Excellent house with lovely pool set in delightful hillside location with super views
As a family of 4 adults and 1 teenager we found the house and pool met all our requirements - space, character, well equipped, comfortable beds, peaceful and plenty of shade when needed. We visited Nerja, Frigiliana, Malaga and Competa where we found interesting with things to do, places to visit and good food. The road up into the hills was quite twisty turny and the track to the house is bumpy and requires concentration, but over the course of the week you get used to it. Great to be met by the guardian Patrick and escorted to the house, thank you. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

A true slice of tranquility and superb scenery.
Well where do you start describing Villa Estrella de Competa. Once you have got used to driving the challenging track from the road to the villa, you are rewarded with traditional rural Spanish scenery and peace and quiet you can only dream of. The villa has the authentic Finca feeling about it and has a good balance between old and new. It is bright and airy during the day and cool and quiet at night. The bedroom, bathroom and kitchen windows have mosquito screens on them, allowing you to keep them open at night for good airflow. On top of that, the bedrooms and the main living room have ceiling fans to add a gentle breeze. The beds are all singles (pushed together in the two main bedrooms to make doubles) and very comfortable compared to your usual villa beds. Outside there is a large patio area split between an area with sun loungers and a table for outside eating that seats eight people. You can sit here eating and drinking a good Rioja whilst watching the world go by, be it, the occasion car driving along the winding country road, the goat herder and his herd of goats as they pass by in the evening or the neighbour to the left of the Finca tending to his mango plants. As you go down a small flight of steps to a lower lever, you are met by the sight of the pool. It is a little deep at the deep end, but is much larger than the majority of Spanish villa pools. A further four sun loungers are situated around the pool (making the total number of loungers six) and a nice breeze blows over the pool so you can either enjoy swimming/playing in the pool or lie in the sun without feeling too hot. Don't be fooled though as the pool area is a complete sun trap and you will certainly burn without realising it unless you use sun screen. This is a villa you won't want to leave when your holiday has ended and will count the months until you return.

Dear Philip, thank you so much for your wonderful, detailed and comprehensive review. Yes the track to our house is a little bit challenging, but today we have decided to let the road be repaired with concrete. So next time, when you come it will not be challenging anymore. Thank you again and we hope to hear from you in the next future. Kind regards, Hetty

Super verblijf gehad bij Finca La Estrella. Fijne verhuurder!
Zeer fijne vakantiewoning met alle voorzieningen. De woning beschikt tevens over verschillende terrassen met een schitterend uitzicht. Wij hadden problemen met een airco in een slaapkamer maar ondanks de vakantieperiode waardoor monteurs schaars zijn heeft Hetty dit toch nog voor ons vanuit Nederland op kunnen lossen. Ook de beheerder Peter is een erg aardige en behulpzame man. Wij raden deze woning en verhuurder van harte aan.
