Perfect location. Lovely villa. Excellent Host.
Communication with the host was easy and efficient. The villa itself is absolutely stunning. Spacious, clean, brilliant for large groups. Lots of reception areas indoor and out. Bedrooms on both floors which was really helpful for members of our party with wheelchairs. Short walk from the beach. Real treat having the private pool. Assistance from hosts during the stay was friendly and swift. Would definitely return - planning our next holiday as we speak.

Beach Villa
Our recent stay at the Beach Villa was for a large family holiday and the size of the villa did not disappoint with plenty of rooms on offer. We were warmly welcomed at the villa on our arrival. The main bedroom with en-suite was a great size and nicely decorated and had a bath which is not often available abroad! The kitchen is spacious and plenty of space and fridges to cater for a party of 13. The added bonus of a washing machine with washing detergent was amazing and great to go home with less washing! The location is superb in that the beach is a minute walk away and has some nice restaurants nearby. The location is great in that you don’t need a car and a five - ten minute walk to the supermarket and bars but there are electric scooters to hire which make it a lot easier and cost a couple of euros on the Hoppy app. This is a great villa for a large family and Dave was very responsive to our needs and dealt with our enquiries swiftly. Thanks for creating some happy family memories.

Week from 22 July 2023
Superbly situated property for both young and old. The group ranged from under 2 to 85 yrs old and with the location it was easy to get to the beach and nearby sea front restaurants, or plenty of space around the villa for quiet if you wished. Would recommend a car to get to the shops especially for a large group. On a personal note I would like to thank Dave and especially Alex for all his help when it was most needed THANK YOU

We want to go back already!
We had a lovely stay at the villa! It was in a brilliant location - really close to the beach and It was perfect for us, with plenty of restaurants and bars nearby so we didn’t have to drive if we didn’t want to. The villa was a lot bigger than we expected and David was great at answering our questions and Janet was lovely and informative on arrival! We’d recommend staying and the villa and look forward to returning!

Fantastic Villa
Fantastic Villa in an ideal location for the beach. A little bit of a walk up hill to main bars and restaurants but not an issue. The place was spotless and well managed and the owner was easy to contact and responded in a timely manner. Not that we had any issues to contact him. He was especially helpful in this Covid ravaged year. Thank you from us nad if he has we will be back next year.

highly recomeended
going to start by praising the owner David for his great communication and understanding given the covid situation and a lot of last minute changes to our group, he really couldn't have been more helpful. The house is fantastic and provides everything as advertised and there are signs of constantly ongoing improvements when the property is compared to the pictures on line. The real Jewel is the pool - brilliant size for a private pool plenty of space for the 6 over-sized lilos we had and room others to still get in - we even rigged up a net for water volleyball 4 v 4 and half the pool was still empty! The beach is is only about a minute walk away and the area is so safe we happily let the kids (12 and older) have free reign between the beach and the pool as they wanted. Both the sea and the pool were just the right temperature when we were there but it was August and over 30 degrees. Had some great food both along the beach and up the hill in Cabo Riog, really big portions and very reasonable prices. Hard to comment on the area due to covid making everything very different to normal, but it seemed like a really nice area with something for everyone. Already booked again for next year, hopefully with out all the restrictions giving us an even better time - only been back home 3 days and counting the days till we return.

Fabulous Villa
Cannot fault the place from start to finish. Communication from the owner was excellent from booking all the way through. Keyholder was also on hand if needed and was quick to respond to any enquiries. Villa is huge with lots of separate areas for sitting and lounging around. Large pool with plenty sunbeds and towels. Short walk along the sea front to Cabo Roig and even shorter walk to the beach. Cannot recommend this villa highly enough. Will definitely book again next time we are in the area golfing.

Lovely villa, lovely owner and staff. Only reason I’ve given a middle rating for location is the biblical storm that we had. The water was thigh high in our road and we lost water for 24 hrs because of burst pipes (I assume). The beach area was devastated and roads collapsed. Didn’t spoil things too much for us though. Mother Nature can be a b***h.

Family holiday
This is an amazing villa with a great location. It has literally everything you would need from beach towels to pumps for the inflatables. 5 minutes away from the beach should you get bored with the swimming pool! Cosmetically there are a few things that would be an improvement and a little TLC as well - it’s just a bit tired that’s all, but excellent value for money! We all loved it !

