The villa has been renovated to a very high standard with all the modern fittings. The kitchen is open plan, bright and airy with Bosch appliances and a large American fridge/freezer with filtered water and ice dispenser as well as a Nespresso Coffee Machine. The dining area is joining the kitchen so it’s ideal for entertaining while preparing meals. The large living room area has comfortable sofas and a big new flat-screen Smart TV with both Apple-TV and Google Chromecast - there are even a number of free SKY satelite channels like Challenge with "The Chase". Wifi has been upgraded to the highest standard available in the area so streaming is working perfectly both in the house, outside and at the pool (Avatel Fiber).

There is a second large terrace recently updated with nice furniture, an electric awning to keep you in the shade whilst dining, as well as a nice BBQ. Both terraces have amazing sea views and plenty of sun the whole day.
Private parking for 2 cars just outside the villa.
Because of the unique layout of the house with sea view from all rooms, we do have some stairs both inside the house and outside the house - so this should be considered if you are a disabled person or if you have younger aged children.
All prices are including bed linen, towels, beach towels and cleaning etc. and of course all charges.
This is a non smoking and pet free house.
The town of Almunecar has plenty of supermarkets like Lidl, Dia, Carrefour Express and Mercadona, many bakeries, farmacias and special stores. All kind of normal shopping can be done here - and always in a cosy and local atmosphere. Most shops are open from 10 - 21 but closed for siesta 14 - 17. Most shops are closed on Sundays but many of the small Coviran Supemarkets and Carrefour Express are also open Sundays all year round.
Remember the casual Spanish way of looking at exact opening hours and days :-).
The town of Almunecar is divided into 2 areas; The old town, build on the steep rocks around the castle. And the new part on the footstep of the rock and along the beaches surrounding Almunecar.
All bars and restaurants in the town of Almunecar and surroundings are open all year round, while some restaurants at the beach are closed in the winter time. Everywhere drinks are followed by free tapas – so order drinks and wait to your tapas arrive before ordering any other food - otherwise you might end up ordering something you already would receive for free :-).

A hidden Gem!
By stephen & alison Smythson on 11-Jun-2026We very rarely write reviews as we prefer our hidden gems to remain hidden! However, as we are now booking Villa Cantasol for the third time, we must say what an absolute gem it is! The villa has a beautifully maintained interior with tranquil décor, a great kitchen kitted out with everything you need, a music system, air conditioning and cups, plates and glasses galore! The large, well-furnished terrace has a range of activities to keep everyone entertained, but no one could ever be bored of just sitting and gazing out at the fantastic view. We usually have online shopping delivered which is always very straightforward, although there are a number of large supermarkets in Almuñécar if you do want to shop. We tend to barbecue a lot in the evenings, but we also like to wander down to the beach bars or get a taxi into Almuñécar (always very easy) for a drink, which is always served with a tapa. The hosts and caretakers are always very responsive on the rare occasion that we have required assistance. All in all, a perfect holiday... roll on June 2027 when we're back again!
An absolute gwm
By Emma on 28-Jul-2026We love a villa holiday, the ‘no timetables’, chill out and totally relax. This Villa ticked all our boxes - sea views, walkable to beach, shops and restaurants (although it’s a very steep walk back up) and air con in all rooms. When we arrived we were not disappointed! The villa is so well equipped, everything you could possibly think of is in the kitchen, we utilised the bbq several times and sitting on the terrace under the electric awning with a cuppa first thing was bliss. The surrounding area is so quiet, the beds are super comfortable, the air con really good and the pool was perfect. We hired a car from the airport to airport so did bigger food shops in the Mercadona in Almuñecar (the most amazing Gluten Free bread rolls I’ve ever had!). We drove to Nerja for a beach day whilst the teens did a kayaking trip. Up to the mountains for a trip out was stunning. And chartered a sail boat from Marina Del este nr Herradura which was the best half day we’ve had (sukisailing.com - 3hrs for family of 5, sailed and motor powered round the bays, visited a cave and had a swim stop with the paddle boards, dinghy and towable ring - which the teens stayed in whilst heading back to port). We absolutely loved our stay and would definitely go back and recommend 100%.Fabulous memories made, Bo was extremely helpful before we went, answering all questions and Jen great when we’d arrived. Thankyou so much for a very relaxing holiday ❤️

excellent villa with wonderful views
By Paul on 14-Jul-2026This is the 2nd year we have chosen villa Cantasol. The villa is well equipped with excellent sea views from all rooms. Great communications from both owner and property management and we appreciated how clean the property was. Plenty of restaurant and bars in walking distance thankfully all downhill, with a 6euro cab return which are plentiful. So lovely we have decided to return next summer.

Dear Paul & family - many thanks for the very kind words, it is very much appreciated. We are looking so much forward to welcoming you again next year.
Fantastic villa
By Darren Rourke on 27-Jun-2026A beautiful villa in a fantastic location, with great views of the sea. The villa was well laid out and the kitchen was very well equipped. The villa had a/c throughout which provided respite from the glorious sun. The pool was larger than the photos suggested and I don't know if it was heated, but it was always just the right temperature. The villa was spotless, which is a credit to Jenny, who looks after the place. The villa was well stocked with books, board games, a dart board, fuzzball table and even table tennis! Whether you just want to relax, or use it as a base for venturing out, it is an ideal place to stay.

Fantastic Villa
By Ashcroft’s on 07-Jun-2025We loved everything, don’t hesitate, just book. We hesitated because the pool wasn’t heated, however it was the perfect temperature! We spent a lot of time in there looking out to sea and just relaxing. The views from the terrace were spectacular. We were were lucky to see a group of dolphins in the bay-just a magical. The filtered water was great, we hadn’t realised that this was offered until we got there.Its saves carrying bottles of water up the hill if you don’t hire a car. We did hire a car but seeing the bus station in Alumunecar when we walked there we realised how simple it would have been to use public transport. There is a taxi service next door to the station which would have taken us directly to the villa. If you were inclined to visit other places I’m sure you could catch the bus. We however enjoyed the Villa too much to leave. The Villa had everything, well stocked kitchen, everything you needed to prepare meals.Small supermarkets within walking distance, larger ones a drive ( or taxi) away. Wifi fast and TV with Netflix etc was a bonus. Recommend La Bonita, a short walk away , food was great and beautiful sea views. Primera ola was also loving, nice friendly staff too and we also watch dolphins swim while we had a drink. The only thing we didn’t like were the mosquitoes, but lots of repellents and that problem solved. The walk back up the hill in the evening could be a challenge for some. The terrace at night with a glass of wine was heaven.

I just realised that I never got to respond to your very kind review. It means a lot to us when we get such a fantastic review - many thanks. You are of course always very welcome to come back to Villa Cantasol and we will do our best to make your holiday unforgettable every time.......but we can't promise that you will see dolphins everytime :-)!
2nd time stsy
By Fin on 09-Sep-2024Twe stayed at the villa 2 years ago and it was perfect. Our 2nd trip there was equally good. We have never gone back to the same place before but the villa is unbeatable. This time we decided not to hire a car and used public transport from Malaga airport, all fine booking in advance with Alsa. The Hill upto the villa is steep! We usually walked to town and took a taxi back, around 8 euro. As others have said the villa is very well maintained and has everything you could need. The table tennis and darts board were well used by my family. Communication with the owners is very easy and whilst there the person looking after property was very responsive and helpful. Almunecar is a very nice town with enough going on but calmer than neighbouring towns.
