Spacious villa for 5 persons in Jávea with private pool

We had a very pleasant stay in Xabia. on first glance the furnishings look a little tired but everything is in good working order. The beds were very comfortable and the pool was a nice temperature. The grass in the garden could have done with a cut but its not the end of the world. The one downside is that the road outside the villa is a busy road on a hill. Access to and from the villa is tricky and there could do with being a mirror to help do this safely. We got by by having another member of our party watching the traffic on the road, but if I was doing it by myself I wouldn't have been comfortable. But overall a pleasant stay in a comfortable villa

The villa was spacious and tastefully decorated with all the amenities required for a home from home experience. Highlight the cleanliness of the house, excellent The pool and outside area was fantastic with a lovely gazebo with plenty of seating in the shade and sunshine. All in all it was a great location you do need a car but it only took us 12 minutes to walk to Arenal beach with a good range of restaurants cafes and bars. I would certainly consider a return visit. The meet and greet service was excellent and Ika was able to provide information on both the villa amenities as well as details of shops, restaurants and local events.

The villa is very well situated close to two main supermarkets and easily accessible for the Arenal. Cleanliness was very good and all basic requirements are catered for in terms of household amenities. However the house and contents are becoming a little tired and simple repairs such as loose toilet seat and misaligned cupboard doors and the safe which is inoperable due to the batteries leaking are not completed. Noise from the road could be an issue for those seeking peace and quiet as it is fairly loud. The garden is small but well maintained. The pool is good although not the 11x5 meters advertised! There is a water irrigation system installed which went off unexpectedly on our first day and saturated everyone not a huge problem but a warning would have been nice. Parking at the property is a challenge as it is semi detached and shares the drive with the neighbour meaning you park close to wall and reverse onto the main road which is a difficult manoeuvre if you’re alone. There was an issue in the fact that we booked the villa for 5 and only 4 sun beds were available this is disappointing as everything in the house caters for 6 in terms of chairs and table. The condition of the garden furniture is similar to the property in general in that it is becoming a little tired. In my opinion the property needs some updating or risks becoming a big disappointment for those booking from the pictures provided on various web sites. At the end of the first week the water level of the pool started to drop. This was reported to the owners and the subsequent investigation resulted in the pool being unusable from Wednesday as the level had dropped considerably that resulted in the filtration system no longer being operable. The owner was very apologetic but it did put a bit of a damper on our holiday as did the weather which poured hard on several occasions but unfortunately not enough to refill the pool! Overall if location is the most important thing then this villa is great just a shame about the issues.

This was just perfect for us. We focused on getting a comfortable house to stay at and our dealings with Patricia (great English) beforehand persuaded us this was the right one - it was. We travelled with two children (7 & 9), who spent a lot of the time in the pool (about 4ft to 7+ft at the deep end). Antonio (Patricia's father ?) met us and we enjoyed testing our Spanish (all three words :-) ) and sign language with him - all good fun - great guy ! Its very private - good security near the "Consum" supermarket (5 mins walk) and near the town (about 15-20 mins walk) We hired a car for the week (parking behind electric gate) and drove from Alicante airport to the property in about 1hr 10 mins. The Arenal beach is beautiful, soft sand and fun waves for the kids with body boards (we left two behind us if your kids enjoy this !) There is a well equipped kitchen. The wifi is about 3MB - perfect for streaming internet TV (Engilsh channels for the Euros !) and the odd film for the kids. We enjoyed the Lungo Mare restaurant - great pizza and also lovely pastas ! We went here three times - relaxed but good food It can be summarised by clean comfortable property in great location with a beautiful pool. We were comfortable and happy here and would return ...
