BELLE VILLA INDIVIDUELLE DE 11 PERSONNES, PISCINE PRIVÉE, WIFI, A / C, SEAVIEW !!

Great clean and well presented Villa with several modern amenities.

Ideal location near some bars and shops and only a short tram ride into Alicante town.

The layout of the rooms makes it ideal for large groups of friends or family and the gardens surrounding it mean the outside area is very private.

The villa itself was great with only one or two niggles. The bar across the road has a quiz night on Mondays which we really enjoyed. The beach nearby was great for snorkelling and the tram station only a few minutes walk away with a supermarket very close to it. There were quite a few bars and restaurants very close by.

In the villa the double ensuite bedroom that looks out onto the pool is the least private and so not great if you want a bit of peace and quiet during the day. The lower floor rooms were an odd arrangement with no link between them so the occupants of the room with only outside access had no easy access to a toilet at night.

Our biggest issues were with the management staff. We had paid for bed linen and towels not realising that we were expected to use these items for the whole 2 weeks. When I asked Cathy about this she was flippant, telling me we had a washing machine and the sheets would dry easily in the heat. Considering we had no washing line I can’t imagine the logistics of this for 3 double and 3 single bed sets of bed linen. I was also disappointed that there was no clean offered at the end of the first week. All perfectly normal Cathy assured me - well not in my experience!

Cathy ordered our taxi for our departure to the airport but somehow managed to book it for 19.30 instead of 09.30 so we had a stressful half our trying to get a taxi. Meanwhile Cathy was blaming the taxi driver for going to the wrong address as the reason for it not turning up at the required time.

Very disappointing management of an otherwise great villa.

We recently stayed at this Villa along with my parents & our teen/older children and their partners and all of us had a fantastic time.

The villa itself is simply decorated, spotlessly clean and very homely & comfortable. However all of us spent most of our time together outside by the pool which to us is the heart of the villa. Adjacent to the pool is a gas BBQ, a lovely seating area with canopy & 4 sun loungers (could do with a few more loungers?!) so most of our days were spent in or around the pool & most of our evenings were spent here also; cooking, drinking, playing cards & beer pong! (*Note to owner- maybe invest in a Table Tennis?)

The area of Coverta Fuma directly around the villa is quiet & mostly residential, however there are a small number of bars & restaurants (and a small supermarket) only 10mins walk away.

Coverta Fuma beach which is also only a 10min walk away was not very nice thou, quite rocky & seaweed everywhere! However El Campello beach is only 2 stops away on the Tram & the beach there is beautiful, sandy & endless, as are the bars & restaurants so lots to do there & easy to get to & from using the Tram which my children used a lot to get about. Both Benidorm & Alicante were also easy to get to on the tram although sadly they stop running around 10.30pm?

Cathy (our host) was a real help to us both before & during our stay. I had a few queries prior to our stay which she answered promptly plus She helped us to hire a car which was brilliant. No huge holding deposit, no excess waiver insurance etc just simply met us at airport & off we went. Also one of the Sun canopies was broken on our arrival which we reported to Cathy & by next day it was replaced with a brand new one.

Overall a fantastic relaxing 2wks stay in a beautiful comfy villa.

My only quibble is that we used a lot of electric whilst we were there which I wasn’t expecting. Probably due to the exceptional hot weather & the air con being on most of the time, but this was much needed for my parents (& my stropy teenagers!) So Just be prepared if going during summer months you will probably exceed your electric allowance of 100kw per wk & be charged extra. However this was not a real problem & other than that small quibble the villa was perfect.
