Beautiful house - perfect for a family holiday

The house is spacious and really well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The children (and adults!) loved the pool and the natural frog and fish ponds seem to do the trick keeping mosquitos at bay. Ricardo and his wife made us feel totally welcome - even supplying balloons for my baby granddaughter’s birthday. There were 10 of us including 3 young children and this was the perfect paradise for us to stay.

Exceptional villa and hosts

Host's Ricardo and Gertru truly make you feel welcome and make you feel like the villa belongs to you , nothing is too much trouble from contacting us to arranange food as shop's were shut ( arrived late Sunday evening) to refill for larger ,Ricardo's recommendation of Estrella damm was perfect. Views from balconies are exceptional of Mediterranean, Salobrena ,and mountains. Pool is second to none with so much thought put into it and lounging ares , you will discover great little touches and the pool shower is a lovely touch , and the evening frog choir's is amazing . villa is beautiful inside and out and exceptionally clean . Great little restaurants ( I would highly recommend restaurant la Biznaga staff and food were exceptional ) 3 large supermarkets , numerous bars and shops all within 10 minute drive . Very safe area even at night with police and security regularly patrolling. Everything about villa and grounds are amazing but not as amazing as Ricardo and Gertru who truly make you feel at home and that you have known them for years, Thank you for helping make our stay very memorable and look forward to visiting this piece of heaven again,Love and best wishes the Moore family

A little touch of Heaven

Ricardo , his Wife and Patricia were so welcoming we instantly felt at home , in fact that is the 1st thing that was said to us , "this is your home , enjoy it like your own". The Villa is stunning , bigger than the pictures portray in a stunning location with views to die for. The accommodation was of the highest standard, the pool was amazing and the whole family had a brilliant time. Everything was catered for and if you needed something , it was there. Thanks to the Pond ( fish and frogs) the eco system meant very few mozzies ( which can be an issue in hotter countries) .10 min drive to Salobrena ( shops - Lidl etc / beaches and amazing food and nigh markets, 25 mins to Nerja, this place is special and we look forard to returning. Thanks again for letting us enjoy your little piece of Heaven ... 10/10 ---Dave, Sarah & the Girls xxx :) , missing our morning swim already ! xx

Beautful and very comfortable accommodation with wonderful views

We had a wonderful stay at Ricardo's home in July 2017 - he and his family were very helpful, friendly and a pleasure to have met. The accommodation is very comfortable and well equipped. The pool was a very pleasant way of cooling off and set in a private and relaxing environment. We would highly recommend a stay here as it is also a very good base for exploring the likes of Granada - the roads are very good and only takes around 45 minutes to get into the centre of Granada. The Alhambra is an absolute must - spectacular! Beaches around Salobrena are also very pleasant - Nerja with Birriana beach and Playa Marina del Este near Almunecar was definitely worth a trip. We would like to think we will be back to this beautiful area again! Rachel, Yann, Theo, Harris & Anna

Holyday in Spain 2023

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit in diesem wunderbaren Haus. Es bietet viel Platz für eine größere Gruppe. Es gibt eine Dachterrasse auf der wir uns immer mal wieder aufgehalten haben, um den schönen Blick auf Salobrena, das Meer und die Berge zu genießen. Andere schöne Außenbereiche sind die Loungeecke unterhalb des Pools, die beiden Ebenen neben und oberhalb des Pools, wo man sich auf Liegen entspannen kann und den überdachten Essbereich. Der Pool hat eine tolle Größe und wir haben ihn oft genutzt. Wir haben uns fast nur in diesen Außenbereichen aufgehalten und es sehr genossen. Die Gastgeber Ricardo und Gertrudis haben uns sehr nett empfangen und verabschiedet und waren in allen Bereichen hilfreich. Auch die Tochter, die regelmäßig den Pool und den Außenbereich pflegte und uns Gemüse und Obst aus ihrem Garten hinstellte, war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Vielen Dank für alles! Wir können dieses Haus und seine netten Gastgeber sehr empfehlen!

Pasamos nuestras vacaciones de dos semanas con dos familias en la casa de Ricardo y su esposa. La casa está ubicada en una zona residencial muy tranquila. Es muy grande y tiene suficientes dormitorios y baños y tiene una gran vista al mar. Dentro y fuera de la casa está muy bien diseñada y muy limpia. Detrás de la casa hay un jardín con piscina privada, decorado con buen gusto. Tienes todo lo que necesitas para pasar unas buenas vacaciones. Ricardo y su esposa son muy amables y serviciales.

Wonderful

"First of all, at the whole time before our stay the communication with the owner was very good! We, a group of seven people (four adults and three childs), were warmly welcomed and felt right home! The villa is perfect for a lovely stay in Salobrena, to relax and to enjoy the landscape. The house offers everything and leaves nothing to be desired. A nice pool area, a big barbeque area and a lot of possibilities to enjoy the sunset rounded off the positive impressions. Therefore, we can only recommend this villa." I think this describes all of our positive facts and feelings. Kind Regards from all of us to Gertru and Patricia Marc.

Paradies ist eine Untertreibung

Wer ein nur für die Vermietung bestimmtes steriles Ferienhaus sucht ist hier falsch. Das Haus wird einen Großteil des Jahres vom Besitzer Ricardo und seiner Frau selbst bewohnt. Dadurch ist die Ausstattung überragend. Das Haus wurde über viele Jahre geschmackvoll eingerichtet und dadurch entdeckt man selbst nach 2 Wochen immer noch viele Kleinigkeiten, die dem Haus/Grundstück eine spezielle Note geben. Haus und Grundstück sind riesig und selbst mit 10 Personen findet man immer eine ruhige Ecke. Anzumerken ist vielleicht noch, dass das 5 Schlafzimmer(Penthouse) über eine Treppe und ohne Tür zu erreichen ist. Uns hat es nicht gestört, aber für den einen oder anderen ist die Information vielleicht hilfreich. Abgesehen von dem Haus ist Salobrena und Umgebung im Gegensatz zu anderen Teilen der Küste sehr schön und wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen. THX Ricardo for sharing your PARADIES with us.

Der Vermieter Ricardo, seine Frau und seine Tochter sind sehr freundlich. Im Garten befindet sich ein eigener Pool, zudem hat man Zugang zu eine Anlage mit Pool, Babybecken und kleinem Spielplatz. Diese befindet sich ca. 300 m vom Haus entfernt, es geht steil bergauf. Wir haben zwei wunderschöne Wochen dort verbracht mit zwei Familien.
