The feel

Totalán is a quiet village in the hills above the eastern coast, close to Málaga but far enough to feel rural. It has a church, a few bars and a landscape of olives, almonds and small plots. The coast at Rincón de la Victoria is a short drive, making it a practical base for city, sea and country.

Why consider it

Close to Málaga and the coast
A quiet, rural village
More space and value than the coast

The property
