Perfect Hideaway

Review Submitted: October 20, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
The only down-side to this property was that it was too far from the beach and restaurants. Transport was necessary. Otherwise, it was perfect. We will be returning as soon as possible.

No 5star .Time for a refurb! - But great holiday!

Review Submitted: October 14, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
On first appearence this apartment appeared really nice. The pool and outdoor space was great, apart from the side of the pool tiling that fell off during our stay which was extemely hazardous and was not replace until days later.

There was no hot water for 2days, which in a so called 5* villa this was not accepable.

The separate toliet broke on 3rd day and although reported to Barbara - it was never fixed and we had to either manually refill it or use the ensuite bathroom.

The main apartment door handle broke and we had to use the side door for the last 4 days.

And the last and most annoying problem, we had prepaid Barbara return pickups to the airport, but on our way home Barbara failed to pick us up as she was running over 45mins late and we had to make our own way to the airport. The return fare was refunded into our account, but this kind of service was not acceptable and we almost missed our flight home.

I really hate to be going on about the problems we had with this villa but it really was just one thing after another - time for a refurb Barb!

But in saying that we really did have a brilliant time in this holiday spot it was just a shame the Villa had so many problems!

Owner's Response: The problem with the hot water was reported to the owners immediately who arranged first for a plumber to repair it. It was then necessary
to get an electrician which was difficult at the weekend, however the hot water was repaired as soon as possible.

The 'broken' toilet was never reported to us and, after the clients had left, was working perfectly with no problems at all!

We were not informed that the clients had broken the door handle, obviously because they did not want to lose their damages deposit!

We do try to offer our clients a complete service including airport transfers whenever possible. On the odd occasion that it is not
possible we do order taxis whenever necessary.

Best Villa We've Ever Stayed In!!!

Steve&Kathy Hertfordshire, UK
Review Submitted: October 4, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
If you're thinking of staying at this villa, then DO! If you don't your missing out on the most beautiful villa me and my family have ever stayed in.

Barbara and Dave were brilliant, they met us at the villa showed us around and helped us to make the most of our holiday.

The villa was very clean and well maintained, the pool itself and the area around it was spacious and had some beautiful views, it was very quiet and peaceful.

Overall an amazing place to stay, we'll be definitely back!

Very nice Property

Review Submitted: September 21, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Our stay (15-24/05/2009) was great. Nice clean and spacious villa-apartment with large pool (unfortunately not heated). The views are stunning and the area is very quiet and peaceful. It's well situated but you need however a car. We appreciated very much the personal presence of the owners who are very friendly and kind persons. Barbara is a lovely and very efficient manager. Thanks for all ! We would highly recommend this place.

A Perfect Holiday Villa

Nicola -Jane Aberdeenshire, Scotland,UK
Review Submitted: July 28, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
we have just returned from our holiday in this villa. We would highly recommend it and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The villa was clean and well maintained. It is in a good location but is a bit of a walk into the centre but we were provided with the tel no.for a taxi company for when we needed one which was most helpful. Barbara who looks after the villa, was very helpful before, during and after our stay. We would definitely be happy to return here.

Review Submitted: July 3, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Excellent! This villa had it all. it was spacious and clean and lovely. I would defo go back. Myself and 5 of my girl pals had a lovely stay here couldnt fault it. The location and views were stunning.The pool was great and the terrace is a great size. Barbara who looks after the villa was brilliant she picked us up from the airport and was a mine of information about things to do and see. She also recommened a taxi firm to us that were reliable and spoke good english. Its a bit of a walk to get to and i would suggest a taxi for going out in the evening but during the day its a good walk if you like that sort of thing. We all agreed that we would go back again in the future.The weather was terrific and having our own pool was great. First time doing a villa and if this was anything to go by it wont be the last. Thanks for a great holiday stay.

Beautiful Property

Glasgow Scotland
Review Submitted: August 18, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
I have just returned from a weeks' holiday staying in this villa. It is absolutely stunning - well maintained, clean, very spacious (There were 6 of us). I travel to Benalmadena regularly and this property is the best I've stayed at so far. The streets surrounding the villa are quiet, but only a short walk to the main road, supermarkets, bars/restaurants, beach etc. I would recommend this property to anyone wishing to visit Benalmadena - would suit all holidaymakers. I will certainly be back! Elaine & Family.
