A Really Pleasurable Experience.

We (our 12 year old son, my husband and myself) have just returned from our first visit to Lanzarote (having visited Tenerife previously). This was our first experience staying in a private villa with pool.
The photo's and description of the property are extremely accurate.It is very well maintained, beautifully appointed, very clean and the pool is "the icing on the cake".
From our first contact with Debbie to the email on our return we could not have asked for a more courteous and helpful "customer service".
A welcome pack, extensive house file and a personal visit made it outstanding.
We were fortunate enough to have good weather and so, each day, we would roll back the pool cover to allow the sun to heat it up so we could cool off or have a splash about. It is such a private and peaceful spot that whether you swim or just lounge at the side of the pool it feels amazingly relaxing.
It is a good 20 minute walk to the Marina Rubicon - taxis are only 3 euros if you prefer - however it is a pleasurable walk especially if the sun is setting or if the moon is glinting along the sea and it feels very safe to do so.
Local supermarkets are well stocked (beautiful meats) and a barbecue is a must! Should you choose to dine out take advice from the holiday file.
Our recommendation would be for Casa Roja at the Marina - it is not a cheap restuarant however the quality of the food, the wine selection and the service received, we found, to be excellent.
We would be happy to return to Lanzarote and would be only too pleased to be looked after again by Debbie and her family. There would be no hesitation to recommend this property to friends or family.
