Its lanes are steep and unhurried. Views run down the valley towards the Mediterranean, and the pace of the day is set by the village rather than by visitors.

Living in Canillas de Albaida

The homes that suit this landscape are country houses and villas on the surrounding hillsides, often with terraces, pools and long views, alongside restored village houses for those who prefer to live within the old streets.

Behind the village rise the Tejeda and Almijara mountains, protected as a natural park, so walking and silence are part of daily life. Cómpeta, Canillas de Aceituno and Frigiliana share the same scenery, while Nerja and Vélez-Málaga bring the coast within reach.
