About this villa rental
Casa La Higuera nestles on the hillside on the edge of the beautiful mountain village of Canillas de Albaida and the national park of Sierra de Almijara, less than an hour’s drive from Malaga airport. It's a 5 minute drive (20 min walk) to Competa and only 20 minutes drive to the local beaches.
This attractive, well-equipped villa has unsurpassed views of the sea and surrounding hills yet is within easy walking distance of supermarkets and restaurants.
Casa La Higuera offers 3 double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and a private swimming pool.
The main villa houses the master bedroom and a twin bedroom. Both with ceiling fans and fitted wardrobes with views over the countryside.
The family shower room has been recently refurbished with crisp white tiles and modern fittings.
The house then is open planned with the lounge, kitchen and dining area flowing in a light and airy room.
The main house has a newly fitted modern kitchen with fridge-freezer, microwave, oven, gas hob, dishwasher and wine cooler.
The lounge has a TV and free wi-fi. A log burning for the cooler months.
The double (twin) bedroom and en-suite is in a separate casita a few steps behind the main house, with its own small terrace, perfect for visitors seeking privacy or grandparents wishing to escape for some peace and quiet.
Outside, the property has its own private 8mx4m pool and plenty of shaded seating areas for relaxing and dining. The gardens are mature and private with gated access. The views from the villa are stunning.
There is parking for 2 vehicles.
The local village, Canillas de Albaida is just a few minutes walk from the villa, with access to several bars and restaurants and a few small local supermarkets for your essentials. The larger village of Competa is just five minutes drive or 20 minutes walk

Nice villa, a short but very steep walk to the village. Plenty outside space. Well equipped kitchen. Beds are comfortable and showers are good. Great views. Would recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Casa La Higuera, the house itself is excellent with everything we needed, the third member of our party ( a friend ) stayed in the Casita, her only complaint was that she thought that a small fridge in the Casita would have been useful as it would have allowed her to keep water for drinking cool over night. The outside space is good, we dine outside the whole of our stay, however the outside furniture is rather tired and could do with replacing, also we were unable to use the sun umbrellas as there are no bases. Lastly although only one of our party used the pool we did feel that a clean and some maintenance would have been beneficial. The road access to the house is a bit daunting first time but after two or three journeys was not a problem and to be able to walk to Canillas de Albaida via the shortcut is a big bonus as it meant we only needed to use the car for longer journeys. Taking everything into consideration I must reiterate that we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Casa La Higuera.

We have just come back from a lovely week. The villa is situated in a beautiful location overlooking the mountains. The road surfaces are in good condition, but I wasn't prepared for how twisty turny and at times, steep, the roads were.
The villa had everything. Lots of outside seating and the kitchen was well stocked. The pool was a lovely way to cool down in the very hot sun we expereienced.
We managed to keep the house cool but without Aircon, it was extreamly hot at night even with the celing fans, but we did go in mid August!!!!
The local town of Canillas de Albaida was lovely. It was a 5min stroll (up the hill) where we had two fantastic meals. One in the restaurant at the top of hill (the first on you get to walking from the villa) and the second one was further down the hill. All the staff were so lovely and the food was amazing and great value.
We vistied Competa a few times. This is around a 6min drive down the mountain. Easy to find parking. We had lunch in the main square and a couple of times for dinner, which again were amazing.
El Pilon (which was my fav) and restaurante El pampano. Both with more stunning views.
Vikki was really helpful and gave us great directions to the house. She was on hand if as and when we needed her. I had mentioned that the TV wasn't working, which on holiday isn't normally an issue, but my kids were keen to watch the olympics... other than that, it was a perfect place to relax.
