We had an absolutely wonderful week stay at this superb villa. The property is brilliant, with all mod cons, lovely swimming pool and very tastefully furnished being able to cater for any family/group. I’d go as far to say that the villa looks better IRL than the photos available online, which is very rare to come across! The location is breathtaking with stunning views and ideally located for fabulous hikes and cycling. As well as being a short drive to the beaches in and around Gandia. We absolutely hope to visit again, probably the only criticism being a week wasn’t long enough to do everything that’s on offer in the area. Enjoy! Carol and family
We thoroughly enjoyed our second stay in a most delightful location. This lovely spacious property has all the mod cons and everything has been well thought out to ensure you have a very comfortable stay. We particularly enjoyed having our meals on the balcony with the backdrop of the mountains. Plenty of walks straight from the door, our favourite being to Barx for a mid morning coffee. Further afield ( 20 minutes by car) is the town of Gandia . Simat too is well worth a visit and has a lovely peaceful monastery to look around. Would highly recommend. .

Paul, I am delighted you enjoyed the villa on your return stay and particularly the walk to Barx for your morning coffees. You were perfect guests and you are more than welcome to return for a further visit. Best wishes Paul
From start to finish our stay at this villa could not have been better! Paul was so accommodating and his prompt communication helped everything to run smoothly. We were met on the day of arrival by Juan, who was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond expectations to help us. The villa itself is even more stunning than shown online - the pictures really don’t do it the justice it deserves. The villa was spotless, the pool was perfect and everything that we could have needed was available. The welcome hamper was certainly a lovely surprise! We will most certainly return to the villa in the future (although maybe next time with a hire car to tackle the large hill!). If you are looking for a relaxing holiday with stunning mountain views in a 5* villa, then this is definitely the place to stay!

Hazel, I am delighted you had a great stay and enjoyed the villa. Yes you can enjoy the villa without a car but having one saves the climb back up the hill. Thanks for being lovely guests and hopefully you will visit again. Paul
We had such a relaxing and restful stay here. Even as a family of 5, there is so much space for everyone to do their own thing but also great spaces to come together, whether out on the large balcony, by the pool or playing pool! Whenever we needed to communicate with the either the owner or Juan, they were both quick to respond and helpful. Won't be forgetting those views in a hurry!

Dear Kelly, Delighted you enjoyed the flexibility of the villa and the fabulous views. You were great guests and we would happily welcome you back anytime. Best wishes, Paul.
Communication with villa owners is easy and quick. The whole process was easy. The information pack sent includes all the information we needed about the villa and surrounding area. Upon arrival we were met by the care taker Juan who showed us the villa, how to get in and told us about the local area. The villa it self is amazing, great facilities wonderfull views and a great pool with lots of space and lounger for sunbathing. The kids loved to bottom of the garden which they used as a den. All bed rooms are spacious and equipped with AC. The games room is a great addition which kept every occupied. We loved the terrace for alfresco dining. There are plenty of walks from the villa all of which are sign posted and take in the amazing views. Barx has local shops where you can get everything you need and Gandai is 20-30 mins away for access to larger stores. This Villa is definitely a great base for a holiday away from tourists masses.

Daniel, Many thanks for your comprehensive review and we are really delighted that you had a great holiday and enjoyed the villa and surrounding area. It is interesting that your children found the bottom of the garden fun for making dens, etc. We do not promote this area on the web-site but it is great for children and also the tress makes for a lovely shaded area to cool off. You and your family were perfect guests and you are very welcome to visit again anytime. Best wishes Paul and Frances
This was our first visit to this region of Spain, to see family who had moved to La Drova a couple of years ago. The villa was pure luxury set high up in the mountainous area above Gandia and the views from the villa were awesome. The villa itself was as advertised, very clean, very roomy, nice decor and ideal facilities for our family. The weather was excellent but being high up gives the benefit of not being too hot compared to what it was lower down. Depending on your requirements, it is a good base to walk or cycle if you are fit enough but also a good mountain pass drive down to visit Gandia and the surrounding beach areas or to Valencia by train. Wherever you go, it was always nice to get back and relax by the pool area. Hopefully we'll get another chance to stay there in the future. Thanks. Richard

It was a pleasure having you as guests and we would happily welcome you back anytime. Best wishes Paul and Frances
