Fantastic holiday in Las Palomas!

Up in the hills with great views and yet just a 6 min dive to the beach. A beautiful modern property with rustic qualities, a fantastic pool and 3 lovely terraces to watch the sun go up or down! Would recommend highly to anyone who wants to relax and enjoy the sun!

Wonderful house and fantastic stay

We stayed for a week in this house. Jean-Luc, the host, and Lee warmly welcomed us upon our arrival. Jean-Luc also kindly gave us some snacks and a variety of drinks as a welcome present. The house is perfectly equipped with everything you need (and you can imagine!). Condiments, spices, coffee, tea bags, and kitchen towels were also available in the kitchen. The house is stunning and even more beautiful than shown in the photos. The pool is heated, and that makes a big difference, making it super comfortable to swim even if the weather is not great. The view is breathtaking, and the area is tranquil. Various beaches and villages nearby can be reached by car in just a few minutes. We will return and recommend the house/host—thanks to Jean-Luc for this pleasant stay.

Wonderful stay / wonderful house

We had a stay of 7 days in this house. Upon our arrival we were warmly welcomed by Mrs. Lee. Shortly afterwards, Mr NICAISE came in person and presented us with a welcome present. The house is perfectly equipped. All basic equipment (toilet paper, spices, garbage bags. . . ) were already in the house, so we could enjoy the arrival without direct shopping. The house is even nicer than shown on the photos. The view is breathtaking and the area is very quiet. It remains to be mentioned that the housekeeper asked for extra requests before our arrival, which she also complied with. We will definitely come back again and recommend the house / landlord. Many thanks to Mrs. Lee and Mr. NICAISE for this pleasant stay. Best regards, Corinne

Wonderful house with a great view.

Perfect for us, two families with children age 3-6. The children loved the pool. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and in a quiet area. The only thing that was not excellent was the distance to the sea. (About 10-15 minutes drive.)

Everything about Las Palomas was perfect. The villa was exactly as advertised. Instructions were clear and helpful. And the weather was amazing. Las Palomas is perfect for staying with children. Everything you need is there - high chair, pool toys, plastic dishes. I would definitely recommend Las Palomas to anyone I knew heading to the area.

Beautiful Villa with a fantastic view. The owners are very helpful and created a fantastic holiday home. Very family friendly.

Estuvimos en esta estancia 5 días dos matrimonios con nuestros respectivos hijos, y en líneas generales fue fantástico. Los niños disfrutaron muchísimos y los padres también. Las fotos del anuncio son tal y como aparecen en realidad, la higiene es total. Es una casa muy acogedora y tiene todo lo que necesitas para disfrutar de la estancia. Además, la persona de contacto Lee, es una mujer encantadora y servicial. Sin duda, repetiremos.

Semana maravillosa en Casa Paloma, la Herradura y alrededores

Casa Paloma es una maravilla!!!. El dueño de la casa es super amable, muy detallista, nos dejó a nuestra llegada unos snacks, cervezas, agua, entre otras cosas. Muy dispuesto a ayudar y resolver cualquier duda o pregunta que se tenga sobre la casa o la zona. La casa está super equipada, tiene todo lo que se necesita para pasar unas vacaciones en la playa: cocina completamente equipada con todos los artefactos eléctricos, varias neveras, vinera, tostadores, vitro, horno, licuadora, cristalería, cubertería, toallas, sábanas, entre otras cosas. Lavadora y secadora, aire acondicionado central en las dos plantas de la casa. Tiene televisión por cable con muchos canales. Tiene una barbacoa genial. Varias terrazas con mesas y sillas para comer, leer, sentarse y relajarse, porque todas tienen una increíble vista. La piscina es muy buena, la temperatura perfecta para bañarse y tiene una vista inmejorable a toda la playa de la Herradura. Las tres habitaciones están muy cómodas, dos de ellas con cama doble y en la tercera es genial porque tiene dos literas y una cama individual. Genial para 9 personas, que éramos justamente nosotros. Dos baños con ducha. Sin duda alguna ha sido un descubrimiento y un acierto, no solo por la casa sino por la zona, donde hay muchas playas y calas que son espectaculares. Farmacia, mercados, restaurantes cerca (en coche). Repetiremos sin dudas el año que viene. Muchas gracias al propietario por todas las atenciones durante nuestra estancia.

Magnifique séjour avec vue de la Méditerranée

La villa est impeccable et la vue incroyable et ce à plusieurs endroits sur la propriété. La cuisine est entièrement équipée comme j’ai rarement vu et j’ai loué plusieurs résidences de vacances. Il y a beaucoup de nourritures et de breuvages disponibles à l’arrivée ce qui est très apprécié. Pour les plus frileux, sachez que la piscine est chauffé avec une toile solaire ce qui amplement suffisant. Bien entendue, il faut une voiture pour visiter la région (plages, villages, grotte et autres sont à environ 15 à 20 minutes). Mais ça ne paraît vraiment pas long compte tenu de la beauté du paysage. Jean-Luc est aussi sympathique et avenant. Les instructions sont aussi très claires et envoyées à l’avance et aussi disponible sur place. Finalement un séjour juste parfait!

Traumhaftes Haus! Unvergesslicher Urlaub

Besser kann Urlaub nicht sein. Ein traumhaft schönes Haus, ein toller privater Pool ein extrem netter und hilfsbereiter Vermieter und das phänomenale Panorama auf das Meer. Wir haben 2 Wochen in der Villa „Casa La Paloma“ verbracht und unsere Erwartungen wurden in allen Disziplinen weit übertroffen. Angefangen von der Ausstattung der Villa, die wirklich alles bietet was man sich nur vorstellen kann, ein unvergleichliches Panorama von den Terrassen auf das Meer und die Bucht von La Herradura, der große und warme Pool und nicht zuletzt der ausgezeichnete Service von Lee und dem Eigentümer. Die Lage ist perfekt um Tagesausflüge in Andalusien zu machen. Wir waren mit dem Auto dort und haben während unseres Aufenthaltes Touren nach Malaga, Córdoba, Ronda, Granada und El Chorro gemacht. Eine absolute Empfehlung und nochmal ganz herzlichen Dank an Lee und Jean-Luc für den wundervollen Urlaub.
