Guest Book ----- Hi Claire: 'We really enjoyed our stay in the villa. It was the best equipped house we've ever had.
We discovered the whole region, always with a nice sunshine on our faces.

I would just like to say that the villa was fantastic ( as were Sylvia and Alan ) and having stayed at many places over the years booked over the internet i can honestly say the pictures - particularly the pool area - looked beautiful but still didn't do it justice . anyway thanks again and hopefully will be out there again some time....

Guest Book ----- Dear Claire : 'We have had a lovely week at your Villa, very relaxing and just chilling by the pool. It was more than our expectations. The views spectacular!!
Your Villa will be highly recommended to all our friends and family and we would certainly love to go again (we really didn't want to come home).'

Hi Phil!
We had a great time in Spain. Thank you. The house was very well situated for us climbers, pretty close to our favourite crag.

Guest Book ----- Dear Claire: 'We had a fantastic time. It was so relaxing. The villa was lovely, clean, well equipped and Sylvia made us so welcome. We even had a bottle of wine and some supplies on arrival. We made good use of the pool and the sunshine. In fact the villa and its surroundings were so lovely we barely felt the need to go out.'

Casa estupenda para disfrutar con la familia

Lo mejor de la casa es sin duda la piscina, para los niños es ideal y los mayores la hemos disfrutado también a tope, y el mobiliario de la piscina también estaba muy bien( varias hamacas, sillas, sombrillas y 1 mesa grande). La casa te ofrece mucha privacidad y también está bastante bien por dentro, con mucho menaje en la cocina, son en realidad 2 casas y a nosotros que somos 8, el tener 2 neveras nos ha venido genial, sobre todo porque tampoco hay supermercado grande cerca y así pudimos hacer una compra grandes. La casa de arriba tiene aire acondicionado y ventiladores y la de abajo solo ventiladores en todas las estancias, pero hemos dormido a gusto aunque por el día hacia calor, Eso si, es conveniente llevar repelente de insectos porque hay mucha vegetación alrededor de la casa y hay bastantes mosquitos. Claire ha estado siempre pendiente, y nos solucionaron rápidamente un pequeño problema que surgió. La ubicación está un poco lejos de todo en general, pero si quieres tranquilidad y privacidad es ideal. La limpieza de la casa a la llegada bien, pero mejorable sobre todo en el piso de abajo. Pero en resumen hemos estado muy a gusto y hemos disfrutado de la casa, los porches y la piscina. La recomendamos.

Week of chill time

We had a good stay, it was quiet and relaxing. There were a couple of things damaged from the previous tenant which wasn't a great impression. The lock on the door broke which meant extra vigilance was needed to avoid getting locked in or out, and the pool was not clear which we pointed out within 5 minutes of our arrival, Claire was responsive but it still took 3 days until the pool guy put something in the pool specifically to clear it. I just put it down to bad luck but I was on holiday so I didnt get worked up about it. Mosquitos made being outside during our stay after 5pm impossible when we were there end of august - but thats more of a personal tolerance and doesnt relate to Claire or the villa. We didn't take the bins when we left and Claire sent a message the following day saying she expects guests to take their own rubbish. I'm not sure what the purpose of that message was as we'd left the country by then but obviously we'd have taken the bins if the lady who checked us out and we chatted with for 15 minutes had said it was a big issue. All the message served to do was leave a bit of a bad taste and left us a bit flat after what was otherwise a chilled out holiday with some happy memories.

Un séjour agréable et reposant !

Nous avons passé 2 semaines dans la villa de Claire. Nous avons vraiment apprécié ce séjour, la maison est très bien, la piscine super agréable et très grande, on a une vue superbe sur les montagnes. Il faut faire environ 20 à 25 minutes pour aller en voiture à la plage de Gandia ou pour faire les courses dans un supermarché. La maison se situe dans un petit village calme et retiré, il faut le visiter, c'est mignon et typique, et il y a de grandes balades à pied à faire autour. Claire, la propriétaire, est très facilement joignable par whatsapp, elle répond rapidement ! Elle nous a conseillé un bar restaurant pour commander une paella, c'était très bon ! Les seuls points négatifs, ce sont les moustiques ! Mais ça personne n'y peut rien. La literie qui pourraient t être renouvelée, certains lits ne sont pas très confortables. Si nous en avons l'occasion, nous y retournerons !!

très bel endroit boisé, sans vis-à-vis et très belle piscine

La propriété et la piscine correspondent tout à fait à la description de l'annonce. Il y fait très calme. pour les restaurants, magasins, plages, il faut faire quelques kilomètres.. La propriétaire est à l'écoute et très réactive.

Quiet rural location with beautiful views

Well priced with a lovely and good sized pool. There were a few minor teething problems which were rectified and we would recommend bringing own pool towels (currently not provided) & arrive with mosquito repellents which we hadn't thought about. Would recommend visit to one of the larger supermarkets in Gandia before arriving. We had a very restful and thoroughly enjoyable week.

Excelente

Todo perfecto, desde la entrada a la estancia hasta la salida de la misma. Hemos pasado unos días increíbles: la casa estaba situada en un lugar bastante tranquilo, lo cual te permitía poder descansar con total tranquilidad. Quisiera destacar el trato de la anfitriona, Claire, el cual fue magnífico en todo momento; estando presente siempre para cualquier problema que pudiese surgir, o incluso guiarnos a la hora de tener que movernos por la zona. Como dato curioso, puesto que nos hizo mucha gracia, todos los días nos despertaba (a las cinco de la mañana), un gallo situado en una granja cercana a la vivienda. Sin duda lo recomendamos.

