the stay was successful, simplicity in checking in and out. Super location. The property is very nice, a little however neglected. With the improvement of some details it could be an exemplary place for a holiday stay.
I wish I have never booked this villa, location is good , but it’s not clean , when we enter in the villa it’s smell so bad , feel like it’s never been opened , dust everywhere which was not good for kids. Living room furniture in need upgrades, very less space in living room but in the pics it’s looks bigger. Pool was clean . Out door sitting was ok but because of mosquitos can’t sit outside for long , even outside fan doesn’t work . Biggest problem is there Air conditioner, if you want to use it you have to pay €1 for every 20 mins , how someone can keep going to put coin in for use of Air Conditioner , In hot weather should not book this villa because there is no AC. I never heard before this I have to pay for AC extra if I want to use , I can even understand if u pay €5 and last at least 4 to 5 hrs . But can keep going to put coin in every 20 minutes, Really bad .
The house is Nice if they would clean it better We had to put all the plates and cutlery and cups in The dishwaser si dirty they were. We could not use the frying pans, they were awfully dirty just to trow them away. Cupboards where dusty so we had to clean them. Thére were cockroach gunning around. The tiles a round of The pool also need to be cleaned . The pool on himself very clean and well Looked after. The garden is ok ifthey would clean The birds shut. After all we had a Nice stay.
We chose this villa as we wanted a private pool for a relaxing week and in that sense it was perfect. The outdoor area is really good with shaded areas (especially the Tiki Bar/pergola) and the pool was clean and a good size. We also used the BBQ which worked really well. Inside it was spacious but we didn’t spend much time there beyond sleeping. 10 min walk to the beach and some lovely bars was a great option. Would also recommend hiring a car as we used it to explore nearby, such as Puerto Banus, Marbella, etc. I’ve read comments about the cleanliness of the Villa and whilst it wasn’t perfect and perhaps needs a bit of a facelift in places, this was not an issue for us and everything did work. Agree it would be great to have a second fridge just for drinks but it wasn’t a massive issue for us (although we were only 5 adults). My 2 observations are that it would be good to have an outdoor shower by the pool and clearer communication/documentation about needing coins for the aircon and fire sticks for the TVs, if you want to use them (again not a massive issue for us as we spent evenings outside playing cards). When I did contact the owner response time was always quick which was great. Overall we were very happy with our stay and had a great week.
Upon arrival we were able to leave our luggage in the garden and visit the beach whilst the property was being prepared, we were told that we could not use the pool until the following day as it needed to be cleaned, this was a huge disappointment the response from the owner was substandard Some parts of the property are dated and the cleanliness on face value was good however when items were moved thick dust lay beneath, a deep clean is needed The fridge is not big enough there is one operational ac unit in one bedroom in the other 2 it’s operated by €1 coins it lasts 20 minutes and is woefully poor, so much so we did not use it, there is no air con in communal areas. The tap in one of the bathrooms was covered in some scum that made it look unclean, the pool tiles clearly had not been cleaned fir some time displaying a visible off putting scum mark (my husband actually cleaned them as it was so dirty) the tiki bar is great in the evenings. The outside area is not big enough for 8 people to sunbathe, there is an old car parked inside the grounds which takes away from the property, sun beds were piled up covered in dust and dirt, more attention to detail is needed
Great location and having the little tiki bar area to watch tv in the evening as the little ones slept was a god send. Karen is very helpful and would highly recommend
Comfortable and quiet
Fantastic quiet location, complete privacy and secluded due to surrounding trees/bushes. There are a few decent restaurants nearby, but Marbella is also nearby by a reasonably priced Uber. The accommodation is well equipped with all you might need, my only recommendation would be to be equipped with 1 Euro coins for the air-con, which in august is a necessity. The pool area is fantastic & the Tikki bar provides a great area to chill with a drink. While a car is not a necessity There is a great supermarket within 5-10 minutes walk. The host was very helpful and responded to my questions almost immediately and check in was easy, even the service people who turned up to clean the gardens and pool and the final check out were very friendly This place has raised the bar & I would certainly stay there again. .
This is a very good villa with a fabulous sized pool and outside space in a quiet and well established residential area comprising mainly high quality, detached, villas . Our only criticisms would be that although there are beds for 8 people it might be a tad 'crowded' for 8 adults. But it is, in our view, a very comfortable villa for up to 6 adults with very good aircon in the 3 double bedrooms but none in the living areas or bedroom 4 (this did not bother us as we spent almost all our 'day time and evenings' outside or away exploring the area. We also felt that the fridge and freezer space was a little bit on the tight side for keeping enough soft drinks, beers and wines cold ( as well as the food we bought) but we were pleased to find bags of ice in plentiful supply at the local Carrefour Supermarket. The villa is very well equipped with crockery, cutlery, glasses, and everything you need for self catering (dishwasher too). The beds are very comfortable and the bathrooms and showers are good with good towels supplied ( and pool towels as well). The washing machine and drying lines (at the rear of the villa) were very useful and worked perfectly. The Carrefour is a great little supermarket (5-10 minute walk) and met almost all of our needs and has a great recycling facility close by. We also used the Lidl (3-4 km away toward Fuengirola on the main N-340) for larger quantities of cans of drinks, wine and beer and a bigger variety of other food. The local sandy beach is excellent with lots of bars, eateries and water activities all along the front. Marbella is a short drive a way as are Puerto Banus and Fuengirola (great crazy golf course with a good bar and eatery). All in all we had a fabulous holiday and would come back without hesitation.
Villa was perfect inside and out. The pool and outside seating areas (especially the tiki barn) were enjoyed by us all and the location was ideal. We didn’t hire a car as we could walk to the shops, restaurants,beach and for day trips to Marbella, it was so easy to get an Uber. The owners were very helpful from the initial booking, providing us with details for airport transfers and as our return flight was late in the evening looked after our luggage so we could make the most of our last day and visit puerto banus. The villa and location were both exceptional and made a very happy holiday. Thank you.
Very nice villa. Had everything we needed. There were 3 of us (all around 50). We played golf a couple of days and spent the rest of the time by the pool. Villa was well equipped and the beds were very comfy. Area very quiet, just what we wanted. Perfect. Thank you.
