Sonabia Diamond - Amazing House

Absolutely everything. House location, size and views are hard to beat. An amazing setting and the house was exceptionally large and comfortable. Tito, the local contact point & general fixer, was an amazing asset. Always there at the end of a phone to assist/advise. Thank you Tito, you added to a very pleasurable stay.

Nothing to dislike. We had a small issue with power supply and sprinklers, but what wasn't fixed promptly by Tito, was taken on by the owner.

A wonderful house with a magical view of the sea

The house was very clean and well equipped. Everything functioned well and the hosts were very responsive and helpful. The house has majestic views of the sea with plenty of beaches and hikes within walking distance. It is a great location for families (both old and young) and groups of friends to relax and enjoy the outdoors. There is plenty of additional parking nearby if traveling in multiple cars.

Nothing specifically. We had a pleasurable experience without any complaints.

Beautiful villa in a beautiful location, just needs a little TLC

The villa is in a beautifully scenic and peaceful location—perfect for enjoying some quiet time away. The house itself was spacious, well-equipped, and felt very homely. The attention to detail in decor was lovely. The beds were especially comfortable, which made for a good night's sleep throughout our stay. We appreciated the overall layout and the roominess, which gave our family plenty of space to relax. We loved playa Oriñón, absolutely beautiful!

The location, while beautiful, is quite remote. There were no shops within walking distance, and even the nearest one was rarely open, which made picking up essentials a bit of a challenge. The driveway was very awkward to access—you have to reverse down the road and make a tight turn to get in, which was stressful. We also had several issues with the kitchen: the main oven didn’t heat properly due to a broken seal, and when we tried using the upstairs oven instead, it blew the electrics for the whole house. The following day we decided to have a BBQ so we didn't have to figure out the broken ovens. The BBQ was dirty and needed a lot of cleaning before it was useable. The toaster didn’t work well, and one of the two kitchen plug sockets was temperamental which was a pain to sort out. While we still made the most of our holiday, these issues did impact our experience. The pool was also freezing cold!
