About this property

Villa Buena Vista in Granada - Andalusia

Welcome to Buena Vista Villa: sustainable tourism in Alpujarras of Granada - Sierra Nevada Natural Park

We are in the center of Alpujarras, in the Park of Sierra Nevada and adjacent to the National Park, in the valley with more biodiversity in Europe, 15 km from the Recreation Station Puerto de la Ragua , 30 km from the Highway A-92, next to the E4 GR-7 (European long distance path), ... the Villa Buena Vista is probably the oldest and most traditional of La Alpujarra in an organic farm. Approved by the Ministry of Tourism with nº CR/GR/00024.

Over 200 years looking at Laroles with Sierra Gador the background to the left Sierra Nevada, and right the Mediterranean Sea.

Villa Buena Vista, is an old farmhouse renovated with several buildings style (flat roofs covered launa, fireplaces topped with slabs of slate, stone walls , ...) within a farm with more than 2 hectares of chestnut and fruit trees (chestnut, pear, apple, walnut, cherry, apricot, persimmon, quince and almond trees), in the Natural Park and in the most authentic part of Alpujarras and the Andalusian Legacy Trail. We offer a nice swimming-pool with filter for the summer months, where they will enjoy healthy water alpujarreñas, looking across the valley of the River Laroles dotted with old mills hydraulic. The charm of a unique landscape.

All homes are different, we try to offer an experience of returning to nature, to the home of our ancestors, but with the comforts of today and respect for the environment around us. Each house has its own space with benches and tables to sit in the sun or in the shade of a chestnut, several eucalyptus or some vines.

Villa Buena Vista: Comfort, peace, security, nature ... and sustainable tourism. Buena Vista house has one living room with fireplace, one lounge, 4 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 toilet, kitchen, pool and a scenic terrace that gives the name to the Villa Buena Vista by the spectacular scenery that can be seen. The interior is style with antique furniture. Studio is a small apartment with 1 bedroom, kitchen, living room with fireplace, 1 bathroom and a huge terrace, located on the top floor with the best views across landscape.

The house La Alberca has two double bedrooms, kitchen (fridge freezer and all the basic equipment), lounge with fireplace, living room with sofa bed and bathroom. Central heating during the cool period.
You will find the living room and bedroom on the ground floor and a bedroom, lounge, kitchen including the bathroom are on the first floor. To meet the old building, access to the upper floor is a wooden staircase (see photos). The atmosphere of the house is rustic, with antique farm tools.

Aula´s house is dedicated to the National and Natural Park of Sierra Nevada, with photographs of flowers, landscapes and maps. It is integrated into the environment, by using the surface materials such as stone, wood, "launa" (gray clay), etc.. and several vineyards that give welcome shade during the summer. A little more isolated than the other houses, is located on top of the farm, surrounded by agricultural terraces still cultivated and next to a large chestnut. It has a large bedroom, living room with fireplace and sofa bed, kitchen (fridge freezer and all the basic equipment) and shower room. Cottage for 2-3 people.

días felices
Fuimos 14 personas entre amigos y familiares, con 6 hijos adolescentes y una pequeña de 5 años. 4 nucleos familiares en total, cada uno con su casita personal, así que cuando queríamos, podíamos tener cada uno nuestra intimidad. El lugar es una maravilla. Fuimos en fin de año, pero no pasamos nada de frío en casa porque además de chimenea en cada casa, hay calefacción, muchas mantas, camas comodas, silencio, tranquilidad y lo mejor de todo: Juan, encantador, siempre atento y cariñoso, nos traía huevos frescos por la mañana. Hicimos un par de barbacoas inolvidables y la verdad es que estaba a punto de no escribir esta reseña para que nadie se enterara de que existe un sitio así. Vamos a repetir seguro. Hasta pronto amigo. Enrico & Co.

Amazing stay at Juan’s place. Juan was a great host, always making sure we were happy without being at all intrusive. The location was amazing, the photos don’t do it justice! Pool gorgeous, all bedrooms comfortable and clean and the general property is stunning. Would stay again in a heartbeat!

Excelente San Juan
Nos ha encantado la estancia, ha estado muy tranquilo, el trato ha sido excelente e incluso nos dieron planos y mapas para realizar actividades de senderismo cerca de la casa. Repetiriamos sin duda. Observaciones: La zona de la piscina mejoraría mucho sin luz y asi por la noche podriamos estar. Pero en general muy bien.

