Review Submitted: August 31, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
this was our second time at the villa and it just gets better, great place for relaxing and taking it easy. The villa is fantastic and so is the pool, nothing better than sitting on veranda over looking the lake and mountains especially at night, and the air con is a godsend. We are looking forward to going back already. Highly recommend El Charco restaurant at top of mountain

Owner's Response: It is always good to have an independant review of my property and it speaks for itself when you rebook and are thinking about going out next year. I will try to keep it up to date and listen to my renters. I have added and i pod station so people can conveniently take their own music out. Thank you for your comments.

Relaxing Holiday.

Alessandros Greasby, Wirral, U.K.
Review Submitted: June 17, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
The Villa is an excellent property, which fully came up to our expectations. All rooms are a good size for their purpose, and the lounge, with it's fireplace, was a delight when the cool of the evening came along. The verandah and sun terrace, around the pool, presented many options for relaxing, reading, sun bathing, eating and drinking...! The Villa really is in an excellent location. Wonderful views from the terrace and even better from the solarium. This is helped by the villas either side being set further back and a little lower. There are two good restaurants, one in Los Romanes, one in the other direction, both within 15/20 minutes walking for the average person. There are small supermarkets (one called 'Arkrights'!) across the Lake, and much larger ones outside Nerja, about 20 minutes away by car. The old parts of Nerja, much now pedestrianised, were a delight, and the beaches along the coast on either side were all within easy driving. The Villa is in a good position for ready access to activities such as walking, sightseeing and water borne play around the Lake. The Villa is a comfortable drive of around 30 minutes from Malaga airport. I would recommend the Villa to anyone for a truly relaxing holiday; it was clean and in good order, the owner having paid attention to detail, and provided an excellent level of service.

Owner's Response: Thank you Alex for your review there is only one thing I might point out is that it takes more than 30 minutes from the airport more like 40 to 45. Your driving must be a little faster than mine and I know the way! Thank you once more for taking the time to do a review they are alway helpful for people to compare.

May half term holiday

Review Submitted: June 1, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We had a wonderful time at this villa - the view was absolutely stunning and the pool was perfect for us (a family of five). The villa had a warm feel to it, had everything you could need and was absolutely spotless. We would definitely holiday here again!

A car is an absolute must, That said although you are in a rural position you are only 5 mins drive from about three or four restaurants - all lovely and about 15 mins from a huge supermarche.

There are loads of lovely villages to visit and the caves at Nerja were worth a look - especially for the kids.

Owner's Response: It is always good to hear from people who rent my villa, and feel the same as we do about it. I try hard to make sure that everything you may need is cater for and take notice of any suggestions to improve. Thank you for taking the time to respond it is important to other people to get an independent view.

Review Submitted: May 31, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
Everything about the villa was great, it felt like home from home as it was all so comfortable, except our home doesn't have the spectacular views that awaited us, sitting out on the terrace overlooking the pool and the lake was simply magical. Thank you so much for a great base for our holiday, our only regret was that being March we couldn't use the pool.

Restaurant El Charco in the village is superb and was our favourite although the two on the lakes are also good.

It is an ideal spot for a lovely, relaxing holiday and we would highly recommend it.

Fantastic Holiday!!!

Review Submitted: May 29, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2008
We had a abolutley fantastic time at this Villa and would recommend to anyone, especially groups of couples and famillies. The views are stunning, the villa has everything you need, and more and the weather and pool are great. The villa is of a high standard and extremely well cared for. The private pool and garden are lovely and the terrace is great to sit and have BBQ's overlooking the view. Easy to get to by car, about 45mins from Malaga and 1 hour from Granada. Good selection of local eaterys (be prepared to walk up a hill though!) and in a great location to vivit loads of local towns like Torrox, Nerja, Casabamerja etc. We'll be going back! Thanks for a wonderful holiday!

Owner's Response: Thank you for your review, at least when you get up the hill you have an excellent meal and the walk back is effortless, and as you say cooking on the BBQ has its own rewards.

Perfect Retreat

Review Submitted: November 2, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
I stayed here with my wife and found it to be everything we were looking for and more! Immaculate yet homely with stuning views of the lake and loveky terrace and pool area for relaxing.
There was a great restaurant just a short walk up the hill which served us well on the nights we felt like venturing out but there was really no need. I found the kitchen to have everything we needed and also a great brick BBQ which we used on a couple of nights.
During the day we found some lovely coastal towns and beaches just a short drive away but we were really just as happy by the pool.
The owners have clearly thought of everything you might want which really made our stay very relaxing and easy.
I will definately be back.

Perfect get away

Review Submitted: July 8, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
This villa has the most stunning views.
Its is so peaceful & quiet.
The owners gave us great directions from the airport, but I must say I was glad we got there during daylight hours as I feel it would be quite difficult to find in the dark, even with good directions.
The villa has everything you could possibly need.
I would highly recommend a stay here as you will be very well catered for, a true home from home (only much warmer).
