Casa Miravista

The cosy living room at Casa Miravista features traditional Andalucian tiled floors and exposed ceiling beams combined with clean lines and white walls.

Furniture is elegant and understated and adheres to a neutral palette – cream sofas draped with chunky throws, flanked by two armchairs facing a statement coffee table of driftwood and glass.

Subtle ornaments adorn the space – large lamps casting a soft glow, a beautiful cabinet lining one wall with a vivid painting depicting a herd of zebras hanging on canvas above it.

The room is flooded with light thanks to the large plate glass window, which displays arresting views of the surrounding mountains to be enjoyed from the comfort of the sofa.

The kitchen at Casa Miravista embodies stylish, rustic-chic – featuring light, sandalwood cabinets, white granite work-tops, and gleaming appliances.

The kitchen contains a large, white ceramic sink and plenty of surface space to prepare and cook meals. Also on offer is an oven, a four ring electric hob, Nespresso coffee machine, juicer and kettle.

The villa owners also provide a welcome hamper containing essentials such as olive oil and salt and pepper and coffee, meaning nipping to the shops won’t be necessary upon arrival and guests can get straight down to the serious business of relaxing.

Meals can be eaten at the eight-seater table indoors, with views out over the mountains, or on the terrace outside with contains a communal dining space with a family-sized table, plus outdoor kitchen with BBQ and stone pizza oven.

Casa Miravista’s secluded rural positioning means that the only sounds heard from the garden are the rustle of the wind through the trees, the gurgle of birdsong and the low thrum of crickets and honey bees.

Despite WiFi being on offer throughout the property, the villa does not have a television – encouraging visitors to pick up a book instead or simply lie on a hammock on the terrace outside and contemplate the views.

The location of the villa also means keen hikers and bikers will be spoilt for choice when it comes to choosing a trail.

And for those with aching limbs at the end of a day hiking Maroma mountain, the owner-concierge would be happy to arrange a poolside masseuses and private chef for your return.
