Recommendations for private villa with pool, anywhere southern Spain.

I neeeeeed to plan something. Hopefully for Easter, maybe early summer. We will drive across from Santander.
We are a family of 6, four kids between preschool and teen. A villa with a pool somewhere beautiful. I don’t want built up, touristy hotel places. Somewhere with a beach not to far and mountain views...the kids all like this too.
I don’t know Spain, we tend to do the other side of Europe, so I don’t have a clue. Was thinking maybe Andalusia somewhere, but completely flexible. We will break the journey to and from ferry so distance not a problem.
Budget up to £2000 for week at Easter. Ideally less though!
Please don’t say I’m just being stupid booking a holiday now. Even if we end up moving our dates I really would love to have a plan at least....

Also, will it be warm enough to swim at Easter, or is it too early??

We use villa plus every year. You can filter for heated pools.
We stayed in Portugal early May a few years ago, needed jacket or cardigan and jeans in the evening but sunbathed and swam in the day

All villa plus properties come with pool and ping pong table too

Zahara de los Atunes
El Palmar
On the beautiful Costa de la Luz Atlantic side. Hardly any UK package tourism.
Tarifa though can be windy. Great food beaches, mountains and white villages nearby as is beautiful old city of Cadiz.
La Alcaidesa, on the Med side.
