  : Amazing views, Secluded location, Great pool and terrace.
  : Tricky drive up mountain gravel roads. We were ok as had vehicles with good ground clearance but a 4x4 would be better

  : The villa is really secluded and the view is breathtaking! With 11 double/twin rooms, it's extremely good value for a big group. The decor and facilities are simple but perfectly adequate for relaxing and basic self catering.
  : The only potentially negative aspect, in our opinion, was that it wasn't made particularly clear how remote the villa is. If you're prepared for it, then that's one of the best things about it but you'll probably want to shop before you first arrive because it's a 45-minute drive to a supermarket. More importantly, you will probably want a 4x4 vehicle as the final stretch to the villa is dirt tracks, which in places are pretty steep with a loose surface. The best route is to approach via road MA-3111 but then put coordinates 36.796824, -4.277100 into Google maps or satnav and take that track. I suggest you DON'T try to take the shortest track to the villa, with the final approach from the west: this is extremely steep and narrow, and potentially unsafe unless you're accustomed to offroad driving.
