Serene, scenic and sea views are the first three things that come to mind when we think of Villa Cecilia Sol. The setting is a natural masterpiece, with the glistening Mediterranean Sea on one side and the verdant alpine Spanish countryside on the other. Built into the craggy hillside, Villa Cecilia Sol has been designed to make the most of the incredible panoramas. Stepping outside, you could spend hours staring out at the far-reaching views of rolling green hills, verdant vineyards, and fragrant olive groves. The large gloriette terrace is skirted by a short, Roman-style pillared fence, allowing you to take in every inch of the sublime scenes. Picturesque and peaceful, there are multiple alfresco dining areas where you can soak up the scenery during dinner. From the upper terrace, admire the far-reaching horizon during breakfast, then grill up an evening feast on the beautiful white stone barbecue fenced with intricate mosaic tiling and tuck in under the shaded pergola. The uniquely-shaped pool glistens under the Spanish sun, perfectly positioned so you can go for a dip and admire the landscape in pure bliss. Fancy a quick game or two? Battle it out at the table tennis set and billiards table sitting under the veranda.

The exteriors transport you back in time, with white stucco walls fringed with stone pillars and rustic mosaic stone. There’s some great character in the living room, it’s like a charming little jewellery box with its majestic grey stone fireplace, plump vintage red sofas, antique décor, and mahogany coffee table. Tuck under the exposed brick archway to the kitchen, featuring granite countertops that match perfectly with the wooden country-chic cabinetry and quaint tiled splashback. Serve up dinner in the charming dining area, with a rustic wooden six-person table and a sideboard displaying old-fashioned crockery and décor. Upstairs are two twin bedrooms, adorned with vibrant-coloured bedding that contrasts against the fresh white walls. The double bedroom is warm and homely, leading directly out onto a private balcony for direct access to a private balcony.

Located in the sought-after spot of Tamango Hill, you’re in the perfect position to explore the most beautiful corners of the vibrant Andalucía. Just a short drive away is the whitewashed town of Nerja, lined with golden-sand beaches and rocky coves. Wander down its popular cobbled stone streets to find traditional tapas bars, international restaurants, and a low-key nightlife scene. For a slice of culture, the beautiful village of Frigiliana is picture-worthy in its own right, with quaint white-painted houses stacked on its steep sloping streets. There’s even something for adventure-seekers – hike up the hill towering over the town for an unbelievable view over the historic streets and never-ending mountainscape.
