Have recently spent 12 days at David & Cristina's villa, my family of 10 adults and 2 young children (4 & 1), rented the entire property. What a beautiful place! There was more than enough space for us all to spread out, so many terraces & patio areas that we could all find shade for peace & quiet or all gather together for meals. The guesthouse was where us grandparents stayed and was perfect for grandad who has mobility issues. Whist my daughter with 2 small children stayed in the side with the small kitchen as they could breakfast without disturbing any late sleepers. Whilst on the subject of sleeping, the beds were all so comfortable and along with plenty of fans to go around and the peace & quiet of the area, it made for a good nights sleep. The main kitchen had every pot, pan, dish or utensil you could need when catering for a large group as well as washing machines which meant that most of us managed with carry on luggage! We had also thoughtfully been left things like washing tablets, citronella candles, shower gels & bbq charcoal by the hosts, which kept us going until we went shopping. The local supermarket was excellent, within walking distance and with a tapas bar. Larger supermarkets like Lidle & Eroski were an easy 10min drive. I would say a hire car is essential for exploring the area but we managed with 1 car with 3 named drivers for any of us to use. We did use taxis but these were not always prompt.
The gardens were kept beautiful by the gardening crew who came once whilst we were there, they were very efficient & unobtrusive, as was the pool man who came regularly. The pool was beautiful & the largest we've ever seen in a rental property, it quickly became our favourite spot. So much so that it was difficult to tear ourselves away from it & venture out to the many gorgeous small coves & beaches in that area.
As with any large group, its often difficult to find something that would suit all, but this ticked all those boxes. Internet speed was excellent for those that needed to work remotely for a day or so and its proximity to the airport for picking up/dropping off, as we were all arriving at different times, made it easy. Although close to the airport, you hardly noticed it, the whole place was so peaceful & quiet.
Booking & communication with our hosts, both before & during our stay was no problem and every query was answered promptly. Thank you David & Cris for an amazing holiday, our whole group agreed that your home was perfect and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. xxx Deb & family.
