    WOW!!! - no other words describe it. With hectic lives we always look for peace and quiet to recharge and Villa Zalia delivered that in buckets. The villa is stunning. Open plan living with everything you need for a great trip. The beds are very comfortable and the bathroom facilities are very nice indeed. The outside areas are amazing with a stunning pool. The photographs do not do the views justice at all - absolutley breath taking!!! Your are isolated which was perfect for us. No dogs barking, traffic noise, nothing. The wifi was great if you want to remain connected to the matrix. We cannot fault the villa or location at all. Absolutely perfect. Frank supports the villa and it was great to have an insight into the local area and have him on hand for advice. thank you Frank. We used Helle Hellios car rental as recommened by the owner and they were infact the cheapest despite the owners discount. We had a VW Polo which was more than enough to get two of us around. HH will recommed a bigger car as the location is in a mountanous area but the VW was fine. I would go for an automatic what ever you decide upon. The roads are not for the faint hearted once you get to Alcaucin but just take you time. There is an Eroski supermarket on route. Stock up thier on the way as its a 15/20 drive each time. Our experience was perfect in everyway. Thank you Villa Zalia

    The villa is located in the mountains and is extremely private and remote. The villa is well equipped and Frank is an excellent house manager, nothing is too much trouble. The views are amazing across the valley. The kitchen and lounge area are spacious and the bedrooms very comfortable with good linen and king size beds. I would advise renting a 4x4 to get to the villa as the last section is on unmade roads and very set to hills with a drop either side. Nothing is particularly close which is the charm of this place so stock up at Eroski hyper market before you get there. We would definitely come again.

    The villa is great, lot of attention to detail, if you would like to rest or disconnect this is your place.Being on the top of a mountain means that you will need to drive up, access is ok but on windy gravel roads, as a improvement note instructions on how to get there are missing on the welcome pack. Big thanks to Frank for his warm welcome and being so nice and always available.

    Beautiful property with much love and thought put into the design. Stunning position atop a hill allowing 360 degree views and optimum sunlight throughout the day. With a minamilist design profile the house lends itself to accentuate the beautiful surroundings.

    We really enjoyed our stay at this nice and beautiful villa with a breathtaking view. The villa was well equipped and we had everything we needed. Be sure to rent a car that can manage steep slopes to the house, and I recommend that the car is driven by en experienced driver.

    Not sure where to start as the villa is amazing, great views, all amenities you will need, pool is great, comfy beds and all the small things you need in the kitchen for when you get there. Tea, sugar, coffee, bags of ice, olive oil....etc. To score the property it can only be a 10/10, and the bonus that local manager lives very close and is so helpful. 4x4 or SUV is needed TBH, as the roads are more like tracks once you leave the main roads, but nothing to worry about once you get use to them. Would we stay again, easily a Yes!

    Perfect place to disconnect and read lots and lots of books. If you are into spending your nights looking at our solar system it's also a great spot.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the villa with our two children in August. It was tastefully decorated with all our requirements met - cot, high chair, washing machine etc. The setting of the villa is stunning - completely private, peaceful in beautiful surroundings but enough activity within reach for day trips. The house welcome pack was extremely comprehensive as was the correspondence with the host. We loved the pool and our kids spent hours in there each day. The only slight drawback were the wasps around the pool but I’m sure this could be easily remedied. Overall a fantastic stay and highly recommendable.

    The house is very nice and exactly as seen on the images. Its a really nice place to stay for some days apart. The garden is colorfull and nice to stay in. The other houses on the hill are far enought to have silence and privacy. What could be improved is the advice, that a 4Wheel Vehicel would be a plus to reach the house. There are party gravel roads, which are not ideal for any car. Further the Map delivered with the documentation could be improved, we had a while to find the right way. Last but not least, a coffe maschine would also be on our wishlist for a futre stay.

    Very good stay....But the swimming pool was always really cold... We agree that it's in the mountain and May a little bit early...but if we consider the price of one week, it is certainly possible to help It to be warm... The second time in Zalia and we never enjoyed the swimming pool... So for us, only four stars and a half! ? For sure, we will come again! Everything is perfect....calm, magical place and house.
