Garden villa with lovely pool in green Andalucia valley near coast

The property was amazing. Fabulous views. Great gardens. Lovely pool with enough shade to be able to escape the midday sun. A quiet location but in easy each of mode built up areas for supplies and dining out. It was clean and had lots of hot water for showering. The BBQ was Great. Things to consider would be the intrusive unscheduled house keeper who although tried to stay out of the way,was around gardenening on several occasions. She also arrived around 8 on our day of departure and cleaned the pool so although we intended to use it before check out at 10 we didn't like to. We also left earlier than 10 as it was obvious she was keen to get on and clean indoors. It would be good to know that the lawn was to be mowed one evening as again this was noisy and intrusive. However, easily worked around if we knew and we could plan around it to be out. The rear door from the kitchen does not lock and we relied on using the shutters for securing the property. The option of a cleaning pack would be good. Staying only a week meant buying large packs of cleaning products and laundry items that were not available at the property. This was wasteful and the option of being given enough for the week would have been welcomed. If not then I recommend a holiday maker to pack a couple of laundry and dishwasher tabs in their case! Critical travel were fantastic in communication, directions and local area information. Well done and thanks. Hope this is useful."

September-October 2016 we spend 9 days in RD45 with our two children, son- and daughter-in-law and 4 grandchildren aged 5½, 2, 1½ years and a newborn only 10 weeks old. The house is well equipped for 12 persons, including high chairs, cods and plastic plates and cups for little children. There is plenty of room for relaxing and playing both indside the house and in the beautyful garden. Birdwatchers will appreciate watching the raptors (e.g. many Griffon Vultures) in the sky and the wild birds living in the garden (e.g. Black Caps, Longtailed Tits and a couple of Peacocks). The large pool was clean and a little cold this time of year, but we used it every day - and the little children enjoyed the little pool. The housekeeper was a nice and very helpfull lady. Beware of the door to the main oven in the kitchen, it was hard to close properly."

Lovely villa and owner was very helpful. The directions needed to have the villa name as when we followed the directions given we were turned away by the housekeeper and this added an hour to our journey as we continued to search having found the villa in the first place!"

Rustical Travel, We loved the villa and you were very helpful to make the booking process very easy and efficient. We would definitely use you again!! Everything we requested was provided. The villas was so spacious and beautiful with a great sized pool. We found the kitchen needed more equipment (decent over trays, a bread knife and other knives) and a bit of updating but other than this we were happy with everything. The grass could also have been a bit shorter in the lawn as this would be better for children to play on. Thanks again, Will"
