Nice quiet villa with decent pool and well kept garden
The villa was clean and the kitchen was well equipped.
The pool was a good size and the children loved it.
There was enough loungers for six people. Plenty of cushions too.
The garden was well kept with lots of flowers and there were ripe lemons on the citrus tree.
On the down side, the barbecue was broken on arrival, but the owner replaced it with a new one whilst we were there.
The washing machine and one of the toilets were not in use. A plumber was arranged but didn't turn up.
One of the outside doors separating the dining area from the front pool area was corroded and couldn't be opened.
The outside fridge didn't work.
These were all minor inconveniences for us and didn't affect our enjoyment of the holiday.

Charming Villa in Great Location in very run down condition with misleading description .
Charming Villa in Great Location in very run down condition with misleading description .
Villa is very run down, in need of basic maintenance. Bed linen and towels , ancient/grubby/ towels threadbare. Pillowcases with bloodstains. No toilet rolls, no kitchen towel, no basic soaps, no beach towels, no operable safe (all listed as included). Host (bit of a misnomer) told us washing machine was broken...since bedding so grubby had to wash it and we found machine did work. No pool side shade because both parasols were broken, one was complete junk. Sun beds filthy dirty with black staining; other sunbeds just scrap. Barbecue filthy. There are two bikes (teenage children size) but these are in a shed; it took several attempts to fathom out the key and lock to the shed which was in need of replacement; tyres to bike flat. Much of impressive planting about villa in desperate need of pruning (actually very thorny and dangerous). Glazed doors from pool terrace to sea facing terrace cannot be opened..locking mechanisms bent/corroded and seeming smashed by a hammer. Have photographic evidence to corroborate all these comments. Was in dialogue with owner who apologised but was powerless because he lives in Holland. At end of holiday, locally based hosts turned up with very sour faces...looked as if they had been made aware of our comments and observations. Paul, you have been less than honest in your description of the facilities on offer and you said you would amend your Home Away description. This will be too late for us. Had we known about the condition of the property and its facilities we would not have booked it. I will be considering our legal position in the light of the misrepresentation and seeking recompense. It is a great shame that such a great villa, in such a great location has been allowed to get so run down. It is unforgivable to mislead potential renters in the way the property and its facilities are presented.

Lovely villa & pool with amazing views all round!!
Lovely villa & pool with amazing views all round!!
We spent 2 weeks at this villa with our 6 & 10 yr old and returned a few days ago. It's located in a nice quiet and private location not over looked by other properties.
We all loved it and found it a relaxing 2 weeks spending most of our time by the pool during the day and on the patio terrace on and evening enjoying the sea view watching the sun set!
Villa is a good size inside we plenty of seating but we rarely inside it other than to sleep or kids eating food out of the sun. Also plenty of seating opportunities outside as well so you can be in the sun if you wish all day. The roof sun terrace has a terrific view and is a good idea, however we never used it due to having 2 young kids and not wanting them to potentially trip and fall over (has no barrier up which would spoil the view and openness of it), ideal for adults to! :)
We found the drive from airport to villa was just over an hour as described and has some amazing views when you turn off the main motorway and start the 25 min drive up the mountains. We did the journey up and down quiet a few times as were familiar with the area so revisited some previous places and never got tired of the mountain views ;)
Villa had everything inside you would need. Ensuite shower was brilliant (never used the other bathroom) with plenty of pressure.
Around a week into the holiday 2 fellas from the local water company walked up to property and asked to show me a leak at the edge of the villa. They spoke no English but we soon establish that water shooting into the air was a burst pipe belonging to villa & they needed to turn water off. I messaged Paul the owner and within a few minutes Paul replied and had booked a plumber. It was fixed shortly afterwards. Considering this is a remote location we were impressed how quick this was resolved! Thanks!
Kids enjoyed spotting the lizards throughout the day, 1 particularly around the pool that would let you stroke it. Also keep a look out on an evening around the Patio area, we were startled to see a pretty big Gecko on the wall :)
Definitely recommend this Villa and will recommend it to friends. Thanks for having us Paul & Alex.

Great villa and the heated pool was fantastic
Great villa and the heated pool was fantastic
My daughters were literally in the pool the entire holiday. The heated pool kept us going through some colder weather, highly recommended. The villa itself is very well equipped and in such a peaceful location, all we heard was a lonesome cockerel - best sleep I have had in ages.
The villa exceeded our expectations. It offers a serene environment with beautiful landscapes. Plenty of seating areas indoors and outdoors, a big pool, and lovely Chill-out zones. Definitely worth returning.

Paul´s Villa met all our needs. Quiet and perfectly equipped. Pictures are 100% accurate. The place has all kind of details everywhere. Plenty of space to seat, indoors and outdoors. Beautiful Chill-out zone to enjoy the amazing Competa´s landscape, particularly during the night or in the south terrace with nice views of both sea and mountains. Big pool as well (I believe 4x8 meters). Definitely, a place to get back. We will come back if possible.
On the other hand, careful with the GPS. If you use Google Maps to get there you might get lost easily as Competa has a complex and sneaky road network. I recommend to follow Paul´s detailed explanations to make sure you get to the place right away.

Wir (46/45/20/18Jahre) haben unseren Sommerurlaub in der Finca Andalusia in vollen Zügen genossen. Die Finca ist großzügig angelegt und bietet auch an sehr heißen Tagen immer ein schattiges und angenehmes Fleckchen zum Relaxen. Besondere Highlights waren für uns das Baden im wunderschön Pool und die Abende auf der Dachterrasse unter dem andalusischem Sternenhimmel. Der Kontakt mit unseren Vermietern hat sehr gut funktioniert. Vielen Dank für diesen schönen Urlaub!
