Mountain Re Treat
Review Submitted: August 13, 2009
Date of Stay: July 2009
This property did exactly what it says on the tin - and more. The views from the terrace and pool area are breathtaking and ever-changing, with the odd passing eagle to add to the experience.
Inside, the villa is immaculately presented with two superb newly fitted bathrooms, one en-suite to the master bedroom. The owners provided all the information needed to enjoy our stay and also local contacts if anything needed attention.
Outside, the pool in particular was clean and a pleasure to use, as were the patio, barbecue and terraced areas. It was a joy to cook and eat on the terrace, with only the sound of cicadas to break the silence. The location is perfect, with hardly any passing traffic (the track to the villa runs out after a few yards past the entrance), apart from the odd herd of goats or a wandering mule. This is truly a place to get a way from it all, but there are some quality restaurants nearby, particularly the Vendimia in Comares.
However, don't expect much in the way of nightlife nearby, unless you mean geckos climbing up the walls. This place is NOT for lovers of loud music, bright lights, bars and discos. Go elsewhere if this is your idea of a holiday. You don't know what you are missing.
