Welcome

Canillas de Aceituno is one of the most picturesque and spectacularly located villages in the Axarquia region of southern Spain. Nestling in the foothills of the Sierra Tejeda mountains and dominated by the majestic backdrop of the highest peak, La Maroma, which rises to a height of over 2,000 metres, the setting is one of incomparable beauty.

The village, which is on the perimeter of the Sierra Tejeda Wildlife Reserve, is easy to reach from the coast and is less than one hour´s driving time from Malaga´s international airport. There is an endless list of attractions for holidays or permanent living here.

Exotic fruits such as avocado, mango and chirimoya thrive in the mild climate, the only area in the European mainland where these tropical fruits are cultivated commercially.

Mountaineering and cycling enthusiasts can enjoy the treats in store for them while nature lovers can take to the paths which lead to well known beauty spots right in the heart of the National Park. They will probably spot golden eagles in flight or see wild mountain goats on the wooded slopes. Painters and photographers will find much to inspire them here.

We have two properties available for rent in this beautiful area; a detached villa with own secluded swimming pool, a village house  located in a quiet sunny street in the southern part of town, walking distance of the shops and bars.
