Pretty Villa
We visited October13 to 20 2022. Beautiful Villa, very clean inside and out, well kept pretty gardens, but pool could be cleaner. The best views would be from the back of the villa but high trees block most of the views and all of the sun permanently from the back of the villa (unfortunately they do not reduce the constant road noise, day and night). The drive down to the villa is basically an off road, long narrow steep dirt track (close to a mile long) that you would never take a car down if you were following a sat nav address, but no address is given, you meet with the owner on a road and follow the owner down in his 4x4 (who kindly stopped a couple of times to remove rocks as he drove down it). On a possitive note, this makes the villa safe as no one is coming down tje dirt track except for the fruit pickers. Gardens definately not safe for young children as steep drops from garden perimeter (not a problem for us). Shower is a dismal dribble but its warm, so thats a plus. Supermarkets lidl and coop are only about a 10-15 minute drive away in Ribera, thank goodness for them as there are no local resturants within an hours drive open at this time of year (even though google says otherwise, trust me we tried many, at all different times and on many evenings). So if going out to eat is what you enjoy, do not visit this area at this time of year. Do not expect any welcome package at the villa (not even water, coffee, tea or milk), even though it is a couple of hours from tje airport and there is no local shop (thankfully there was loo roll and hand soap). Also we got so many mosquito bites, thought this may be because we were in the orange groves but after speaking to many other people on the journey home who suffered just as many mosquito bites, i am assuming that it must be more to do with the time of year.
