Why Stay at Casa España?
More Than a Holiday Home – Your Private Escape in Authentic Andalusia
Casa España Journal – Discover the Real Andalusia
Some holidays are about ticking places off a list.
Others are about finding a place where you genuinely want to stay.
A place where mornings begin slowly, the mountains are never far away, and every day can be exactly what you want it to be.
Welcome to Casa España – your private holiday home in Cómpeta, in the heart of the Axarquía, Málaga.
Here, you don't have to choose between the mountains and the Mediterranean, between exploring and relaxing, or between discovering Andalusia and simply enjoying your own private space.
You can have a little of everything.
And that's precisely what makes Casa España different.
1. Discover the Andalusia Beyond the Resorts
Andalusia is much more than its famous beaches, crowded promenades and large holiday resorts.
Just inland from the Costa del Sol lies a different world.
Whitewashed villages, winding mountain roads, olive groves, vineyards and landscapes that have shaped local life for generations.
Cómpeta is one of those places.
Set in the mountains of the Axarquía, the village has retained much of its Andalusian character.
Its narrow streets, traditional houses, local restaurants and lively Plaza Almijara invite visitors to slow down and experience a different rhythm of life.
Casa España allows you to discover this side of southern Spain while enjoying the independence and privacy of your own holiday home.
2. A Private Holiday Home for 2–4 Guests
Sometimes the greatest luxury is having a place entirely to yourself.
Casa España is designed for couples, friends or small families who value privacy, comfort and independence.
With two bedrooms and two bathrooms, the house comfortably accommodates up to four guests.
You can enjoy breakfast whenever you like, prepare your own meals, relax outdoors or spend an entire afternoon doing absolutely nothing.
There are no shared hotel facilities, no crowded pool areas and no fixed breakfast schedules.
Just your own holiday home in Andalusia.
What Casa España offers:
Accommodation for 2–4 guests
Two bedrooms and two bathrooms
Fully equipped kitchen
Wi-Fi
Air conditioning
Private outdoor spaces
Private heated jacuzzi exclusively for house guests
A peaceful setting in the Axarquía
Personal recommendations for exploring the region
Whether you're planning a romantic escape, a few days with friends or a longer stay in southern Spain, Casa España offers the flexibility to make the holiday your own.
3. Your Own Private Heated Jacuzzi – All Year Round
Imagine returning from a day in the mountains.
The sun is beginning to set, the evening air is becoming cooler, and there's nothing left on your schedule.
Except perhaps a glass of local wine and a little time in the jacuzzi.
At Casa España, our private heated outdoor jacuzzi is exclusively available to guests staying at the house.
It's not a shared spa or a hotel wellness facility.
It's yours to enjoy throughout your stay.
And because the jacuzzi is heated, it can be enjoyed all year round.
Spring mornings, summer evenings, golden autumn afternoons and cooler winter nights all offer their own atmosphere.
Sometimes, the best part of exploring Andalusia is coming home afterwards.

4. The Natural Park on Your Doorstep
One of the greatest attractions of staying in Cómpeta is the surrounding landscape.
The magnificent Sierras de Tejeda, Almijara y Alhama Natural Park is one of southern Spain's remarkable mountain environments.
Rugged peaks, deep valleys, Mediterranean vegetation and traditional walking routes create opportunities for outdoor experiences throughout much of the year.
For nature lovers, this is a very different Andalusia from the crowded coastline.
Depending on your interests and experience, you can discover:
Scenic mountain walks
Traditional paths connecting white villages
Forests and river landscapes
Mountain photography
Birdwatching and wildlife observation
Dramatic viewpoints
Quiet places to enjoy nature
Spring and autumn are particularly attractive for exploring on foot, while winter can offer clear air and beautiful mountain light.
You don't have to be an experienced mountaineer to appreciate the landscape.
Sometimes, simply driving through the mountains and stopping at a viewpoint is enough.

