Description of holiday finca in Benimeli, Costa Blanca / Alicante

Xaymaca is a stately 19th century residence, popularly known as “Aunt Genoveva’s house”, located on the edge of the small village of Benimeli, with façades overlooking both the village and the surrounding orange groves. After a lengthy and meticulous renovation, it has been converted into an stunning, self-catering holiday home, with a capacity for up to 8 people. Inaugurated in December 2004, this luxury rural accommodation covering 230m2, has ample spaces distributed on two floors. Xaymaca is the ideal place for holidays with family or groups of friends who share similar interests (walkers, cyclists, birdwatchers, golfers, sports enthusiasts, etc) or for those who simply wish to get away from it all and rediscover life’s simple pleasures.

Let us take you on a tour of this very special holiday retreat.

Massive old wooden doors lead from the house’s private parking lot into an open courtyard, formerly used as an oil mill, with stone walls and a Moorish style fountain surrounded by verdant and colourful plants and flowers, that welcome and soothe the travel-weary guest. Here, al fresco meals can be enjoyed in summer and winter around a large wooden table with magnificent views of the surrounding mountains.

Two blue-framed French doors lead us from the courtyard into a spacious and sunny living room, furnished with comfortable sofas, auxiliary tables and a wood-burning stove. At the far end of this room is the satellite TV, video /DVD and CD-radio player, as well as bookshelves filled with a wide selection of multilingual books, DVDs and board games for all ages and interests.

This living room leads into a rustic styled kitchen, with handmade glazed tiles and colourfully painted wooden cabinets, which has been fully equipped with state of the art kitchen equipment to satisfy the most demanding culinary needs.

From the kitchen, a large archway leads into a spacious open-plan area. This is divided into a cosy living room, whose modern fireplace creates a stunning feature against the backdrop of stonewalls, and a dining room with a large wooden table with seating for 8 people. A unique terracotta-clad pillar divides this area from the hallway where impressive wooden doors comprise another entrance to this magnificent house.

A discreet cloakroom is ensconced under the stairs that lead up to the first floor where the four bedrooms, each with ensuite bathroom are located. Two bedrooms have comfortable queen-size beds and share a secluded terrace overlooking the patio and mountains beyond. The other two bedrooms have comfortable twin beds and views of the village. All bedrooms are individually decorated and furnished to high standards with carefully selected bed and bath linen. The ample-sized bathrooms, decorated to each bedroom’s theme, are equipped with modern sanitary ware. Three bathrooms have large walk-in showers, while the fourth has a whirlpool bath.

Outside, from the courtyard, a stairway leads up to the fruit orchard and landscaped garden, where a large, private swimming pool (11 x 4m), that can be floodlit at night, will refresh you from summer’s heat. A covered porch, with outdoor furniture and the barbecue area, with everything necessary to prepare al fresco meals, complete this unique vacation retreat, which enjoys magnificent views over the valley and surrounding mountains.

Sunbathe in the garden, relax or read under shady trees, pick fruits from the orchard, or simply contemplate the scenery or the stars by night; all this and much more offers you Xaymaca, a haven of peace and tranquillity.

Any time of year is ideal for visiting us; in February when the almonds trees are in flower; in March and April when the entire valley is filled with the scent of orange blossom; in May when the cherry trees are in bloom; in summer, to enjoy the sunny weather, the swimming pool, beaches or fiestas; in Autumn for walks along mountain trails or in the woods; harvesting grapes, almonds and olives; and in winter when fresh oranges and tangerines can be picked from our own orchard, or to sit by the fireplace reading or listening to music. Xaymaca has it all – come and visit us!.
