Welcome to heaven!!..............

This villa is simply the most fantastic jewel in the Mijas pueblo's Crown.. it is an oasis of tranquility and beauty; you enter the property directly from the beautiful white streets of the beautiful mountain village of Mijas, you park your car in the covered garage .. and your breath is taken away by the vista of greenery and the magnificent unique swimming pool which is shaped as the rock beneath it ... the picture on this web site hardly does it justice - it is enchanting.... if you then walk to the enournmous main terrace, the views of the Mijas Costa, from the mountain ranges, over the golf courses and the twinkling lights of Fungie, & all the way to the shimmering sea - it will absolutely stay in your mind for ever forever!
We have visited this property every year for 10 years now - trust me, it is heaven.
The pictures show the villa very well - the property is a combination of original traditional features combined with fantasticly concieved additions - the glass roof over a bed and in the ensuite provide a simply beautify view of the mature and private grounds and the amazing night sky - it is magical. I laughed to myself when a previous review complained of no curtains - why would any one ever want to close out such a view?... by the way - the curtains were all there last week .. we use them only when we are outside - to maintain the lovely natural cool that the wonderful breezes provide, keeping them drawn during the day, with the patio doors open helps maintain a pleasant temperature for evenings!
The equipment in the house was fully functional - and very well used during our stay - from the BBQ to the Microwave or Expresso machine - to washing machine and dishwasher!
Each bedroom has it's ownbeautiful terrace - & a few extra ones situated in all aspects - shaded by fruiting grape vines, and sweet smelling flowers .... you can take your pick of lounging on the day bed in full sunlight, or at night under the stars - or snoozing on the shaded day bed on one of the lower terraces for a traditional afternoon siesta!
The Owners live next door, but with their own private entrance, and terraces, our privacy was complete - however - we did spring a leak and within a few hours the problem was taken care of - and the leak had stopped... the benifit of having an owner so handy to assist.
Only a few mins walk into the lovely village - with every ammenity!
I can not reccommend this villa well enough - we love it
