Great relaxing retreat
We are grandparents who entertained our daughter, husband and grandkids, 11 and 13. We all enjoyed the location, spaciousness and recreational activities at the villa. It was close to beaches and restaurants. Lots of bathrooms and towels provided for everyone. The kitchen was large with all needed appliances and a new washing machine was installed while we were there. What a great spot!

A Second Stay!
This is the second year in a row that we have stayed in this villa because, in our opinion, it ticks every box for an outstanding family holiday with a young family. 1.The coffee machine leaks water. 2. More baking trays would be helpful.

Perfect
From booking the Villa to being checked in and checked out the process was faultless. 4 couples stayed for a 60th birthday and golf week and a fantastic time was had by all. We had hired cars for the week but ordering the use of Villadumas taxi and ubers is so easy and cheap. The Villa itself with 5 bedrooms and 4 en suites was why we chose Villa Carlivo and the area was quiet. Perfect. Thank you Villasduma we will be back.

Villa Carlivo
Another fabulous holiday with excellent customer service from everyone we had contact with at Villas Duma. The villa itself is large, private, well kept and very well equipped, a real home from home. If your looking for a peaceful break in the sun this is the place to come. We can't think of anything that could have made it better

Second visit
Our second time staying in this villa and enjoyed this stay as much as our first. We love the location and the privacy afforded by this villa. Spotlessly clean and all facilities and more are here. Particularly love the option of the heated pool. Nothing.

We love Villa Carlivo
The villa is very nicely decorated and is always spotlessly clean. I like the fact that it's close to the village and it's unnecessary to hire a car. Helen is great with her communication - friendly and extremely efficient. She stays in touch and updates me when necessary. Orlando was very good on transfers and was on time for both. It's great that the transfers are part of the service. The pool area is lovely and we really liked the new sunbeds. Having the option to heat the pool is very welcome. We like the villa so much that we have booked again for 2022 and would like to visit again in 2023. The improvements I have suggested are minor and certainly not "complaints" and have no impact on whether we will return or not. Some of the dinner plates do not fit into the dishwasher and need to be hand-washed. I felt that if there were 10 adults staying, that there wouldn't be enough coffee cups or bowls. A review of the quantities of all delph is needed. Egg cups would be a very welcome addition as would champagne glasses. The outdoor dining table is showing quite a lot of wear and needs to be fixed or replaced. The last time we stayed, we reported on the pooling of water from the plant troughs near the outdoor dining area - this is still happening and has led to wear and tear on the tiles in this area.

Beautiful villa
The Villa was perfect for our family, children lived in the pool position & location ideal. Short walk to shop restaurant & beaches. We loved the walk along country lane to the Honey farm for meals & coffee. The Villas Duma staff were all excellent special thanks to Helen & Miguel. We shall return.

Mooi huis, netjes, goed onderhouden, zowel binnen als buiten.
Goede ontvangst door Helen, nam tijd voor uitleg van het huis en de omgeving. Mooi huis met veel badkamers en grote keuken met voldoende keukengerei. Halverwege schone handdoeken en badkamers werden schoongemaakt. Vuilniszakken geleegd. Probleem met oven was na een telefoontje met Helen binnen half uurtje gefixed door monteur. Een echte aanrader👍

Amazing!
We are due to go home today and none of us want to....the villa is beautiful. We had 3 children with is aged 5 - 7 and they had the most incredible time. The villa its self is perfect. It has everything you need to feel at home. Beds are comfy, kitchen is amazing and fully equipped, the pool is awesome,, everything is just beautiful and amazing. As for Helen, from the moment we booked to today she has been so helpful and nothing is too much trouble. As for pedro....he is brilliant, hes on call for you 24/7, he is your taxi, your guide and your help if needed. We have been so impressed with the service I have already booked to come back to another of there villas next year. We have had the most perfect family holiday. Thank you Helen and Pedro.
