Casa Carterra is a spacious and charming detached holiday villa for 6 people, ideal for families or groups of friends looking for peace, comfort, and privacy in sunny Andalusia. Located in the beautiful region of La Axarquía, in the municipality of Canillas de Aceituno, the villa offers the best of both worlds: a central location, easily accessible via paved roads, yet elevated enough to enjoy breathtaking views over the mountains and valleys of southern Spain. Only 50 meters of the road is unpaved, giving you the feeling of being surrounded by nature without compromising on comfort.
The heart of Casa Carterra is the extensive outdoor area. Surrounding the private pool is a large terrace where you can sunbathe, swim, or simply relax with a good book. At the back of the charming garden, there is a large covered area with an outdoor kitchen and lounge, perfect for long summer evenings with friends or family. Here you can enjoy delicious meals, refreshing drinks, and the spectacular sunrises and sunsets that make this part of Andalusia so special.
Inside, the villa is designed for comfort and convenience. Three spacious bedrooms, each equipped with air conditioning, ensure a refreshing night’s sleep even during the hottest summer months. The master bedroom features a luxurious bed of 180 x 220 cm, the second bedroom has two single beds of 90 x 200 cm, and the third bedroom is furnished with a bed of 180 x 200 cm. This makes Casa Carterra suitable for both families and groups of friends traveling together.
The villa has three fully equipped bathrooms, each with a separate shower and toilet. One bathroom includes a bathtub, perfect for relaxing after a day of hiking or at the beach. For added comfort, all rooms are equipped with air conditioning that can both cool and heat.
The living room is bright and spacious, furnished with comfortable sofas and a cozy seating area. Adjacent to it is the fully equipped kitchen, featuring an American-style fridge-freezer with ice dispenser, a 5-burner induction hob, two ovens, a microwave, and a Dolce Gusto coffee machine. This makes it easy to prepare elaborate meals together or a quick snack after a day full of activities.
For enjoyable evenings, there are also various board games available, a table tennis table, and a dartboard, ideal for spending quality time together.

About the owners of Casa Carterra
We are Evelien and Martijn, and since November 2021 we have been the proud owners of Casa Carterra. We were looking for a home in Andalusia because of the climate, the friendly people, the delicious food, and the versatility of the area. The house has everything we are looking for in terms of comfort and quality, with beautiful views and close to shops and the beach! We feel at home here and plan to live here in a few years. Until then, we want to let others enjoy our wonderful home.
We have outsourced the management to the team of Take a Holiday in Spain, ensuring that as a guest, you lack nothing and everything is well organized.
