About

Born 1965 and brought up in Sheffield U.K. I am a qualified carpenter and builder by trade. I came to Jersey C.I in 1989 because of work and decided to stay. I like the quiet life and love to be near the beach so Jersey suits me. I have family who live in Lanzarote. I did not particularly want to be on their doorstep and I prefer to have a more relaxing holiday. Lanzarote is only 45 minutes on the ferry so it is no problem visiting each other when I stay in Corralejo. Fuerteventura is the last of the canaries to be developed and has therefore has learnt from the mistakes that the other Islands have made and not made the same mistakes. A lot of people who live and work in the other Islands take their holidays in Fuerteventura because of this.These are also the reasons why I chose Corralejo for my holiday home.

Just back from 9 night stay. Villa is lovely, with a good range of amenities. In a very peaceful and relaxing area. The pool was a god-send as the weather was fantastic. We used the BBQ to grill fresh fish from the local shop. The advert is entirely accurate in that it is not possible to walk into the town due to the roads, but I think you need a car to explore the island anyway. I would thoroughly recommend this villa for couples or small families.

Thank you for your review, it sums up the house and area perfectly. Buses and taxis are regular and cheap, but hiring a car is better as there's plenty to see and do and see around the Island and the roads are immaculate to drive on. Many thanks for your comments Regards Mick

villa was excellent, very modern and clean. outside space is very generous and the pool is phenomenal, very warm and just the right size. villa would benefit greatly from having WIFI, we thought WIFI would be available as per the villa description, but this was that WIFI was available and payed separately. location wise, the immediate amenities are a little limited, local supermarket somewhat basic and the bar shooters doesnt do breakfast etc. but only a 5 minute easy drive into the main strip of Coralejo, where there is everything you would need. i would recommend hiring a car, i had never driven abroad before but found it really easy as the roads are very good and traffic light.. overall a great villa with everything you would need and very good value for money, we would certainly consider staying there again in future. ps. we managed to get both sky sports and movies on the tv, not sure if the owner is aware that they are available

Beautiful property, very clean and well kept. A bus ride from Corralajo which was a bit further than anticipated but with an hourly bus service and relatively cheap taxis, we were able to get about. Supermarket is a 2 minute walk with a sports bar and cafe on the complex. Marion was extremely friendly and helpful. Many Thanks

Just arrived back after 10 days in this villa, the villa was spot on well maintained and had everything there for holiday taxi into town cost us about €6 and bus cost €1.40 we found the best beach to be near sand dunes and only cost €11 to get there by taxi the main corralejo town is nice pace with nice food and bars around we lived in rrock cafe bar for meals and night entertainment, overall the villa is a great villa if you hire a car. You maybe able to get more out. Of the island than we did for a excursion the excursion buggys is a must do trip! The oasis park is great aswell to swim with sea lions and see other animals. Thanks again for a great villa.

We have just returned from a week in this fantastic Villa. We thought the Villa was exceptional value for money, a big size and with a great family pool. The Villa had everything you want and we felt the location was also very good. We will be returning, thank you.

Great house, great position, 5 min of driving to Corralejo Grandes Playas. Im definitely coming back to this house. House is very clean, everything seems new and useful, especially SKY system during champions league match. I recommend this property to everyone, because we really enjoyed there.

We really enjoyed our holiday at casa miguel, and would have no hesitation in recomending the villa to friends and family. Its well situated for local shop and bus stop, we our even considering re-booking for next year. Its a great base for the local beaches and allthough we hired a car the buses run like clock work and the taxis are reasonable.

arrive at 10.30pm on a saturday night..found the key safe straight away but couldnt access it for 10mins because it was to dark to see.we eventually pooled our phones to get light.then all we wanted to do was sit down and hv a few drinks..but their wasnt anything..the supermarket was closed so we headed to the bar and bought cokes and milk to take home. we couldnt get beer unless we stayed at the bar.the villa was adequate for the 6 of us..3 adults and 3 teenagers.however the pool is quite small and we found the blue paint around the pool kept getting on our swim wear and hands. their is no air conditioning.they provide small fans that simple blow the hot air around but no actual proper air conditioning blowing out cold air.so this should be removed from the facilities section..the villa is located in a residential area which consists of 1 pub and 1 bar/restaurant, both of which r excellent..but to go into corralejo which is a lively resort full of restaurants and shops. we had to get a bus costing 8 euros in and a taxi back costing 10 euros.this made a 2 week holiday very expensive if u dont drive.with the description saying its only 3 mins to town is misleading because it gives u the impression u can walk it and u cant.how ever .i would recommend this villa..its clean and its management team r fanstastic. and if yr looking for a quite holiday .its bliss.however would strongly recommend a car.