Hi Janet,Thanks for your review,we are glad you had a good time,we continually update and redecorate the house but with back to back bookings all the way from April it is difficult to give walls a coat of paint or repair anything if the guests do not tell us of the problem.Every September and March we fully renovate the house and will continue to do so.

Big House
Just returned from a week in the villa, overall we really enjoyed our stay. The pool is lovely, the house is tired looking and the interior needs a bit of a tidy up, the previous visitors had left late which l am assuming was the reason the cleanliness was not up to scratch. A couple of the matresses need replacing as they were a bit thin. We arrived early but we were allowed to store our luggage at the villa until 3pm when we were allowed in, which was really good. The beach is just down the road and it is a lovely beach everything you need is in the villa.

I scratch my head sometimes with these reviews!I always follow up with an email to see if the guests had a good time,this was this guests reply to me "We had a lovely time thank you, wish we had another week, the children loved the pool and came away a lot more confident in the water, only one little negative the oven was not clean, other than that all was good 😊"We also do not take a deposit and these particular guests damaged quite a few things which is perhaps why their email was covering their back,who knows?We continually improve and decorate the villa and I am not quite sure how the reviewer knew that 2 beds were as in her words quite thin unless she bed hops!So in summary we think like the majority of these reviews that the villa is lovely,the cleaning we have found is excellent but unfortunately because we have large parties in the villa all year around there will always be some damage or dirty fingerprints which sometimes may not get picked up with same day changeovers.

Lovely villa. Perfect family holiday
As a family of 16, ageing from 2 -60 this was the perfect villa for us. 10 adults and 6 children. Plenty of space so we were not on top of each other. Master bedroom and en-suite was great. Bed was the comfiest I’ve ever slept in. Very spacious and cool room with a small balcony/ terrace leading onto outside patio area. Kitchen extremely well equipped and big, everything we needed and more. Including washer, dryer, iron & ironing board. 2 fridge freezers and under counter fridge. All other bedrooms and bathrooms were perfect for us. 2 travel cots. Living room great. Not used much as so much space everywhere else. Dining room with extra large table and chairs. Upper terrace lovely at any time of day, as it gets the sun all day (Sun trap. My favourite place) Outside space.... huge!! Under terrace with seating and sofa (also toilet plus 2 shower rooms and utility room) leading up to patio area with built in bbq, tables and chairs. At least 9 sun beds (all in good condition) round the pool with plenty of room for us all to get around. Sun on pool all day with one shaded side. Pool big enough for all of us to be in at the same time. Out side shower. Not a lot of games/ dvds but cheap enough from shops €2 for dominos/ cards (probably been packed and taken home by mistake!) All in all amazing fantastic perfect villa. Great communication from David the owner. Answered any questions we had and also advised on transfers. El was waiting for us on arrival and was very helpful and informative. Beautiful Beach 2 min walk away. Consum supermarket up a steep hill, ok for a walk but at the height of the day a taxi is better about €5. There is a Pharmacy and then onto the strip with numerous bars/restaurants Opposite direction is another supermarket and tobacco shop, roughly same distance but not as hilly. Villa does have a couple of trolleys for use. We truly had a fantastic holiday and would definitely return again. A huge thankyou to David and El for letting us stay and make priceless memories that will last a lifetime 😃

Very good family centre
The proximity of the beautiful beach and very good restaurants made for a good holiday. The house is spacious and lends itself to 3 distinct groups. 14 of us were very comfortable Indeed. The pool was used but very cold on entry. Some wall mounted box kept beeping regularly and was disturbing - one up and one downstairs.

Hi James,We are so glad you had a pleasant stay.The bleeping would be the alarm system,the batteries need renewing,it was a shame you never mentioned this to the housekeeper who would have changed them very quickly and easily.The temperature of the pool obviously gets warmer as we head into summer,as your stay was at the start of April the water temperature would have been quite normal for the time of year.Overall we are glad you and your family had a nice stay and we hope to see you again in the future.

