The villa is so good we returned for a second stay! (please see our previous review from Aug 08). A lovely and relaxing holiday again, it really cant be faulted. Highley recommended.

The pool and garden were excellent and the bar area provides seating in shade from the sun when required.
Good communication from the owners re. our arrival.
The property exceeded all our expectations. It was immaculate and the accommodation and surroundings were perfect for a family holiday. We also received excellent communication from the owners.
The accommodation was disappointing.
The fans provided were very inadequate for the climate (overhead fan in one bedroom was worn out). There was no DVD, ironing board etc. and old chewing gum and rubbish was found under settee cushions.
Although the garden and pool were lovely as advertised on the website, Im afraid we would not have rented this villa anex with prior knowledge of its condition.
This property needs to be updat ed to bring it into the Luxury class.

We found these comments rather odd, since every other client this year without exception had a good experience. The DVD player was provided, and this guest actually left two dvd's on top of the machine - we don't understand this. Regarding the fans, possibly a fair comment - they are a few years old, however next year we will provide air conditioning so this will overcome the problem.
The pool and garden area far exceeded our expectations. The setting is quite lovely and completely secluded. Sun is available all day in the garden for the sunworshippers (my wife!) and the naya provides a peaceful and comfortable shaded area. Calpe beach and plenty of bars and restaurants are a 15 minute walk away but the villa is so lovely it is hard leave. I would definately recommend this villa and hope to return again.
We were all delighted with the facillities at this property, the pool, the bar, the garden and the accomodation were all first rate. My children especially enjoyed the pool and secluded garden.

We have since updated and improved the directions to the property and now it is very easy to find. With regards to the hot water, the boiler has been replaced and this is no longer a problem. This year (2008) we have improved many of the facilities and also have an excellent changeover/cleaning person who also is on call should there be any unforseen problems. We aim to maintain a high standard and hope our visitors continue to enjoy their stay with us. Regards Michelle Sutton
We had a great weeks stay here in Calpe! As soon as we arrived to the villa we was made welcome and settled in straight away to begin our week of relaxation. The villa is beautiful and has everything you need. The pool amazing so clean and kept so well! We used the restaurants a short walk away we loved the Japanese restaurant and the Italian pizzas were delicious, perfect for a takeaway to enjoy back at the villa. We didn’t have a car so was a bit worried on how we would manage the supermarket but it was no problem the supermarket was a 10 minute walk and the little shopping trolleys left in the room outside really helped getting our shopping home. Overall a fantastic week here and I’m sure we will be returning! Thank you for a wonderful holiday!
Total: 5.0 of 5 stars.... We truly escaped from the world at Peace and Plenty villa. The garden, pool, naya and bar are completely private and we could relax, read, swim and be ourselves. It’s rare to find somewhere so calm and relaxing. 20 minutes walk from beautiful beaches where we could swim with the fish and watch the waves. Local restaurants are surprisingly close by and very good. We’ve been to Spain for villa holidays for 20 years. This is by far the best villa.
