Overview
This is an outstanding holiday property; the house is superb, and the garden is full of fruit trees.
Upon our first impression when walking into the property, we thought: “What a find!”.
The terrain and grounds are not challenging, which allows people of all ages to enjoy. Young toddlers should nevertheless be attended as the pool is not gated and the gardens are fairly extensive.
The long, 16m pool is excellent for those who like to practice some fitness laps - or would you rather fancy a poolside drink?
Expect a proper pool bar with fridge space and a beer tap. Don´t forget to order your barrel!
It is surely a place to unwind, relax and be inspired, although active guests will also have their fair share of entertainment.
With so much to do within the property itself, add the possibility of local walks from your doorstep, or climbing up the imposing 3,000-metre-high massif of Sierra Nevada, starting at just a short drive away from the house.
If you are not that adventurous, easier local walks also abound.
Regarding the holiday home itself, it is hard to fault.
With everything kept to very high standards, it is a villa to suit demanding clients who do not wish to spare comfort and who value great facilities, cooking conveniences and opportunities for everyone to have fun during their holidays.
All bedrooms are nicely prepared and decorated to make you feel at home. Those on the ground floor enjoy direct access to the gardens, while the ones on the first floor have terraces and larger bathrooms with both bathtubs and walk-in showers.
Perhaps the bedroom in the basement is at a relative disadvantage, being on a lower floor, as it doesn't have a window, so it doesn't receive the natural light the other ones get. But it does benefit from some independence to the rest, having direct access to the fitness room next door, a WC, a shower and even its own kitchenette.
The modern kitchen, with its distinctive, high-quality Smeg appliances, includes a breakfast island, loads of fridge space, plenty of varying tableware and even an adjoining room which serves as both a walk-in pantry and a utility room.
Having the furnished porch area next to the kitchen is also a plus for easy access during outdoor meals, which only emphasizes that the design of it all is very well thought out for practicality.
Come and enjoy this villa at any time of the year, no matter the season.
The house is nicely cooled down during hot summer days with air-conditioning, while for colder months, you can benefit from pleasant, under-floor heating.
The outside space maintains its amazing atmosphere year-round as well. Dark green leaves later replace bright summer greens with orange tints from winter´s fruit. Be sure to pick an orange during your stroll and try its organic taste...
But if you think this property is a delight at the daytime, you will be surprised to see the gardens become ever more vibrant at night. There is something in the way the property is illuminated, with the darkened sky and the peace and quiet in the background, making it truly dreamy.
Arriving at this place for the first time, you would never guess the whole different world that lies inside. Open the doors, let yourself in and indulge.
And although the finca gets all the attention, the unique setting should not go amiss: a semitropical valley between the Mediterranean Sea and the snowy mountains of Sierra Nevada, coated white for most of the year.
The magic of Granada is 30 minutes away, as are the unspoilt beaches of the Tropical Coast, heading in opposite directions.
Location
Village in fertile valley located between the high massif of Sierra Nevada and the Tropical Coast. This is the Lecrin Valley region.
In the village of Melegis (only 1 bar / restaurant). You can normally park just opposite the house.

YOUR REVIEWS
We were a three generational family holiday and we're more than delighted with our choice. Internally.the house was spacious and well equipped and it was an added bonus having the well stocked 'basics' larder! Plenty of room for our party of nine. Boys used the gym! The selling point of this property is of course the garden and pool area. We spent most of our time here using the barbecue and bar mist evenings. The three little girls were never out of the water and it was no hardship watching them all have such fun from the lovely seating area! We enjoyed pizzas one evening from the lovely pizza outlet and another excellent dinner at a local restaurant within an easy walk. All in all one of our best holidays."
+ Read moreThis was an absolutley perfect house that met our needs. The accommodation was as described and the outside space was better than we had hoped."
+ Read moreExcellent well equipped house in a beautiful valley. Walking distance to a good restaurant and bar, 2 bakeries and a pizza takeaway. Best pool we’ve ever had in a holiday house, the gardens and outdoor kitchen were well used."
+ Read moreThis property is fantastic. We had a really fun week here! We barely spent any time inside the house, just the kitchen and the pool/bar/outdoor kitchen area. I would say that the property is lacking some things, such as good knives, better cups for the outside area (plastic wine glasses, beer cups etc), BBQ utensils. A great place for friends to stay for a week!"
+ Read moreRustical Travel provides a good service. Property ref AP60 promises a lot but has various problems which need to be dealt with."
+ Read moreWe loved the Villa which was well equipped and very comfortable however the outside space really was the jewel in the crown. We had such a relaxing break and stayed in far more than we had imagined as the space met all our needs. Absolutely gorgeous!"
+ Read moreOur second visit to this delightful house. The facilities are fantastic - lovely pool, great bbq and outdoor kitchen. A bit sad to see the top gardens blocked off and no longer part of the property. Weather was beautiful and we spent most of every day outside. A perfect spot to celebrate one of my boys getting engaged - they met in Granada so it made sense for him to propose there."
+ Read moreLovely villa and beautiful grounds. We really enjoyed the stay however the AC was not really working in the top bedrooms, especially the master bedroom, nevertheless it was a spacious and comfortable villa. We all had a great time, swimming in the gorgeous pool and generally hanging out."
Rustical Update
The property owners confirmed by email on October 2022 that the AC on top floor was fixed (there was a fault with the thermostat)-
Beautiful property with everything you could wish for and very helpful agents who could help out with all requests."
+ Read moreBeautiful villa and gardens, with a fantastic outdoor kitchen. We loved the pool, the fruit trees and the beer on tap! The kitchen was brilliantly stocked, but we were happy to be cooked paella one night by the local chef. The nearest restaurant is just a few minutes walk away and has lovely views of the valley. Rustical was very helpful with changing our booking due to Covid."
+ Read moreBooking service was very professional and any queries answered promptly."
+ Read moreThe villa is gorgeous, spacious, extremely well equipped and garden is beautiful (huge). We have never seen so many different types of crockery and kitchen tools. The number of Fridges in the villa and in the outside areas is impressive, I think we found 6 or 7. The outside cooking areas are fabulous and the pool great. The setting is stunning and we loved walking in the foothills of the mountains and visiting the villages. The only thing missing was being shown around when we arrived as it took a while to locate the correct villa and work out how the appliances etc worked. Not a major issue but it worked have been helpful to be met on arrival and shown how it all works. Overall this is a fabulous large villa and the location is stunning."
+ Read moreWe loved the property. the extensive grounds were simply amazing. picking lemons and vegetables from the garden was an added bonus. the whole place was extra special. my boys were delighted and thoroughly enjoyed the pool and paddle court as well as the supreme outdoor cooking facilities. the only thing it lacks is a house book with instructions and guidance notes. It took us a while to figure out some of the equipment and lighting. Even the gardener struggled with one set of fairy lights. But once, found, the effect was magical!"
+ Read moreThe property was absolutely lovely, and suited our party of four adults and six children ideally. There was so much to do within the property that we only left a few times, and otherwise stayed put to enjoy the beautiful grounds, pool and paddle tennis court."
+ Read moreVery nice. Everything you need is available."
