Set in a peaceful and secluded location in the 'Honey River' National Park, just a five minute drive from the pretty village of Maro and 10 minutes from the town of Nerja, this pretty, traditionally furnished Andalucian villa provides the ideal setting for a peaceful and private holiday. Wonderful country and mountain views can be enjoyed from the outside terraces, whilst a private pool and built-in barbecue add the finishing touches to this beautiful and tranquil retreat.

Resort: Rio de la Miel in Andalucia
We have a couple of villas hidden away in this tranquil area, a remote and beautiful natural park of avocado trees and sugar cane, hence the name which means ‘Honey River’. The nearest village is Maro. This tiny hamlet seems to have missed the main tourist spotlight and just has a couple of bars, mini-markets and a beach. From the main road here, there are narrow paths winding down to some often quiet little coves. Many of our properties are located in tranquil areas, accessed by driving along unsurfaced mountain roads. When you take in the stunning views from your villa it will make the journey entirely worthwhile.

recommends this villaMr Larsen, Caernarfon, August 2011
"Lovely villa, private and out of the way, but within easy reach of shops/restaurants - with car. A very relaxing holiday, you can be as un/sociable as you like! Our 3 children loved the pool and were quite happy to spend all day there, never once asked for tv - was never turned on! Lovely to sit out at night time. Highly recommended! "

recommends this villaMr Langley, Nottingham, July 2010
"The villa was on top of a hill and had no other villas in the near area around it which was what we wanted, this lead to a peaceful and relaxing holiday. There was a breeze from the mountain which cooled you off nicely when sunbathing and the pool was immaculately kept. This villa was a credit to the owner, well cleaned, maintained and looked after. Watching the sunset at 7:30 and when the stars came out it was fantastic, overall very good "

"Very quiet location. Ideal for a getaway, but not too far from the madding crowd! "
Mr Graves, Winchester, September 2008
"The overall experience was excellent, the villa and its location were above what was expected, the driving directions to the villa were spot on and made the journey very simple, the only down point was the rep called one day whilst we were out and left a note to say she would call back, would be better if she had left a note giving someguide time as to her return, as a result we never saw her, do not know if she ever called back. "
Mrs Hefferland, Cambridge, August 2008
"We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, the weather & the villa were excellent. The only low point was the check-in procedure at Gatwick airport and that was outside your control. Thank you. "
Mrs Bertram, Livingston, June 2007
