This finca’s crowning achievement might be the fabulous outdoor space – and the views on offer from it – but that doesn’t take away from the beautiful blend of rustic charm and more modern elements.

Start your day on the balcony where you can enjoy a cup of coffee just after sunrise. Bask in the tranquillity as you admire ocean views flanked by rolling hills and the mountains of the Andalusian region. When you’ve found your peace, return inside to take on breakfast duties together.

Spend days poolside or on the balcony where you can enjoy wine and nibbles before firing up the barbecue for a Mediterranean feast. Though the beach is a little farther to drive to, it’s worth the more rural location and it also places you in closer proximity to Sierras de Tejeda, Almijara y Alhama Natural Park where you can spot waterfalls and admire the sweeping views as you hike one of the many trails.

Back home, enjoy the sunset with a drink in the hot tub, and stay outside, making yourself comfortable in any of the seating areas, to chat under the sparkling night sky.