Lovely villa. Great location
We had an amazing holiday at the villa. It was in a fantastic location, only a couple of minutes from the beach. The swimming pool was big enough for 9 adults. We didn’t need a car as you can walk to the supermarket and restaurants. The supermarket is up a steep hill but the villa had trolleys to use which was so helpful. El who looks after the house was helpful and it was a lovely touch that there was the food essentials and more waiting for us. Would definitely recommend this villa.

Great Villa in a fantastic location
The villa was spacious with lots of different areas for people to be able to go and relax and more than big enough for the 13 of us with a lovely pool and plenty of loungers. The area is brilliant you have the beach at the end of the road, with some restaurants and beach bars within 5-10 mins walk. Then Cabo Raig is a 15 min either up a steep hill or the coastal path and it is a busy area with alot more restaurants, bars and shops. Perfect for everyone.

Perfect!
Absolutely gorgeous villa , we stayed here as a family of 16 age range 7 to 65 . This villa is massive and has everything you need down to towels for pool to trolleys you can take to the supermarket . Everything is so close , supermarket just up hill which is massive and is really good value(bottle of gin or vodka €4) wine at €2.75 😍 .The beach is literally on the doorstep with a lovely bar /restaurant . Lovely walk along the beach on a bridge walkway takes you to lovely restaurants and bars. Richard who met us at the villa is great I rang him to tell him we had arrived at 10pm and when we arrived we had water butter bread and even a few beers !! Also while we were there the electric went off , I text him and the response was instant 😊 . Fantastic pool which is slot bigger than I expected with sun all day , lovely outdoor seating area . We all had a Fantastic time and didn't want to come home .Thankyou

Property was excellent. Location was great, just 2 minute walk to a lovely sandy beach.
We were a family of 16 which included 2 children and a 7 month old baby and not forgetting our pet dog Hector. We had such fun at this property and around the large swimming pool. Plenty of seating areas for everyone and sun beds. Kitchen well equipped with everything you would need. One thing that would have been helpful would have been a clothesline/airer. (Not a complaint but just a suggestion). Richard who met us and showed us around the property was very helpful. Thanks to David the owner for letting us stay at his property. Would recommend to anyone.

Amazing location fantastic villa!
From the start of the enquiry to our return home we could not have been more impressed. David was fantastic in all communications and the villa was perfect for our stay of 9 mums on a long weekend break. We were gobsmacked at how big the villa was and overwhelmed by our welcome. We weren't expecting a welcome pack with the essentials including wine!!! The beach was perfect and only a 2 minute walk and we found a supermarket and plenty of places to eat and drink within a 15 minute walk. Would definitely recommend this villa and hopefully we will be back soon! Thanks again for everything. Sarah

Overall, it was a fantastic holiday. The villa was very spacious, clean, new kitchen and is furnished with all the cooking wares and dinning wares you need for a large group. 3 fridges to store food and drinks which is essential for this warm weather. Best of all it's just 2 minutes walk to the beach, about 10 minutes walk to Cabo and mercados and only 20-30 minutes from SJ airport. Would love to return next year and stay longer... Thanks David

Högt pris för dåligt boende
Bra läge nära stranden. Stort och rymligt. Huset var till salu och därför försummades underhållet. Huset gav ett mycket slitet och ovårdat intryck. Varmvattenberedaren fungerade uselt, vattnet blev på sin höjd ljummet men mestadels kallt i duscharna. Felet påtalades flera gånger men påstådda åtgärder hade ingen verkan. Ägaren var oförstående till problemet och gjorde inga försök till att kompensera för att han inte höll sin del av avtalet. Detta hus skulle jag absolut inte rekommendera någon att hyra.

Akta sig! den här mannen försökte utpressa pengar från mig genom att säga att det var ett problem med varmvatten, min rörmokare deltog omedelbart och hittade inga problem. Till detta fanns 3 fler personer till festen än deklarerades på det ursprungliga avtalet som gjordes medvetet att minska priset på vistelsen. Som du kan se av tidigare recensioner och även av bilder och video hålls villaen i ett mycket bra och rent skick. Vi låter villaen ut året runt och brukar få 5 stjärnor recensioner, tyvärr nu och då har vi en festvistelse som inte respekterar fastigheten och kommer leta efter sätt att återkräva lite pengar. Vi är redan nästan fullbokade för 2019 många av dessa är återkommande kunder som har returnerats varje år.
