About this house rental

Escape to Casa Aloe, a haven nestled within minutes of the majestic Sierra Nevada National Park.
Experience breathtaking uninterrupted valley views, stretching to the coast.
The house offers seclusion, privacy and peace, yet with the authentic Andalusian village of Atalbeitar just steps away, very well preserved, and an experience! it's as if you returned to the moorish times…very romantic. It also has ancient donkey lanes that make it a car-free village, mysterious but safe to explore and a paradise for children's games.

THE HOUSE:
The house has been recently restored using traditional materials in original ways, with beauty and comfort in mind.
Chestnut beams, bedrock corners and many unique touches give an original charm.
We, Tom and Carmen ( the owners) are both artists, and have delighted every winter since 2004 restoring this jewel with all our love and care, and so we are very happy when people come to enjoy our work.

THINGS TO DO:

Hike breathtaking trails, discover hidden gems, and reconnect with nature's beauty.

Immerse in tranquility: Unwind in the luxurious steam room, after exploring the National Park's wonders.

Relax and rejuvenate: Enjoy al fresco dining with the beautiful valley beneath you, or enjoy barbecues in the terrace under the stars, so bright there’s an observatory 20 min. from the house, if you are interested on tour of the stars.


Perhaps cozy up by the fire and unwind with a book. (There’s a Smart Tv with Netflix also)

Or swim in the lovely pool by the garden patio, shady and plant-filled to escape the heat of the midday summer sun. In the colder months the pool is heated, wonderful after a good long walk.
It has a hydro-massage and swimming against the current system.

In the evenings explore the variety of restaurants and bars in our valley, where the tradition is to give a free Tapa with every drink, and where often you can catch an evening of local music.
The charming villages of Ferreirola, Mecina, Fondales, Portugos, Pitres and Busquistar are all within a scenic walk of 15/20 minutes. Ask us about their Fiesta dates if interested, Atalbeitar’s is the second weekend of August.

This place is a heaven for lovers of nature, walkers and artists.

Three generations of my family had the best holiday in Casa Aloe. The house is beautiful, homely and one of a kind. It is clean, spacious, comfortable and well equipped. We enjoyed family meals around the table on the terrace and, on the one night it rained, around the dining table in the house. It suited the whole range of our ages and the pool was an absolute hit. My favourite memory of the trip was hearing the excited calls from my grandchildren when they discovered the bedroom behind the mirror, they loved it. The whole process was easy from start to finish. I highly recommend this beautiful house!

Casita de cuento perdida en las montañas, así es como la llama mi niña de 3 años. De verdad, el sito es toda una experiencia que hay que vivir, está Inmaculadamente limpo gracias a Matilde y a su equipo, y es una preciosidad, parece la casa de Alicia en el país de las maravillas. Solo un apunte, no tiene aire acondicionado como pone en el anuncio, aunque sí tiene ventiladores en todos los cuartos y es suficiente. Volveremos!

Vi har nydt at bo i skønne Casa Aloe. Huset er helt specielt indrettet og har byens bedste udsigt.

We had a wonderful stay in Casa Aloe, an impressing rural house restored with so much love and so many beautiful details. We enjoyed the swimmingpool and the steamroom in the afternoon after a long walk in the mountains. There is an amazing view from the terrasse and from some of the rooms too. Atalbéitar is special because you don't have noisy bars og streets with motorbikes and cars. It is so quiet and the neighbours are very nice people. We had a good communication with Carmen and Tom, and Matilde was very kind to show us around and meet us. You have to watch out for your head when you walk around in the house as it is a very old house with small doors. The terrasse is not friendly for small children, but a wonderful place to enjoy a meal or relax. There is lots of good walking routes from Atalbéitar and in only 15-20 minutes of walking (5 minutes in car) you can reach a little village with bars, restaurants and supermarket. We would definitely love to come back.
