Spacious villa with great views, peacefully situated between sea and mountains

The Colina Tropical is a quietly located villa with large terraces and a private pool. Here you can enjoy a fantastic view of the "Valle Tropical" - the "Tropical Valley"-and the surrounding mountains. The house is spacious and has a large lounge with a panoramic view, three bedrooms and three bathrooms. The Colina Tropical is the perfect place to relax, whether with you are family, friends or as a couple.

(Please read our advices at the bottom of this description). Lovers of diversity will love the place: In just 25 minutesby car you reach the town Almuñécar. There you will find beautiful beaches and some very good restaurants offering local specialties, as well as shopping centres and sight-seeing. You can, for example, visit some well-preserved aqueducts and the ruins of the Romans and Phoenicians.

If you love to cook and eat together, you can rejoice: The kitchen is fully equipped. A stove with oven and a refrigerator with freezer are a included. Furthermore you can find dishwasher, microwave, blender and much more. If you eat in the salon, you'll have a great view of the surrounding countryside through the large windows. But of course the terraces invite to relax. How about a leisurely breakfast in the morning sun on the south-eastern terrace or a barbeque evening on the north-western terrace, where you can see the sun go down behind the mountains in the evening?

For families the Colina Tropical is particularly well equipped. Lots of toys, a stroller and even a cot are available. The pool has a child proof lock, so you can really relax.

The three rooms can be used flexibly: Whether alone, as a couple or multiple people. For example, with children, each room can be switched in accordance with ease. Furthermore the house and the surrounding paths are built completely barrier-free and equipped accordingly. Even an electric wheelchair is available if needed in order to explore the area.

If you are up and running, it will certainly not be boring. You can for example start your hiking tour right outside the front door! And the Nerja Caves and the popular city of Granada are popular destinations for a day trip. From Granada it is only a short hop to the Sierra Nevada, where you can go mountain climbing or even skiing during winter season. In General the Colina Tropical is a good starting point for sporting activities such as mountain biking and paragliding or water sports like diving, kayaking and sailing. At the end of an adventurous day, you may relax again at the fireplace, or if you prefer the satellite TV that is available.

Whether relaxation, active vacation or the healthy mix - the Colina Tropical is the perfect holiday home on the Costa Tropical.

Advice: Since Andalusia is quite hilly, it is important to rent a car like Citroën Berlingo, Renault Kangoo or Fiat Panda as they are a little higher from the ground and (at least 20 cm), therefore, suited to this type of terrain. That will open the door to allow you to discover the delights of the landscape around Colina Tropical.

Haven of Peace and Tranquility
The villa is approx 2km along a mountain single track road which at first was a little daunting but we soon got used to it. Lovely villa with all facilities provided. Alexandra couldn't have been more helpful and we really appreciated her assistance when required. Large property with lovely pool and incredible views. The bbq area was fantastic, with the sun on the property all day long. Kitchen very well stocked, lovely comfy beds. Plenty of toys/games provided. Brilliant wi-fi to keep 2 young boys happy. Would definitely return - thank you Alexandra and family.

Special spot in the hills
We were lucky enough to spend the month of February at Colina Tropical, and every day we congratulated each other for choosing it as our lodging. It was perfect for every age guest we had, ages 4 months to 76 years. Our family of four was there all month, with extended family members joining us for 1-2 weeks along the way. The house was spacious for us all, even when we were seven people in total. Even the outdoor space allows for quiet moments on one's own. We rented a large car and it worked very well for our guests to park at the bottom of the hill and drive up with us to reduce traffic on the narrow driveway. Alexandra and Piotr are thoughtful and kind hosts, always ready to answer questions when needed. They provided us with a crib, changing table, baby toys, and a stroller. The house is an easy drive to Málaga, Granada, and the Alpujarras, and we enjoyed quick trips into Almuñécar almost every day. Even with an active six year old and a pool closed for the winter, it was easy to spend a day relaxing on top of the hill. The house has stacks of games, and trees dripping with oranges, kumquats, and lemons (not to mention the avocados from the farmer downhill). Stargazing, sunrises and especially sunsets are sources of daily beauty, and we are already trying to figure out when our next visit to Colina Tropical will be.

