Lovely stay
We had a 1 week stay at cumbres reales and absolutely loved our time there. The villa is lovely, very spacious. We were a family group of 6, 3 couples and felt we each had lots of privacy and space, 4 bathrooms was a treat. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you will need, we had breakfast and lunch in the villa every day and had BBQs for 4 evenings. We had all the tools needed for an array of different meals and there was lots of plates, glasses etc. Pool was lovely, turned our bikinis a little yellow though. 5 min walk down to the beach, hill is very steep, but doable, dad managed it with a recent knee replacement. Lots of bars and restaurants around: La Cabana & Cheers being our fav. A couple of bottles of water or basics wouldn’t go a miss for arrival but not a biggie. Special shout to the lovely neighbour Mourine who gave us plenty of tips and a lift to the supermarket. Thanks so much for a lovely stay would absolutely recommend.

Just perfect!
We stayed in this beautiful villa overlooking the very quiet beach and sea. The modern villa had everything we needed (both inside and out) and had breathtaking views.i can't recommend this villa highly enough.

Lovely villa with amazing views
July 1st 2023 14 nights.. Villa is very spacious with 3 ample bedrooms & 4 bathrooms . A/C works great upstairs & downstairs . The kitchen is well stocked with all the utensils & crockery and dishwasher & washing machine all worked. The pool is a good size and was cleaned twice a week , it’s the warmest pool I’ve ever been in was like a bath . The views from the pool are amazing overlooking the whole beach . Watching the sun rise come out the sea at 7am was wonderful every morning. Our neighbour next door Maureen is a very sweet older lady who was lovely . Shared a bottle of Carver on our last night . Overall a magnificent property , would definitely not hesitate to come back and stop again. There is a steep hill to the property, but we had a car for 2 weeks so the hill wasn’t a problem. Mojacar is a lovely town , great beach and plenty of restaurants. Graham & Nicola

Absolutely wonderful
The villa is so well equipped and spotlessly clean. The air con is absolutely fierce and a real welcome relief from the heat. The owners were great at communicating and answered straightaway with the couple of little queries we had whilst we were over there, and also before we arrived. Check in was so simple - just got the keys out of the key safe at the agents and returned them easily at the end of the stay. The views were wonderful, the pool was glorious, and the villa is beautiful. It is on a steep hill which is a bit of a hike to get back up at the end of an evening down in the beach bars - but it’s very doable if you take it steady! Honestly cannot use enough superlatives to describe the holiday and the villa. Only very slight niggle would be thicker curtains to enable a cheeky lie in as the light comes straight through the sheer ones that are on the bedroom windows - we’ll make sure to pack eye masks next time. There definitely will be a next time, by far the best property we have ever stayed in and will be returning in 2024 for sure. The next door neighbour is also a very lovely lady who is very amenable and happy to help with anything she can, so Thankyou Maureen and Sugar (the little dog) too :0)

Place With a View
3-years in the waiting, due to covid, but definitely worth the wait. Clean, well presented, all amenities you could wish for and a view to die for. Located at the quieter, bottom end of the resort, but still enough local bars and restaurants. A pleasant 30 minute walk will get you to a livelier part, also passing several other bars and restaurants along the way. There are a couple of small convenience stores near by, but to get to a half reasonable super market, you are looking at a 20-minute walk, or the main supermarket is a 10 to 15 minute bus ride away. The only slight negative I feel needs mentioning is the hill up to the villa, as it is very steep and a bit cruel in the heat of the day, carrying supplies back to the villa. It is definitely not for those that struggle with walking, but that is a price you pay for the magnificent views. Would definitely go again, but would hire a car, as it would help with the hill climb, shopping and visiting area. Thanks for the great stay.

Stunning property
What a fabulous house, very well equipped and so spacious, and the views from the terrace will not disappoint. The pool was much larger than expected, with a large terrace and full sun way into the evening. Plenty of sun loungers and seating, which is quite refreshing. It’s within easy walking distance from the beach, although it is a steep walk back up it is manageable. There are a good selection of restaurants nearby too. All in all we had a lovely 2 week holiday and the property was perfect. I would definitely recommend.

