We booked Villa Bondo last minute after being let down on another property and how we landed on our feet! We still cannot believe our luck. This villa is simply stunning and a complete ho e from home. The hosts, Sheila and Alex, provided excellent information on the villa, the immediate area, the resort and included recommendations for restaurants, days out etc. We felt very welcome before we arrived at the villa and this increased tenfold when we turned the key in the door. A most generous welcome pack was waiting for us meaning we did not have to rush to the shops. We found the villa to be exceptionally clean, very well appointed with great decor, furnishings and absolutely everything we needed for a very relaxing holiday. What sets this apart from other villas? It is literally a home, not a holiday let. Everything is provided including access to the owners’ bikes, games, books, owners’ food and drink, kitchen equipment is second to none and special little touches like boxes of tissues, toiletries in bathrooms, kitchen cleaning products.
Early mornings were spent on the roof terrace with our first brew of the day looking at stunning views whilst soaking up the sun. Breakfast was eaten outside either in the shaded seated area on the terrace or at the table in the sun then, unless we were walking or cycling, long days lying in the sun by the pool before cooling off by taking a dip in the excellent heated pool.
We ate out every evening in one of the many restaurants in the town centre or near the harbour. It is a 10/15 minute walk to the start of the Main Street and a 30 minute walk to the harbour area. Similarly you can walk to the Parque Naturel including the dunes and stunning Flag Beach in around 20/30 minutes. There are several supermarkets all within walking distance and the water park is a 10 minute walk away so the villa is a perfect base for families without necessarily having to hire a car.
I cannot emphasise enough what a brilliant holiday we had at Villa Bondo. Sheila and Alex are excellent, generous hosts who genuinely want their guests to have an amazing holiday. We loved their gem of a villa and are already looking at dates for our next booking. Excellent!
