review clarification

Just to clarify my previous review -the pool is not suitable for swimming because is too shallow for an adult swimmer. It's great to for the kids though, who can have lots of fun with the waterfall.

Owner's Response: The pool is shallow (not for serious swimmers) but is great for splashing about in and keeping cool under the waterfall.

Magical!

If the pictures alone haven't persuided you to book a holiday here then trust me when you arrive you will be blown away by the beauty of this secluded hideway.

Brian is a absolute diamond in answering any questions i had before i travelled (trust me there were one or two.) Also Jed could not have been any more helpful when we arrived to find it was a spanish bank holiday and throughout our stay.

A car is a absolute must for this place as the road leading up to the Finca as a little hair raising at times but dont let this put you off. I soon got the used to them and they are extemley quiet.

Our Villa was extremly clean and well stocked with everything we needed and although there was no air conditioning it was very cool.
The Pool and Gardens are kept clean and tidy and there are lots of areas to sit quietly on you own and relax. I recomend everyone to sit out looking at the sea watching the sun go down the views are spectatular

I have to say this is THE best place i have EVER stayed in and came home (reluctantly) very relaxed. I will definatly be booking with Brian again and have not stopped going on about his place to anyone who will listen to me since i have come back. This place would be great to hold all the family and book the whole place. (this is definalty on the cards!)

I have to say a massive thankyou to Brian and to Jed for making this holiday perfect.

What a p(a)lace!

Review Submitted: January 20, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009
We had the luck to stay at the Tosca Villa for a few days. The way the photographs look, that is the way you enter the property a night...absolutely breathtaking. The whole property is pretty remote and there a no noises whatsoever. You defenitely need a car to get here and to get away again. The on-site managers are really friendly and helpfull. It was a bit chilly at night, so an electric heater and extra blankets got rid of that little problem.

The Tosca Villa is small....cute and adorable. For us 2 people it was a place to sleep, read a book and eat our breakfast. And it suited us very well! As mentioned before, it is rather small, but it has everything you could wish for: A 2-person bed, well equipped kitchen, shower, toilet and a washing-table. Lovely decorated you feel right at home.

When we ever come back to tenerife, we will try to book another villa, because the litte park is just beautifull

Garden Villa - Finca Paraiso

Review Submitted: November 27, 2008 Date of Stay: November 2008
I almost don't want to leave this review because I want to keep Finca Paraison a secret! To anyone considering booking I have to let you know what a wonderful holiday we have just had. We had high expectations and they were met and more. The Villa and the grounds were just beautiful, we couldn't have been happier! And Jed and Julie made the holiday even more special, they were so helpful and friendly and we had a couple of great evenings around the fire with them. So thanks again, and I'm sure we'll be back.

Fantastic

Review Submitted: September 8, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
Just wanted to say what a brilliant time we had at Finca. The property was of the highest standard and Jed & Julie made us feel more than welcome. It was peaceful and at the same time very friendly with great opportunities to mix with other guests. The BBQ area was great fun and our Villa was secluded enough to not be disturbed if you wanted to be on your own. If you want a quiet get away to relax and enjoy your surroundings, I cant think of a better place. We enjoyed it so much we are thinking of hiring the whole place out with family and friends next year. Thanks again to Brian and especially Jed and Julie for the help on arrival and late nights around the fire.Cheers, Jamie

A Paradise Never to be Forgotten

Review Submitted: August 2, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
We have just returned from finca Paraiso and it was everthing and more that we could possibly have expected.
Every Villa was beautiful with bespoke decor and furnishings, the large grounds were superb with lovely quiet areas, stunning views all round, mountain and sea.

The managers were so friendly and nothing was a problem.
The BBQ area with fire really set the ambience of a truly beautiful paradise.Wine and flowers on arrival lovely touch. We have already booked again for later this year and would highly recommed this beautiful paraise to everyone.
Finca Paraiso is by far the nicest place we have ever stayed.

Simply Gorgeous

Review Submitted: December 19, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
This complex is truly breathtaking, it is beautifully maintained and spotlessly clean. The description was somewhat modest, as we were totally surprised by its true beauty. It offered us everything and more, the managers Jed & Julie were so helpful and pleasant and always smiling. Although it is only 10/15 minutes from the airport, beach, golf courses, you experience a real sense of spanish. There are lovely area's to walk, and stunning views of the mountain and the sea. The villas themselves are gorgeous,as my family booked the whole complex and each individual villa had its own charater.The furnishings of all the villas are very upmarket. We would highly recommend this complex and have done so to everyone since we returned home. Its tropical gardens with avairies offer you lots of private areas to escape to and read a book. The large entertainment area with open fire is fantastic, we BBQ's there most nights. It is also very safe, our children played daily on the trampoline and we did not have to worry about them wandering off. We can honestly say that this is the most beautiful place we have ever stayed, so much so we are planning our return early next year.
