Reviews Puerto Calero Villas

We have just returned from a 2 week holiday in Lanzarote. Our party consisted of 2 families of 2 adults and 2 children in each. So we booked a four bedroom villa in Puerto Calero. We had a wonderful time. The villa was excellent. We were met on arrival by Maria who looks after the villa for the owners. She was very sweet and showed us around the villa and the outside areas. We were able to pay for the majority of the booking fee on arrival, as well as a refundable security bond and something for a final clean at the end of the holiday. I really like this method of payment. People talk a lot these days about paying in a secure manner.  But what is more secure than not paying up front for the holiday, and instead paying for it once you have seen the property.  No chance of fraud in this scenario.  The only downside is having to carry around large wads of cash, which can be a bit nerve racking. The villa was spotlessly clean when we arrived and the outside areas are well maintained. The pool was quite large and heated. There were plenty of sun loungers, so we could all stretch out together if we fancied it. There was also a barbeque area, which we made good use of. The villa had sea views from the upper terrace, which was fantastic. Maria told us that there was no-one arriving on the day we left and as we had a late flight, she said we could stay on in the villa on departure day. That was really great and made quite a difference to our enjoyment at the end of the holiday.  There is nothing worse than having to lug around cases all day.

Reviews Las Americas Villas Tenerife

Have just returned from a fantastic holiday with my wife, sister-in-law and her partner. We stayed in a three bedroom villa in the centre of Las Americas. I was quite surprised to find a villa in such a perfect location, as generally you find they are located further back from the front line.  Usually it is the hotels and apartment complexes that get the prime locations in the tourist resorts in Tenerife. The villa enjoyed a fantastic sea view from the upstairs terrace. It had a private heated pool with a garden and plenty of sun loungers. The villa was infact everything we hoped for and more. We had a lovely time. The villa was well equipped with a dishwasher and washing machine. There was wifi internet access and satellite TV including English channels. The owners also provided a DVD player with a selection of some very good films, which we enjoyed watching, including Return to Me with Minnie Driver, which was a bit of a weepy. As the situation was so good, it was easy to walk out to access all the amenities. There were supermarkets, restaurants and bars all within easy reach. We also spent a couple of days on the beach. But most days we spent lazing around the pool. We all found the beds were very comfortable.  That is very important as it can ruin a holiday if you are deprived of sleep. The owners had left a welcome pack which included a box of chocolates. That was a surprise and a very nice touch. We booked through Holidays 4U, who looked after us very well.

Reviews Playa Blanca Villas Lanzarote

We usually holiday in Playa Blanca in Lanzarote. We have just returned from a 2 week stay in a small villa close to the Marina Rubicon. We travelled as a couple. We will probably end up retiring in Lanzarote as we love it so much. Although, I am glad to say that is a few decades away yet. We booked our villa this time through Holidays 4U. It was the first time we had used this company, although we enquired last year, but there was no availability. The villa was very comfortable and well equipped. The owners have installed wifi internet and satellite TV. The wifi was very useful. I think all owners should make sure this is available. It is a modern day basic and should not be overlooked. Infact this is one of the main factors that points out our choice of villas. The other very important factor for us is  a heated pool.  As you can imagine, this villa has one. The villa was also in a great location as everything was within easy walking distance including the marina where there are a wide selection of shops, restaurants and bars. The villa was laid out over 2 levels and enjoys sea views from the upstairs balcony.  It was lovely to sit out in the evening with a glass of gin and tonic and to watch the sun setting across the ocean. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend our villa to other guests and also the company Holidays 4U, who were very professional and efficient in dealing with our holiday.

