Ideal For Families, Large Pool, Sea Views, 400m: Sandy Beach, Sleeps 8 Plus Baby

Great location, nice view, comfy big old house, responsive and kind Landlord. Would happily recommend

We had a wonderful time here! The place was clean, tidy, and located in a friendly neighborhood. Everything was close by, including the store and the beach

We really enjoyed our stay at the villa, the villa could do with a bit of modernising (but who's house couldn't). The kitchen has everything you need and more. The bedrooms are big and the A/C is a godsend in the bedrooms. The pool area is amazing and many an hour was spent lounging around the pool. The pool is deep so if you have younger children you will need to keep an eye on them, the shallow end is about 4ft I would say and the deep end easily 7ft. The local supermarket is 1k away and easy to get to and from although I would highly recommend hiring a car as taxi's are very expensive. The bus service is decent but last buses run at 23.00 (ish) which means you have to come back early. The local restaurant Triana is excellent and we walked along the beach to Capopina (25 min), where there are some other lovely restaurants and views. if the tide is low then its no problems but if its high tide there will be a little bit of paddling involved. Jan was a great host, we had one issue with an AC unit which was fixed really quickly. So all in all I would highly recommend the villa for a relaxing break with family/friends.

La Mirada is located in Carib Playa in Marbesa. The villa is quite old and sprawling with many ways to go outside. She could do with a lick of paint inside and out and the electrics in the kitchen need attention. No point listing a Gaggia coffee machine if it doesn’t work because the only power socket in the kitchen is faulty and it has broken the machine. The bed pillows have seen better days as have the duvets. They really need replacing. The curtains could do with cleaning and re-hanging as most were not connected to the curtain pole properly. The kitchen is good. It has fairly new appliances and a very good dishwasher. To leave the villa, one must go through a pretty vigorous routine with shutters, gates and lengths of wood. I won’t go into detail but the owner needs to spend some money on replacing the patio door lock mechanisms in the lounge area. The outside area is lovely. The pool too, but be aware if you have small children as the shallow end is about 5 feet deep. As with most Mediterranean gardens at the time of year we visited, the plants are starting to shed and their close proximity to the pool, means you need to get the pool net out most mornings although Yan comes every Wednesday to tend the garden and clean the pool. I find netting the pool very relaxing anyway so it never bothers me. Andy’s beach is a little too far to walk during the heat of the day across the dunes and at night it is easier to get a taxi to the marina. We would visit again.

Nice Pool area and a very nice and Green garden. In the kitchen you find everything . Quiet area and a nice Restaurant in walking distance.

The Villa was superbly appointed and had everything our family (there were 6 adults) could possibly wish for.It is in a lovely location- a short walk from the beach- but we only went there once because the pool area is so good. All the rooms are tastefully decorated and the showers are fantastic. We will definitely be visiting again. Can't wait!!