Erholsamer Urlaub

Das Haus liegt sehr schön im Wald mit Blick auf die Berge und hat einen großen Pool, Klimaanlage und alles, was man braucht. Außerdem hat uns das Interieur gefallen. Das Haus wirkte nicht wie eine spartanisch eingerichtete Ferienwohnung, sondern wie ein geschmackvolles Zuhause. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Tranquility of the mountain landscape, beautiful views, amazing pool, comfortable house

Lovely stay on this peaceful location near two villages with panoramic viewsea across the mountains. House is set up for practical living......properly equipped kitchen, comfortable living area across a spacious ground and first floor apartments. Lovely pool and loads of seating/ tables. Easy drive to local beaches (we mainly went south of Gandia because it was quieter). We all loved it (family with daughters aged 9, 16, 19)

Spanien

Super bolig, med plads til mange. Der er mulighed for at slappe helt af. Godt internet til trods for at der var flere på. Fine senge dog ikke så store . Det er ikke så nemt at være lokal, da det er lidt uden for “alt” men et skønt sted. Dejlig pool. Vi havde et egern der besøgte os tit.

Superbes Vacances

Agréables vacances dans la villa, superbe piscine et bien entretenue par Alan, le régisseur. La vue sur la vallée est superbe car la Villa est en hauteur, ombragée et l'environnement est calme. La cuisine est bien équipée et fonctionnelle. Le barbecue est tout à fait correct et en très bon état. Les ventilateurs et la climatisation nous ont permis de dormir au frais malgré une température extérieure de 28 degrés. Je garde de côté cette location pour revenir ou la proposer à des amis.

A Perfect Getaway Retreat

This is the ideal place for getting away from it all! Tranquil, peaceful and in a beautiful setting overlooking a traditional Spanish village and a lovely green valley. We would highly recommend this villa if you need to recharge your batteries and escape all the hustle and bustle of a busy life. The rooms and décor are of a pleasant and acceptable level and very clean. Steve and June (who met us on arrival) were most welcoming and extremely helpful—thanks. The swimming pool was excellent and most refreshing, and is in the sun all day long. Lots of books to read—thanks—and many dvds watch. Unless there is a fiesta on in the village, then this may not suit those with teenaged children, though there is plenty to do and see within a short driving distance. The beaches of Gandia are beautiful and there are plenty of shops and places of interest, but again you need to drive. However, to be honest we spent most of our time at the villa simply enjoying the peace and quiet. Thank you Phil and Claire for offering this villa for rent, we shall return again! Sandra

Disappointed to say the least!

Overall impression can only be one of total dismay. My mother booked this for two weeks vacation thinking it may be her "last holiday" and wanted it to be special. As she resides in Spain we had to travel over to transport her here. After a disaster trying to find the place we were met by June and Steve otherwise the "holiday" would never have commenced. We were quickly shown around and left by the friendly managers. We were to find the reason for their hasty departure very soon. Casa Vernisa is where parents had set their minds on staying on the lower floos for ease as mum is recovering from operation. This was unhabitable due to overwhelming smell of damp and not heated at all apat from a heater June and Steve had left in both apartments. They also left an extra throw for parents bed due to cold. We later discovered this to be very damp and covered in black mould. Concensus on 1st night was that we all would have to stay in Casa Clara. The photographs on this site must have been when works had first been completed several years ago as believe me everything has detioriated and requires an overhaul. We spent three days of our "holiday" cleaning and washing bedding that has seen better days and had an awful smell to it. Not only that matress covers were grey and had not been changed for years, even to the point of being full of sand and sweet wrappers from previous tenants. Shower room glass partition was full of scum and all grouting was dirty. All opening windows were disgusting. Ovens not working correctly and never been cleaned for years...........................the list is endless. Not started on pool area yet. The whole experience was not enjoyable and hope when the owners do return they can do somethin about it. If it had not been for booking into a hotel in Valencia for two night and cutting holiday short by several days as it became unbearable I think we would have been seriously ill staying in this abode.

The Perfect Getaway

If you want night life and loud music, go some where else. If you want a little bit of Shangri La where you can chill out and heal your soul this is perfect. The villa is well appointed and the bonus of a library of books in the upper apartment was a real bonus as an avid reader. Customer service is superb, before the visit with good communications, during with a couple of queries we had, and afterwards returning our deposit quickly and checking we had had a good time. Plenty of information is left in the villa about local facilities and places to go and thing to do. A welcome pack was provided giving us the basics to make some food and drinks. This was especially welcome as we arrived on a Sunday when all stores in the region are closed. The pool is superb and we used it daily. Families with very young children should be aware that the shallow end is still fairly deep. Our 8 year old (129cm tall) was up to the top of his chest at the bottom of the walk in steps. This was not a problem for us as he can swim reasonably well without arm bands etc but little ones a few years younger will be out of their depth once they are off the steps. I would (and have) recommended this property to friends and indeed we are looking to come back again already. This was actually our second visit in two years (which says a great deal in and of itself), the first time we just had Casa Clara but there was no-one in Casa Vernissa, this time we booked the whole Villa to take my daughter and boyfriend as well. They had the bottom apartment (Casa Vernissa) and once in either apartment, you are not intruded upon by noise from the other. As stated above, there is no major nightlife to speak of, but there are a couple of bars/restaurants in the village. We came here looking for a beautiful peaceful place to be in the evening and to wake up in and we got it. The location is within an hour of Valencia to the North and Benidorm to the South however making it easy if you have a car (and you need one to get here) to visit all sorts of cultural and touristy places which we did daily. The nearest beach is at the town of Gandia 10km away but is one of the nicest and cleanest beaches I have ever seen in my life and can highly recommend it. The beach at Olivia is even better and definitely worth a visit if that's what you are looking for. In summary, Villa Clara is a peaceful haven and even more beautiful in real life than the photos show. Recommended.
