Finca Essenza

Finca Essenza
Relax completely in our charming finca with large swimming pool, spacious outdoor lounge and kitchen and beautiful views of the Sierra Nevada.
In short: back to the essence…nature, sun, zen and friendship.
Our house: Finca Essenza is located in the middle of the hills of the Axarquía, a beautiful region just north of Malaga.
We had the old finca renovated by a local contractor who works with people from the region and with authentic Spanish materials, into a nice and spacious holiday home. The house is a great place to relax by the pool with your friends or family and enjoy the beautiful view of the Sierra Nevada. In the morning you walk to the village for a delicious cup of coffee on a terrace and to get fresh bread.
From the house you can be in the middle of bustling Malaga within half an hour, rent a bike and explore the city in this special way with its many historical sights, nice terraces, tasty restaurants and beautiful shops. Or you choose to spend a day visiting beautiful Granada with its medieval Moorish palace, the Alhambra.
Do you like an adventure? Then walk El Camenito del Rey, a great experience! And if you are tired of all those sights, you can ask chef Leon to prepare a delicious meal for you at home. Or you order a pizza in the village.
