Perched on the hillside a short distance from Almuñécar and Salobreña, this lovely modern property enjoys panoramic views, offering a wonderful place to relax with family and friends and explore the sunny Andalucian coastline.
Recently completed, Villa Sofia is a contemporary whitewashed property with large picture windows in every bedroom that showcase this gorgeous region of Southern Spain. Arranged over two floors, the interior is bright and spacious, with stylish furniture and minimal tones that create a chic, contemporary aesthetic. On the lower ground floor, a large living area enjoys plenty of natural light, with generous openings that frame views of the sea whilst giving access to the terrace beyond. A herringbone-patterned floor runs throughout, whilst cement-rendered walls add a unique textured element. To one end, the kitchen is well equipped for preparing meals, with sleek surfaces and an impressive island counter, whilst to the center, a large dining table invites guests to enjoy meals whilst looking out over the sea. An inviting seating area sits at the far end, where a large sofa and two bright armchairs are perfectly positioned to enjoy the stunning views. Across the front of the room, several doorways lead out onto the terrace and can be left ajar to create a fluid living space and invite in the light, ocean breeze.
Outside, the south-facing terrace enjoys sun throughout the day, and various arrangements of seating invite you to relax and soak up the view. Cool off with a swim in the heated pool before reclining on a nearby lounger or take advantage of the warm evenings and make use of the barbecue, sharing pleasurable meals together as the sun drops below the horizon. There is also a lovely fruit garden, filled with several fruit trees that guests are welcome to pick from and create some delicious, sweet treats!
Entering from the street level, guests will find four bedrooms in total, each minimally decorated with a pared-back palette, whilst comfortable beds and thoughtful touches ensure a luxury experience. Each room features a lovely en-suite shower, whilst large windows frame the idyllic view, which guests can enjoy without having to get out of bed. There is one room with twin beds, and the other three bedrooms contain king-size doubles (and one has an extra sofa bed!).

Location:
Sitting on the hillside between Almuñécar and Salobreña, Villa Sofia is perfectly placed to explore Granada’s coastline, and a short drive will take you to the golden beaches and charming towns that line this stretch of the Mediterranean.
For those looking to spend the day beside the sea, Playa La Guardia is less than a 10-minute drive away. The gravel-sand beach stretches for just over 1km, and you can wander along the shoreline with your feet in the water or stop for a swim in the deep blue sea. There are several sports centers where you can hire a pedalo to paddle around the bay or visit one of the beachside kiosks to purchase an ice cream. To the far end of the beach, the town of Salobreña is a lovely, whitewashed village, surrounded by lush sugar cane plantations and distinguished by its Moorish castle. The Parque de la Fuente is a lovely place to rest, with well-kept gardens and tropical birds, and why not pause for a picnic, sharing produce bought from the local market? The town has a number of restaurants catering to all tastes, but a great place to earmark is El Peñon, which has been running since 1954. Found on the edge of the Rock of Salobreña, the popular local restaurant serves up a delicious menu of Mediterranean classic dishes of fresh fish and seafood, which you can enjoy whilst admiring views over the mountains and sea.
A 15-minute drive to the west brings you to Almuñécar. Originally a Phoenician colony, the town has a rich history, as well as a castle built by the Arabs on old Roman fortifications. Climb to the top of the castle to enjoy incredible coastal views or wander through the old town to discover the maze of cobblestone streets with its small boutiques and neighborhood tapas bars. The town’s most prominent beach is Playa San Cristobal, with a lively promenade and plenty of restaurant options, or head to Playa Velilla to enjoy an afternoon on the wide sand lined with palm trees.
Away from the coast, there is lots to explore, and about 50 minutes inland, the Junta de los Rios Natural Park is a wonderful place to spend the day. Numerous hiking trails invite you to discover the dramatic landscape, with spectacular waterfalls and magnificent mountain views, and you can stop off at one of the picturesque pools to refresh your toes in the clear turquoise water.
