Beautiful 5 bedroom villa with 17 metre pool and stunning views. Reg VTAR/MA/02

Villa Olivia is our home from home in Spain and, as such, is much more than a typical rental.

The house is perched on a hill below Frigiliana, our local white village, with stunning views down to the valley to the sea. It has 5 bedrooms, 3 doubles and 2 twins, all with air-conditioning or ceiling fans, and four bathrooms.

The wide expanse of pool terrace features a 17 metre walk-in swimming pool, which is ideal for those morning lengths. We provide sun beds for 10 people as well as tables and chairs. There are two further terraces and three maintained garden areas, laid to lawn with a range of bougainvillea, hibiscus, fruit trees and plenty of shady spots.

Al fresco dining is the order of the day, as the kitchen window opens outwards onto the main terrace, to form a bar, where there is seating for 10 and a large gas barbecue. There are adjustable blinds to achieve any level of shade you might need to ensure the ice in your Gin & Tonic does not melt. If you fancy lunch by the pool, there is a built-in barbecue on the pool terrace, as well as a fridge and sink.

The house is equipped with full fibre broadband, offering free wi-if and streaming through a SMART TV. There is also a DVD player with an extensive library of titles, a modern music system for CDs with bluetooth downloading and a full bookcase.

The kitchen is well-stocked with crockery, cutlery and glasses and is equipped with a coffee machine, toaster, dishwasher and an American-style fridge freezer with ice-making facility. There is a washing machine and tumble drier in the utility room, as well as a portable clothes drier for fresh air drying

Our gardener visits twice a week to maintain the extensive garden and the pool, while our management company provides laundry and cleaning facilities, as well as being available to solve any problems or carry out any minor repairs.

We provide a book of instructions, which tells you all you need to know about how things work and gives recommendations of local sights, restaurants etc.

We are very keen that you should make yourself at home and the only rule we would like you to observe is only to take plastic glasses down to the pool

Frigiliana can be reached on foot and there is a regular bus service into Nerja, but we recommend you hire a car, as there are some wonderful sights to see nearby as well as day trips to Granada, Cordoba and Seville
During your stay at this villa, you'll be within walking distance of The Sierras of Tejeda, Almijara & Alhama. You'll find features like an outdoor pool, a water park, and a spa tub. Free WiFi and a private pool are available in the villa.

Fantastic Villa
Spacious villa in elevated location, stunning views to sea and great sunsets. Fully equipped both inside and out, huge pool. Plenty of room for our 2 families with 4 teenage children. Bus connections to nearby towns of Nerja and Frigiliani (very picturesque). Would very much recommend.

Wonderful villa
We had a lovely stay in Villa Olivia. The villa was spacious and comfortable and suited our needs perfectly. The pool was a great size for us all, as was the balcony when we needed to escape the sun. Air conditioning would have been welcomed downstairs.

Wonderful villa
We had a fantastic holiday in Villa Olivia. The villa itself is amazing - very spacious inside, large swimming pool, well kept gardens, table tennis area, large shaded terrace for relaxing and outdoor meals, and of course the awesome views over the countryside and to the sea. Everything at the villa was clean and well-maintained. We enjoyed walking up to the picturesque village of Frigiliana for evening meals, and took the car for the short drive to visit Nerja and the nearby supermarkets. We can definitely recommend this villa and hopefully we’ll get the chance to return.

Lovely house in a lovely area.
We stayed in Oct 23. The villa is as described and pictured on VRBO and it was very clean and comfortable. The highlights are the external areas with great outdoor eating areas, pool (which although unheated was at a very comfortable temperature) and gardens. There have been comments that the downstairs bedrooms are not airconditioned but they were fine when we stayed. There is space for two cars to park off road but I do feel you do need a car here. Nerja and Frigiliana are both very close and very nice places to visit and eat - lively but not boisterous. We didn't have a bad meal in either place. Everybody in my group had an excellent stay and we were sad to leave. One tip: If you want to go to Granada and see the Alhambra book online well in advance (8 weeks to be safe). It books up and there are no longer any tickets available on the day despite what it says online. We missed it so will have to go again.

