Villa Roma

We have just returned from 2 weeks at the villa Roma,A lovely peacefull place,lovely views,the villa is spotless,well placed with excellent supermarket,the wifi and Sky television was very good,lovely pool,we were very lucky with the weather hot the whole time,there was no mention of there being a hairdryer but there was one,it was very well equipt they had thought of everythin,I would urge holiday makers tomake sure if you are traveling with Thomsons to get a key at airport,we had to wait for Paul who looks after the villa to bring us one.we would highly recommend this villa.

What a fab place, out door eating, clean pool, air con, car, sky, wifi. This is in a quiet location away from all the noise. Just site back and relax with a good book on the patio by the pool. What a great place.

The Villa was perfect for what we wanted which was a quiet relaxed holiday! Villa Roma is situated in a quiet residential area with lovely views over the bay and surrounding hills/ mountains. The parking was perfectly adequate and easy we did not see any other cars in the cul-de-sac. The accommodation was perfect for us, we were pleasantly surprised at the size of our bedroom and en-suite, the children had a twin room and used the other bathroom (which included a washing machine - not essential but an added bonus!) as their en-suite! The kitchen was more than adequate with a fridge-freezer, microwave, oven and halogen hob. The lounge/dining area was perfect for card playing and relaxing late in the evening and for the children to 'chill' and watch a few TV programmes (it has a full sky package including sport & movie channel!). The WIFI was fast and the code is on top of the router, we used the air-con all week which cooled the entire villa to a lovely cool 19/20 o C. The patio and pool area included outdoor dining space with table & chairs, sun loungers, lemon and lime trees and BBQ which we used most evenings. The pool pump is on a timer as are the garden lights - a lovely space to enjoy a drink in the evening watching the sun go down and the shadows lengthen on the mountains. The Villa is just a few minutes drive from Carrefour (open until 10pm), pharmacy and a few restaurants (Indian & pizzeria) and Aldi (the views from the Aldi car park are amazing, stretching from Torremelinos to Fuengerola - worth a peak). Fresh fish, meat and fruit and veg available from Carrefour, hence the amount of BBQ's! We went on the Cable Car in Benalmadena which is well worth the visit, the panoramic views on the way up and at the summit are wonderful; on a clear day the coast of Africa is apparently visible, unfortunately it was slightly hazy the day we went. A trip to Benalmadena Pueblo and Mijas are well worth a visit - a view of more traditional villages/ towns, lovely white buildings, narrow streets, cafes and restaurants in quiet plazas where you can sit and just 'people watch'. Just a short drive away is Benalmedena, Torremelinos and Fuengerola so if you want some hustle and bustle it is just a short drive away.
