Amazing villa and pool
Posted Jul. 3, 2023 on HomeAwayThis is a very comfortable and well equipped villa. Large fridge freezer, microwave, coffee machine, dishwasher and washing machine. Plenty of crockery and cutlery. Comfortable sofas and lounge area, bedroom was spacious with plenty of wardrobe space and lovely walk in shower in the en suite. The icing on the cake is the amazing gardens with stunning pool. Would 100% recommend for a comfortable relaxing holiday. A car is a must as the villa is some distance from mazarron and about a mile from the supermarket, however this was no issue for us as the villa location was private and peaceful.

Beautiful Villa
Posted Apr. 10, 2023 on HomeAwayWe had a lovely stay in the villa. Has all that you would need. The owners are quick at responding to messages and the management team are cery quick to respond if you have an issues during your stay. The weather was lovely. The pool was very cold. The kids did go on, but not as much as if it was a bit warmer. It was too cold for me. (Just a note for anyone planning to go early April) I would highly recommend this villa :-)

Nice villa with lots of outdoor space
Posted Jul. 31, 2022 on HomeAwayClean and tidy villa with lots of space outside including seating areas. Pool is a nice size. Air conditioning great in the bedrooms. Nice modern kitchen with a great size fridge freezer. Number of restaurants and large supermarket within 10 minutes of the villa. Communication with property owner and local property manager was excellent - Rob was very helpful with anything needed at the villa. All in all a lovely place to stay.

Absolutely Stunning villa with amazing grounds and pool
Posted Jan. 13, 2022 on HomeAwayJust had the most fabulous week at this beautiful villa. Everything has been updated and refreshed. There were 3 / 4 dining areas including the new 6 seats and table indoors. An open fire was recently installed, that was tremendous. There were 5 of us and the villa was of ample size. Especially the huge kitchen. We walked about 35mins to shops / restaurants but could drive in 5. It was sometimes dark in certain areas but did not cause any issues. The golf club does great food, drinks and had a beautiful terrace wrapping around for morning and afternoon coffee / wine. Only stayed a few days but have just booked another 2 weeks in the summer. Thanks so much guys :))

Experience
Posted Oct. 5, 2020 on HomeAwayAbsolutely stunning Villa in an urbanisation. Outside pool area is beautiful and certainly makes up for the lack of space inside the villa. Whilst the kitchen has recently been refurbished it seems a waste of indoor space as when raining there was no dining table & chairs inside to sit and have a meal. Having previously stayed in villas there was little provided ie half a toilet roll, no dishwasher tablets or washing machine liquid or pods to start your holiday. On the website it stated 15 minutes walk to bars & restaurants!! We were all fit and it took us 30 minutes to walk there and no taxis available to get back late at night. The walk back was fine but poorly lit on the second half to the villa. The Supermarket is also a 30 minute walk therefore a car is essential. The Golf Club Clubhouse is a 5 minute walk however it’s essential that you book if you want to eat. The villa met its purpose but I wouldn’t return.

Dear Nicky
Firstly, thank you for your positive comments with regards to the pool and its grounds.
Nicky, having received over 38 x 5* reviews, I was personally very surprised to read your commentary and receive a 3* review.
Unfortunately, your statement with regards to the shops and restaurants is factually incorrect, if you read it correctly, it states “only 5 minutes’ walk from Camposol Golf Course and Club House. Local facilities include; Indian, Chinese, Bulgarian, Steak, Fish & Italian restaurants, Shops, Bowling and Sports Bars. Just 12 minutes’ drive from the beautiful beaches of Mazarron” Nowhere whatsoever does it state a walk time to the shops and restaurants, which yes, is roughly 30 minutes.
I am deeply saddened to hear you would not return. Most of our guests return year after year, some have been doing so for over 4 years.
With regards to the table and chairs in the kitchen, the area was refurbished in March 2020, Covid struck and we have not yet been able to address such issues, apologies for that.
As for the villa being small? I am confused… We have guests of 6 stay all the time, you were only 4?
No mention from you with regards to the lovely welcome gift of wine, coffee, tea and a welcome card? Only that we have not supplied washing powder? Again apologies, we will work on that…
I wish you all the best Nicky, apologies we could not meet your high standards on this occasion

Perfect for a relaxing break
Posted Oct. 25, 2019 on HomeAwayLovely villa, very well presented with lots of outdoor space.
The huge variety of outdoor seating options is a big plus, as a group of 5 adults we had plenty of space to sunbathe, relax and eat. The outdoor and pool lighting in the evenings is very nice.
Indoors isn’t massive but that’s not really where you spend your time - comfy lounge and very practical kitchen with everything supplied. Plenty of towels also available.
Nearby golf course club house does really good food at very reasonable prices, €18 for a very nice 3 course meal - much nicer than expected. Good drinks and evening entertainment too.
Hire car is definitely worth having to make shopping easier and any exploring if you choose to head out. The local area is quiet but only really other villas (with the exception of supermarket and a few local bars/takeaways) so it’s definitely much more of a chill out location than a base for exploring.
Julie was always very helpful for checking us in and showing us around, especially considering our late arrival time.
Had a fantastic stay and would happily return.

Simply Outstanding Highly Recommended
Posted Sep. 6, 2019 on HomeAwayI cannot praise this property, or its owners enough. From the initial booking to the stay, the customer service has been simply wonderful. The pictures are great, but they don't really cut it quite right, the villa is stunning, the garden simply beautiful. The Pool is massive and lovely in the summer sun. The owners had just built a new dinning area with metal gazebo which was a lovely treat and a welcome break from the sun. Thanks Guys, keep up the good work, we will definitely be back.

Relaxing break
Posted Jun. 1, 2019 on HomeAwayThis is the nicest rental property we have ever stayed in, so clean and comfortable, fabulous pool. Ben and Giles should feel very proud of their lovely home! You need a car to go exploring and there are great beaches within a 20 min drive.

A nice relaxing stay
Posted May 16, 2019 on HomeAwayOn arrival, the villa was in good clean condition, as was the garden and pool. Everything was maintained to a good standard, the pool was a very good size, and warmed up nicely as the week progressed in the brilliant sunshine. The kitchen has everything you need and the showers are great due to excellent water pressure. It's about a 5 minute walk to the clubhouse and around 20 minutes or so to the bars and supermarket. A car is quite important to get around if you want to get out and about, but not essential should you just want a relaxing time around the pool. The communication before and during our stay was excellent, should you have any questions and we will be returning for sure.
Thanks guys
