Villa Alicia has a lovely pool and perfect view of the marina
Overall the property was spacious and we had a great holiday.
However, as a group of 12 we felt that the house was not really stocked to accommodate 12 - there are 12 beds, but there was a lack of glassware, only 1 sun parasol, a v small barbecue, and 3/4 of the bathrooms need updating. The villa would benefit from a really thorough jet wash of the patio and outside area, and sort out the accumulation of broken garden furniture/pool floats in the cupboards and old bits and pieces in the pantry.
The walk down to La Herradura is v steep and takes a minimum of 20 minutes. The walk has the misfortune of routing past the back of the large hotel next door, which constantly has its bin store open onto the path. The walk back is all up steep paths and is a bit of a chore in 40 degree heat. We had hoped that our teenagers would be able to pop in and out of the village, but this was very impractical.
Parking in La Herradura is a nightmare - seemingly no restrictions along the beach resulting in very few spaces becoming available. We resorted to shuttling ourselves up and down as the bus/taxi availability was a non event.
Overall we had a great holiday, the beach is lovely and we really enjoyed taking out a boat with sukisail (Keith), fabulous kayaking outing with Activ8 You (Dan was a brilliant guide), swimming in the sea, eating seafood on the beach....
