Description

Welcome to our beautiful holiday home in La Herradura, on Spain's sunny Costa Tropical. The villa 'Casa Stefania' is 5 minutes from the seafront and beach, in this charming and un-spoilt Spanish town. Our comfortable villa is light and modern throughout with 4 bedrooms (all en-suite), a large open plan living/dining area & a well equipped kitchen. We offer a fabulous private heated swimming pool surrounded by a large patio for lounging on day beds. There are 3 outside eating areas (with BBQs) & room for table tennis & other ball games in the garden. The villa is set in a magically tranquil location, with stunning sunsets and breathtaking views across the bay. The garden and terraces are an ideal place to soak up the last of the sun at the end of the day, with a glass of wine. The variety of birds and the occasional passing of the local goatherder is your only distraction. La Herradura has a good selection of cafes, restaurants and bars, availability to hire sunbeds & windsurfers.

Accessibility
Wheelchair access only for ground floor which has one double/twin bedroom. Two steps down to pool area but 15 steps down to garden.



Outside
The Pool is 10m x 5m in size. 1.3 metres deep at shallow end 2 metres deep end. Around the pool there is a large terrace area with sunloungers, table and chairs, umbrellas and a Weber BBQ. On the lower level there is a terrace with built in BBQ, grass areas for games or lounging. Leading out from the sitting room there is a balcony with stunning views, table and chairs and small BBQ.

Coast/Beach
La Herradura means horse shoe in Spanish and describes the bay. There are 20 or more beaches in the area all of which offer their own character. Some are very remote and require a hike down a rocky path, while others like the beaches of La Herradura and Almunecar are right in the town and offer all facilities. There are beaches for the family and for the nudist, for nature lovers and those looking for lunch. If you want a buzzy atmosphere Burriana beach is a must.

Golf
Bavieira Golf Club is 20 mins away towards Malaga, very well kept course with lovely views. 10 mins further on is Anoretta Golf Club which is a very well designed and quite a hilly course. Los Moriscos Golf Club is 20 mins away towards Motril, it has spectacular views of the Sierra Nevada. And there are another 2 courses in the direction of Granada that will take you 45 mins to an hour.

Skiing
Just over an hour away are the mighty Sierra Nevada Mountains with Spain’s best skiing and highest peaks at over 3400m. The Sierra Nevada offer a year round sports resort based in a beautiful National Park. As the sunniest ski resort in Europe with one of the longest ski seasons (early December to late April) the resort offers some of Europe’s best skiing for the intermediate and beginner skier. It is a surprisingly large resort with over 80 kilometers of groomed piste and 27 different lifts and many mountain restaurants and a well developed resort area with several hotels, restaurants, bars and that special Spanish après ski night life. On a clear day from the top of the resort at 3300m you can clearly see the Mediterranean Sea and the coast and Riff Mountains in Morocco.

Special interest holidays
La Herradura and Nerja are famous for their underwater caves and this has led to many sub-aqua diving clubs operating in the Herradura and Marina del Este. The bay and surrounding area have been designated a marine reserve. Sailing boat hire and speed boat hire, both with and without crew are available from the marina. Para gliding is also available with companies offering training for beginners. In addition, a short drive takes you up into the mountains where there are numerous walks and traditional white villages to visit. Also during February and March, visiting the Alpujarras with the wonderful almond blossom is a sight to behold. Andalucia is a bird watchers dream, due to the wonderful variety of species, beautiful unspoilt countryside and the good climate, it is the perfect location for a bird watching holiday. Horseriding is also available, with stables 2 mins away.
