Large, well-kept house with beautiful views
The house is huge. Amazing views over the coast from the kitchen and the dining/ balcony area. Really well-kept - very clean - everything you need in the kitchen. Loads of games in the lounge, plus a big TV and lots of DVDs. And they gave us a welcome hamper which was a lovely touch.
The villa is managed by property agents who have an office in La Herradura. That meant that when we found the kettle didn't work, they drove up to the house to deliver a new one within a day.
I'd recommend that you ask the owners to provide fans for the two bedrooms (the master bedroom has its own in-built fan) because the rooms get really hot (we went in July).
The downside to the property is that it's a long walk to La Herradura - and a really steep walk back again. I'm not convinced it's 25 minutes, as suggested in the blurb. So you really have to drive - and then parking in La Herradura isn't easy in high season.
Also, the nearby shared pool is a great size and located in an absolutely beautiful setting (views of the mountains and coast), but we found it wasn't very clean. When we arrived there was food waste and wild animal droppings near the pool side. The pool got progressively more dirty as the week went by but it didn't get cleaned while we were staying there.
