Our family of four, including two teenagers, stayed for 12 nights at the end of July and had a wonderful time at this lovely villa. As others before have mentioned, communication with David leading up to the trip was excellent and payment arrangements were very easy.
Our flight was delayed so we were very grateful that local hosts Jenny and Richard had been tracking our arrival time and were there to make the arrival process so straight forward.
This was our fifth villa holiday in Europe and David’s villa was the cleanest, best equipped, maintained and furnished of them all. The pool was excellent and regularly maintained by Margaret and Brian who made sure that the chlorine levels were appropriate given the temperatures that we enjoyed (33˚C + every day!). Even though it was so hot, we all still enjoyed making use of the hot tub in the evening and it was a great place to be as the sun set.
Our plan was to spend most of our holiday pool-side, so we did not venture out too often. Arboleas village has a couple of cafes that we visited and a small bakery. We did all of our food shopping during our stay in the Corivan supermarket, which was more than adequate. We did go out for a couple of evening meals to Garrucha and Mojacar and the teens enjoyed browsing the Garrucha night market. Other than that, we spent a half day in Nijar to browse the pottery shops and wander around the the village.
Jenny and Richard were extremely accommodating again to be there at our departure at 6am and made sure that we got away in good time to catch our flight back.
We enjoy visiting different areas for each holiday, so we may not venture back to this region for a while, but we will certainly recommend this villa to friends and family.