Reviews of Villas in Nerja Spain

We have just returned from a marvellous holiday. We were staying in a townhouse in Nerja on an urbanisation with a communal pool. This suited us very well as we are a family of 2 adults and 3 children. Our children much prefer a holiday on a complex where they can meet other children and make friends, rather than staying in a villa with a private pool, where they don’t get the opportunity to meet new children. The accommodation was very well equipped. We like to eat in most nights. This was very easy as there were plenty of pots and pans and utensils in the kitchen. We honestly didn’t feel anything was missing. There was also a dishwasher, which was very nice. Actually we don’t have one at home, so this was a real blessing for our holiday. The villa was very clean when we arrived. The key had been left in a key safe. We arrived in the afternoon, so it was very easy to find the villa, as it was still daylight. Inside the owner had left the emergency contact numbers for the local agent, in case we needed anything during our stay. The pool and gardens of the complex are very well maintained. It is a really pretty area. We were also very lucky with the weather. It was sunny most of the time. There was only one day which was a bit cloudy. But it never rained. There was a supermarket in walking distance and the bus service seemed quite regular although we didn’t get to use it. We booked the villa through Holidays 4U. Would definitely come back again. We had a great time.

Reviews of Fanabe Villas in Tenerife

 

I stayed in a lovely villa in Fanabe for 2 weeks earlier this month. I booked through Karen from Holidays 4U. The villa was fantastic. We had a great holiday. The villa was spacious, modern and very comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped and there was an excellent barbeque outside. We wanted to have a relaxing holiday with lots of home cooking, as my husband wanted some chill out time after having an operation. So it was great that cooking meals was so easier. There was a dishwasher as well which we used a lot. The cupboards had everything we felt we needed including pots and pans, dishes and cutlery and it was all good quality as well. There were lots of sun loungers around the pool which we also made great use of. The villa was very clean and we didn’t see one cockroaach in the villa, or they were in evidence outside on the street.  The area is residential and therefore quiet. But there were still restaurants and shops in walking distance. Or on some occasions we took a taxi down to the sea front where there are plenty of amenities. It is the first time that we have rented this particular villa. But we have stayed in villas in Fanabe before and we are all really keen on this area. We all definitely feel that we would be happy to book this villa again if it is available for the dates of our next holiday.  Or if not, we would be happy to book another villa from Holidays 4U, as they all seem to be of a very high standard and Karen is very trustworthy.

Reviews of Victoria Court Apartments Tenerife

 

We had a fabulous stay on Victoria Court 1 this month. We stayed in a one bedroom apartment which we booked through Karen Durant from Holidays 4U. Victoria Court is a fantastic complex.  It is our complex of choice everytime. We travelled as a couple. We love the area and the peacefulness of the complex.  It is always very relaxing and quiet around the pool.  The pool and the gardens are very well maintained, as well as being very clean. The beach was only a 3 minute walk from the complex and restaurants and bars are also very close by.  The supermarket and the local market were also a short walk away. You certainly don’t need a car if staying on this complex. The food on site is also very good and the staff are very friendly. We stayed in a one bedroom apartment which was up a few flights of steps, but this wasn’t a problem for us. We thought the apartment was in a good position as it had a sea view and a sunny balcony. The service for collecting the key was very straightforward. We were on a late flight, but we easily grabbed a taxi at the airport which took us straight to the complex. After finding our apartment (we had to ask the security guard for a bit of help: he was really nice and walked with us to show us the way), the key had been left in a key safe outside the apartment door. The TV had satellite channels which included English as well as some other language channels.

Reviews of Ocean Park Apartments in Tenerife

We booked a fantastic privately owned apartment on Ocean Park recently, which we found through Karen from Holidays 4U. It was the first time that we had stayed on this complex, but we knew we liked the area.  We would give the complex a big thumbs up now. The pool is big and the apartment was in a good location as it overlooked the pool. We found the apartment to be spotless when we arrived. There was even free wifi in the apartment and satellite TV including English channels. There was also a DVD player with a selection of films including Passengers with Anne Hathaway, which I really enjoyed. We did have one problem with the apartment.  The microwave stopped working. But we just called the local number which had been left in the apartment, and Barry brought us a new one the next day.  What a good service! We were travelling as a family  consisting of  3 adults and 2 children. So we used the double bed in the master bedroom, the 2 single beds in the 2nd bedroom as well as the sofa bed. All of the beds were comfortable, even the sofa bed. The complex is very well located as it is only a 5 minute walk to the beach, restaurants and bars, as well as supermarkets. It was nice to relax on the balcony and watch other guests including our own children swimming in the pool. It is quite a quiet complex which suited us as we wanted to have a relaxing holiday. The only thing that I would recommend to the owner, is that it would have been nice to have a couple of sun loungers on the balcony.  But it didn’t spoil anything for us. We had a fabulous holiday, and would definitely re-book this apartment or another on this complex.

