Perfect.
We had a short stop over in Xativa and what a place to stay at. The villa was perfectly appointed, with everything you could ask for (if only we could have stayed longer). The check-in process was straight forward and easy and the villa very comfortable. We will definitely be booking here again and would highly recommend it to everyone .

A great spot for some peace & quiet
This is a good sized house. Great pool/patio area with a garden beyond. The house is over two levels which gives a separate area for kids/separate families to work. We loved the pool, we had extremely hot weather and the a/c was a lifesaver! The area is quite quiet and off the tourist beat, even rural, Xàtiva is a small town but the castle is a great one to visit. Good value and epic views from the top.

Fantastic accommodation in a tranquil setting.
From the start, Alex was outstanding, especially in the recent circumstances and not being certain we would get there with Covid-19 restrictions on flights. Alex called regularly, messaged to keep us up to date and gave loads of information on both the villa and local area. When we arrived (late flight so nearly midnight!) he still called to make sure we were happy with everything. Beautiful, large spacious villa, absolutely spotless, fantastic pool and outdoor area, all mod cons- both the air con and pool were a godsend in, at times 33 degrees heat! Easy access to town, friendly locals and loads to do. We will book again for certain! Thanks for having us- Lisa, Stuart and Anna 😁

Lovely villa in beautiful location
Had a great fortnight in this villa which is very well equipped and caters for everything you need and is located in a beautiful area. Debbie was brilliant and on hand if you needed anything and had the place in tip top condition when we arrived and was helpful with suggestions of good restaurants etc. The pool table was good to have as the weather was quite changeable and there are plenty of games and English tv to enjoy.

Perfect escape
This place is immaculate, spacious and fully kitted out with everything you could want. We arrived to escape the Covid madness and it was perfect but consequently we didn’t go out to local tourist attractions. The pool is fantastic and the pool table had a lot of use too. The house is positioned in the middle of the most beautiful countryside great for walking and running. We even took cover from a thunder storm in a nearby Neolithic cave. Debbie was so friendly and helpful and Alex was at the end of the phone to offer advice when we were let down by the car hire at Valencia airport. A fabulous holiday and luckily we got back into the UK 20 mins before the 14 day quarantine began.

A perfect getaway
I would especially like to thank Debbie who helped make our stay really special, little things that showed genuine care and made everything hassle free. The villa itself is lovely, spacious and set in beautiful grounds. Lovely pool and plenty of sun loungers and a large umbrella for when the sun gets too much. All the mod cons you would want and plenty of entertainment for both adults and kids, we especially loved the table tennis, pool table and bbq. The air con in the bedrooms meant despite temperatures reaching 40+ we were comfortable and the house remained cool. Is close enough to town to make use of the local supermarkets and restaurants and we also went out in nearby Valencia for a splendid dinner. If you're looking for a property which is well equipped, peaceful and can accommodate a group easily then I would highly recommend. We wouldn't hesitate to return.

About the host

Hosted by Alex Grimwood

Host profile image
My parents along with my Aunt purchased Casa Alexandra in the summer of 2007 after falling in love with the town of Xativa on a chance holiday with some relatives. Having retired, they sold up in England and achieved the dream of living abroad for 7 amazing years. They made great friends, had marvellous weather and thoroughly enjoyed the experience until deciding to return home to see more of their 3 sons, of which I am one. I'm lucky enough to manage Casa Alexandra with my partner Isidora (we're both in the photo) and our brilliant housekeeper Debbie.
Alex Grimwood

Why they chose this property

Xativa is a beautiful, lively town of approx 30,000 inhabitants, the old capital of the Valencia Region. We had never heard of the town until my sister came to live here, she originally intended to make her home in Denia, but was persuaded to have a look further inland and discovered this hidden gem, we came out for a visit and immediately fell in love with the place.

The Town, originally Roman, was founded because of it’s unlimited supply of fresh water which is provided by natural springs, you will often see people filling their water bottles from one of the many fountains. The historic old town is fascinating, particularly the castle ruins which is serviced by an excellent tour. From the beautiful Basilica houses to some of the effigies that are paraded through the town on Good Friday, something not to be missed. At Christmas the tree and Nativity Garden stand for the 12 days and are never vandalised, something that would be a miracle in the U.K, the festivities conclude on the 6th Jan with the festival of the Three Kings, a lovely festival for the children. Then, in March is the Spectacular Fire Festival, when the most incredible paper mache effigies are built and then burnt, all this in the middle of a busy town.

On summer evenings the atmosphere is one of family and community, people of all ages out until very late enjoying life, certainly the older residents of Xativa are not worried about strolling around the town at midnight.

The surrounding countryside is very green, the mountains offer a a breathtaking backdrop to the orange and olive groves which are abundant here. There are lovely walks through quiet areas and rivers full of fish. Birdlife is varied and some are very pretty, a visiting friend, counted 22 different species in one morning while sitting in our garden. All this and only 30 mins drive from the sea. I could go on about the place forever, but don’t take my word for it, come and see for yourself, you will not be disappointed.

What makes this property unique

The grounds are large with a well maintained garden that seemed very rare when we were looking to buy. Most of the Villa's just seemed to have concrete or tiled verandahs; but we have lot's of grass and plants. Also, we have a big family and lot's of friends, but whoever was coming out to see us- there was always room! And, being a split level property it's easy for two families to have a bit of get away from each other for a while!

Finding the perfect area to live in was vital and with Spain being such a vast country it could have been easy to make a mistake.
What we wanted was to sample a true Spanish way of life; one which had appealed to us for a number of years. It was particularly important to find an area that wasn't besieged by tourists all year round but did provide all the amenities you would expect- great restaurants, good night-life for when our son's visit, a beautiful setting and most importantly; lovely people with a community feel. This, Xativa certainly has in abundance.
