Overview
Nestled in the picturesque Mediterranean valley of La Almuña near Gaucin village, this traditional Andalucian villa promises a serene escape.
As you drive through the glorious countryside, the sight of the property and its rolling gardens is as enchanting in person as it appears in photos.
Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by a lush, tropical landscape. On clear days, you can enjoy breathtaking views of Gibraltar, the Mediterranean Sea, and even Africa, making it a truly exceptional location.
This once-dated villa has been thoughtfully refurbished by its new owners. They have maintained its traditional charm while updating it to modern standards, creating a country home that's easy to fall in love with.
Outdoor Living at Its Best
The villa's gardens and terraces are simply irresistible. The west-facing pool, over 10 meters long and irregularly shaped, perfectly integrates into the surroundings. It provides a wonderful setting for lazy afternoons and memorable sunsets, with plenty of sun loungers for relaxation.
You can choose your favourite spot throughout the day, enjoying the peaceful sounds of nature.
Privacy is paramount here. Secluded and surrounded by a Mediterranean forest, the villa offers nearly 360-degree views that are both stunning and serene.
Accommodations and Amenities
The villa comfortably accommodates up to 8 people in its four bedrooms, with the option to sleep 10 thanks to a fifth, independent family bedroom in the garden. The outdoor seating is best suited for 8 people, though it can accommodate 10, making it ideal for two families. Please note that small children will require supervision due to the layout and unfenced pool.
A notable feature is the shared tennis court, privately owned by several villa owners in the valley. It’s about a 15-minute walk or a very short drive away, and booking is required as it is a shared facility.
Exploring the Surroundings
The expanse of evergreen and cork oaks right outside the door offers plenty of exploration opportunities for those who enjoy walking. History enthusiasts will love visiting the nearby town of Gaucin, once a bandit hideout.
If you can tear yourself away from the villa, the white-capped wilderness of the Atlantic beaches is less than an hour away. Closer still is Sabinillas on the Mediterranean, where you can enjoy fresh fish lunches and seaside charm.
Golf lovers would like to know that there are some exceptional golf courses on the road to Sotogrande. A great selection is within one hour's drive.
This villa in Andalucia perfectly blends traditional style and modern comfort. It offers a tranquil retreat with plenty of amenities and stunning views, making it ideal for those seeking a peaceful holiday surrounded by nature.
Location
The early folds of the southern Ronda mountains overlook the Bay of Gibraltar and Africa, rolling wooded hills and valleys that end at the Mediterranean Sea.
It is in a large private finca and is accessible by an easy 1.7 km rural track from the Gaucin to San Pablo villages.

YOUR REVIEWS
I would recommend this villa and also Rustical travel who were excellent in their work. The house was fantastic we were 9 people who had a great two weeks of tennis BBQ's swimming and hiking. Great people and a great house."
+ Read moreWhat a treat! We had a wonderful and truly relaxing week at this stunning villa. Nestled in the Spanish countryside we spent the days relaxing by the large pool and in the evening enjoying a few drinks overlooking the stunning views from thelarge balcony. A visit to Gaucin is a must - from the local shops to some amazing restaurants. The paella delivered by the local chef was a highlight. Special mention to Hughie who gave us all the local knowledge and tips. Would highly recommend - wewill be back!
+ Read moreWe were just two couples enjoying one of the prettiest and most idyllic spots in the hills near Gaucin, and only 90 minutes from the airport ! This little gem has all you want and more ; 5 double bedrooms and 5 bathrooms , a large family inside sitting area , a fantastic kitchen with dining area leading to an extensive terrace.The garden and flower landscaping is delightful with well thought out beds , plants and a great little herb garden ! The pool is just perfect …. a sweet relief from the heat of the day ! Our favourite thing to do was sitting outside on the terrace off the Master Bedroom – why? (apart from enjoying a glass of chilled wine) ….to see the Starry Starry night !
+ Read moreMy partner and I recently stayed at Los Cristales, and we couldn’t have been more delighted with our experience. We loved the villa’s serene ambiance and stunning mountains views. The location was perfect, secluded enough for privacy yet close enough to local attractions.The villa itself was beautifully maintained, with spacious, comfortable rooms and thoughtful amenities.The attention to detail in the decor added a touch of elegance, making us feel both at home and pampered.And we particularly loved relaxing by the large pool and the lush gardens.Overall, Los Cristales is the perfect retreat for couples looking to unwind and enjoy a peaceful, luxurious escape. We highly recommend it and are already looking forward to our next visit.
