This is an excellent villa, occupying the spacious ground floor of a large impressive villa with lovely aspect over olive trees down to Lake Vinuela, and views toward Maroma. In Axarquia it is all about the view, and you certainly have an excellent view here.
The villa booking process with Keith was straightforward, friendly and prompt, clearly an eye for good service and attention to detail.
The villa is easily found off the main road once over the Vinuela dam, a mostly tarmac track without any scary bits with lots of parking outside.
Living room and kitchen are huge, a modern very well equipped kitchen and appliances, ice maker fridge freezer and large 6 seater dining table. Two large sofas in the living room, tv, immediately outside on the patio is another dining table, we ate there most evenings. We star gazed, watched the bats at night and eagles through the day. Superb.
The bedrooms adjoin the living room area from either side, so well separated for your privacy, two doubles both en suite, a twin and useful bathroom to the rear of the ground floor. White fluffy towels are provided.
There is a travel cot and high chair and so many games, books and DVDs which was great as we travelled with our 2 young grandsons.
A few steps downhill to the lovely pool area, and fabulous summer house. We had hot weather so it wasn’t really used apart from storing inflatables in there. Also has a shower and a loo. Comfortable sun beds, umbrellas and loads of beach towels. Outside the summer house is an excellent outside kitchen and full set of plates, crockery and glasses for outside use, and a large charcoal BBQ and large dining table under a shady gazebo. We ate there some evenings.
It is worth noting the welcome pack arranged via Keith is the best we have had, bread, eggs, ham, yoghurt, butter, milk, wine, cakes, even cornflakes but also the villa isn’t totally bare when you arrive, so you will find olive oil, vinegar, salt & pepper, refuse bags, bleach and dishwasher tablets. Nothing worse than having to buy everything having turned up to a bare rental villa, not an issue here as Keith has it all covered. Everything has been so carefully thought about.
Dealing with Keith has been a pleasure, and I wouldn’t have any issue recommending his lovely property to others. We had a wonderful holiday so thank you very much.
