Belle villa avec climatisation, Internet WIFI, piscine privée et jardins

Nice views over the town and the mountains.

This is an excellent villa. The photos show exactly what you are getting. Caroline and Jose could not be better, unobtrusive yet always on hand for help. The villa is very peaceful yet only a 5 min drive from Nerja. The road to the villa is a typical Spanish back road, but is Ok - I have stopped at Sayalonga, which is further inland and the back road to the villa I stayed in there was truly frightening! If you want to walk down in to Nerja it is all down hill, alebit a bit dusty. We tended to drive down into Nerja during the day, but got taxis (always use the taxi that Caroline advised - Antonio - who was just a phone call away and always reliable) there and back on a night. The taxi cost 10 euros each way. Nerja is a lovely place, still retaining a Spanish feel but with lots of interesting shops and good restaurants. Malaga and Granada are about an easy hours drive away for a trip out. I would not hesitate in recommending this villa.

Property was really clean, beautifully presented and brilliantly equipped. We did not hire a car and managed fine, usually walking into town and getting a taxi back. The proximity to the road was not an issue, we didn't notice any noise. The views from the villa were excellent. A final word on the owners, they helped with everything we needed in a really prompt fashion, they were always on hand if we needed them but were NOT invasive. Brilliant.

We have just returned from Villa El Cano and couldn't wait to book again for next year! The villa itself it lovely, well laid out and furnished. The bedroom arrangement was perfect for us with our family sharing the larger shower room and our friends with their own bathroom. Everything we needed was there, dishwasher, oven and microwave for those nights we ate in and the lovely table on the veranda at the front where we could sit and watch the lights of the town and the fantastic lightening storm that lit the sky one night. Incredible! The garden and pool were our idea of heaven. So peaceful and secluded. Not overlooked and very little noise, especially not the barking of dogs which we have noticed in many other places. Although the villa is quite a way from the centre of town, it is not isolated and we felt very safe and secure at all times. On the nights we went into the town to eat we walked down via the Rio Chillar, a pleasant walk as the evening cooled, even for my husband who is approaching 70. As the return journey is somewhat steeper we did get a taxi back!

On our arrival, much too early, we were greeted by Caroline who showed us all the important stuff and very kindly allowed us to leave our luggage safely whilst we went for lunch and supplies, beer, wine, whisky and a little food! Her help was invaluable especially the number of the taxi service, the esteemed Antonio, who brought us home safely, and if he wasn't working himself, he arranged for his friend to pick us up.

Altogether a fantastic holiday, we can't wait to return as we feel we hardly scratched the surface of Nerja which is a lovely town.

The villa is stunning and very relaxing. Caroline (the owner) met us and explained about the villa and Nerja when we arrived.The garden is beautiful. We spent summer evenings by the pool and the children swam happily. I jogged around the garden in the evenings on 2 of the 7 days.

The children had a lie in each morning.

The afternoons were too hot (35 to 38 Celsius) so we stayed indoors then, watching TV and DVDs. There were a few newish American program on the TV.

We brought our favourite DVDs along. There is a DVD player there.

The local supermarkets are close by and had everything we needed. I felt healthier on the bottled mineral water there and am getting Brita water filters in the UK now.

We made a day trip to see the Alhambra Palace, Granada. The motorways are very good and this is a very well developed, modern and advanced tourist area. (We had booked Alhambra tour guide tickets 2 months earlier online from England).

We made a half day trip to see the impressive caves at Nerja. The food there was excellent and very good value for money (10 Euros for a full tasty meal). The price there is 1/2 that in Nerja town. The town is modern and well developed.