Reviews of Villas in Callao Salvaje, Tenerife

 

We booked a large villa in Callao Salvaje Tenerife to celebrate my father’s 90th birthday. We were therefore an extended family group consisting of my parents, my sister and her family and my family. It meant we were a total of 8 people. The villa was therefore very spacious for our needs, as there were a total of five bedrooms. It meant that both daughters could have their own rooms, which was very nice. We were met on arrival by the owner of the villa, who showed us around and showed us how a few things operated. The outside area consisted of a heated pool and a hot tub. There was also a barbeque and alfresco dining area. The villa was very clean when we arrived and the owner had even left us a welcome pack which included some wine and beers. That was very welcome on our first night as we arrived quite late. The kitchen was very spacious, allowing room for several cooks in the family.  How lucky are we.  But it was good to have the dishwasher, as it was my job to clear the dishes after dinner.  The only negative I would say was that the floor inside the villa was marble tiles which were very shiny and very slippy when wet. It was a bit like a skating rink. We had to be very careful not to walk inside with wet feet. My husband did slip over once but luckily he didn’t hurt himself. The villa also had unlimited wifi, which we really needed. My husband runs a business and he needs to keep an eye on emails, even if not working.

Reviews of Apartments in Playa Paraiso Tenerife

 

We have just returned after a wonderful holiday in Playa Paraiso in Costa Adeje Tenerife. We stayed in a two bedroom apartment which we booked through Karen from Holidays 4U.  The apartment was excellent, very well equipped and in lovely decorative order. We were met on arrival by Lara who was very nice and spoke very good English (although English was clearly not her native language). She showed us the apartment and collected the booking fee from us. She took the time to show us how the satellite TV worked and where the code for the wifi internet was. It was great that the apartment had a dishwasher. That helps to minimise the housework required while on holiday. There was also a washing machine. So we were able to wash our towels after a day at the beach, which was also very handy. We hired a car, which I would recommend, as Playa Paraiso is a much quieter resort than the busier Las Americas or Los Cristianos. We visited Siam Park, which was a short drive away.  We had lots of fun there. It was probably the best day of the whole holiday.  There is a small selection of bars, restaurants and shops in Playa Paraiso. We made sure to sample them all. We loved relaxing on the balcony in the evening with a gin and tonic or two, as the apartment has amazing sea views.  Watching the sunset was amazing. Would definitely return to this apartment and if not available would hope to book something through Holidays 4U again, as the service was very efficient and most importantly they are reliable and professional.

Reviews of Villas in Costa Adeje Tenerife

 

We really enjoyed our holiday this month. We booked a villa in the Del Duque area of Costa Adeje in Tenerife, through Karen Durant from Holidays4u.org.  The villa was spacious, modern and comfortable. We had a private heated pool, with sun loungers around the pool. It’s where we spent most of the time,  just relaxing, soaking up the sun, the occasional cocktail, reading a book and when it got to hot, a plunge in the pool.  It was perfect! Everything was really close. The villa was in the best location. It’s why these villas are not the cheapest. It was close to the beach, restaurants, the Del Duque Shopping Centre, bars etc. Our party was made up of 4 adults and 4 children (2 families). The villa had four bedrooms, one of which had an ensuite bathroom. All the beds were very comfortable. The owners had been very thoughtful as there were lots of toys and games for the children. There was also a selection of movies including childrens’ films, which was a great touch and very useful.  The weather was fantastic for our stay. Most days we just relaxed around the pool, but we did hire a car and explore on a couple of days. We visited Siam Park, which was very exhilerating and we also took a trip to the top of Mount Teide. It was a fantastic experience. You drive up the mountain. To start with the terrain is very green, but as you get higher up it becomes more and more barren. Before you get to the top there is a car park, where you can take a cable car to take you just below the summit. You would have to walk the rest of the way to the top, but you have to book this in advance.  We were happy to go part of the way.  The views were amazing.
