Villa With Heated Pool, AirCon, Spanish kitchen with pizza oven, free WiFi
Casa Carolina is situated in the countryside just 10 minutes from the lovely pueblo blanco (white village) of Competa with it's many shops, bars and restaurants. The villa enjoys a peaceful setting with only the sounds of nature to disturb you. Its surroundings are lovely - the view up to the mountains is simply stunning. Terraces and gardens surround the villa with a lovely pool to make the most of the outdoor lifestyle. A Spanish kitchen is set next to a pretty vine covered pergola for alfresco dining while watching the sun set over the hills. There is a large area of land which belongs to the villa, with olive and almond trees and wild herbs leading down to a stream - a wonderful place for nature lovers with wild flowers, bees, butterflies and birds and, of course, the ever present song of crickets. If you tire of all this there is plenty to do close by visiting the beaches of the Costa del Sol, pretty Spanish towns and the cities of Malaga and Granada. The house is cozy in winter with heating and a log burner and secure if you have a dog.

We wanted peace and quiet with home from home comforts (and some sun of course) - and we found everything at Casa Carolina! We quickly got used to the final access to the property over a rough track and enjoyed sunbathing by the lovely heated pool and watching the sun go down with a glass or two in one of the many viewpoints. The villa interior is cool and comfortable - we slept very well. And it’s barely a half hour’s drive to fabulous sandy beaches! Marie and Clive were perfect hosts - we’ll certainly want to return!
Our family had a great time in Casa Carolina. It's a beautiful location set right in the hills and the house is v.well equipped inside. The owners were very helpful and went out of their way.
We have just stayed at Casa Carolina and have had the most amazing holiday. To be met by the super friendly and helpful Pedro was a brilliant start, I don’t think we would have found the house otherwise! You absolutely need a car to be able to stay here and to explore the beautiful mountain area.
The house was so comfortable and well equipped. There was nothing that we could suggest to improve and the house and all of the outside areas were really clean.
The house was warm and cosy, we only lit the log burner on a couple of the more chilly evenings. The weather was really pleasant but we were super pleased that we had paid for the pool to be heated, the children spent hours in there and it really made the holiday (I heard people grumbling on the plane home that they hadn’t been able to swim in their pools as too cold!) We loved being able to cook and eat outside and the view while you do it is spectacular.
The area itself is stunningly beautiful. The town of Cómpeta is lovely with plenty to explore and some nice places to eat and drink.
Communication with Marie and Clive was really easy and responsive. They provided all the required information in good time and were really friendly and welcoming.
Everything about this holiday exceeded expectations. We would definitely recommend for a comfortable family adventure. We would love to come back! Thankyou.
Cosy hide away in the mountains. Property clean and comfortable. Excellent outdoor amenities, especially the pool and seating area. Excellent communication with hosts and property manager.
It was exactly as stated on the website. Perfect location for a week of swimming, sunbathing, chilling and falling in love with the view.
Pedro's colleague who meet us was friendly and bubbly, as well as helpful. The road to the villa is not the best as on one section could damage the underneath of your car if you are not careful.
I would absolutely recommend this villa for anyone who is either looking for a complete chill out holiday or as someone to use as a base for travelling to local towns.
Directions that were given were one of the best I have had.

About the host
Hosted by clive cole
Clive and Marie have owned their holiday home since 2007 and have spent the past years improving it. We purchased Casa Carolina for family holidays, and, looking to the future, a place to retire. All revenue goes straight back into the property for maintenance and improvement for all to enjoy.
Why they chose this property
We love Competa for it's close location to some of the bigger Costa del Sol resorts but it is an unspoilt, typical Spanish village with breathtaking scenery and clean mountain air.
What makes this property unique
The stunning views, south facing swimming pool terrace, beautiful garden
