Amazing Villa With Amazing Sea View And Private Large Heated Pool, Private Road
Villa El Gallo is located in La Herradura bay on the Punta de la Mona with exceptional views of the beach, village and mountains and good access to the N340 motorway. This luxury, five bedroom villa is situated in a beautiful, quiet complex of detached properties, approached by a secure, gated entrance with lovely pine woodlands. It affords magnificent and quite exceptional sea views over the bay of La Herradura with a backdrop of the mountains beyond. Stunning sun-sets and spectacular views across the bay are just part of the charm of this villa.

La Herradura is one of the few remaining un-spoilt villages on the Costa Tropical, that can offer a truly Spanish experience in a wonderful, tranquil environment. The town is situated on the beach road with many outside bars and restaurants offering first rate food.

Fabulous Villa
Fabulous villa up in the hills with amazing views. Very well equipped and as described on the website. The pool was great. Excellent information provided by the rental company and at the villa. The hills can be challenging if you’re not fit and mobile a car is recommended. Would highly recommend!

Lovely Location
Generally an excellent location and the Villa is well appointed and well maintained, albeit a little tired in places.
The ameneties were as expected and it was clear some of the issues raised by previous guests had been addressed (hob, fridge, cutlery etc).
The outside area was a lovely space and well equipped with tables/chairs and sun-loungers and the barbecue was a much appreciated and well used feature.
We were using the villa as a base for a cycling holiday, so the pool was a very welcome 'cool down' facility and was clean and maintained well (The pool person visited whilst we were there).
The views back to town, overy the bay and the surrounding hills are stunning and nice to sit around outside and look at whilst having a post-ride drink.
Some small things to be aware of though. The property has a lot of steps to get from the gate to the villa. Fine for most, but may be a challenge for some. The walk to town is relatively short in distance but is quite a 'pull' back up the hill and may also be a challenge for some people.
We rented the property becasue it states 9 seperate beds which is what we needed (9 blokes - we won't share!) but on arrival it was clear there were only 8. There was a foldaway bed we found that we could use for the 9th, and a quick call to the local contact meant we had bedding for it quickly, but if the 9th bed is that foldaway, then that should be clearer.
All in all, a very nice villa and I would stay there again.

The most amazing views
We arrived at 4pm in line with check-in time, however, the cleaning team were still there. We did feel a little like we were in the way and were intruding despite the fact that we weren't early.
Overall, the villa was incredible and views were absolutely stunning. Completely fit for purpose. Pool was perfect and outdoor shower was really refreshing. Aircon worked well. My daughter slept in the 1 x non-aircon room, but as she had an ice-pack with her and one of the many fans on, she was fine. Beds were really comfortable too. The only thing to mention which may need to be attended to was the leak next to or from the fridge. Walk into town could be slightly treacherous if less able-footed, however, we did find an alternative route on the last day. The location was really close to town though. A great base for exploring a little of Southern Spain. We would recommend and would definitely book again.

Excellent house for a family holiday with amazing views.
We had a wonderful family holiday in this lovely villa. There were 8 adults and 4 children in our group and there was ample room for everyone. Villa very well equipped and good sized pool and garden was a great amenity to have for the children in particular. Only drawback was the hill back from town - quite a climb!

Villa qui ne vaut pas son prix
10eme fois à la Herradura et 2nde fois dans cette villa, sept ans plus tard. Personnel de ménage nous disant où dormir pour ne pas faire tous les lits (il a fallu négocier pour choisir notre chambre…). Le mobilier est vieillissant. L’électroménager bas de gamme. Le micro onde est insalubre, la cafetière aussi. Le dressing est rempli à moitié des affaires des propriétaires. La terrasse est abîmée, les pots de fleurs cassés, la piscine pas nettoyée de la semaine. Côté vaisselle, pas plus de 6 assiettes identiques. Aucun plat pour le four. Une seule clé pour la villa et impossible de sortir sans. Le salon de jardin est abîmé, la table de jardin pourrie tout comme le parasol qu’il faut nouer pour qu’il tienne en place. C’est bien la dernière fois dans cette villa qui ne vaut absolument pas son prix. Bref, un mélange de déception et frustration pour cette très chère réservation de dernière minute.

Das geräumige Haus ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Der Panoramablick ist einfach unschlagbar!
Der Fußweg zum Ort dauert etwa 15 Minuten, der Weg zurück etwas länger wegen des Anstiegs.
Die Zimmer sind alle groß genug und unterschiedlich eingerichtet. Das Ferienhaus bietet viel Platz sowohl innen als aussen.
