Villa Cifre Alcudia

The house is wonderful and very well located in a quiet area but very close to Alcudia old town. Swimming pool and Jacuzzi are amazing. House is well equiped. Tony gave us a lot of good advice about the best places in the island. We will for sure recommend this villa. some lights were missing. It will be good to check this kind of stuff before the customer arrives. Otherwise nothing else to say... Perfect

Lovely holiday at this villa, the pool and outdoor space were great and it’s not overlooked.

The location The outdoor space Beds were very uncomfortable Just generally a bit under-invested in terms of the facilities

We booked the villa from the photo's; understanding that all written reviews can be considered subjective in their approach, a "Hope for the best" approach, if it looks good and the photos do, it must be good right!! The villa suited our physical needs, but time has taken its toll and its looking well warn in some of the more used areas. Our arrival was greeted with a damp aroma which never really left the property despite our ventilating it, coupled with damp feeling bed sheets throughout our stay. Damp and mould dominated the bathrooms. It's a villa that provides you with very little of a WOW factor on the inside, left devoid of all but the basic of things, half a toilet roll, three dishwasher tablets and a can of Cockroach spray...yes you read right, Cockroach spray! This leads us onto the cleanliness; let's just say standards can differ and whilst we don't consider ourselves to be too OCD about this whilst on holiday, in basics terms, the villa was filthy and gave the impression a deep clean hadn't taken place in years. Previous reviews rated cleanliness as a "3", all I can say is they must have written their reviews whilst sampling the locally purchased cheap wine, truly it's a 1 at best. The pool was great for the first couple of days, the promise of a mid-week clean (by the agent) never materialised and by day 5 the pool was only usable if you walked through the debris of dead bug bodies now collected on the bottom and in each corner. A pool cleaning net was provided which measured 4ft for a 2.2m deep pool (perhaps imperial never made it big in Spain!). The outside BBQ was considered a "no Go" area, as I refused to clean it of the build up of "who knows what"on it? With all of this said, we never allow "The Unexpected" to spoil our holiday, but we had to submit and clean areas of the villa we wanted to use, simply for our own satisfaction and for our well being. If you are prepared to accept damp, musty, dirty conditions, then this is the villa for you, you wont be disappointed, just think Tom & Barbara "The Good Life" (old British TV program) and you'll get the measure of this place. There were highlights, our ability to laugh at our incompetence to use the cooker until shown by the third person visiting (owner themselves) and the next doors cockerel with a broken in-built time clock, 06:30, 13:00, 15:00 19:00 etc... I am sorry Homeaway, in all the years we have been using you, this is by far the biggest disappointment....
