Villas Veaco Bahiazul with private pool

We were a family of six adults (3 couples) celebrating a birthday and our first family trip away. This villa was worth every penny, I was skeptical at first because I’m very aware photos can be deceiving but the property was stunning. The pool easily fit us (we even had space to play pool games) and the property is big enough for everyone to have their own breakaway space. The roof top is a great bonus and we loved stargazing from the jacuzzi. The aircon throughout the villa provided a relief from hot days out, there was an iron, hair dryer and rituals shampoo/soap. There was even a portable speaker which was a great touch! All the little thoughtful details put in by the team add such a charming touch. Cristian was incredibly helpful and gave us some great day out suggestions. I would rebook in a heartbeat just to stay in this villa again. For anyone looking for day out suggestions, I’d highly recommend renting a car and travelling out to different coasts, depending on what side of the island your on really changes the scenery and vibe. Ajuy caves, Cauldron Hondo, the viewpoint at La Pared and the beach at Morro Jable are absolute musts! If you’re looking for an excursion, book a catamaran to lobos island, the water is crystal clear and overall a quirky but beautiful experience (most offer free paella on board too!).

We only had two small comments, one night we had the power trip multiple times but the night security were happy to assist us and we were up and running in no time. The room with two single beds only had one power socket for the whole room located in the bathroom, which if you have children is not likely an issue but if adults are using this room it is worth noting.

Everything, modern clean villa in excellent setting, pool good sized and lovely and warm (paid extra for heating). 2 big supermarkets nearby, easy walking distance. Location was very quiet and surroundings were litter free and spotless.

There wasn't a villa " manual", i.e a book showing how things work, what to do if...etc. It wasn't problem as Camilla always replied to texts and calls immediately but it would be something that the owners may wish to consider. Being on the outskirts meant a car was helpful but as the villa had its own drive that wasn't an issue for us. There was a taxi pick up point as well,

The pool was excellent and the hot tub and bbq area. Great location close to shops and supermarkets. Very comfortable. Hosts were very attentive. Anything we asked was done quickly and efficiently.

We didn’t really have any issues with it but the third bedroom is accessed from outside and the ensuite doesn’t have a door which could be an issue if it is just friends staying together. Could also benefit from side tables in the third bedroom.

Positives - From the moment we booked the communication with the host was great and always responded to messages. Instructions on how to get into the property were given the day we arrived and the host then arrived to meet us and advise re cleaners visits and pool cleaning etc and how to operate the heating for the hot tub. On initial impressions the villa was great - the entrance area and security guy on the gate was super friendly and the general tidiness of the resort was good. The sofas were comfortable and the bed in main bedroom was large and comfy.

The villas are advertised as luxury and tranquil. This was not our experience sadly. We had issues with extremely noisy neighbours for 8 out of the 12 days. The villas are in close proximity and although it says they are private, the way they are designed means that any neighbours that are up on the roof terrace can look directly down into your pool/sunbathing area - sadly this was a frequent occurence and felt myself feeling rather exposed and not able to enjoy what should have been a private villa. The noise levels are a big issue, and although we did complain - it seems to be a common problem as we had 3 sets of guests either side of us during our stay and all seemed to just do what they wanted with no regard for anyone else. Constantly playing music and shouting and screaming. The walls around the pool area also amplified the sounds. It did not feel like a luxury resort in any way. Perhaps we were just extremely unlucky with ignorant guests - but if you are a couple looking for peace and quiet I would suggest you spend your money elsewhere - we have stayed in numerous private villas in the Canary Islands and never encountered so much disrespect and continual noise. There is no welcome / info pack inside the villa with regards to "quiet times" so perhaps an addition of this and some rules on respecting everyone's privacy may go a little way to helping other people not have to endure this in future? We also encountered issues with cockroaches, an unusable bathroom due to a strong sewerage smell and the bathrooms are dated and not luxury in any way. There is no mirror in the main bedroom above the dressing table. I will do a longer fuller review on trip advisor as sadly I am limited on space on here - but we were very disappointed and do not feel it was worth the money we paid sadly.