We had the pleasure of staying at a beautiful villa that offered breathtaking views, a wonderful neighborhood, and a fully equipped kitchen for cooking enthusiasts like us. The villa's terrace was spacious and cozy, and the swimming pool was large and inviting. The garden added a nice touch to the overall ambiance. The host of the villa provided us with recommendations for local restaurants and places to visit that we used. Overall we are very happy about our stay

Villa Holiday in Beautiful Frigiliana
The property is ideal for a family. In our case we were five adults and four children. Being there in early August , with daily temperatures in the mid 30s meant the pool was a blessing, particularly for the children. The property is also blessed with a large well maintained garden, offering views down the valley to the sea. One improvement I would make is the addition of ac in the two downstairs bedrooms. During our stay the ceiling fans proved inadequate, though is suspect only in the hottest months of the year. Despite this minor inconvenience, I would happily return to Villa Olivia, and have already recommended the property and area to a number of friends. Lastly, I would like to thank Ian, the owner for his assistance and advice in making this a memorable holiday for us all.

Magical retreat
We were 2 families with 4 kids between us but they are all pretty grown up these days. The house was so perfect for us. Large open shared spaces and very generously sized bedrooms. The house is well equipped for large groups as well. We walked up to Frigiliana a few times (short but steep 2km walkl) which was lovely. And explored the beach and town side of Nerja. We did the kayaking trip one afternoon and it was a great experience. We found the notes from Ian invaluable. Over all a fantastic and much needed holiday. Thanks to Ian and family for sharing his beautiful villa. Anna

This is a great house with responsive owners and no problems arising during our stay. The views are spectacular. Multiple porches, big swimming pool deck, comfortable chairs and lounges. It's close to Nerja and restaurants and shopping or the beach. Less than 60 min from the airport. Barely 60 min to Granada and the Alhambra. The caves are close by. One of the best places we've ever stayed. Supreme comfort and space.

Excellent villa in a lovely location
The villa was fabulous, the pool is brilliant especially in these Covid times. Our children hardly left the pool for 2 weeks. The house has all the conveniences you need for self catering, loads of room, beautiful grounds and oh what a view! We'd have liked air con downstairs but as we spent most evenings on the terrace enjoying the sultry evenings it is a minor issue. And the maintenance company came round in less than an hour to sort out an electrics issue with the lights around the pool so all in all a brilliant place to spend 2 weeks.

What a wonderful location and villa. The views are beautiful along with a wonderful pool and terraces. There were 5-8 of us over 2 weeks...all working/zooming as a respite from London and NYC. Our trainer joined us and did his online zoom classes poolside. So peaceful. The kitchen is especially well equipped. Pool furniture needs an upgrade but otherwise all fine.

Despite arriving in a storm Villa Olivia lived up to expectations immediately, with beautiful gardens set in a quiet road. Once inside we found that it was spotlessly clean and well organised, making us feel at home. Having enjoyed many villa holidays over the years, with family and friends I would say that Villa Olivia distinguishes itself by its perfectly equipped kitchen, comfortable furniture, beautiful views and a great sized pool. We had a relaxing, fun holiday.

Great family holiday!
Lovely property, beautiful views, fantastic pool and a wonderful place for a family holiday! Frigiliana isa five minute drive for a beautiful historic town and Nerja just a ten minute drive for a great family seaside resort and lots going on. Could be slightly improved by adding air con to the two downstairs bedrooms.

Villa was bigger and much better than we expected. Pool was excellent as we're all the facilities. Felt like a home from home. Convenient location for both Frigliana and Nerja. Only negative would be lack of air con in 2 downstairs bedrooms, but it was very hot when we stayed.
