Best holiday ever!!!
By Sarah P
Stayed 24-Apr-2022

We are a family with 2 kids aged 4 and 2. We can honestly say this was the most wonderful holiday experience we've had. Everything about the property was perfect. Communication before our arrival was great, the owners were even understanding when I made an error with the payment. They sent great directions to find the place and everything was very smooth getting there. The house itself is absolutely beautiful - to be honest, we felt the photos didn't do it justice as really all the rooms were bigger and nicer than they look in the photos! The house is incredibly well equipped for a holiday home - we have stayed in a few places and really this one was by far the best, everything you could need for cooking at home, bbq, pool, etc. There were even some games and toys which the kids loved. The beds were really comfortable, the dining areas were great, both indoor and outdoor and the pool is just fabulous. For us with two small kids, we felt the heated pool was really essential at this time of year and made things so comfortable for us. The hot tub was also a bonus and such a luxury! The only caveat we would have is that there are a lot of stairs as the house and pool are over three levels, so it's probably not suitable for elderly or people with impaired mobility. There is a stairgate at the top of the stairs which is great for kids so we didn't have any problem with it. Chris and Ann were contactable throughout the stay and sorted out any very minor queries we had. We had stretched our budget to stay at the Villa Miramar but we really felt it was worth every penny!!! Highly recommended and we'd love to come back.

Home from Home with added Luxury. This is our 3rd visit to Linda and Alan’s fabulous place and it’s been amazing to see the place change over the years. The addition of the self-contained 2 bed apartment (under the pool) meant that additional members of our family could join us without it feeling cramped.The pool area, which has been extended, is very spacious with good quality sun loungers and parasols to provide shade. The pool side kitchen is really useful for keeping much needed drinks ice cold and its great to have a bathroom down there to avoid having to trail back into the house. My boys loved the poolside hot tub, especially in the evenings when the tub lights up! Sharon H.

We’ve just returned from a fantastic holiday in Nerja, which was made all the better by our stay in the beautiful Miramar villa. In all our years going on holiday this was by far the most impressive villa we’ve stayed in. It’s modern, very clean and very comfortable. The owners have thought of everything and guests don’t want for anything. The outside spaces are amazing, from the roof terrace down to the unbelievable pool/hot tub area, which has its own toilet, kitchen and barbecue area – it’s a space you’ll find very hard to tear yourself away from. My two sons loved it. The location is a winner too – only 5 minutes to the beautifully chilled-out Burriana beach area with its array of lovely beach bars, restaurants and shops. The old town is only a 15-minute walk away and is stunning with its small streets and vast choice of restaurants and shops to choose from. The view from the Balcon de Europe will take your breath away – no matter how many times you visit it! Nerja is hilly, so you’ll give yourself a work out walking to the villa and old town, but it’s a very small price to pay to be in such a perfect location. The communication with property managers Chris and Ann was superb, so we knew we were in good hands. It was lovely meeting them when we arrived at the villa. All in all, my family and I can’t recommend this villa highly enough. If you book it, I guarantee you won’t regret it. It has everything and more, and we will definitely be back.

We had a Superb family holiday in the Miramar. Our party consisted of me , over 70, and 4 young children but despite the steep hill up to the house from the beach area we still had a wonderful time. The house is extremely well equipped with sky tv and a great swimming pool area. Possibly not suitable for older guests or those with restricted movement for most it is a great position. Strongly recommended. Colin Sexstone

Hello Colin, Thank you for your review and we are glad that you and your family enjoyed your stay at our villa, despite the hill. We look forward to seeing you again should you wish to visit this part of Spain in the future. Linda and Alan

This is my families 3rd visit to Nerja and second time staying in this beautiful villa. This time, for more space we took advantage of the new apartment. The villa is furnished to a very high standard and the owners have thought of every little detail. We were so comfortable and made use of the swimming pool and jacuzzi. The apartment was well laid out and furnished to a high standard. The only issue we had was with the shower in the apartment, which wasn’t draining properly, so my daughter and her partner had to use the shower in the main villa. This was an inconvenience, However Ann and Chris did all they could to resolve the problem. I’m sure this is just teething problems and will be sorted. We all love Nerja and I’m sure we will return again. Linda B.

