Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa sits in a quiet cul-de-sac in Monte de los Almendros, a residential area on the hills above Salobreña. The setting is rural and peaceful, with the coast about 3.7 km away as the crow flies. A supermarket is 3.3 km distant and a pharmacy 53 metres. The nearest airport is 81 km away, and a car is necessary for daily travel.
The house offers 334 m² across three levels: a lower floor with open-plan living, a kitchen, a bedroom and a bathroom with sauna; a main floor with two bedrooms, one en-suite; and a tower room currently used as an office. Outside there is a private pool, a pergola, a mature garden with fruit trees, a garage and extra parking.
This is an existing home, completed in 1988, not a new-build project. The property is described as being in good condition and is key-ready, meaning it can be occupied directly after purchase. The completion date is indicative and based on the seller's documentation.
The property does not offer new-build guarantees or a developer's delivery schedule. A car is required for daily mobility. The nearest hospital is 44 km away and golf courses are 79 km or more from the house. The villa has air conditioning installed, but no further technical certifications are stated in the available data.

This villa fits a buyer seeking an existing, characterful home on the Costa Tropical rather than a new-build apartment. Households that benefit most from the layout are those needing flexible space: the near-independent lower level works for guests, older children or a live-in relative, while the tower room suits remote workers who want a separate office with a view. It also suits buyers who accept car-based daily life. The supermarket is 3.3 km away as the crow flies and the beach 3.7 km, so cycling or driving is part of the routine. Buyers who want to walk to restaurants and shops every day would find the location less practical. The property is relevant for permanent residence, a second home, or rental use, given the four bedrooms and separate lower floor. Buyers should note the distances involved: the airport is 81 km away and the nearest hospital 44 km, which matters for those who travel frequently or have specific medical needs. For buyers prioritising golf, the nearest course is 79 km distant, which rules out a golf-walking lifestyle.
The villa was completed in 1988 to a design by architect Kuntz, and its construction follows the natural contours of the plot across three levels. The condition is recorded as good. The architecture is distinctive for its multi-level layout and tower, rather than for a uniform modern finish, so buyers should expect a house with period character alongside contemporary updates. Climate control is present: air conditioning is installed, with both hot and cold functions and additional pre-installation, allowing further extension of the system. The bathroom on the lower level includes a private sauna, and photographic material shows a modern wooden sauna, a functional home office with built-in shelving, and an open living area with kitchen. The orientation is south-east, which in this region means direct sun through the morning and early afternoon, with shade later in the day on the terraces. Practical outdoor infrastructure includes a swimming pool with sun terrace, a pergola-covered lounge area, a secure garage and additional private parking on the 841 m² plot. As with any home of this age, buyers are advised to commission a technical survey to assess insulation, electrics and plumbing independently.
The asking price for Villa Summer Winds is a fixed €895,000. This is an existing home with a single asking price, not a new-build price list, so no unit variations or from-prices apply. The price reflects a property of 334 m² of living space on an 841 m² plot with a private pool, garage and additional private parking, in the Monte de los Almendros area of Salobreña. The house is key-ready, so no construction phase or waiting period applies. Availability depends on the current negotiation status with the seller. Purchase costs such as transfer tax, notary fees and registry fees are additional and are not included in the asking price.
Daily life at Villa Summer Winds revolves around its layered layout and the way the house follows the slope of Monte de los Almendros. The lower level functions almost as a self-contained unit, with an open-plan lounge and kitchen, a bedroom and a bathroom with a private sauna, opening directly onto the pool terrace. This arrangement suits households that want space for guests or independent family members without sharing the main living floor. The main floor is where most of the day is spent. The kitchen and living room connect openly, and large windows face the Mediterranean to the south-east, giving morning and midday light on the terrace. Two bedrooms sit on this level, one with an en-suite bathroom, both with direct access to the outdoors. At the top, the tower room serves as an office with a balcony overlooking the coastline; it could also function as a fourth bedroom or studio. The rhythm of the day is shaped by the outdoor spaces: the pool terrace, the shaded lounge beneath the pergola and a garden with mango, fig and lemon trees. The pharmacy within walking distance covers minor daily needs, while grocery shopping involves a drive of roughly 3.3 km. Evenings tend to be quiet, as the cul-de-sac location and the residential character of the area keep traffic to a minimum.
Monte de los Almendros is a residential urbanisation on the elevated ground above Salobreña, and the villa's cul-de-sac position adds to the quiet. The surroundings are described as rural and tranquil, with almond groves and scattered villas rather than dense tourist development. For daily needs, a pharmacy lies 53 metres from the property and a supermarket 3.3 km away as the crow flies, so a short drive covers grocery shopping. The beaches of the Costa Tropical are close in regional terms: Playa Granada at 3.7 km, Playa Can at 5.4 km and Playa del Curumbico at 5.7 km, all straight-line distances that translate into a drive of a few minutes. An electric vehicle charging point is 3.1 km away, which is relevant for EV owners. The nearest hospital is 44 km distant, which typically means Motril or the Granada area for specialised care. These distances define the practical picture: the location rewards residents who value privacy and views, and who plan their errands by car.
The map shows the villa's position in Monte de los Almendros above Salobreña, between the historic town and the coast. Beaches lie 3.7 to 5.7 km away as the crow flies, the pharmacy sits at the entrance of the urbanisation, and the A-7 motorway connects the area west towards Málaga and east towards Almería.

