The Villa was like home from home.
Review Submitted: July 16, 2008
Date of Stay: June 2008
My husband and I have stayed at the villa, with friends, on several occasions and always thoroughly enjoyed our time there. It’s beautifully clean, well decorated and is maintained to a high standard, inside and out, and has all the facilities you’ll want for your stay. There’s a supermarket a few minutes drive away that has more or less everything you’ll need.
The pool and barbecue area is a lovely sun trap and I personally find it quite difficult to move from there once I’m on the sun lounger with a book and sun tan cream (the glass of wine is optional, but it is a holiday!).
You will need a car, not just for the supermarket, but to visit Javea where there’s a good selection of bars and restaurants catering to all tastes. It’s lovely to walk along the promenade in the evening and look at the little market stalls before having dinner or sit and have an aperitif and watch the world go by. The beach looks beautiful there too. I’m more of a pool person myself, but I’m sure it would be ideal for kids as it’s not a massive expanse of beach, more of a gentle cove.
From the villa there are a couple of restaurants that you can walk to if you fancy a good stretch of the legs after a lazy day by the pool, but remember it’s uphill on the way back – a good way to work off all the food! Alternatively, once you’ve stocked up at the supermarket, you can have a barbecue and eat by the pool and not have to move at all. That’s the beauty as it’s like home from home and you can just do what you fancy.
You’ve might have gathered that I do like a relaxing holiday, but there’s lots of good info in the villa about what to do in the local area and last time we decided to climb Montgo which was hard and very hot work (take lots of water), but worth it for the views at the top.
Probably the best recommendation I can give is that we’re going back again next year and I’m really looking forward to it, especially after seeing the villa on the website and writing this review – can’t wait.
I’m sure you’ll have a great time if you do manage to get booked.
Kind regards.