Ferienhaus keine Villa
Das Objekt wird für 6 Personen beworben, realistisch sind 4-5 Personen. Ein Bett mit 1,80 x 1,40 ist nicht wirklich für zwei Personen geeignet. Die Zimmer sind klein, die Schränke ohne Ablagemöglichkeit. Ablagemöglichkeiten sind zudem oftmals mit Ziergegenständen belegt. Positiv ist die gut ausgestattete Küche , der direkte Anschluss Küche Terrasse und Pool sowie die Garage welche als Lagerraum für nicht benötigte Koffer genutzt werden kann. Das Objekt wird über eine steile enge Auffahrt erschlossen. Wir hatten keine Probleme, sollte aber von weniger geübten Fahrern berücksichtigt werden. Das Abjekt wird über eine ortsansässige Agentur betreut die kompetent und hilfsbereit ist. 5 Sterne für die Agentur

Imoresionantes vistas
Las vistas desde la casa son insuperables. Relajación absoluta escuchando el romper de las olas. La casa es tal y como se ve en las fotos. Hemos pasado unos dias magníficos. Aunque hay cosas que podrian mejorar la estancia, por ejemplo el que hubiera contraventanas o cortinas que permitieran el descanso tanto por la noche como durante la siesta cambiarel colchón de la habitación central que no es nada cómodo. La terraza permite pasar veladas en ellas pero sobre todo por la tarde ya que al no disponer de pérgola o toldo por la mañana y mediodía es inviable comer fuera. A pesar de ello ñuedo decir que nos ha encantado la estancia y aprovecho también para señalar que la vecina ha sido un encanto.

PRECIOSA CASA EN MOJACAR
La casa está bien ubicada. Las vistas y amaneceres espléndidos. Se oye el romper de las olas. La piscina muy bien cuidada. La barbacoa permite disfrutar de encuentros en el exterior. El interior de la casa necesita mantenimiento: Las colchones son muy incómodos, no permiten el descanso. Los sofás están cubiertos por mantas. El aire acondicionado de la planta superior no funciona correctamente. La puerta del dormitorio principal no cierra y la del baño se atasca. Las luces en el exterior son insuficientes. Hay detalles que harían la estancia más agradable: a la llegada disponer de gel y champú para la ducha, tan solo hay gel de manos, de manera que tienes que salir a comprar para los 4 cuartos de baño si quieres ducharte tras el viaje. Las toallas son muy escasas (una por persona) y en la cocina no hay manteles y la cristalería es muy pobre (solo quedan vasos de plástico y copas dispares). Si logran solventar estos detalles la casa permitirá una estancia muy agradable.

Thank you for your review. Unfortunately, we have been unable to visit since last September due to Covid so have had to rely on the agent to make sure everything is in order. The air-conditioning is an issue that will be addressed, it probably needs servicing. I am concerned about the towel situation and the glasses. When we were there last the cupboards were full of glasses and there was one bath towel, one hand towel and one pool towel per person, changed weekly. We are visiting in a weeks time so will investigate and will look to address the areas you mentioned. Kind regards Derek and Julia

Una casa con vistas
Muy cómodo y funcional, tiene todo lo necesario para disfrutar de una tranquilas vacaciones junto al mar. Tan sólo se hemos echado de menos unas persianas, o unas contraventanas, en los dormitorios, pues la deslumbrante luz de Almería se colaba a través de las finísimas y traslúcidas cortinas, de forma que conciliar el sueño, para aquellos que acostumbren hacerlo en completa oscuridad, se vuelve muy difícil de conseguir.

Fuimos un grupo de seis amigos y la estancia fue inmejorable. La villa goza de todo lujo y comodidades que puedas desear, además se encuentra a cinco minutos de la playa andando. Sin duda recomendable para quien busque disfrutar de Mojácar y aprovechar los días de vacaciones.
