Located in an area of luxury estates in "The Campo", it is a leisurely stroll or brief drive to the international and cosmopolitan ‘Village’ of Cómpeta. The secluded VILLA ARBOLEDO (“House in the Trees”) is your gated, completely private, vacation estate for playful relaxation. Sunbathe on the fully private pool terrace, and enjoy cocktails overlooking the hills and blue water Mediterranean Sea vi
ew. Please note, this villa is registered with the Junta de Andalusia and meets all the requirements for letting. The original portion of this villa is over 100 years old, its charming provenance evidenced by the traditional beam work in the finca ('estate or ranch', in Spain) portion of the villa. Updated to reflect modern comfort and style, every bedroom has it's own en suite bathroom, a plus for privacy and convenience. The oversize terrace is an extravagant space to enjoy the outdoor lifestyle that is the hallmark of Southern Spain. The outdoors is an additional, and complete, living space to play, rest, cook, and dine. Enjoy the warmth basking in one of the sun beds, or simply relax under the shaded patios for a romantic evening. Munch casual buffet style tapas in the outdoor living room and around the spacious pool deck, or enjoy sit down dining under the covered veranda. All three bedrooms are en suite, which is a rarity in the area. It is like having three hotel rooms under one roof. Privacy and convenience abound. There is direct access from the Master Bedroom (with aircon) leading to the oversized pool terrace, complete with an outdoor Living Room, an outdoor Dining Room, outdoor Fridge, and BBQ...and don't forget the VIEWS! Fully equipped kitchen with all conveniences: a new (2017) dishwasher, oven, plus microwave, clothes washer, wifi, and American size refrigerator. A DVD library, board games, plus English and Spanish television, along with Bluetooth capable stereo in the lounge are for your use. Chrome cast is provided if you wish to stream your own media. Ample gated and secure parking in the private motor court with easy convenient access from the main road, you will not require a sports utility vehicle needed by other remote locations. You have access to the entire main house, surrounding grounds to enjoy outdoor life, the entire pool terrace and covered outdoor living room, and plentiful gated parking. There is a separate owner's studio in the parking court, however it is never occupied while the Villa is rented to guests. Included is a book referencing the area restaurants (including menus), available recreation spots, and other local resources to enhance your stay. If I am not available the are to greet you, I have a wonderful gentleman, Enmanuel, who will be there to greet you and provide service requests (such as a hot tub which is available for hire, just speak to Enmanuel). Enmanuel was born and raised in the village and will be able to provide you with insight and history of the village. The villa is a pleasant 20 minute stroll into the village, or a convenient 5 minute drive. There are local taxis to provide you with transportation to the village (or to the coast and to the airport). In addition, there is a daily bus service to the coast from the village. Relaxation does not mean giving up your healthy lifestyle. Horseback riding, hiking, and even kayaking at the coast provide a day's adventure, or simply relax on the Mediterranean's world famous Costa del Sol. The Village has a full gym (weights and classes) that offers day & weekly passes. Private and class training in Pilates & Yoga are available, and a personal masseur is available to round out your day in Paradise. Terraced with vibrant art galleries and restaurants, Cómpeta is vivacious and engaging, while maintaining the cultural charm and grace of a traditional whitewashed Spanish mountain town. I proudly own one of the Village’s most popular and upscale restaurant destinations. If you can tear yourself away from the myriad of interests in the Village, elegant resort towns and beaches are just down the winding mountain road. A center for museums, shopping, and gastronomic delights await you in Malaga, or continue a few minutes to the nightclubs and gay scene in Torremolinos.
