Villa was very clean and well appointed with everything you would need. The outdoor area was great - big pool, gas BBQ, table tennis etc. Marie the owner was helpful and welcoming and answered all our questions promptly - she also booked us a taxi from the airport and left some basis food for breakfast we were arriving late at night. There are a few restaurants within a short walk or more near the beach which is around 15 mins walk. We could drive to a number of golf courses which were absolutely stunning and reasonably priced for Spain. Many thanks for a great holiday! ##### S B.

What a great place to stay, the villa has everything we needed. The kitchen is well stocked, the outdoor kitchen was a great addition. We opted to have the pool heated and were so glad we did, the children rarely left it! The rooms were all nice with very comfortable beds and soft furnishings. Marie and Francke were great hosts, sorting our transfers from the airport and on hand with any queries we had. The villa is in a great location with an Aldi and Lidl within walking distance and a slightly longer walk the other way to the beach. I would recommend this villa to anyone seeking a place for a family get together. ##### Laura H. Stayed 10 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stewart O.

Amazing pool kept our children happy all day from the morning till the evening. Some days we only went out for lunch/dinner and otherwise stayed in enjoying the outdoor space or watching a movie etc. This is home from home. Nothing is too much trouble and if ever needed owner is very quick to response back. Kitchen has everything you need and the small touches like washing tabs and dishwasher tablets etc made the stay very easy. Location is great, quiet but still shops, beach and restaurants near by. Weekly market also close by which we enjoyed.We are definitely hoping to come back and this time longer. ##### virpi p. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### nicholas d.

The villa is very well equipped - it has all the equipment needed to host 8 people in terms of kitchen equipment, loungers and outdoor seating (which isn't always the case for villas with beds for 8 people). The pool is also large (approx. 10m length) for a private villa pool. The villa is a short walk to the beach. I would definitely recommend this villa as a base for the Mar Menor area and Marie and Franck as hosts. ##### nicholas d. Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara B.

The area was very private and it was exactly what we were looking for. If we could have given 6 stars we would have. Thanks Marie and Franck! ##### David B.

This was made possible by not only the Villa but also the level of attention, care, communication and professionalism by Marie and Franck. They were dream hosts and couldn't ask for anymore. The welcome basket to immediate response ensured our holiday was the success it was. What a truly stunning villa whereby the photos do not do it justice. Absolutely everything you could think of was present and more. The highlight of the Villa was the 10m swimming pool. What an absolute delight and perfect temperature to cool you down from the Spanish Sun. Location was great as didn't require a car to the beach (10 min walk) or Aldi (10 min walk). I couldn't recommend this Villa and hosts enough and I'm very confident you will make the right choice in choosing this stunning Villa. ##### Gavin C.

The villa is incredibly spacious, spotlessly clean and has all the home comforts you need. The kitchen is well equipped and the bedrooms and living areas are comfortable with plenty of room for everyone. The highlight of this villa is the outside space. There is a comfortable seating area and lots of sunbeds for everyone to enjoy in shade or sun, depending on your preference. The pool is fantastic and with the pool heating we were able to enjoy swimming from early morning to late evening. The villa is in a peaceful location, but perfectly located for a short stroll to the beach, with several bars and restaurants in close vicinity. Within a short drive there are lots of other small towns which are all very pleasant to stroll around and enjoy the various markets that are on. We didn't venture further afield but larger towns such as Murcia and Cartagena are also fairly close so lots to see and do. Marie and Franck are excellent hosts and were very responsive when we had queries or questions. We had an amazing holiday and hope to return very soon! ##### Michelle M.

Marie and Franck have made the most wonderful holiday let, with every small detail considered and provided. The 4 bed accommodation is finished to a very high specification with subtle soft furnishings. The outside space is an oasis, with a selection of dining tables to maximise sun and shade, awnings, umbrellas, comfortable sun loungers and a great assortment of toys and floats for the family, even beach towels are provided so all you need to bring is your sun cream and clothes. The pool is a great size and we had it heated, there is a great washing machine, tumble dryer and hoover if needed, and the villa was spotless on arrival. The Gas BBQ was easy to use and there was extra gas if required. The surrounding area is residential and quiet, we found some great restaurants to walk to in the evening. Shops are nearby and easy to reach for supplies. We are very much looking forward to a return trip. It truly delivers on every level. ##### Ray S.

Huset passade våra behov som stor familj med små barn, unga och gamla vuxna. Hyresvärden var mycket hjälpsam, gav oss information om aktiviteter ,resturangtips och annan information. De hjälpte även till med transfer till och ifrån huset ##### Annika Birgitta K. Stayed 9 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mette A.

I don't think we've ever had a better equipped villa. And the pool is wonderful. Not many places have pools as big. Marie and Franck were the best hosts. Marie even gave us a lift to our next stay. We are definitely looking to return. ##### hazel o. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024
