Worth a visit
Arrived in the dark & struggled to open the electric gate – fob in the key safe! The 24-hour WhatsApp didn’t respond for 12-hrs.
Villa lovely, although had major issues - electricity blew multiple times/day for 5 days first week. No response from WhatsApp (no number to call) - host was quick with emails. Said to reset meters but wouldn’t work. One night, this stopped working & had electricity only for fridges & fans (few worked). No air con in August was uncomfortable. Asked for additional fans - never came. After several asks, host sent an electrician who said we shouldn’t be flicking fuses on so often & said we were lucky not to have had a fire! Replaced box & we no problems for the rest of the stay.
Large utility room & 2nd fridge freezer.
Lots of supplies in kitchen, filtered tap & bottle of Rioja from the hosts. No oven gloves & one blunt knife.
High spec villa; few scuffed walls & outside garden lights don’t work. No cleaner in 15 days stay & requested extra pool cleans as quickly turned murky. White clothes turned yellow. Pool temperature was great.
Need taxis or hire car to get around as it is a decent walk into Santa Pola. Tried to book taxi - contacted 5 firms, none recognised address or had cars free. Uber – no chance!
Lots of mosquitos & wasps – don’t walk on the grass in bare feet!
Recycling & waste bins close to the villa - take all your own rubbish as there is not a collection.
