Villa Moraira

Just returned home from a weeks stay here. Villa was beautiful with lots of grounds and different places sit in the sun or escape in the shade. Cathy the owner was very friendly and helpful, she also left us a welcome pack which was great and meant we didn’t need to rush to the supermarket on arrival. It was nice that the villa had everything we needed already there, for example hand soaps in the bathrooms, washing up cloths, dishwasher tablets etc.

The pool area was perfect for us, especially the outside kitchen which was very well equipped. The pool was very large and good for swimming etc, it does get deep very quickly though.

There are three air-con units available at extra cost, we only purchased the one in the master bedroom upstairs as the first floor was particularly hot.

Downstairs there are three bedrooms one double and two twins. There is air-con available in the double only. We chose not to bother with air-con downstairs as it stays relatively cool if you keep the doors open and fans on.

As for the location of the villa, a car is necessary! it is only a short drive to Moraira, parking there was easy with a large car park. Moraira has a few nice shops and restaurants.

In addition to Moraira there are other ports which are nice to drive to for an evening out, we particularly liked Xàbia which had lots of restaurants on the sea front.

Booking the villa was made very easy as Michelle the owners niece was very good and answered all of our questions by email promptly.

In conclusion, we really enjoyed our time here and would definitely return. I think we would probably purchase all three air-con units next time though, definitely the two upstairs ones.

We have just returned from a weeks holiday at this Villa and I have to say what a wonderful Villa and a fantastic experience for my family and I. Michelle was a pleasure to deal with whilst booking our trip and our contact at the Villa Geoff was extremely helpful and contactable throughout our stay.

Absolutely everything is on site for you to enjoy your stay. The pool is cleaned twice a week. The outdoor kitchen meant that we enjoyed family time from morning till night and again very well equipped.

Beds are very comfortable and all linen and towels clean and of a good quality.

We will definitely return to this property due to the service we have received and the high standard of the Villa.

One last thing, thank you Catherine for allowing us to share your beautiful Villa and the wonderful memories my family and I now cherish. An absolute pleasure.

Booked this villa through home away using specific search criteria. We have been staying in villas for over 10 years and will only book properties with air con. Shortlisted the properties with air con and then booked this villa. Upon arrival the owner demanded more money for aircon. I was completely shocked and showed the advertisement she placed from home away. She was unapologetic and was adamant that under no circumstances where we to activate the aircon and confiscated the remotes. We tried to reason by pointing out again the advertisement she placed with home away to which she relied I'm not paying for your aircon I don't care what it says in the advertisement. We offered a compromise of just using one unit in the living area however she would not entertain it. As a result the entire upstairs of the property was unusable due to the heat. This was the beginning of problems with the owner because things just got worse from here.

We were warned not to take her towels to the beach as previously tenants had ruined her white towels. We don't go to the beach so this was not a problem.

However while sunbathing with my young son a car drove in and a stranger cane in demanding to know where the missing towels where. I was completely shocked and offended to be disturbed in this maner it became clear he was the owners partner and I informed him we had done a wash of towels. He then proceeded to say that we where not supposed to be washing towels and ran round gathering up towels.

This is a prime example of the complete unprofessional attitude of the owner.

This house belongs to the owner and she informed me on arrival that she had to move out for us to move in.

She seemed annoyed by our presence even though we had rented the house in good faith. We felt that we were an inconvenience to her.

We avoided contact with her the rest of the trip as she repeatedly offended us with her negative attitude. All contact was by email through home away.

Wish I had picked one of the many other properties on my shortlist.

We had a wonderful fortnight at this villa in August. The villa is everything as described, with all the things we needed to make our holiday special.

We stayed here as a family of 6 and there was ample space for us to lounge by the pool, dine on the veranda, or eat a meal in the outside BBQ area. The pool is large, although if you have little ones, be warned that it gets deep quickly. Due to positioning of the villa on the side of the hill, it's secluded and quiet and at night there is very little noise in the neighbourhood.

This is first villa we've stayed in with a bathroom that is larger than most bedrooms, fitted with a fantastic light up Jacuzzi bath which our children absolutely loved.

The villa is spacious, clean and well stocked, allowing you to enjoy a fully self-catered holiday or if the mood takes you visit the nearby town of Moraira. The local town has plenty of good restaurants and spots for a drink, but in mid-august the good places are booked days in advance, as we found out to our peril. For the more adventurous Moraira can be reached on foot in 15 to 20 minutes. Good for those who count their steps or like to run in the morning.

Local amenities are close by, with several supermarkets on your doorstep providing everything you possibly need during your break.

We'd love to come back and visit again, the owner was very helpful and friendly and the area is relaxed, safe and cosmopolitan.

Wir haben wunderschöne 14 Tage hier verbraucht. 6 Personen + 1 Hund. Das Haus ist schön eingerichtet und es ist soweit alles vorhanden, was man so benötigt. Trotz Vorsaison hat das Wetter ebenfalls mitgespielt, den wir hatten von dem 3 Tage Sommer in Deutschland die Nase etwas voll. Kein Regen und immer eine kleine Brise Meerluft. Ohne PKW ist man jedoch (das gilt für den ganzen Ort) relativ aufgeschmissen.

Das ist jetzt kein Mangel, jedoch ein Verbesserungsvorschlag, dann sollte es möglich sein über Satellit auch Deutsches Fernsehen zu Empfangen. Das Spanische und Englische ist zwar interessant, jedoch sollte hier auch möglich sein dies zu bekommen. Damit man wenigstens die Nachrichten empfangen kann.

Aber sonst alles in einem TOP!
