Great villa with excellent amenities.Would highly recommend for large families or friends wanting a group getaway.Only issue for us was the road resurfacing which impacted our use of the villa over a couple of days with lots of noise and dust. The owners were quick to send out the pool cleaners again the following day which was greatly appreciated.

Fantastic Villa

Fantastic villa, everything to hand, fabulous views. We were 7 adults and 6 children ranging from a 1year old to a 10 year old. Plenty of room for everyone. Undercover area was great enabling us all to gather and eat together. Lovely pool enjoyed by everyone. Will definitely look to return in the future.

Wonderful House

We were a family group of 10 including a baby and a 4 yo. The house is just as in the pictures, spacious with lots of comfortable seating in different areas and a lovely, although unheated, pool. There is a huge, well equipped kitchen and excellent built in BBQ at the back. All bedrooms had large comfortable beds and 4 en-suites were a bonus. We hardly left the property except for grocery shopping and very much enjoyed the quiet surroundings. Our only niggle was lack of sunshades near the pool which meant baby and mother were unable to join the group. Highly recommend to other large groups.

We loved everything. The house was amazing. The neighborhood was amazing. The pool was so beautiful with the ocean in the background. There is also a beautiful mountain view. We loved that the location was not too far from the airport. It’s easy to walk into town or drive to nearby cities.

Birthday Celebration

Villa Gitanilla was a beautiful property in a quiet neighbourhood. The villa was well equipped and just as pictured on the inside,very clean. Outside areas were great with a beautiful pool area for us all. Emily arranged taxi for us to and from the property from the airport and was there to greet us. We arrived early and were able to change and leave our luggage in the garage before we returned for the 4 o'clock checkin. Restaurants and supermarket under a 10 minute walk, although we did struggle with the hill on the way back. Supermarket great choice and taxis were cheap. We would definitely stay at Villa Gitanilla again if we were to return to Benalmadina. Thank you Alison and family of 6.

Big birthday celebration!

We stayed here on the 3/6/23 for one week The property was as fantastic as the description the bedrooms are all a good size and the kitchen is very modern and well equipped The outside seating/dining area is brilliant. We had one very rainy day and we had great day eating , drinking and playing cards The pool is lovely a great place for sunbathing and cooling off The villa is in a lovely location but just a warning for anyone who struggles walking ( like my wife ) it is on a steep hill which I knew before going but we made use of Uber to get to places which works fantastically well and then taxi back from the seafront or marina Overall a fantastic holiday and villa !!!

Family Holiday

We were a family of 11, from a 3 year old to grandparents. The Villa was everything we hoped it would be, absolutely perfect and very well maintained. The salt water pool was brilliant and the kids in particular loved it. Emily was extremely helpful and was very quick to react to any requests we had I would definitely recommend this Villa and Emily to anyone interested.

One week with family May 6-13

We were 10 adult’s ranging from 24-54 years old. We stayed for 1 week at La Gitanilla. The space was perfect for us. It was nice to prepare our own meals and eat in a few evenings. Emily was wonderful to work with and answered many, many of my questions very quickly. We really enjoyed using the pool and sitting out back in the evening. Would definitely stay here again.

Fabulous villa

A superb villa, very large well equipped and clean. Perfect for the family holiday we had with a large group of all ages. Even after a small glitch at the start of the stay (not the owners fault by any means) it was dealt with swiftly and professionally. The pool is amazing and air conditioning was great. Would definitely recommend to all.

From start to finish communication was first class. I booked this villa for 9 of us, ages ranging from 20 to 82 years. Everything is made available.

Location is away from the main town so a hire car is recommended otherwise taxis needed . Issues with the electricity tripping and one shower not able to be used , however the agency were very quick to respond and try to sort. Diane and Dean in particular were excellent.

Fabulous

The owners have made every attempt to create a great place to stay and it works very well. It's fabulous. The owners Lise-Lotte and Hans-Kurt were excellent in communication prior to booking and the agents Emily and Di and their team were equally great in ensuring we had everything we needed. The Villa is exactly as described and photographed. It’s very spacious, extremely well equipped and has fabulous outdoor facilities for eating, drinking, and socialising. Inside has been well thought-out to be spacious and homely. Bedrooms are a great size and the kitchen (being the hub) is brilliant. The location is quiet and predominantly residential, classy. Only 10-15mins walk to bars, restaurants, supermarkets and access to beaches. It’s just perfect. Chris Sutton Aug & Sept 2021
