Casa Caracol
Villa for 6 people in Altea, Spain
Hidden bohemian chic villa in La Olla with private pool
This house is a rare find. Located in one of the most wanted areas of Altea, it is only 700 meters from the beach of La Olla and near the center of Altea. La Olla is a quiet area of Altea right by the beach with a particular village-feel to it. There are cafes and shops at walking distance but the residential area is quiet. While very centrally located, the house itself is secluded with a private comfortable terrace with sea views and a large lush garden surrounding a private pool. A bit like being in the country side with all the benefits Altea has on offer at walking distance.
Please note, there is no access with a car all the way to the house.
There is, however, easy access to a secure private parking space for two cars at 50 meters walking distance. From there it´s a short walk through the fruityard to the house. This path is unpaved, so not really suitable for wheelchairs or strollers unfortunately.
Once on the premises of the house the whole house will be privately available for guests, including the garden with fruit trees, various terraces, bbq area and private pool. There are security gates between the terraces and the pool area and the whole garden is fenced so great for kids and dogs too.
The first thing that's noticable when you enter the house are the high beamed ceilings in the living room, giving the place a spacious feel. The living room in comfortably decorated and has an fully equipped open kitchen and wooden doors opening up to the patio with sea view. In the back of the house you will find three spacious bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The whole century old house has recently been renovated retaining the original wooden and tile features.
Central Altea is about a mile away, which can be easily reached on foot, but there is also a tram that runs between Calpe and Alicante and passes through La Olla. Very convenient for hopping on to reach Altea downtown, Benidorm or other coastal towns. The tram passes twice an hour during day time and stops behind the house. The noise pollution is minimal and by most guests is no longer even noticed after a few hours. The peace and serenity of the location is certainly not disturbed.
Not suitable for parties or groups of youngsters
