Unique view of the sea and mountains
This villa is unique due to its location on top of a hill with a breathtaking 360° view. Both from the bedrooms and living area, as well as from the spacious covered terrace you can enjoy the beautiful views that the sun-drenched Mediterranean Sea and the majestic peaks of the Sierra Almijara offer. The villa is surrounded by gardens with flowering plants, fruit trees, olive trees and almond trees, a slightly heated swimming pool, a warm relaxation pool and above all an oasis of peace.
Magnificent private villa
The villa from 2003 was renovated in 2021 and is fully equipped. The ground floor (actually the middle floor) has 2 bedrooms, each with a separate bathroom with toilet, a spacious living room with open kitchen, a garden, a renovated heated swimming pool, a relaxation pool and a spacious terrace. The upper floor contains a bedroom, a bathroom and a spacious terrace. The lower floor (below the ground floor, but very open due to the slope), also with sea view, contains 3 bedrooms with 3 bathrooms, a small garden and a terrace.
Comfortable climate
Torrox is known for “the best climate in Europe”: slightly cooler in the summer and slightly warmer in the winter than the rest of southern Spain. When the mercury does rise, Villa Alegre remains pleasantly cool thanks to the covered terrace, the sliding windows, the swimming pool, and the cooling air conditioning in every room. In the few cooler months, it remains pleasant to stay here thanks to the tireless Spanish sun and the heating in every room.

Living in an Andalusian atmosphere
In the living room on the middle floor, the sofas invite you to watch the news from your home country or relax with your favorite music. Contacting home or watching movies via the internet is no problem, even in this quiet part of Spain, thanks to the free Wi-Fi and the Smart TV. The LCD TV with satellite receiver gives access to more than 400 channels. The rustic decor gives the whole something authentic Andalusian.
Siesta at the pool
The swimming pool (28 m²) is located on the south-west side, so you can enjoy the sun until after 9 pm in the summer months. There is a relaxation pool with a pleasant temperature of 35 degrees and a larger pool that is also slightly heated, so that the water temperature is pleasant from March to November (not available from December to April). A part of the large pool is shallow and can serve as a fun play area for the children. There are enough sun loungers and parasols around the pool to enjoy your well-deserved siesta in peace.
Entertainment for adults
The house and its surroundings invite you to spend your days in and around the house. A game of petanque, a board game, a day at the pool, a day of cooking, ... In the wide area you can relax while horse riding, golf, cycling, enjoy the beach or a walk on the dike and you can soak up the culture in the picturesque villages and vibrant cities. From December to March you can even be on your skis in the largest ski area in Spain: the Sierra Nevada.
Fun for the children
The children have fun at the pool and in the gardens around the house. They can discover toys such as water toys, giant mikado, play blocks, board games, etc. in the cupboards. In the area they can enjoy themselves on the beach, on the playgrounds in Torrox Costa, at the child-friendly fountains on the square of Torrox Pueblo, etc. ...

Beautiful starry sky

In the heart of Andalusian culture
In addition to Spanish villages nearby, and the city of Nerja, Malaga is more than worth a visit. The beautiful new port site and extremely pleasant car-free city center make Malaga the "Barcelona of Southern Spain". Seville, the capital of Andalusia, shows you the highlights of Andalusian culture. And the Alhambra in Granada is also an absolute must for culture lovers. Cordoba with its Mezquita is certainly also worth a visit. Villa Alegre offers you the ideal base to admire the Andalusian culture.

In high season you will find the typical pleasant bustle of playing children, walking tourists, restaurants with sunny terraces, ...
No-worry service
You do not have to worry about bed linen, pool towels, bath towels and kitchen linen, everything is available.
How to get there?
Numerous companies (Ryanair, Vueling, SN Brussels Airlines, Tuifly, Transavia, ...) fly to Malaga. Tip 1: If you cannot avoid the school holidays, depart from airports within driving distance in regions or countries that do not have school holidays at that time (for Belgians Eindhoven, for Dutch people Ostend or Brussels). At the airport you can easily take a rental car (suggestions: Record Go, Goldcar, OK Mobility are all perfectly trustworthy). Tip 2: when booking and picking up the car online, don't let them push you to take out extra insurance for the car if you don't really want it. The road from the airport to Villa Alegre takes about 50 minutes. The last part of the road goes into the mountains and winds to the top of the hill. You can reach it perfectly with a normal passenger car, but take into account a steep mountain road at the end.
