We've just spent a month at Carmen’s wonderful villa - very clean, nicely decorated, plenty of towels, well equipped kitchen: quality china, glass and cutlery, Miele dishwasher, fridge/freezer, toaster, kettle, gas hob, electric oven/grill, microwave, worktop oven/grill, filter coffee machine, stovetop percolator and Dolce Gusto coffee machine. We used 2 of 3 bedrooms, the 2nd when friends and family visited; beds are very comfortable and lots of wardrobe space in all rooms. Ensuite shower room, main bathroom and cloakroom - all 3 beautifully tiled. Washing machine is outside in useful undercover area. The star is the garden and pool area. Although surrounded by other homes it's not overlooked, a wonderful spot for relaxing. Completely enclosed, our little dog loved it and we realxed knowing he was safe. Some local dogs bark a bit, but ours isn’t barky so it wasn’t an issue for us. Lovely areas to sit outside depending on your preference for sun or shade: three different tables & chair areas, a sofa and armchairs, poolside loungers, a pair of cane armchairs and bar stools. The bar area looks as if it would be amazing in summer (power off at this time of year): BBQ, fridge/freezer, freezer, dishwasher, sink and crockery etc. We were a little chilly the first few nights and when the oil filled radiator wasn’t enough Carmen talked us through using the air con units for heat. We had amazing weather so everything warmed up nicely after a few days. The pool isn’t heated so still bit cold at this time of year but a quick dip was braved. There is Wi-fi, but not much, checking emails and social media used it up in the first week. We have generous data packages with our UK mobile provider and had no problem continuing with that. We found English radio stations on the tv and watched the occasional DVD. There is secure parking for a car within the garden. An unobtrusive pool man came once a week to care of the pool and garden. There are several bars/restaurants in walking distance and more started opening towards the end of our stay. There’s a small shop for bread/basic food items at playa Tesorillo. Almuñécar is 2.5 miles walk and everything you need incl vets. There are big supermarkets there and in Motril that we used. We enjoyed the Parque Mediterraneo pathway to Playa Cabria for beer and tapas . It was an hour and twenty minutes to the car parkat Sol y Nieve for skiing. We would definitely enjoy staying here again.

Great

We stayed here a week in june. Nice location in a quite area, not touristic. Great garden and pool. Short walk to the beach. Small supermarkets in walking distance.

Had a great holiday 2 weeks end of March to middle of April. A couple of really minor issues which Carmen sorted promptly. Quiet residential area, and Villa's internal space perfect and tastefully decorated. Externally this Villa really comes into it's own! Delightful area's to chill out in - In the shade and In the Sun!! Brilliant Pool and our Dog Lola loved the garden area.
