Just back from a week in the villa and it is beautiful.  I personally think the pictures dont do it any adjust as the villa and pool are bigger than u think! The villa has everything you need and more! The house was spotless and the pool too! Very close to shops &amp; restaurants which was handy as we had a 1year old. Never made the beach as the taxi service was unreliable and struggled with the bus times. Everywhere was a bit quiet but all restaurants and bars are brilliant and all really friendly! I have recommended this place already to family &amp; friends. Owners seem really nice have been communicating through email with them and I am awaiting on reply about booking up next year, hopefully we can get the dates and we will be back every year if we can afford it! Thanks xx

Villa with private pool

A NICE VILLA TO STAY IN WITH GOOD ACCESS TO GOLF COURSES

 From Market Rasen, United Kingdom

Holiday Dates:  24th -31st August 2012 

Cannot fault this beautiful holiday home - owners were really accommodating and e-mailed through a lot of information about the villa, area and fantastic directions to the villa.  We were met on arrival with a warm welcome by the owners who showed us around.  Villa is definately a home from home, everything we needed was in the villa and best of all, for the kids, a lovely well maintained private pool with lots of pool inflatables.  We enjoyed the pool area during the day and the lovely front balcony in the evening - ideal for an evening drink.  The villa itself was very clean with lots of space.

Lots of pubs and places to eat nearby (local chinese restaurant at bottom of street worth a visit) and enjoyed a couple of evening in the nearby Villamartin Plaza (only 5 mins drive from villa).   Shops were also handy, next to local strip of pubs.  La Zenia beach was about 10 mins away - which the kids loved and found it clean and safe with lifeguards.  

Definite value for money with this beautiful holiday home and wound definitely recommend it to friend.  Thanks again Jill and John,

 From Chester Le Street, United Kingdom

We all had a wonderful holiday (a mixed age party ranging from 2 to 40 ish). The house was a home from home with the added bonus of a pool, which was a God send! Temps during the day never went below 40 degrees.
The area is mainly english with many good bars and restaraunts, all good value for money and within walking distance.
 Villa Martin is a must to see the parrots in the trees, although best to go early evening. La Zenia beach was great and a safe place for children to play.
The bus service was good and would take you to the beach, journey time 15 mins, although dont rely on the timetable!
Jill was amazing making every effort to make sure everything ran smoothly, from getting the keys in the post to organinsing taxi transfers to the airport. Thank you Jill.

23rd August - 6th September

Ages 70, 69, 35, 32, 7 and 4
 Just returned from 2 fantastic weeks at this villa.  The pictures on here do not do the property justice.  The villa was equipped with almost everything you need.  The swimming pool was fantastic and bigger than what we thought after looking at the pictures.  Was great getting up in the morning and sitting eating breakfast by the pool.  The sun shines on the pool all day, excellent location.
We did not hire a car as found everything we needed was in the local vicinity, although we did use the buses to get to the beach at La Zenia and Campoamar, which only took about 10 -15 minutes and only 1.15 euro each.  Took taxi to Playa Flamenca Market one Saturday and very reasonably priced at 9.80 euro each way.  We arranged our own transfers from the airport which were more than half the price we had been quoted by the local taxi company.  We flew into Alicante and journey to villa took about 45 minutes and was a  pleasant drive.
First night we had dinner at the Captains Table around the corner from the villa and the portions were HUGE.  Best advice is to share or get takeaway and share portions.  Chinese restaurant a few doors down the street was excellent value for money.  All the bar/restaurant staff were very friendly.  Would recommend this villa to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday wishing to do things at their own pace.  We all loved the pool and was a godsend to cool down in as temperatures ranged between 32-47 degrees throughout the whole 2 weeks.  We had a couple hours of showers one day and then by mid afternoon, sun was out and temperature 36 degrees.   Air conditioning was needed on a night time, especially for kids as they wouldnt have been able to sleep for the heat.
This was our first holiday experience where we booked privately and didnt use a travel agent, and can safely say will probably never use a travel agent again.  Many thanks to Jill and John for letting us rent your beautiful villa and the smooth booking experience and even hand delivering the property keys.  Will definitely consider returning for another holiday

 From Blyth, Northumberland

The  property is the perfect size for a family and is really very well equipped. 
The owners have done everything they can to ensure there is every implement, toy and device on hand for the perfect holiday.
We were really impressed with all the inflatables provided for the pool. ( Dont make the mistake we did and haul things out from the UK, theres no need!)

We had only two criticismsfewer breakable ornaments. They dont really mix very well with small children and a better or new air onditioning system in the sitting room.

Other than that we had a pleasant and enjoyable stay.

 From Wallington

We had a fantastic holiday and the villa lived up to all our expectations. 
The villa is very clean and well kept with ample living space. 
The swimming pool is excellant and bigger than we expected and we all spent many happy hours in it.
In summary it's a very good villa in a good location. There is plenty of things to do in the local vacinity although a car is essential for getting out and about and visiting the beaches.

Airport transfers were stress free organised by Jill and Jim.  The villas was so well equipped we wanted for nothing and the weather was brilliant all week. We spent the time sunbathing, reading, eating and drinking usually be the pool.  We enjoyed Villa Martin Plaze for eating as well as the Chinese restaurantat at the end of the street.  ( 4 houses away)  The men enjoyed a game of golf at villa martin and the local Mercadona supermarket was reasonable.  Wed recommend the villa to couples and families alike and would like to thank Jill and Jim for a lovely holiday.

5th - 17th August 2011  Had a great time the weather was red hot but the house is versatile if you want to be in the shade or sun you have the choice.  The pool was a godsend to cool off and was great to have airbeds and toys available.  Went to Rio Safari which was 20euros each and ok. Went on the go-carts at Punta Prima it was excellent and ate many nights at La Fuente the local commercial centre, as well as Torre de la Horadada and Torrevieja.  Did the local markets but it was generally too hot to be in enclosed spaces - couldnt wait to get back to the pool to cool off.

The house is lovely and the weather brilliant. We have eaten at the English pub up the road and the children were entertained by the bouncy castle and play area.after a week using the bus we hired a car and visited many places including Toerrviea market and shops.  The local restaurants including the chinese and captains table were very good for food.  The 3 weekks flew by with great weather and a lovely house and pool with everything supplied.
