Des vacances reposantes et ensoleillées dans une villa parfaite !

Nous venons de passer 15 jours reposants dans cette villa parfaite ! Il ne manque plus qu'une petite piscine 😉. Jos nous a magnifiquement accueillis. Très agréable, il nous avait par ailleurs préparé de délicates attentions. La maison est parfaitement conforme à l'annonce si ce n'est que par serviettes de bain, il faut comprendre serviettes de toilette. Mais je m'en étais doutée. 3 terrasses dont une magnifique terrasse sur le toit. 2 salles de bain, 3 wc. Une grande cuisine. Un petit patio avec toute la place nécessaire pour étendre son linge (ce n'est pas toujours le cas)... Bref un confort indéniable ! Le quartier est très calme. Parfait pour des vacances farniente. Pour les visites, la voiture est nécessaire par contre...

A very nice holiday faily house in Andalusia

The Casa Vista in Lagos is a very nice rental house for any summer family holliday in Andalusia. The house is very clean and well equiped with everything that a family needs for its summer holliday! The house in Lagos is very quiet with a beautiful view on the coast and the litte mountains. The place is ideal to go to the beaches around Nerja but also to visit the famous towns of Granada, Sevilla, Malaga or Ronda....

Super Lage als Ausgangspunkt für die Umgebung

Wir (2Erw+2Kinder (5+1)) waren für 10 Tage in dem Haus. Das Haus liegt schön oberhalb dem Ort Lagos. Aus jedem Zimmer hat einen kompletten Meerblick. Das Haus ist noch sehr neu und sehr gut ausgestattet. Die Liebe zum Detail der Eigentümer auf der einen, steht Eindruck der "Nichtfertigkeit" des Hauses gegenüber. So sind z.B. in den Bädern überall noch Schutzfolien auf Leisten und Abdeckungen. Teilweise ist in den Bädern (insbesondere im Hauptschlafzimmer mit Bad en Suite) die Kanalisation wahrnehmbar. Wir haben und trotzdem sehr wohl gefühlt und können das Haus rundum empfehlen, wenn die vorgenannten Dinge nicht permanent werden.

Ein wunderbares Haus mit Blick übers Mittelmeer

Ein tolles, sehr gepflegtes Haus mit allem Zubehör und großer Dachterrasse. Die Vermieter sind sehr nett und haben uns auch nach Mitternacht noch die Tür geöffnet. In 5 Minuten ist man am Steinstrand, wo man schön schnorcheln kann. Zum Sandstrand sind es 5 Minuten mit dem Auto. Unser "Geheimtipp": Nerja.

Geoßartiges Ferienhaus

Ein wunderschönes Haus mit toller Dachterasse von der man aus einen atemberaubenden Blick auf Meer und Natur hat. Es hat uns hier sehr gefallen und wir konnten uns einfach wohlfühlen. Man brauch von hier aus auch nicht weit mit dem Auto fahren um ein geeignetes Badeziel zu erreichen, wie z.B. Nerja mit seinem wunderschönen Strand wo es Höhlen und einem Wasserfall. Im Ganzen sind wir sehr zufrieden mit dem ganzen Urlaub gewesen.

Beautiful luxery house

We stayed over in this beautiful house for 2 weeks. The welcome of the landlord was very nice and in the house we already found some groceries like water, soda, and some food. If you like sun you could go to the roof terras and if it was time for some shade you could sit outside downstairs. The house was very clean and comfortable. In the kitchen all the things you need were there. The showers were perfect. And the airco in all of the rooms was very welcome when needed. The neighborhood is beautiful, nice places just a few kilometers away with loads of restaurants and beautiful beaches. Malaga, Granada and some other major cities are easy to be reached and surely worth a visit. Another city closeby is Nerja. Once we discovered this city and the beaches overthere it looked like you were in a movie. We certainly recommend the house and Andalusia.
