La Oliva Hotel Guide - Playa del Chinchorro hotels in La Oliva, Spain.

"Great location and services. Some slightly dated rooms is the only reason I can see this is the price it is. Great value for money. "

"villa was lovely, very private, quiet and relaxing, great mountain view at the back of house, had great glass roomed areas at the back which you can admire the view from the indoor jacuzzi/doa or just relaxing in a chair, great in bad weather to have that area to chill in, the only thing I would say is there is a lot of local dogs in the surrounding properties, so there is a lot of constant barking all day through to the evening, it wasn't to bad at first but when its constant all day and all night every day it does get a bit frustrating and annoying, also there is a black and white cat which is constantly at the house constantly meowing it's really loud and sounds like a baby crying, there is food and a cat house in the outside laundry area, not sure if it is a resident of the house or wether it's a stray, but don't feel like it's up to the people who rent the house to feed it and look after it, obviously this is what has been happening that's why it's constantly there, with the dogs barking and the cat meowing was annoying, there could be a few more items in the kitchen to use for eg measuring jugs, pizza cutter and a few more things, very close to airport, lidl and aldi just 20 min car drive, so great location, I would stay there again lovely spacious, comfortable villa "

"The villa is situated next to the ancient volcano of Mount Arena and as we are botanists we found it very interesting.The villa is an 'eco-house' which means that the hot water relies on sunshine. Unfortunately (and I think this is unusual) we had nine days of cold cloudy weather. This meant that the hot water was very erratic. I shaved in cold water evry morning and we didn't use the shower much because it was sometimes cold, sometimes warm. There is a gas cylinder heater which was useful in the evenings.It was too cold to use the pool but it was very clean.We cooked in every evening. One of the rings on the cooker doesn't work but the owner seems to be aware of this so I expect that will be fixed soon. There were very few pans for cooking but the owner kindly lent us a saucepan. As improvements I would suggest a couple more saucepans with lids and possibly a microwave. I thought the breakages deposit of about 500 was rather high, I could not see how you could do that much damage as all the furniture is pretty basic.If all that sounds a bit negative I should say that the owner was very helpful and easily contactable. "

"Everything lovely. Shared toilet and shower which were clean and tidy. "

"Spotless room (duplex) Modern set up with plenty of parking , heated pool which was ideal "

"The owners are very welcoming and helpful.They let us check in early and as we were unlucky with the weather they gave us a fan heater for the chilly evenings.They left wine , biscuits and fruit for us and more drinks in the fridge and any query was answered promptly.The villa is very comfortable and spotlessly clean andwe would love to come back . Can only recommend"

"Very good communication. Facilities exactly as described. Local manager very helpful. Property clean and well presented. Location instructions were out of date as they mentioned turning immediately after a restaurant (*which is no longer there). Having comfortable seating outside on the patio would make what is a great villa into a truly excellent one. We had a really good holiday. Thank you"