5. Mountains in the Morning, Mediterranean in the Afternoon
Few holiday destinations offer such an appealing contrast between mountain landscapes and Mediterranean beaches.
From Cómpeta, you can explore the white villages and mountain roads of the Axarquía before heading towards the coast.
Nerja, Maro, Torrox Costa and the beaches around the eastern Costa del Sol are all possible destinations for a day by the sea.
Spend the morning walking through the mountains.
Enjoy lunch overlooking the Mediterranean.
Take an afternoon swim.
Then return to Casa España for a quiet evening.
You don't have to decide whether you prefer a mountain holiday or a beach holiday.
At Casa España, you can combine both.

6. Experience the Real Cómpeta
Cómpeta is not simply somewhere to sleep.
It's a destination in its own right.
Spend time wandering through the old streets, discovering small shops and enjoying the atmosphere of Plaza Almijara.
Have breakfast in a local café.
Visit one of the village restaurants.
Explore the surrounding vineyards.
Experience local traditions and cultural events.
And don't miss the opportunity to try the region's famous Moscatel wine.
What makes Cómpeta special is not one particular attraction.
It's the combination of landscape, culture, food and everyday village life.
For visitors who want to experience authentic Andalusia rather than just see it through a car window, staying nearby makes all the difference.

7. More Than Accommodation – Discover Our Private Experiences
At Casa España, we believe a holiday can be much more than simply renting a house.
That's why we also offer selected private experiences for guests who want to discover the Axarquía in a more personal way.
Depending on availability, season and individual interests, these may include:
Private Photography Experiences
Discover the landscapes, villages and light of Andalusia through photography.
Our private photography experiences are personally led by photographer Eric Berger and can be tailored to different interests and levels of experience.
Off-Road and Mountain Experiences
Explore selected mountain landscapes and lesser-known areas of the Axarquía.
Nature and Outdoor Experiences
Discover opportunities for nature photography, birdwatching, scenic excursions and selected outdoor activities.
Fishing Experiences
For guests interested in freshwater fishing, we can help arrange specialised experiences in Andalusia, subject to local regulations and availability.
Sunset and Stargazing Experiences
Experience a different side of Andalusia when the daylight fades and the mountain landscape changes.
These activities are optional and arranged individually.
Some of our favourite places are deliberately not published with exact GPS coordinates.
We believe certain experiences are better discovered personally than copied from an online list.

8. A Personal Connection to Andalusia
One of the differences between staying at Casa España and booking an anonymous holiday apartment is the personal connection behind the property.
Casa España is more than a rental listing.
It's a place shaped by a genuine enthusiasm for the Axarquía, its landscapes, culture, photography and everyday life.
Through the Casa España Journal, we share places we enjoy, restaurants we recommend, seasonal experiences and ideas for discovering the region.
And for guests who want additional guidance, we're happy to share personal recommendations.
Whether you're looking for a restaurant for a special evening, a scenic drive, an interesting village or a photography location, we want you to experience more than the standard tourist itinerary.
Our philosophy is simple: more than handing over the keys.
9. An Andalusian Holiday for Every Season
Andalusia isn't only a summer destination.
In fact, some of the most rewarding times to visit Cómpeta are outside the traditional holiday season.
Spring – Nature Comes Alive
Spring brings flowers, fresh landscapes and excellent opportunities for walking, photography and exploring the villages.
Summer – Mediterranean Days
Enjoy the beaches, village evenings, outdoor dining and long summer days.
Autumn – Sunshine Without the Crowds
September, October and November are particularly attractive for travellers who prefer a more relaxed atmosphere.
It's a wonderful time for hiking, sightseeing, food, wine and enjoying the heated jacuzzi.
Winter – A Different Kind of Escape
While much of northern Europe experiences cold and grey weather, the Axarquía can offer pleasant sunny days, quieter villages and beautiful conditions for exploring.
Winter weather is variable, especially in the mountains, but the season has its own appeal.
Casa España is a year-round destination.
10. A Place to Slow Down
Not every day needs an excursion.
You don't have to visit a different village every morning or organise an activity every afternoon.
Some days are best spent at the house.
Enjoy a long breakfast.
Read a book.
Prepare lunch with ingredients from a local market.
Sit outside.
Relax in the jacuzzi.
Watch the light change across the landscape.
One of the advantages of a private holiday home is having the freedom to do absolutely nothing.
And sometimes, that's exactly what makes a holiday memorable.
