Sea and mountain views from the pool

The house sits on the hills of Arenas: the Mediterranean in front, the Axarquía behind, and the beach 15 minutes away by car.

Villa Selvatic is a 180 m² retreat for up to 12 guests in Arenas, with sea and mountain views, a private pool, a sauna, a cinema room and a long list of ways to have fun. It is made for families and groups of friends looking for comfort, privacy and good times, just 10 minutes by car from the beach.

The house is spread over two floors. All the shared areas and three of the four bedrooms are on the main floor; only bedroom 1, with a private bathroom and terrace, is upstairs. The living room is spacious and bright, with a fireplace, Smart TV and sea views, and opens straight onto the terrace. The decor blends modern comfort with a tropical "selvatic" style that gives every room its own character.

On the lower floor there is a second lounge area with the cinema room for 8 people, the pool table and a small auxiliary kitchen for snacks, drinks and movie nights.

The main kitchen is equipped with an oven, microwave, dishwasher, Nespresso machine, kettle, toaster and a full set of kitchenware.

The outdoor space is where Villa Selvatic shines: a private pool with sun loungers and a volleyball net, a barbecue area with a table, ping pong, covered and open terraces, a garden, and private parking for 3 cars within the grounds.

  • Cinema room for 8 people
  • Games room with pool table
  • Finnish sauna
  • Mini golf
  • Children's playground with wooden playhouse and tipi
  • Outdoor ping pong
  • Cornhole and garden games

You arrive along a quiet, paved country road above Algarrobo. Some stretches are narrow, so it is best to drive slowly. The villa is signposted from the main road and we send you directions before you arrive.

Some outdoor areas are separated by green fences to mark which spaces belong to the house: the pool, terraces, mini golf, playground, barbecue and gardens are all yours. Our maintenance team makes a short visit once a week for the pool and garden, and only enters the outdoor areas.
