On departing, guests will always say the experience was well beyond expectations. And it may well be an inevitable reaction for EL Molino is both a beautiful place to stay, and in and by itself, a deeply enjoyable experience.
A RECENT GUEST WROTE: "Greetings from Rye, somewhere on the Sussex coast... Your team made us so comfortable, with lovely dinners, and nothing was too much trouble. The Villa is an architectural wonder, and truly luxurious! We enjoyed our expeditions around the island and found some gorgeous beaches – particularly at Punta Arenas."
D.Russell - Rye, England
A PREVIOUS GUEST HAD THIS TO SAY
"We are finally back from Venezuela and we really enjoyed the holiday a lot - we have to congratulate you for this wonderful house - we have rarely seen something decorated with more taste and charm than this one - Emerson and Carmen have been very dedicated house masters, and we really appreciated their culinary high performance - it was so enjoyable that we did not even go out more than one or two days..."
G. Weixler - Erste Bank - Austria
Built in the renowned Ranchos de Chana, the Villa is part of an exclusive - very relaxing and safe- private development, locked-in between a low mountain range and the splendid Caribbean Sea… a niche, blessed with a pleasant tropical climate, and beautiful contrasting views.
YOUR PRIVATE HOTEL: At Villa El Molino you won't have to do any home chores. El Molino is one of the very few (World Wide) fully serviced Villas available for rent. This means first and foremost, that our House Masters will make you feel totally at home, and also, that quietly, while you relax and enjoy yourselves, a well trained couple will cater to all your needs: cooking (you can always do your own), table waiting, bar tending, room cleaning, general housekeeping, dish washing, overall maintenance, even wash your soiled clothing, plus tending to any other reasonable demand.
WANT A MASSAGE? just ask our House Masters, and a professional therapist will come to the Villa to treat your aching feet or give the most relaxing massage
MOODS AND SETTINGS: The Villa is yours, and yours alone to enjoy. It is occupied by only one party at a time, be it a family or a group of families. And no matter how many or how few you are, it’s always a pleasurable place. Its architecture plays an important role. Its design, its friendly swimming pool, its NEW, fully equipped cabana, its extended adjoining gardens, foster -in an almost magical way - both privacy and proximity, elegancy and informality, open festiveness and quiet relaxation. Each couple or age group, and the party as a whole, have multiple options at hand as the day moves on, from dawn to twilight, from the warmth of bright sunlight to the pleasant breeze of a starry, moonlit night.
AND MARGARITA IS SOMETHING ELSE... Villa El Molino is only 5 to 20 minutes away by car from the most exuberant sandy beaches, some shown at our website, with quality beachside restaurants. And 20 minutes away from Margarita's three principal cities: Porlamar, Pampatar, Juan Griego. La Asuncion, the state capital, is ten minutes away. Margarita's International airport is 30 minutes away. Finally, some of the most attractive shopping centers anywhere in the world are quite near. And so are exquisite restaurants, plus any and all services modern cities have to offer.
FACILITIES: Villa El Molino is totally equipped and furnished. The main building has five air-conditioned double bedrooms with incorporated bathrooms and closets. Two have single beds and a cot may be added. For exceptionally large groups, there is also a large sofa bed in the loft. It's social area includes two ample living rooms, two indoor terraces, a twelve person dining room, the mentioned loft, and a (1/2) bathroom for visitors. On the far end of the property, we have a second building, a fully equipped 600 ft. cabaña with a number of entertainmet facilities, and two (1/2) bathrooms.
