We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Lucia, the property is very well appointed and decorated. It provided a perfect base for Granada and the Alhambra, and the surrounding areas eg Alpujarra.
 
The outdoor pool area in the evening provides a lovely setting to enjoy a drink or meal.

I would thoroughly recommend this property.

The property was excellent, the pool was fantastic. Very private and self contained. The locals were very friendly, as previously mentioned a working knowledge of Spanish is useful however we managed to muddle through with atrocious accents a phrase book and plenty of smiling from all involved. Our thanks to Jackie and Simon for making us feel so welcome and for all their help. We left after the first night of fiesta and would have loved to have seen the whole weekend of it. Maybe another year. We had a brilliant holiday either relaxing by the pool or on day trips out exploring the surrounding area. Many thanks :)

"The property is very nice indeed. Its actually both nicer and larger than it appears in the photos on the website. It is very well equipped indeed with good quality items and the owner has added many personal touches which means that its more like staying in someones home than a holiday villa. I must say the owner is very trusting to leave so many personal items there. We have a villa in Florida and had many personal items stolen, but perhaps thats a cultural difference between European and US guests? The underfloor heating makes the house very warm and cosy even when its not so warm outside. We did had a problem with the boiler but Martin the local agent came promptly and reset it with the button and then it was fine. The pool is beautiful but it was too cold to use in October. The property also has a Sky DigiBox so we were able to get UK TV channels which is really nice. My 5-year old son summed it up best when he said "The only thing wrong with this house is that it doesnt have the internet". (He was missing cbbc.co.uk and lego.com!) But we did experience a lot of noise from the building site next door. Every weekday morning at 8am prompt the drilling and hammering started. Ive never known a building that required so much drilling and hammering! Perhaps they built it wrong and now need to fix it? And the building site is attached (terraced) to the house so it does go through the house. But we cant complain, the owner did warn us about that. The only other issue is the parking there. The streets are very narrow and you can get blocked in, especially with the road closed to cars past the building site next door. One other thing: The directions say leave the motorway at junction 152. Its 153 actually. And the directions to the property currently dont really work in that the road is closed due to the building site next door. You need to go around the block to get to the property. Not a problem, but it caused us a bit of hassle trying to find it at 11pm and finding that the directions are no longer valid (with the road closed). But it only cost us an extra 15 mins of driving around the village. Really, the village is slow small that it only takes 15 mins to drive around all of it! One more tip for other visitors: Orgiva is lovely, Lanjarron is horrible! And Pampaneira and Capileira are lovely too, but take a little while to get to. "

This property is definatly for lovers of real spain.
Is set in a lovely village with friendly locals and surrounded by intersting towns and wonderful scenery.
The villa its self was large and airy and even though the temperature 35c - 40c inside was lovely and cool.  
Its a real home from home everything you need and much more.

Villa Azure is a fantastic place to stay, I can thoroughly recommend it. It's in a perfect position, just 5-10 minutes walk from the centre and harbour for all the departing boat trips.
It's peaceful and quiet in the evening, with the bars and restaurants just out of earshot.
The setting is beautiful, with the mountain back drop and lemon groves.
The facilities are fantastic with a pool which is cleaned daily, 4 en suite bedrooms all with air con, and all mod cons like washing machine, dishwasher, tv etc.
The owners were extremely helpful in offering advice and suggesting excursions and restaurants, and were a pleasure to deal with.
We were a family of 4 adults and 3 children and had a great time, but this would be perfect for just adults too. Thanks, Keith.

A traditional spanish villa from the outside with everything you need domestically on the inside and with a real home from home feel. The pool was a lovely size and looked very inviting but was too cold at the begining of April for my children to dip more than a toe in. The rooms in the villa were very spacious which is a real asset in very hot or slightly cool weather. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Excellent location and an accurate description satisfied our expectations for a quiet twe week, autumn (out of the tourist season) holiday. Minus for little storage space for our own things and some maintenance failures, Nice, private terrace and beautiful views. We did not bother to use the private pool that was located a short walk to some other place across the main road. We are happy to recommend the flat for couples (little space for more than 2 persons) who accept to carry luggage in a narrow staircase up two stories to the entrance.

 From Salisbury, United Kingdom

Beatifully restored in a simple fashion to make the most of the original features. 
Large rooms, lovely views from roof terrace;
ample outside space to enjoy the weather.
Excellently equipped house.
Surroundings breathtaking; village had everything required for a simple, authentic Spanish experience.
Within easy reach of main routes to coast &amp; Granada.
Would go again!

 From Sale, United Kingdom

This house is in a great location, close to Periers, a delightful french town and also very convenient for great beaches.  It is a practical house with wooden &amp; tiled floors. The two good showers were great after a day on the beach.  It is a comfortable but not luxurious house and the garden is small.  It is good value for money. 
The stream and pond mentioned are on the next-door neighbours property and are not accessible or easily viewed. This could be misunderstood from the description.
