Guest comments
"Your villa is fabulous, very well equipped and in a lovely location. The twin beds are very comfortable and you have obviously bought quality. My wife and I love your taste in decor. As you may have noticed we have only good things to say about your villa. We speculate we may go again this December so no doubt we will be in touch again. We loved Lanzarote and had a wonderful time, thanks in part to your lovely villa". Brian & Mags Kinsey, Cheshire, UK. (5–13 Dec'09)
"I did want to thank you so much for the opportunity of staying in your fabulous villa in September. I cannot express how fantastic our holiday was and that was largely due to staying in your villa. Everything from the decor, pool, location and amenities were first class and mentally we had moved in for the time we were there. If we do return to Lanzarote in the future I do hope we would be able to rent your villa again”. Helen Painter, Surrey, UK. (6–24 Sept'09)
Owner profile
About the owner
Hi, we are Dolores & Jimmie Rogan and we have lived all our married life in a small village in North County Dublin, Ireland. Over the years we talked about buying a home in the sun with the intention of someday retiring there or, at least spending the very bleakest months (January to March) of the year there. We first visited Lanzarote in 2000 when we holidayed there with our daughter and my parents.Over the following years we holidayed there many times and fell in love with the Island.
Year purchased: 2006
Why the owner chose a home in this location
There were many reasons why we decided to purchase in Lanzarote–flight time is just under 4 hours, the time zone is the same, the Island is so beautiful and unspoilt and of course the guaranteed sunshine all year round.What more could a body ask for! We decided on Playa Blanca well, simply because none of the other resorts could compete.Playa Blanca has it all - low rise, well planned resort with the most breath-taking views and beaches and just 25 minutes drive from the airport.A few minutes walk from the coastline which hosts 2 beaches–Playa Montana and Flamingo and the local shops are just around the corner.The town of Playa Blanca is a 5 minute drive away.When we viewed the property with its location just a few minutes from the coast we just knew this was what we had been looking for.
Unique benefits of the property
Villa Dolores, detached and built to a very high specification, large garden, private pool (electrically heated), private parking, marble flooring throughout and high ceilings in the lounge and master bedroom to give a light and airy feeling.We decorated the interior ourselves and we visit regularly to upkeep the property and ensure it is maintained at the luxury standard that we want and would expect if we were renting.We have engaged the services of a local English speaking villa management company and our housekeepers Karen & Mike take as much pride in the Villa as we do.Should you choose to rent with us we can assure you that we will look after you very well as we appreciate that your holiday is important to you.Villa Dolores offers peace and tranquility and is a ‘Home Away From Home'