Quedamos encantados!
Si eres una persona quisquillosa, marchosa, gamberra y amante del ruido y el desmadre POR FAVOR, NO VAYAS a este lugar, te vas a aburrir!! Pero, si amas la naturaleza, las vistas hermosas, la tranquilidad, la calidad de vida, el recogimiento y los entornos mágicos, tienes que ir al "Cortijo Buena vista". Es un lugar precioso, rústico y pintoresco. Fuimos 3 adultos y un niño de 7 años, la casita es tan bonita y bien equipada. El trato con el dueño genial, es una persona entrañable, muy amable y tranquilo. hay 11 gatos!!! =) y gallinitas y todo es genial. La chimenea muy práctica - fuimos para la nieve- te la pasas sentadito en lo calentito. El pueblo de Laroles está a un paso y puedes salir a dar paseos maravillándote de la tranquilidad. Te despiertas con el canto de los pájaros y los ruidos propios del campo. Por favor llévate un buen libro y disfruta =) El puerto de la Ragua está cerca y por la noche no pasas frío al contrario con los edredones tienes que sacar un pié para nivelar la temperatura jejejeje Quedamos con ganas de volver...

Unos dias perfectos
Estuvimos una semana en la Aula Naturaleza y la verdad es que se nos hizo corta. El alojamiento es senzillo pero no le falta de nada y es espacioso, con el jardin donde puedes comer debajo de la parra, la piscina, las vistas. El proprietario muy atento pero a la vez muy respectuoso. Laroles es un pueblo muy bonito, no es turistico pero no le falta de nada. Recomiendo este alojamiento para los que buscan tranquiladad y autenticidad!!! Algo para mejorar:las camas y cuchillos que corten.

En plena naturaleza: casa Aula de la Naturaleza.
Un lugar estupendo para escaparse por las Alpujarras más tranquilas. Los desayunos en plena naturaleza bajo el sol de primavera, no tienen precio y tampoco la tranquilidad y el canto de los pájaros. Mejorar algunos detalles como poner una barra para la ducha, renovar los colchones (aunque son aceptables) y recortar un poco la malecilla alrededor de la casa...mejorarían aún más una de por sí agradable estancia. No esperéis lujos, pero sí una relación calidad-precio maravillosa.

Fabuloso!
Hemos pasado una semana en el Cortijo Buena Vista, y hemos estado muy a gusto. La casa, esta en un entorno fantástico, entre naturaleza y tranquilidad, además tiene una piscina, donde pegarse un buen chapuzon, sobretodo en estos días de calor. Unas buenas razones, a tener en cuenta. El trato con Juan, el propietario, han sido muy correcto y muy cordial. Nos informó de actividades y de información de interés de la zona, con lo todo ha sido perfecto. La casa esta equipada con todo lo necesario. Sin duda, un lugar a tener en cuenta si buscais paz, lejos del ruido de la ciudad, y ganas de estar en contacto con la naturaleza. Repetiremos seguro!

Cortijo encantador
Un cortijo precioso en mitad de Sierra Nevada (parque nacional), parajes impresionantes, dueños maravillosos y compañia animal inigualable. Estuvimos una semana completa, relajados, disfrutando del entorno, lo único negativo que no está en las manos de los dueños, son las carreteras de las Alpujarras. Podéis ver fauna variada, como zorros, cabras montesas, sapos, cuidado con las vacas por la carretera, ... Respecto a la flora, muy cerca del cortijo tenemos un bosque de castaños donde se encuentra uno en especial que es milenario, entre gran variedad. Pasado el puerto de la Ragua (2000 m.) tenemos el pueblo de La Calahorra (no confundir con el de La Rioja) con un singular castillo renacentista. Abrazos a Juan, Encarni, Ángel, Boss y nuestros angelitos felinos.

nada malo
He visitado bastantes casa rurales. Pues bien, puedo decir que ésta lo reune todo. Magnífica relación calidad-precio, fácilmente accesible (nada de interminables caminos rurales), cercanía a un pueblecito alpujarreño, rutas senderistas, preciosas vistas ... la casa en sí, permite múltiples configuraciones según el nº de personas, con encanto rural típico ... ajuar, menaje, electrodómesticos ... ELECTRICIDAD Y CALEFACCIÓN (aunque parezca una tontería, no lo es). TOTALMENTE ACONSEJABLE

About the host

My hobbies are hiking and photography.
I have worked in tourism since 1977 and in rural tourism since 1989.

Why they chose this property

For the tranquility.
For the landscape.
Because they are authentic rural houses really rehabilitated (not new construction or a block of apartments).
For the excellent quality-price ratio.
Because all the houses have a fireplace and heating.
Because we are inside a Natural Park and next to the Sierra Nevada National Park.
In TopRural since 2000.
For the variety of trails and multiple activities that can be done.
Because we are 1 km from the town of Laroles by road where there are supermarkets, restaurants, bakeries, ...
Because access to houses is easy with parking at the foot of the road, without having to make tracks or mountain roads.

What makes this property unique
