Fantastic Nerja Villa

Owner's Response: Thanks for your review. We have a fantastic management team in Spain, who look after the villa and ensure that it is always immaculate and are there to look after our guests. The villa is certainly great for romantic getaways, as well as for family holidays. Lots of our guests find themselves spending lots of time just lazing around the pool, swimming and taking in the spectacular views and making use of the bbq during the day, and then spending evenings wandering around the Balcon de Europa and taking in the tapas bars and restuarants. However, the Burriana Beach area also has really good restaurants on or near the beach, which are great to visit at night as well as during the day. Dinner by the sea is wonderful. Hope to see you back again soon.

Owner's Response: So glad that you had such a great birthday at Villa Christina, it certainly is the place to celebrate, with the 90sq ft 'party room' and bbq, bar, etc. It is wonderful that you were still able to sun bathe and swim in October, the weather in Nerja is great in the Autumn/Winter months for a sunshine holiday. Hope to see you back again soon.

Owner's Response: Thanks for taking the time to review the Villa, and so glad you had a great holiday in September. The weather in Nerja is always still very hot in September and also well into October it is often in the 80s. All of our guests love the view of the sea from the balconies. Glad you enjoyed the bubbly hot tub, great fun and seems really popular. Nerja is also great for winter holidays, with 320 days of sunshine though the year, and typically the temperature never drops below 16 degrees in the winter months. Maybe you could have a winter holiday next time and play some golf or ski!

Owner's Response: Pleased you had a good holiday and that you enjoyed the great sea views and all the amenities at Villa Christina - Why not come back and visit soon - maybe for a winter break later this year.

Owner's Response: So pleased you had such a good time at our Villa and once again the pool room sounds as though it was a big hit with the kids! The view from the Villa over the Mediterranean is stunning and sometimes its nice just to stay by the pool all day and relax. However, glad you got the chance to visit the surrounding areas as there is so much to see and do in and around Nerja and the Water Park is lovely for a day out with the children. Look forward to you staying with us again some time in the future, maybe for a winter getaway, as the climate is so mild during the winter months and Christmas is a great time to stay, especially New Years Eve which is celebrated by fireworks on the Balcon de Europa at midnight.

Owner's Response: So glad you loved the Villa and the views. Ladera del Mar is an established and quiet urbanisation, so offers a peaceful holiday where you can quite happily stay in the Villa for days and have everything you need with the pool and bbq. For those who prefer to do lap swimming the communal pool is set in pretty gardens overlooking the sea and is for the sole use of the residents and their guests. Nerja at night is wonderful for families and couples alike, with so much choice of restaurants, tapas bars and the best ice cream parlours and coffee shops ever! My favourite is Anahi. It's a pleasant little cafe to have breakfast at with outside seating. Its attraction is that it has hot chocolate and churros, both delicious and a popular breakfast or mid-morning snack for Spaniards. It’s also a great café to pop into in the evening after dinner for a wonderful cup of coffee, a liqueur and a great choice of cakes. Nerja has all this but still maintains that quaint Spanish feel. There are often street entertainers on the Balcon de Europa in the evenings and the pony & carriage rides are always popular. We're sorry you had a problem with the air con unit in one of the bedrooms. Engineer has now serviced all the air con units, so all should now be ok again, and thanks for being understanding - these things do happen from time to time but our Managing Agent John is always just a phone call away to sort out any problems as soon as possible. We do always recommend a car as there are so many lovely places to visit during a stay in Nerja, and it does get very hot during July & August. Burriana Beach is fantastic for the kides and teenagers alike with loads of water sports to choose from. There is also a place called 'Adventura' located here. You can book many activities there from horse riding, fishing and water sports to day trips further afield. So glad you had a great time and we hope you will visit us again.

Owner's Response: So glad your holiday was great, and you are right the Villa is much bigger than most people expect! Glad you utilised the outside dining areas, great for for bbq's during the day/evening or for a more intimate candle lit dinner on the upper terrace. As you say there are loads of great and different restaurants in and around Nerja, and the paella is always superb, there is also a great restaurant on Burriana Beach which makes giant paella every day. The beach walk into Nerja is lovely, and as you say lots of places to stop and refuel along the way. Hope to see you back again one day.

Owner's Response: So glad you all enjoyed yourself at Villa Christina and that you enjoyed the wonderful sea view. Our chill out/play room is always so popular and as you say, is great for older children to use the pool table and the sky tv and dvd machine, so make sure you take plenty of dvd's with you to watch! Our manager, John always ensures that the villa is kept spotless and is always on hand to help out. Hope you can come and stay with us again soon, maybe over the winder period.
