The 3 Cuevas Los Coloraos were built with exceptional care, taste and creativity. Their design blends traditional character with modern comfort. The walls are very thick, providing excellent insolation. Most of the floors are finished with a finely polished concrete, which is a quality finish, traditional in this region. The caves were designed to let in natural light. All of the patios are fully enclosed. The houses are equipped with amenities for holiday rentals.
These cave houses offer a peaceful getaway, with spectacular views of the valley, planted with olive trees, and the surrounding mountains. There are views of the countryside and mountains from wherever you are on the property. From the highest point the view is 360°.
Cueva la residencia is the largest of the 3 houses. The spacious private patio is designed for relaxing in sun or shade, or for dining al fresco. There is a driveway for parking.
There is a living room, dining room, a kitchen, 3 bedrooms, a bathroom and a utility/storage room. Next to the living room is a fireplace. The upstairs bedroom is outbuilt and has air conditioning/heating.
The interior design matches the natural cave design organically, with charming niches carved into the rock and nicely incorporated details. Features include a stone wall in the kitchen and a skylight above the staircase.
Cueva el bandito and cueva la cuadra each have a private front patio with stone inlaid floors, built-in plunge pools, benches and planters. There are portable wood burning stoves to heat the plunge pools, offering a cozy, blissful outdoor experience. Cueva La Cuadra also has a pergola. Each cave has a back terrace with views. Private parking is in front of the caves.
Cueva el bandido has an eat-in kitchen, bathroom, living room, two double bedrooms and a private back terrace. The kitchen is outbuilt and has an air conditioning / heating unit. This cave sleeps 4 guests.
Cueva la cuadra has a galley kitchen, dining room, two double bedrooms, two single bedrooms, bathroom, and a beautiful, relaxing living room that opens to the back patio with views of the village. This cave sleeps 6 guests.
The unreformed caves are situated behind the main house and can be reformed to make 5 additional holiday homes with patios, walking paths and a swimming pool. The plans for this transformation have already been drawn up by an architect and approved by town hall.
This complex could be a unique and stunning retreat center for yoga, meditation, writers, artists, family gatherings, or anyone looking for a peaceful, healthy getaway connected to nature.
The region
Cuevas Los Coloraos is situated on the outskirts of villanueva de las torres, a small, quiet village with basic shops, a couple of simple bar/restaurants, a pharmacy, bank and medical office. Village amenities are within walking distance. Villanueva de las Torres is located 79 km (47 miles) northeast of the historic City of Granada.
The property faces the gorafe and los coloraos desert mountains and gor canyons s. These stunningly beautiful mountains and canyons form a dramatic landscape of rock formations, similar to those found in the Grand Canyon (minus the crowds!). This incredible geology attacts nature lovers, hikers, mountain bikers, hang gliders and 4x4 enthusiasts.
The first communities of prehistoric humans on the Iberian Peninsula lived in this area and the land is peppered with ancient dolmens. The neighboring village of Gorafe has been declared a geosite and is home to the Gorafe Megalithic Center.
Nine kilometres (5.6 miles) from Cuevas Los Coloraos is the Alicún de las Torres Balneario thermal spa, with indoor and outdoor hot springs pools.
The region was declared a unesco geopark in 2020 and has been receiving more visitors every year.
