We spent several weeks here with family, including our young granddaughter. Overall, I’d give the house 4 stars and María, our agent, an unequivocal 5.The outdoor space was the highlight. Beautiful landscaping, a wonderful pool, outdoor kitchen and terrace dining gave me exactly the European-summer experience I had imagined. The gardener and pool service kept everything beautiful, and the space was fantastic for entertaining, family time and our granddaughter.The house itself needs some investment. Some furniture felt old, inexpensive or rundown, and we had to purchase basics such as chopping boards, a dustpan/broom and a fan when the AC broke. More blankets would also have been appreciated. These are small things, but at this price point and for a longer stay, they matter.Our biggest issue was location. Our original booking was described as only blocks from the beach, but we were later told this property was in the mountains. We were informed, but by then comparable beach properties at our price were gone. This added the expense and inconvenience of a rental car, gas, parking and driving time! Sangria!María, however, was phenomenal, responsive, communicative and supportive whenever something went wrong. I would absolutely rent through her again.Would I choose this house again? Probably not. Next time I’d choose something closer to the beach. But for someone wanting privacy, gorgeous outdoor living and a beautiful Spanish hillside setting, this is a lovely property.
