by Jasper Bffarr on 23.08.2013 Wonderful stay at superb Villa and crystal clear private pool in early Spring. Villa fully stocked with everything we needed for our stay over a few weeks. We were able to entertain in the private dining room, have a large pool party and also had plenty of space to enjoy all aspects of the Villa in sun and shade. Walked or bussed so easily. Local bars offer a pick up and drop back service for free. Superb communication with owners and a quick text got an immediate response and advice or contact number to us very fast. We loved it and are considering buying there now. Highly recommend both the Villa and the owners. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience. Looking forward to going back again.

by Una on 16.04.2013 Pristine luxurious Villa, fab pool, great location. Accessible to everything so easily, no car required as beach, shops and restaurants 10 mins away. Open Market full of great fresh fruit and veg, eggs literally warm from hens. Mountain View Villa is set further away from the busy night life so noise is not an issue but still within walking distance and all bars/restaurants do a pick up and drop back. We were able to walk in the countryside or down to the beach so easily. We took the local bus into Alanya to see the Castle and harbour and the views are spectacular. The villa is really well equipped with many extras for making the stay special and the owners were most helpful and at the end of the phone or text to help us out with trips and advice as we were staying for over a month. They arranged for some local bar owners to pick us up for various events and advise on the area. The Villa is really large and plenty of space for a large group to have private areas if they wanted. Our caretakers were 2 mins away and most helpful. Would go back in a heartbeat.Thank you so much for a super vacation.
Advertiser's reply on 17.04.2013 Delighted that you enjoyed your 5 weeks there and got to try living there to see if you might retire there eventually. Thank you for your helpful review. |
by Cheryl Lane on 06.08.2012 Very clean and comfortable villa. Had a very nice pool! Everything that was needed was available in the villa, towels, hair dryers, adaptors and even mosquito repellant plugs! The owners were very friendly and helpful, arranged taxi tranfers to and from airport. They were at the end of the phone if we needed anything, had Turkish contacts who helped us out when needed and came to clean the pool regularly. Recommended Atmosphere, a local restaurant, and people there were very helpful as well.
The only down side was that the villa was largely overlooked, which was disappointing. However, the other villas/apartment blocks were on the whole uninhabited so it didn\'t matter to us.
The villa is also situated on quite a steep hill, we decided to rent a car on the third day to help us get around, car rental was extremely reasonably priced.
Nightlife is nearby Alanya was quite vibrant, we were shown the places to go by the local restaurant owner! (Adult children, 22 & 24).
Overall a very relaxing holiday!
Advertiser's reply on 31.08.2012 So pleased to hear that it was an enjoyable. To be in a Villa this close to the beach and walking distances to shops, bus , bars etc, as I said in the advertisement we do loose out a little in the views except for the roof terrace but at least we are not totally surrounded. Most people use a taxi or the restaurant pick and drop up to Villa at night if they go out for a meal anyhow so it is not necessarily a problem. Sorry that you were disappointed with that as I know you were looking forward to the vacation but at least as you say it was not a major problem and otherwise you would have been way up the Mountain totally isolated. Thank you for choosing to stay with us this year and your lovely review. Looking forward to seeing you again. |
by Debbie Keyes on 04.07.2012 My family stayed at the villa for 10 days in June. We have three children ranging in age from 13 to 3. Our son has special needs this was the reason we wanted to rent the villa with private pool. Villa was very clean and spacious and had everything we needed. It\'s in walking distance to all restaurants shops and the beach so there is no need for car hire. The pool was clean and was attended twice a day. The villa is up a small hill this didn\'t cause us to much problem as most of the restaurants offer a pick up and drop home service. We had our best family holiday ever and would have no hesitation returning to the villa.
Advertiser's reply on 13.07.2012 Debbie, delighted that our Villa was suitable for your family especially for your son with special needs, I understand from speaking with you that having the extra space and your own pool meant for a better vacation for all of you than previously. We hope to see you all back very soon. Thank you for the kind review. Grainne |
