“Multi-generation family holiday”

Reviewed 14 Nov 2018

A perfect villa in a rural location (car essential, although Pedro on hand to offer taxi service if required). Access to the beach and restaurants in Ahlos de Agua is doable on foot, but is a good 15 minute walk and not suitable for the unfit! You could not ask for a more well appointed villa. Everything mentioned in the details was there and in pristine condition - we were truly wowed! The villa itself and the grounds are extremely well maintained and are huge. It is set on multi levels with steps and has an undulating cobbled driveway. The pool is gated - great for young families. The indoor and outdoor kitchens are well equipped for self catering with a large party. The views from the villa are stunning. You feel very safe and secure in the gated property. You can walk to the beautiful beach, it is a good 15 minute walk down hill. If you drive, parking is limited. In all honesty you wouldn't want the beach in the summer with such a perfect villa! The underfloor heating in some parts of the villa was very welcome in the cool evenings. Definitely advisable to pay for the jacuzzi heating in the cooler months, we used it every day and it was lovely. However, the pool heating is not worth paying for in winter. The villa management team are brilliant, they always answer questions promptly. We had a fantastic holiday with ages ranging from 14-76 - there was something for everyone. Thank you all

“Fantastic”

Reviewed 1 Oct 2018

We stayed in the villa for 1 week. There was 8 adults. Plenty of room for us all and great facilities. Pedro was at the airport to meet us..... What a character. He is full of knowledge and always happy to help. We used the minibus throughout the holiday and was a fantastic asset. The villa has everything you will need and if there are any issues or questions Helen or Pedro are just a phone call away. We were sad to leave and im sure we will be back