Salobreña sits on the Costa Tropical in the province of Granada, roughly an hour's drive east of Málaga along the A-7. The town combines a historic hilltop centre with a coastal strip of beach suburbs, and Monte de los Almendros occupies the raised ground between the two. Compared with the Costa del Sol further west, the area is less developed and less touristy, with a more Spanish residential character. Distances to golf, airport and hospital reflect that quieter position, while the beaches and town remain close by car.
Accessibility is structured around the car. The nearest beach, Playa Granada, lies 3.7 km away in a straight line; Playa Can and Playa del Curumbico are 5.4 km and 5.7 km respectively. Salobreña's town centre and its shops are within short driving distance, while the supermarket 3.3 km away handles most daily shopping. The pharmacy at 53 metres is the only amenity genuinely within walking distance. For longer journeys, the airport is 81 km away as the crow flies, which typically means Málaga Airport via the A-7 coastal motorway; travel time depends on traffic but should be planned as a substantial drive. Golf courses lie at 79 to 84 km (Club de Golf Málaga Parador, Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez and Club de Golf de Guadalhorce), which places golf effectively beyond daily reach. Public transport options in the immediate area are limited, and the location data explicitly states that a car is necessary for daily mobility.
Salobreña lies on the Costa Tropical, the stretch of Granada's coast known for one of the mildest climates in Spain, sheltered by the nearby mountains from northern weather systems. The villa's position on the hillside above town gives it elevation and views over the Mediterranean, the mountains and the historic Moorish castle. The south-easterly orientation provides morning and midday sun on the terraces, with the pergola offering shade for the warmer hours. The multi-level layout follows the slope of the land, which means steps and level changes inside the house and in the garden, a practical consideration for buyers with limited mobility. The subtropical climate supports the garden's fruit trees, including mango, fig and lemon, which thrive in this microclimate. Winters are short and mild, making outdoor use of the pool and terraces feasible for much of the year, although pool heating is not mentioned in the data.

The nearest beaches are Playa Granada (3.7 km), Playa Can (5.4 km) and Playa del Curumbico (5.7 km), all straight-line distances. The Costa Tropical around Salobreña offers a mix of sandy coves and pebbly stretches, generally quieter than the beaches further west. The driving distance to the coast is short, making a morning swim or an evening walk on the shore a realistic routine. Golf is a different matter: the nearest courses are 79 to 84 km away near Málaga, so regular golfers should factor in long drives or consider the location unsuitable for that purpose. Recreation closer to home centres on the property itself, the private pool, the pergola lounge and the garden with fruit trees, and on the walking possibilities of the hillside urbanisation. The historic centre of Salobreña, with its castle and old-town streets, provides cultural outings, while the data also lists proximity to skiing (the Sierra Nevada), port and marina facilities as features of the wider region.

Within Salobreña and the wider Costa Tropical, Villa Summer Winds occupies a specific niche: an architect-designed detached villa on a hillside plot, as opposed to the apartments that dominate the beachfront zones of Playa Granada and Salobreña's coastal strip. Buyers comparing options in the town will typically find new-build or recent apartments closer to the sea at lower price points, but with shared pools, less privacy and no garden. Detached villas with plots of over 800 m² in the Monte de los Almendros urbanisation are a scarcer category, and the multi-level Kuntz design with its tower room distinguishes this property from more conventional villa layouts in the same area. Set against the Costa del Sol to the west, the trade-offs become clearer. Around Marbella, Estepona or Mijas, a comparable detached villa with pool and views generally commands a higher price, but the buyer also gets golf courses, international schools and hospital facilities within a short drive. On the Costa Tropical those amenities are further away, the nearest golf is 79 km and the nearest hospital 44 km, while the compensation is a quieter, more Spanish environment, lower density and a milder subtropical climate that supports gardens with mango and fig trees. East of Salobreña, towards Almuñécar and La Herradura, the market is similar in character: established villas, hillside urbanisations and limited new-build supply. For buyers whose priority is space, privacy and panoramic views rather than walkable tourist infrastructure, this segment of the Granada coast offers more square metre per euro than the Costa del Sol core. For buyers who want frequent flights, golf weekends or a large expat service network within reach, locations further west remain more practical. Villa Summer Winds sits clearly in the first category, priced as a single existing home at €895,000 rather than as part of a phased development.
