Quiet location in the hills. Great pool. Clean and tidy Fantastic views

Nothing

Pool, outdoor spaces, air con

Driveway very steep

The position was great, being on the quiter side of the mountain with great views, the layout was great, extremely well equipped villa from washer, hairdryer, iron, heaters and aircon to first aid kit, they have it all, with great pool and fantastic outdoor living space. We had two colder days but the heaters warmed the villa quickly. Near to both Canillas and just positioned at the top of Archez which is so pretty and where there is a nearby Italian restaurant where you can get freshly made pizza and if you go there in the morning they will bake you a loaf, plenty of restaurants to choose from Competa is only a short drive away and your money goes along way around here. Friendly village, butcher, supermarkets in Canillas and Competa with a great little market on Saturdays in Competas market Square. Only half an hours drive to the beech, this is a great relaxing holiday and a great place to stay. My sister lives here in the village and she is so happy, it's a cheaper and healthier way of living. There are great walks and cycling opportunities, there are avocados, orange's, lemons and almonds growing wild and there is some beautiful places to visit in the valley and mountains.

If you all like to cook together, the kitchen is on the small side and in traditional Spanish design with tile worktops which isn't great despite having everything you need. The beds are comfy but the pillows need replacing. As with most properties here in the mountains they have steep driveways so some can be very hairy although this was steep and winding but less so than others, we had an automatic car which helped and we got the hang of the turns within a day. Four wheel drive would be best around here but not essential.

Everything the villa itself was spotless 3 great size bedrooms master is ensuite, kitchen had everything we needed, living room was very roomy with nice high ceilings, TV, DVD, satellite, wifi, and well furnished. Outside space had two eating/relaxing areas again well furnished. The pool was fantastic and well needed as the weather was boiling, plenty of sunbeds. The areas around the villa had various restaurants and the times we ate out we never had a bad meal. Competa was our personal favourite only a 10 minute drive free parking, then most restaurants were in walking distance from the centre. You will need a car but if you want a relaxing quite stay I would fully recommend Casa los Almendros, we are definitely going to book again. Thank you.

Nothing, the only thing I would add is maybe a welcome pack, some bread and milk.
