Villa Yucca Álora: Private villa near Málaga | pool, fireplace, and Caminito del Rey

Welcome to Villa Yucca, a peaceful and private countryside villa in the mountains of Álora, just 30 minutes from Málaga and the coast. With four bedrooms, space for up to eight guests, panoramic mountain views and plenty of indoor and outdoor living space, the villa is an ideal base for families, groups of friends and longer stays throughout the year.

Villa Yucca offers the tranquillity of the Andalusian countryside without feeling remote. A supermarket is just five minutes away, Málaga Airport can be reached in around 30 minutes, and the spectacular Caminito del Rey and El Chorro are only about 20–25 minutes by car. Álora, with its shops, restaurants and local amenities, is also close by.

The villa is especially well suited to autumn and winter stays. Cooler months are perfect for exploring the surrounding countryside, hiking, cycling or simply enjoying quiet days at the villa. After a day outdoors, you can relax in the comfortable living room beside the wood-burning stove, while the spacious kitchen also features a pellet stove. Fast and reliable Starlink Wi-Fi makes Villa Yucca a great option for guests who want to combine a holiday with remote work or stay for several weeks.

Inside, the recently renovated villa offers modern comfort while retaining the relaxed feel of a country home. Air conditioning is available in all bedrooms, the living room and the kitchen. The living room has comfortable lounge sofas and a 65-inch Google TV, while the large, fully equipped kitchen includes a dishwasher, oven, combination oven, Moccamaster coffee maker, Nespresso machine, kettle and toaster.

There are four comfortable bedrooms: two with king-size beds, one with a queen-size bed and one with two single beds that can be joined to create a king-size bed. The villa also has two spacious, recently renovated family bathrooms and a separate toilet, making it comfortable for larger families and groups.

Outside, Villa Yucca has plenty of space to enjoy the surroundings and the open mountain views. The private swimming pool overlooks the hills and countryside and is available for use year round. The large outdoor dining table and barbecue area are ideal for long lunches and evenings together. In front of the house, a private driveway provides ample parking for several cars and surrounds our beautiful 200-year-old olive tree.

The area is particularly attractive for active guests. From the villa, you are perfectly positioned to explore hiking, road cycling, mountain biking and motorcycling routes, while horse riding is also popular locally. The world-famous Caminito del Rey and El Chorro Nature Park are within easy reach. In and around Álora you will also find padel courts, while the Mediterranean coast (Málaga and Marbella) is around 30 minutes away for seaside days and water sports.

Whether you are looking for a relaxing family holiday, an active break in the mountains, a winter escape in southern Spain or a longer stay with space to work and unwind, Villa Yucca offers privacy, comfort and an excellent location close to both Málaga and some of inland Andalucía’s most beautiful scenery.
