If you're after a relaxing villa stay close to Nerja, Villa Irisa is sure to tick all of the boxes. Set in an idyllic spot within the vibrant region of Andalucia, the lively resort town of Nerja is just a five-minute drive away. With silky golden sand and calm blue waters, its stunning beach makes it the perfect day trip. For a taste of the local cuisine, explore the picturesque promenade, lined with restaurants serving up tasty tapas or fresh seafood. Further inland, you'll pass the charming whitewashed village of Frigiliana, voted Andalucia's prettiest, with winding cobbled stone streets, ancient plazas, and historic churches to explore.

With three separate outdoor terraces, Villa Irisa is all about its outdoor living. The main terrace features an inviting swimming pool, which even has an underwater seat to relax and cool off from the hot summer sun. Lined sun loungers overlooking the scenic Nerja landscape, unwind, and sip a cocktail in the sunshine. To escape the heat, the veranda is an idyllic spot to unwind with your favourite book or catch an afternoon nap. At the rear of the villa, another terrace features a shaded outdoor dining table and a gas barbecue, perfect for dinner and drinks against a spellbinding sunset. To top it off, the roof terrace boasts some of the best views in the area, with 360-panoramic views of the sublime golden coastline and surrounding villages.
