Benidoleig holiday villa: Benidoleig, Near Denia

We stayed at villa corus in July 2009 when the weather was wonderful and had a tremendous holiday. You need a car if you want to get around. The view from the villa is fantastic and totally understated by the owners. We thought the view unsurpassed in the area. The pool area where the ground floor of the property acts a self contained basement serving the pool is well laid out with kitchen , shower room wc and fridge - great for drinks around the pool. The owners have a sofa bed in here but we would suggest this would only be ok for teenagers or adults not minding a drop in comfort levels. The owner was very helpful and so was the local english guy who met us on arrival and helped us settle in. The grounds of the villa are terraced in steps up the hillside and are beautiful. You need to be careful if you have small kids because unless you can keep an eye on them as we did they could fall from some pretty steep places. We managed ok but were worried because our child was at that age when she did not realise the potential dangers around and needed repeated reminding. Also if anyone has any mobility issues especially getting up and down stairs this might be an issue as there are many stairs to navigate down to the bedrooms and the pool are . Other than that we would strongly recommend this place for anyone who wants to get away from the tourist drag and spend a relaxing time away from it all back home. A plus point for us was the new air conditioned shopping centre like the ones back home with all the usual big supermarket , boutiques , cinema and bowling alley - just like home really and the only one of its kind for miles along the costa blanca but about 2 km up the road from the villa. You can find everything you need there for a self catering holiday. We rarely go back to the same place twice but we would go back here which is the best recommendation we could make. Enjoy your stay.
