Hiring a car is essential, although the train stati We had a lovely holiday in this beautiful villa. Hiring a car is essential, although the train station is walking distance. Kids loved the pool. Only half an hour very easy drive to el choro lakes. The only downside was the lack of conventional oven, and the cooking equipment could do with updating. But we would happily visit again. Pepe and his lovely wife were great hosts. The pool was cleaned every day. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martin J. 6 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely house and perfect location The hosts were very helpful through our stay. The house and land was absolutely lovely. Pool area was fenced off so ideal for our young children. Restaurants within walking distance and supermarket within a 10 minute drive. Very large pool which was either heated or just very warm throughout our stay. Would definitely recommend ##### Martin J.

Wir wurden sehr nett Empfangen und eingewiesen. Der Garten der Pool waren ein Traum. Die Duschstange im Bad sowie der Abfluss ist defekt und wurde schon von Vormietern bemängelt und nicht behoben. Was von grossen Vorteil wäre ist ein Kombi backofen .Damit man kleine Gerichte oder Brötchen aufbacken kann. Ansonsten haben wir uns sehr wohl gefuehlt.
