Perfect Location and spacious villa

We have 4 dogs so wanted somewhere private and spacious with close proximity to the beach and that’s exactly what this villa offered. Had everything we needed and it may be a bit dated but it was perfect for us. 5 min walk to beach, restaurants and amenities. Host was quick to respond but we really had no issues within our 4 week stay.

Family get together

A very nice secluded villa in a good location. We were a party of 6 adults and two babies and found the villa, pool and peaceful private garden a great place to stay. We were able to walk to local shops, the beach and restaurants which meant we didn't need to hire a car, Ubers or buses are easy if you want to travel further. Overall a great family holiday!

Another fab week in Calahonda

My sister, myself and our daughters loved our time at the villa so much last year, we just had to come again this year. This year was even better than last in some ways as we knew that we were coming to a home from home. We also had found some lovely places to visit last year which we went to again, these didn’t disappoint either 😊 A huge thank you to Gillian & Team!

Calahonda in April

As a group of three golfers, this was an ideal villa and perfect location for our week in the Costa del Sol. The lounge / dining area and outside space were perfect. Although conveniently located for the nearby main road, the garden area was very quiet. We walked to a variety of nearby restaurants. Off street parking was very helpful.

Family holiday

We stayed a family of 6 the villa is amazing the photos do not do it justice. The outside is a bit tired weeds etc around the pool but we didn’t want to go out as it’s such a beautiful setting and a lovely villa. As we went in July it was very hot I would say the closest bars etc are a 10 minute walk in the heat and the supermarket is 15 minutes and it’s very hilly even for my fit children 16 and 24 with bags of shopping. If not hiring a car I would suggest loading up on shopping and getting a taxi as it’s only 4.60 Euro. Amazing holiday amazing place.

Donn - stay May 2024

Villa was very clean, and well equipped. We had a great time. Communication with Gillian (the host) was great, we asked to book in early and this was not an issue. The location was a tab hilly for my father-in-law. There are quite a few bars and restaurants in walking distance; a mini mart and supermarket are within walking distance but if you have a few items of shopping it is advisable to jump in a cab for your return journey. We would book to stay again.

We were so impressed when we arrived and saw the villa, gardens and pool. The pool is a fantastic size with varying depths. Gardens were well kept with lots of areas to stay in the sun or go in the shade. Villa is spacious, well maintained and in a perfect location. So close to shops, restaurants and beach.

Our 2nd stay at this villa, it is ideally located for the beach, shops and restaurants. You don't need a car to get around, there are lots of bars and restaurants close by and taxis are easily available for further destinations - €20 to Fuengirola, €25 to Marbella. If you want a little bit of home Lidl and Mcdonalds are 5 mins walk away. An enjoyable holiday with lots of outdoor space and a suntrap garden and pool.

Great holiday villa

Villa was clean, pool was cleaned twice a week and done very well. As a family we sat down and tried to find faults in the villa and all we could come up with is maybe some pool lights and more outside lighting to play cards at night, We recommend this villa and trust me you won't be disappointed. The town is a very short drive or about a slow 15 min walk one way or a 10 min through the cut through.
