About

Hi, my name is Peter Reilly. I come from just outside Glasgow, and along with my wife Nicola we were lucky enough to purchase this lovely villa in 2018. We have been holidaying in Playa Blanca for around 15 years with our 3 young children (all now young adults), and completely fell in love with it. We hope that you will love it as much as we do.

We had a great 2 week stay. The villa was perfect, very well equipped. We had an issue with the water heater which was rectified very swiftly by the management company. All in all a lovely stay. It is an easy walk to the resort which takes about 15 mins.

Sorry for the late review but we absolutely loved our stay here at this villa From the moment we arrived at ACE aww were met but our pre arranged transfer (zip) who were very friendly and the transport was lovely and clean with AC. When we arrived at the villa we were not disappointed it was exactly as promoted spacious clean with everything we needed. The outside dining area was covered for welcome relief from the sun and the pool was delightful There was plenty of seating both in and out the villa even though we were a family of 4 there was plenty for the maximum group number Bedrooms were spacious causing sibling rivalry for the very large downstairs bedroom!! My son is an athlete so promptly joined the gym which was about 5 mins walk away which he praised highly stating the environment was amazing inside very accommodating and the equipment to a very high standard he went every day and loved it! The villa is about 10-15 min walk to main strip but it’s an easy walk flat paved well lit at night there is a small area of waste ground you walk on to get to the path but fairly smooth no cause for concern. There is everything you need on the main strip from the harbour one side to the marina on the other which I will add was beautiful with gorgeous restaurants and little shops, everyone we met were so friendly and welcoming We had lovely meals but really enjoyed the Chinese at the royal (next to the Irish bar) sorry forgot what it was called it was an all you can eat buffet and was fabulous The villa was very well equipped with all essentials needed and more! Very home from home. There is a beautiful palm tree in the garden so when you are drifting into slumber the breeze is gently blowing the palms which makes it sound like you are laying on the beach with the sound of gentle waves lapping at the shore so beautiful and relaxing. The weather was lovely too, you are always going to get a breeze there but I will say I got the best tan ever on this holiday so definitely not put off. The communication with Peter and Nikki was excellent everything was explained very clearly before arrival and they were more than happy to answer any queries along the way. We had a fantastic stay here at Villa Hibiscus and would definitely be returning Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday at your villa Xx Sharonie

Nice villa with good pool.Heated pool required maintenance a couple of times but did not effect us in any way.It was a bit of atrial down to the resort ,although manageable.If there was any critism any one renting with toddlers the villa would benefit with a strair gate. Good bar "El Tonel"around the corner which provided excellent take away pizza.There is also a cash & carry within 10 mins .

Party consisted of 4 year old up to 75 year old! Villa Very cold, no heating. Pool, very cold. Beds and sofas uncomfortable. Kitchen too small. Bathrooms floors were very slippy and damp from upstairs shower was coming through living room ceiling! Day of arrival at 1.35 (and after very tiring journey) we were told to go for a walk or go shopping, for at least an hour and a half, as cleaning still in progress!

Hi Lynne Many thanks for you review, so sorry to hear that it was not to your liking, unfortunately the weather has not been as good as normal for this time of year possibly causing the villa not to be as warm as normal and the same with the swimming pool which we have no control over,we do have an electric fire that could have been used upon request we do not leave out as people tend to use when not required, the damp mentioned is not damp we had a slight leak which has left a small mark, also we are very surprised the kitchen was to small as it is not exaggerated in anyway on the web site. After staying at our property you will notice our furniture is not cheap and old like many properties. Check in is stated on the website, check in after 2.00pm and check out is 10.00am. Once again please accept our sincere apologies that our property was not suitable for your party and hope you have enjoyable holidays in the future. Kind Regards Kerry&Jeff

A lovely villa in a quiet area with a nice pool and outdoor seating area. Not too far to walk down to the main resort although it is a good 15-20min walk and there's nothing but a main road and wasteland on the walk down until you get nearer the resort centre-a taxi for 4 Euros is a must as it would be far too dark and lonely to walk up at night. The whole family loved the villa and my only disappointment was that there was no shop within easy walking distance for necessities like water etc. All the food shopping had to be bought at either the Eurostar or HiperDino in town.

The villa is well equipped and very comfortable. We did have a few minor unforeseeable problems which Kerry made arrangements to have them resolved as quickly as possible in a very courteous and professional manner, nothing was too much trouble for her. I would definitely recommend Casa Hibiscus for a relaxing holiday with friends or family. One little tip would be to provide a guest book with instructions for appliances, and where guests could leave recommendations for restaurants etc. One restaurant I would not recommend is the one next to The Irish Anvil bar - not one of our party of 5 could eat their meal, and all were returned virtually untouched. However the steaks in The Irish Anvil bar are yummy and very good value. Thanks Kerry, hopefully I will return one day xx