With 10 people: 6 adults and 4 teenagers, we were the last week of october in villa Miramar. The house is built on a slope and surprisingly large, from roof terrace to gym no less than 6 floors. The living floor (kitchen, dining room, lounge, terrace) with the entrance at street level was enough for our group to eat together and see the sunset. The kitchen is equipped with all appliances and has enough storage space. The whole house is well furnished. 3 bedrooms are on the floor below the living area, with a terrace overlooking the pool. The other 2 bedrooms are in the apartment, where our 4 granddaughters had the realm alone. The location of the house is nice. The last of 5, built on a kind of valley. From the pool terrace it looked like a green oasis, with almost tropical vegetation. The acoustics in the “valley” were good, so the sound of the apartments across the road could be a bit loud. We were there in the autumn, it was very quiet then, but it is possible in the summer a little noisier. The house is not recommended for families with small children, because of the many (marble) stairs. It is important for the elderly to know that the road to the beach is steep, which requires a good condition on the way back. Nerja itself is a nice place, with many shops and eateries. Beautiful streets, well maintained and lots of (palm) trees. Despite the fact that it was late October, after a hot summer, everything was still fresh and green. Around the village are many residential areas, but nowhere is high-rise. The Burriana beach is near the villa, a large beach with many amenities. And walking through the village you come across more big and small beaches. Some can only be reached by stairs. It is nice that we could order groceries by Linda and Alan, so that we had a full fridge on arrival on Sunday. In short: a large, comfortable house in a beautiful atmospheric village, an oasis in a coastal region where high-rise buildings set the tone.

We enjoyed a one week stay in Villa Miramar on the 6th Aug 2018 with all of our family – 6 adults and 2 children, 6 and 7. The villa is absolutely perfect with all the facilities you need, a real home from home and to a high standard. The villa was clean and everything in full working order. Chris was extremely helpful. There is a supermarket nearby and it’s a short walk to the beach – it is uphill on the way back. Nerja is beautiful with lots of shops, restaurants and bars, you don’t need to go anywhere else. There is something for everyone in this villa, if you want to chill out, be in the pool or work out in the gym!

Hello Claire, We thank you for your kind review and are glad that you all enjoyed yourselves. We look forward to welcoming you back again should you ever revisit Nerja. Linda and Alan

Stayed at Villa Miramar for 1 week in August 2018, we were 10 persons between family and friends. In one word : THE Paradise. First o all, a big thank to Chris and Ann for their welcome and relationship. They facilitated our arrival by leaving our luggages at the villa what allowed us to go to the lunch befors to install our clothes. Chris and Ann are very kind, they made it easy for us to book a transfer for our outing in Malaga and Granada. Regarding the villa, what a villa! Everithing is perfect, the villa is furnished with great taste, the furniture is beautiful and the equipment of good quality as well as bedding. The villa is very well located in Burriana, the beach is 5 minutes walk and the center is a half an hour but it is still a pleasure to ride there but we get used it! The last hill is just a little feel for the return on foot. Otherwise, there is Nerja taxis easy to book for approx 5 – 7 euros. The villa I miss already, I recommend and for sure we will come back Isabel & Joël

Hells Isabel & Joel, We thank you for your kind review and will be only too pleased to welcome you back, should you choose to come to Nerja again. Linda and Alan

Returned from a lovely stay in this villa in Nerja. Lovely quiet location as it is in a very residential area, though easy 5 minutes walk to Burriana Beach area, with its many bars, restaurants and shops. We only went into this area once as the old town is fantastic. We visited with 3 teenage children, 19, 16 and 14 who stayed in the separate apartment. This was great for them to feel independent of us and it was furnished beautifully, though I would be very reluctant to do this with any younger children. Pool area is a great size and enough good quality sun loungers for all. For those who want some shade there are 2 seating areas and 2 brolley’s for over the loungers to help. The villa and apartment are split level and there are lots of steps so anyone with mobility issues or toddlers may need to give this some thought. Fine for us but did think had Grandma come with us she may have struggled. Bedrooms all of a good size, especially the master, all with superb air conditioning. A safe is provided for passports, cash etc. Lovely terrace with great views to laze on an evening and drink Sangria! Sky TV in all UK channels also available. A huge supermarket is a 10 minute walk away up hill with the empty shopping trolley and luckily downhill on the return leg. Note the main supermarket is closed on Sundays, so a much smaller one is all you will have. We took no toiletries with us as we knew we could buy them reasonably there. It’s the equivalent of a UK Tesco/Sainsbury size and similar in price. The old town is really beautiful and you can eat in the many restaurants from their special menus(of which there are many) from as little as 10 euros for a 3 course meal, to speciality steak and seafood restaurants. Its a great relaxing bustling typically Spanish small town. Would highly recommend.

Hello Jeanette,We thank you for your review and are glad that you and your family enjoyed your holiday in our villa.Should you ever think of coming back to Nerja we will be only too pleased to accommodate you again.
