Wonderful!

Review Submitted: April 8, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
We had such a good holiday - just what we needed! The villa was in a great position, probably the best in the whole complex, with stunning views over the immaculately kept golf course and on to the sea. Lying in bed in a morning, with a cup of tea and looking at this view was brill! Overall, I would thoroughly recommend this villa, it is in a great position, being close to the town of Caleta but far enough away from it not to be disturbed by any noise. It was an absolute luxury to have our own private, heated pool, which we made good use of! The villa itself has everything you might need and really was a home from home. Very comfortable in the evenings if we wanted to doss in front of the telly when we got back from one of the great restaurants in town. Ralph the owner and the Management company over in Fuerte are very helpful and friendly - making everything go very smoothly. Although car hire is not necessary, if you want to see any of the island, it is recommended, as there are some great places to go - although we would strongly recommend that you don't choose the car hire company Orlando - we queued for 2 hours to get a car - we heard that Cicar are very good and they are based at the airport and also I think in Caleta. Anyway, hope you have a great holiday, we did.

Owner's Response: Thank you very much for your review, it is always nice to know that our guests enjoy the villa and it's views as much as we do.

With regards to the car rental, we have found over the last couple of years that autoreisen have had the best deals and they are in the airport. They are also trading under the name of top-car-hire and low-cost-car.. It is all the same company but the rates do differ slightly. Whichever you book through you still go to the Autoreisen desk.

Hope this is helpful and look forward to hearing from you again.

Just marvellous

We have only been home a few hours after a wonderful week at this villa, and already missing it. This was a top-quality property to stay in, furnished and equipped to a very high standard, and so very spacious. We read the reviews before we booked, and this helped make our minds up. We have booked holidays in the past to all sorts of destinations and usually find the descriptions of what to expect have fallen short to down right disappointing, but this villa is in a league of its own. What a pleasure after most of a day travelling. We are grateful to the owners Ralph and Teresa, and Debbie the agent at the resort, for the very friendly handling of the whole thing. We will put this down as one of the best holidays we have had in a long time.

One of the best

Review Submitted: October 25, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
We have had a number holidays in this location each one in a similar type villa. This one is our favourite - why? - its excellent location, good facilities, high quality and the owners, Ralph & Teresa have a desire to please and give value for money.

Our villa was cleaned and prepared to a very high standard and the local agent was a great source of information. We certainly have no hesitation in recommending.

You must stay in this Villa!

Review Submitted: September 6, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
The description the owners posted on the website gave us a picture of what to expect, but we certainly felt the Villa gave us so much more. It was spacious, modern, clean and of course the pool and the patio area was a joy to come back too after a 'hard' days slog sun bathing on the beaches.
The views from both the bedroom balcony and the patio area was quite stunning, over looking the golfcourse down to the sea.
The area the Villa is situated is extremely peaceful and such a lovely place to settle down for the evening when you have returned from the many restaurants that Caleta de Fuste has to offer.Of course if you fancy a night just sitting on the patio, the local supermarket provides everything you need including a wide range of wines.
I would certainly recommend this Villa as a base if your visiting the Island, the owners make sure that you have every comfort that you need.

Owner's Response: Thank you for your lovely comments.
We are always trying to take photos of the villa and it's views that show future visitors what to expect, but as our guests have found it is so much more than you can capture in a photo and even now we still think we are very lucky to have the magnificent views that we have got, not only of the sea and golf course but of the mountains as well.

Thanks again.

Owner's Response: Thank you for your review, we are pleased that you had a great time and we look forward to your next visit.

We chose the plot the villa sits on for the views and have had comments like yours from not only guests, but other villa owners around the golf course. I have to admit that it is nice to be able to see so much of the coastline not only from the upstairs balcony but also from the patio, dining room and lounge.

Thanks again,

Ralph & Teresa

Review Submitted: July 22, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We stayed at this villa in july 09 for our honeymoon. This villa is fantastic, 5 star luxury!! It has everything you need, cooker, dishwasher, barbecue,even down to iron and hairdryer, just everything you need and the pool,is just gorgeous!!! We stayed for a week and it was a week of luxury, it's about a 20 minute walk into the centre where all the bars and restaurants are and theres also the atlantico shopping centre just down the road with a spar supermarket and loads of shops to buy anything you want. We would highly recommend this villa, we had a fantastic honeymoon!!!

This is a beautifully finished villa, with everthing you could want for a peaceful holiday. stunning views of the sea..and a gentle 30 minute walk to the centre - just enough to build up an appetite and walk off a full meal! My family thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.

Owner's Response: Thank you for the review.
The stunning views can now be seen from the lounge as we have completed the alterations and you can now see not only the coastline and golf course but also the mountains whilst relaxing on the sofa.
We agree with you that the walk into Caleta town is just the right distance to get you ready for a good night out.

Best Wishes

Review Submitted: May 14, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
the villa is great the view is to die for there is every thing you need in the villa We used the barbecue to cook fish and the cooker to make jacket pots We walked every morning for two hours The pool is great and there is a great sun bathing place out side the villa by the bushes nancy and john

Owner's Response: It was nice to hear that you enjoyed the villa so much that you have already booked again for 2010.

We are pleased you used the BBQ and enjoyed eating out on the patio. We hope the spotlight we had installed made sure you didn't burn anything. This was a suggestion from a previous guest who had stayed at the begining of the year when it gets dark much earlier.

There are lots of places to sun bathe around the villa's garden and we are not surprised you liked the area where the habiscus bushes are, as they are covered with stunning flowers for most of the year and you are only a few steps away from the pool if you fancy a quick dip to cool down.

We look forward to your visit next year.

Lovely Holiday.

Review Submitted: March 16, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
We had a very pleasant stay here in Fuerteventura. The villa had everything we needed, in a nice location overlooking the golf course and with a sea view. Weather was lovely too, seems we got the right week for non stop sunshine although the nights can be quite chilly.
We visited the whole island during our week, if you wish to do this its a must to have a car.
Thanks again for a very pleasant week in your very comfortable well equipped villa.

Owner's Response: Thank you for your review. We are pleased you had a good holiday.

Usually in January and February it can get a bit chilly at night, hence the reason for the oil filled radiators. When I say to people that it was cold because the temperature dropped down to 15 degrees, they usually laugh. But you get used to the heat during the day so it does feel a bit chilly at night. It will soon be time for the guests to have the ceiling fans on all night to keep cool.

Glad you enjoyed the wonderful view.
