Costa del Sol. There are many designated viewing points, and many wonderful views (please email info@casamijas.com for website URL containing pictures of views) which can be had from some of the excellent restaurants and cafes in the area. As an Andalusian 'white village' Mijas has managed to conserve its essentially Arabic mediaeval appearance. This gives Mijas a slightly exotic feel that many visitors find hard to explain.

Sports - There are 33 golf courses on the Costa Del Sol, several of which are within half an hour's drive of Neustro Castillo. The Law Hoad Tennis Club is only 10 minutes walk from the villa. Horse riding, go karting and Mijas Aqua Park are all within 10 minutes drive. The beautiful ski resort of the Sierra Nevada is only 2 hours drive away.
