A lovely and quiet location in the hills
We had a thoroughly relaxing and enjoyable time at this villa, the location was wonderful and just what we were looking for as a place to relax for a week. It was well equipped and clean and the pool/outside areas were spacious and ideal for chilling either during the day or in the evening.
The property manager, Kevin, was friendly and most helpful both on our arrival and on the one time we had a question for him during our stay.
Finding the villa was a little tricky, but that was because we chose to try and find it ourselves rather than take up the offer of being met by Kevin at a local fuel station.
The drive down from the main road can be a little bumpy, so care is required but this short drive down if definitely worth it and we would definitely visit again.

Fabulous !
We had a wonderful stay in this great villa. We have been enjoying villa holidays in this area for many years and this is just about the best one yet. Inside and outside spaces both equally good.We really enjoyed the lovely pool and outdoor area. It was every bit as good as the photos. We would be happy to book again!

Great Stay
It was exactly as described. We loved every minute of it. The pool was great. The weather was extremely hot so we were in the pool a lot. The villa was nice and cool so we were never uncomfortable. Five Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lovely villa and outside space.
It was unfortunate that it was raining when we arrived in Spain but this was not so depressing when we arrived at the villa. It had a lovely lounge with gorgeous views all round. The electric radiators and air con provided much needed warmth. Luckily by the following day the weather perked up so we could enjoy the outdoor space. The outdoor kitchen and bbq was wonderful with much needed shade whilst cooking. And we loved the pagoda seating area with 360 degree views. Sun or shade depending where you sat anytime of day. Wonderful! The pool is just a nice size for a swim or cool down.
The kitchen is well equipped with a modern hob and oven.
A King size bed would be a nice addition to the bedroom. Plenty of drawer and wardrobe space.
My only grumble would be the bathroom. That shower curtain and me did battled everyday. A shower cubicle would be better. I dislike stepping in and out a bath although I appreciate some people like baths. Just my personal opinion.
The road leading to the villa by Andalusia standards is pretty good. It’s mostly made up, not too narrow or steep. Once you’ve done it once or twice it isn’t too bad, especially when you see how steep or narrow some of the roads are nearby.
Competa and Torrox towns are about 15/20 minutes drive as too to Torrox beach for shops and restaurants. I would say if you plan on doing more cooking than eating out then stop at a Carefour on the way from the airport to the villa as shops nearby aren’t huge. Co-Op size.

Our Special Place ❤️
This was our fourth year staying at Casa Pura Vida and we have already booked up our fifth for next year! I think our record speaks for itself as to how we feel about it! We unfortunately couldn’t travel last year and missed it so much we couldn’t wait to return! It is our special place and we couldn’t imagine holidaying anywhere else! Perfection!

Wonderful
We have stayed at many villas across Spain and Portugal and this villa is amongst the best
Its private and quiet with great views down the valley the house and pool are excellent
All essentials are provided for cooking inside and out we love our barbeques, Visiting local towns is easy enough with a car aand we really liked Nerja which has lots of choice food wise and a busy but pleasant atmosphere
We only met Kevin and he was great, explained everything and we knew he was available if needed
Many thanks to Kevin , Geert and Sofie we had a lovely holiday after waiting three years due to Covid hope to return sometime in the future
Regards Gary and Gill
PS: Plenty of Gecko's around ( little lizard things ) and we worked out thats what the drawings are in the guest book lol
