We've just spent 10 days in this fabulous villa. The pictures don't do it justice - it's airy and spacious, with beautiful artworks in all the rooms. Clear instructions were sent for access arrangements, and Maritsa, who looks after the house, couldn't have been nicer, despite her not having much English and us not having much Spanish! She did a thorough clean halfway through our stay, including the pool, which had suffered in the high winds and rain the day before. Everything was spotless. The main bedroom is huge and has an ensuite bathroom with a good shower, and our friend was very happy with the second bedroom/bathroom. There is a third bedroom, but we weren't using it, so it was understandably locked. The kitchen was well stocked with glasses/plates/mugs/utensils - do be careful if you're tall, we hit our heads on the ceiling over the counter several times, but we got used to it! Don't be put off by the reviews that say you need a car - if you want to visit the rest of the island then yes, but otherwise there are numerous bars, restaurants, supermarkets and a tobacco/liquor store all within a 10-minute walk (and we walk slowly), and being further away from the main street meant that our stay was blissfully quiet. The only tiny niggle was the lack of clothes hanging space - there was only one wardrobe available and it was half-length, so I couldn’t hang up my dresses. But it's a very minor issue, and we would be delighted to stay here again, if the owners will have us!

Casa McElroy is a clean and beautifully presented villa with excellent top quality appliances. The generous Welcome Pack was helpful with an intelligent selection of items. Great views of the distant ocean from the kitchen and sitting room. We would definitely return as it is our favourite villa on Lanzarote. Our first five star villa.

We have just returned from our stay. Sadly only one week. We were 4 adults and 2 children (1 being an infant). We all agreed this was an amazing villa, we have all stayed in a quite a few over the years but this villa was faultless. Honestly the pictures do not do this villa justice. It was spotlessly clean, very comfortable with everything you would need. The pool was fabulous and very much enjoyed by all. Communication with the hosts was very good . We would highly recommend and will without a doubt book again!

This is the second time we have stayed at this villa, the first time was amazing and this time was even better! The improvements the owners have made to the inside of the villa and the new pool are truly stunning. The villa is very well equipped with everything you need for a very comfortable stay. The beds are very comfortable as is the seating areas. The outside of the villa is quite simply “WOW”! The new pool is spectacular, every time I got in there it reminded me of being at a spa! The location of the villa is perfect, a short stroll to the beach and main strip with an abundance of bars, restaurants and shops. Thank you to “The Brill Girls” for yet another amazing holiday! x

2nd time staying in in this villa and once again perfect location and villa for a week's stay

From the moment we booked this finca we knew it was something special. Ana the host is a lovely lady and we were provided with so much information about the finca, detailed directions along with things to do, restaurants etc. We were lucky enough to meet Ana and Hans when there was a problem with the Wi-Fi which was fixed almost immediately. This property is situated in a quiet area with amazing views out to sea, it is filled with lots of thoughtful touches, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The outside space is large with a pool terrace with plenty of seating and a lovely garden area. You will not be disappointed if you choose to stay in this holiday property. Thank you so much xx

Thanks Kathy. Had a fantastic month in this villa. Friendly welcome from Chris and Karen who were so helpful with local information. Pool area was perfect and pool cleaned regularly. Location was perfect away from the busy strip. 10 minute walk to the pubs , restaurants and shops. 20 minute walk to old town harbour. Was cooler for first few weeks in the evenings and could perhaps have done with some form of heating. As coffee lovers would have liked a coffee machine. Overall excellent holiday in an excellent well looked after Villa.

Perfect location for visiting all parts of Puerto Del Carmen. Definitely would book again
