Casa Collalba

type of building: Detached house. size of property: 1900m².

The villa is situated on a small hill high above the sea, so that you can enjoy a panoramic view over the coast and the sea all day long as far as the old watchtower Torre del Pirulico on the steep cliffs in the distance. The view is unobstructed, the property and the pool are secluded from all sides due to the hillside location. This means you can enjoy a holiday in complete peace and seclusion.

The well-kept, uncrowded beach of Mojacar Playa is right at your feet. You can easily reach it by car (2 minutes) or on foot (8 minutes). The beach is 700 metres away by road and 400 metres as the crow flies.

The house can be reached via a 30 metre long driveway and has its own lockable carport. From the garage you reach a lushly planted front courtyard and the entrance to the detached, single-storey house.
The domed vestibule leads you into the spacious living room. Here you will find a leather seating area, a television and a library. There is also a dining table and chairs in the living room, should you wish to eat inside.

The terrace is at ground level directly in front of the house and is lushly planted. It has a table with chairs and parasol for dining or simply enjoying the fantastic sea view.

A second, lower terrace, where the swimming pool is located, can be reached via a staircase from the upper terrace (not barrier-free). The pool is approx. 10 metres long and has a slope so that it is suitable for children in the front part and has no standing height in the rear part. A wide flight of steps leads into the pool.

From the lower terrace area, another staircase leads to the flat below (not barrier-free). This has its own entrance and can be locked. It has a double bed and a sofa bed that can be folded out into a double mattress if required. It has its own small bathroom with WC, bidet and shower.

Surroundings: The coastal town of Mojacar is located on the largely unspoilt Costa de Almeria in southern Spain. There is a strict building ban on multi-storey buildings in the town. The house is located in the centre of the town on a hill and thus offers a magnificent view of the town and the coast. As a tranquil holiday resort, Mojacar offers fantastic beaches, diving schools, golf courses and a riding stable.

There are numerous restaurants where you can enjoy both local specialities and international cuisine.
Bars and discos provide a varied nightlife programme. Various sights in the surrounding area offer attractive excursion destinations: the nearby Cabo de Gata coastal national park with its beautiful beaches, the old town of Granada with the Alhambara, the palm grove of Elche, or the desert of Tabernas with its western film backdrop are tempting places to visit

How to get there: The nearest international airport is in Almeria, 80 kilometres away, and can be reached quickly via the motorway. Travelling via the airports of Alicante, Granada or Malaga is also possible without any problems. The cheapest flight connections are generally to Malaga. Car hire is also available cheaply at these airports (if booked in advance via the internet).

Living room 1
Other living room equipment : The living room is very spacious and generously furnished. The floor is paved with marble slabs and the walls are partly decorated with Moorish blind arcades. A comfortable sofa corner with leather upholstery around a glass table offers space to sit and watch television. The dining table in a separate area of the living room can be used if it is too cold or windy outside (for winter rentals). In the living room there is also a small library with novels, travel literature and art books, which you are welcome to read. A grand piano in the library corner is also available for guests to use, but please treat it with care (children should not use the instrument to play unless they have had piano lessons). There are personal belongings on the shelves and in the wall cupboards in the living room, as the house was lived in all year round by the landlord's parents until recently (we kindly ask the tenants to respect the private belongings and not to disturb them). From the living room you can step through a patio door directly onto the upper terrace with its outdoor seating area. Also directly accessible from the central living room are bedroom 1, bathroom 1, a second toilet and the kitchen. The living room can be accessed from the house entrance via a vestibule with a domed ceiling.

Bedroom 1
Other bedroom furnishings: There are several spacious built-in wardrobes in the bedroom. It has direct access to the main terrace and thus a view of the sea. The baby travel cot can be set up in bedroom 1.

Bedroom 2
Other bedroom facilities: The second bedroom is located separately from the main house below the pool terrace and is accessible via a staircase from the main terrace (not barrier-free). The separate entrance is lockable. The spacious room has its own small bathroom with shower and WC. Bedroom 2 also has a sofa that can be folded out into another bed (e.g. for children) on prior request. There is also enough space to set up a travel cot for a baby. Bedroom 2 can therefore be used by a small family.

Bedroom 3
Other bedroom facilities: The third bedroom is very small and does not have its own bathroom. Therefore, the bathroom of bedroom 1 (with separate access) as well as a separate second toilet with washbasin can be used. Bedroom 3 is particularly suitable for children who share their parents' bathroom. Bedroom 3 has a spacious wall cupboard.

Location description : Mojacar Playa is the coastal resort to the traditional Andalusian pueblo of Mojcar, which is situated on a hilltop just 3 km from the coast and offers beautiful distant views. The traditional village on the mountain with its car-free, narrow, enchanted streets offers the visitor many small shops for fashion, jewellery and souvenirs, numerous pubs and restaurants. The village on the coast is called Mojacar Playa and is one of the quietest holiday resorts on the Spanish coast, far away from the crowded tourist centres of Spain. There has been a ban on building multi-storey houses in the village for decades, giving it a Mediterranean flair and allowing unobstructed views of the sea, especially from our property. A road runs along the coast through the village with countless restaurants and bars, a discotheque and a large and a small supermarket. Along the sea, just a few metres above the beach, there is a pleasant path for walkers and joggers that runs through the entire village. The wide sandy beach is several kilometres long, interrupted by small rocky headlands, and is kept very clean. It is freely accessible along its entire length. It is ideal for families with children to swim and play.
Other sports and leisure activities: Due to the warm climate, even in winter, golf is possible all year round.

A baby travel cot is available, which can be placed in bedroom 1 or bedroom 2 (under the pool terrace). A sofa bed for children can also be folded out in bedroom 2. 2x bedding for children is available.
