One of the best…
We have stayed in many Spanish villas over 20 years: this was undoubtedly one of the best. Superbly appointed, it was so refreshing (for instance) to find a place with more than enough crockery etc to provide for a large group even when the dishwasher was full! Add to this an exceptional hospitality pack and we had a very real real sense of being welcomed in the property. There were four very comfortable double/single bedrooms with full air-conditioning and then a fifth “box room” that can take a single bed with a portable (though a little noisy) AC unit. The lounge was spacious with more than enough seating for our party of eight, and at the back of that room a dining table for the option of eating indoors. Most of our meals were taken outdoors, however, on the superb, terraced area which boasted wonderful views over Alcalali and the Jalon valley beyond. A real bonus was the furnished seating area to the right of the dining terrace: a great location for evening cocktails! And last, but not least, a superb swimming pool, again with knock-out views. Alcalali itself (a 10–15 minute walk down into town) is a nice, quiet place with some lovely relaxing bars and eating opportunities, and more just five minute’s drive into Jalon (Xalo) which also has a very good “Mas-y-Mas” supermarket. We found as well that Mercadona would deliver online orders. Add to all this excellent communications from the hosts and it should be clear that this property is highly recommended. Don’t miss it!
