Built by the Moors, restored respecting its heritage with WIFI, SMART TV & SPA

Escape to Casa Aloe, a haven nestled within minutes of the majestic Sierra Nevada National Park.
Experience breathtaking uninterrupted valley views, stretching to the coast.
The house offers seclusion, privacy and peace, yet with the authentic Andalusian village of Atalbeitar just steps away, very well preserved, and an experience! it's as if you returned to the moorish times…very romantic. It also has ancient donkey lanes that make it a car-free village, mysterious but safe to explore and a paradise for children's games.

THE HOUSE:
The house has been recently restored using traditional materials in original ways, with beauty and comfort in mind.
Chestnut beams, bedrock corners and many unique touches give an original charm.
We, Tom and Carmen ( the owners) are both artists, and have delighted every winter since 2004 restoring this jewel with all our love and care, and so we are very happy when people come to enjoy our work.

THINGS TO DO:

Hike breathtaking trails, discover hidden gems, and reconnect with nature's beauty.

Immerse in tranquility: Unwind in the luxurious steam room, after exploring the National Park's wonders.

Relax and rejuvenate: Enjoy al fresco dining with the beautiful valley beneath you, or enjoy barbecues in the terrace under the stars, so bright there’s an observatory 20 min. from the house, if you are interested on tour of the stars.


Perhaps cozy up by the fire and unwind with a book. (There’s a Smart Tv with Netflix also)

Or swim in the lovely pool by the garden patio, shady and plant-filled to escape the heat of the midday summer sun. In the colder months the pool is heated, wonderful after a good long walk.
It has a hydro-massage and swimming against the current system.

In the evenings explore the variety of restaurants and bars in our valley, where the tradition is to give a free Tapa with every drink, and where often you can catch an evening of local music.
The charming villages of Ferreirola, Mecina, Fondales, Portugos, Pitres and Busquistar are all within a scenic walk of 15/20 minutes. Ask us about their Fiesta dates if interested, Atalbeitar’s is the second weekend of August.

This place is a heaven for lovers of nature, walkers and artists.
