Las Blancas was a beautiful villa. I stayed with my partner, two girls and my parents. It was perfect. The pictures do not do it justice. The rooms were bright and spacious. The pool was amazing. The villa was situated it a perfect position. Less than 10 mins to the beach (if you turn right out of the villa and walk to the bottom of the road, then through the wooded area to the left, then right along the road, etc) We found getting to the mercadona or lidl was alot quicker going this way as well, the shopping trolley found in the cupboard by the front door was a god send. The inflatables by the pool were used alot! The garden was secluded and you were able to get shade from the trees. Lots of seating and sun loungers to use. Air con was well needed, worked perfectly. It was amazing. Gillian the host was quick to get back. John the manager of the property was friendly and helpful. Thank you

Perfect Location and spacious villa

We have 4 dogs so wanted somewhere private and spacious with close proximity to the beach and that’s exactly what this villa offered. Had everything we needed and it may be a bit dated but it was perfect for us. 5 min walk to beach, restaurants and amenities. Host was quick to respond but we really had no issues within our 4 week stay.

Villa is really spacious and pool is great. Information folder on resort is not great (good re villa), no info on reaching beach or local dining. Downstairs smelt really musty, cleared after airing. Parts are looking a bit tired – broken tiles, shower in ensuite, but they are minor niggles and is an excellent villa. Kitchen has everything but only 1 set of crockery (6 places) so constant wash up. Plenty of condiments and cleaning stuffs but no bottled water. However tap water was fine for drinking. There is no safe.Some resort info. Route to beach on foot is downhill out of villa, onto short track. Pirate beach bar at nearest beach is good. Shoes recommended for sea. Sunbeds at Pirate and further right at Luna Beach run out quite early. Bathing better at Luna beach. Luna beach accessible by car – hard to find route – is narrow road with tunnel under A7 from near Lidls. Restaurants in walking distance are on Avenue de Espana. We tried 2 – Maradentro – good fish restaurant, excellent paella, and Little Italy which we thought was ok. 1.4 mile on boardwalk to Cabopino marina with restaurants. Great night there at Alberts with 80s live music. Best taxi Mijas Taxi for local and airport transfer – taximijas.es. We found buses a nightmare. Timetable is fiction. Two buses to Marbella did not stop because they were full. Mercadona supermarket closed Sundays – Lidl, Carrefour and MAS open. Late night mini market on Avenue de Espana next to Little Italy.

Family get together

A very nice secluded villa in a good location. We were a party of 6 adults and two babies and found the villa, pool and peaceful private garden a great place to stay. We were able to walk to local shops, the beach and restaurants which meant we didn't need to hire a car, Ubers or buses are easy if you want to travel further. Overall a great family holiday!

Another fab week in Calahonda

My sister, myself and our daughters loved our time at the villa so much last year, we just had to come again this year. This year was even better than last in some ways as we knew that we were coming to a home from home. We also had found some lovely places to visit last year which we went to again, these didn’t disappoint either 😊 A huge thank you to Gillian & Team!

Calahonda in April

As a group of three golfers, this was an ideal villa and perfect location for our week in the Costa del Sol. The lounge / dining area and outside space were perfect. Although conveniently located for the nearby main road, the garden area was very quiet. We walked to a variety of nearby restaurants. Off street parking was very helpful.

When we entered the property & opened kitchen door, it smelt fusty, almost dampish smell, Living room air conditioning unit didnt work,there was a dead dried up cockroach next to sliding doors, we were told it was tripping the whole villa . Downstairs loo switch came off the wall, tbf john did replace it on the wed, he was great & always available to us. The villa could be spectacular, unfortunately its decor, fittings need upgraded, its dated & a bit old fashioned, plastic plants are a plenty. Upstairs in our room, ceiling fan didnt work, the mercadona was a 10 min walk away, we didnt do the beach as it was too hot to walk in, pool was great size, but again tiles missing cracked, son & daughter both cut their feet. Had enough crockery etc, but bottle opener cracked. John said hed replace it the next day but we ended up just doing it ourselves twice, the plastic plates & cutlery could do with replacing also no pizza cutter. The electrics tripped several times too.