Un maravilloso rincón cerca del cielo
We had an amazing time at this house. The house and the views of the countryside were incredible. Alexandra was so lovely and so helpful. She collected us from the town to show us the way. We were able to disconnect and enjoy the lovely countryside and the amazing fruit trees at the property. We have a 9 month old baby and the house was very set up for babies so we didn’t need to bring a cot or a high chair which was great. We loved our time there and would definitely go back!

A little piece of heaven!
Alexandra is friendly and helpful and the villa is amazing in every way. Beautifully designed it sits high on a hill overlooking the valley below. The road up is steep but worth the climb and has incredible views of the two villages below . We came to escape the English winter and found somewhere we would return to over and over. Thank you Alexandra for your hospitality and hiring us your beautiful villa

Traumhaft auch für Menschen mit Rollstuhl
Es war tatsächlich Traumhaft. Wir fanden ein Haus vor, dass viel Platz für alle bot. Ein Ort zum erholen und entspannen. Die Gastgeber:innen waren sehr zuvorkommend. So ist u.a. auch das Haus auf Rollstuhlfahrer:innen angepasst worden. So konnte sich eine junge Mitreisende einen dort zur Verfügung gestellten elektrischen Rollstuhl nutzen. Ein fest installierte Lifter am Pool ermöglichte die entsprechende Nutzung. Mit dem Auto ist man in ca. 20 Minuten am Meer. Wir haben uns richtig wohl gefühlt; dafür ein großes Danke!

Casa perfecta para relajarse y desconectar.
No hemos echado nada en falta, tiene prácticamente de todo y la casa no puede estar más limpia. Las vistas son espectaculares. Y el trato de Alexandre y Piot no pudo ser mejor, un 10 para ellos. Es el lugar perfecto para desconectar, pero hay que tener muy presente que no se puede llegar sin un coche alto (tipo 4x4 o SUB con bajos altos). Gracias Alexandre y Piot por subirnos y bajarnos. Gracias por todo, sois los mejores anfitriones.

15 jours au paradis
Alors je vais essayé de faire bref ....:) Nous avons séjourné 15 jours au mois d'août en famille dans cette superbe propriété avec vue sur le cadre idylique des collines avoisinantes et la quiétude des lieux.Aménagement de la villa très bien pensé,propreté irréprochable,décoration intérieur très jolies et de bon goût,équipements et fournitures tout simplement au top.Nous avons rarement vu une cuisine aussi bien achalandée afin de vous faciliter au maximum nos séances culinaires en vacances !!Mais au delà de toutes ces choses matérielles,je voulais surtout souligner la gentillesse et la disponibilité des propriétaires.Alexandra pour notre part,qui est pleine de bons conseils pour les visites et autres et également d'attentions pour ces hôtes.Nous sommes arrivés un samedi vers 00h30 et Alexandra nous avait déjà proposé d'aller nous faire quelques petites courses pour le lendemain au besoin,étant donné que les magasins étaient fermés et elle nous attendait à Jete pour nous escorter jusqu'à la villa.Et au fil du séjour,nous avons reçu quelques produits issus de leurs plantation,que demander de mieux !!!Bref,même si le sentier qui accède à la villa peut être légèrement cahotique pour certaines personnes,ne vous arrétez pas à ce détails,la quiétude est à ce prix, ( Tenez en compte simplement lors de la location de votre voiture,nous l'avons fait avec un fiat Punto 1.2 qui a peiné mais y est arrivée ha ha ha ) et n'hésitez pas à vous rendre dans ce petit coin de paradis.Nous de notre côté nous y retournerons très certainement !!!!

Wonderful house with everything
We (4 generations, from 1 to 84 years old) stayed one week in this wonderful house in the mountains above Jete. The house is very well equipped and very well suited for travelling with small Children. Wonderful views and lots of places around the house to relax. The hosts are very helpful and service-minded and made our stay perfect. A perfect hideaway, we miss already the sun and warmth of the place, we felt like home.
