Enjoyed everything at the home. Service was excellent from the local hosts. Clean cool and exciting to be there and experience the local area. Worth twice the price, but don't tell the owners.

Our family had a fantastic time in Granada over Christmas thanks to this lovely house. The location is fantastic, the house is charming, the garden is beautiful and the price was right. It is a 10 min walk through the bustling market to the main square. The owner was very responsive and helpful and we would definitely recommend this place to anybody. Fantastic house!

My husband and I had the chance to spend 5 weeks at Casa Don Carlos, a wonderful experience in a beautiful environment. The house is really spectacular and has everything a modern home needs. Being Canadians, we were impressed by the fountains and flowers, Rosita the parrot and guardian of the house, the gardens, the lovely woodwork on the doors, cupboards, etc…it’s called luxury. Our main concern (besides the weather) was safety. With the family so close, the alarm system, the features of the doors/windows and the location of the house, we even managed to make friends with the neighbours, and our concern stopped as soon as we entered the house. On the contrary, we were adopted by the family who were so generous and so helpful. The house is always clean, thanks to Mathilda and Tatiana, Carla’s local cooking was a delight and the help for everything from Carlos was priceless. Everyone in the family participated in our Spanish lessons correcting our errors while trying to keep a straight face as we wrestled with grammar and pronunciation. The house is located close to the action: the market, the parque centrale and the heart of old Granada. Access to buses and tours is easy, and really we had a great stay in Granada complete with the feeling of coming back home every night. Even though we have been back for more than 2 months, we miss the family and the fantastic weather. A really great place for vacation. Many thanks to the Goussen family who made it all happen.

We had a wonderful, relaxing stay with our three year old son. The home is beautiful, with two fountains, a lush garden, and lovely, comfortable furniture. My son enjoyed visiting with the two parrots (feed them your fruit scraps!) and three turtles. It is located about a fifteen minute walk from Granada's central square (or a 50 cent shared cab ride) and a ten minute walk from the central market and a major supermarket. The home is so beautiful and relaxing, and we so enjoyed spending time there, we didn't do nearly as much exploring of Granada as we had planned. We look forward to returning again soon.

I rented this house for 2 weeks in the summer and was thrilled. The pictures don't do it justice. The house is so beautiful and relaxing. Everything is top notch. The best surprise was the family that took care of the house. They treated us like family and helped us with anything we needed. They taught Spanish to our kids, helped us find reliable drivers and advised us on travel plans. We still keep in contact with them today. What a treasure.

The photos on the VRBO site are great, but don’t fully do justice to the care and detail taken to build and furnish this house. I loved to “open to the sky” patio the home is built around - with two fountains to fill the home with the sound of running water. I can’t think of a nicer setting for sitting down and writing in my journal with a cup of café con leche than the patio table. There are lots of quality architectural details which accent the home throughout – you’ll feel like you’re one of the “muy ricos” Our girls especially loved the hammock and the parrots – which greet you with hola. There’s even a turtle in main fountain. The rooms are air conditioned and the mattresses were super comfortable – so it was easy to sleep here. Oscar’s brother was there to shown us around when we arrived and Oscar even called us from San Francisco to welcome us and make sure to call him at any time if we had any questions. Oscar’s sister-in-law and niece came by each morning at 7:30 AM to give the place a thorough cleaning. The internet was definitely slow, but usable and there are free international calls to most countries. The house made a great base to explore the Granada and the surrounding area. We didn’t opt for a car, but mainly walked, took buses and rented some bikes. There is plenty to do in the area – but after a long day of exploring this or that – when you got back home and opened up the door to walk into the house, it always felt like you were walking into a welcoming bit of paradise.

do you provide transportation if yes what is the cost?
