September 2021The house is large and offers a lot of open space outdoors. The equipment is good. A few sunbeds would have been really good. The pool is a dream. However, as a group, we have had the experience that the house was unfortunately still very dirty at check-in and no towels etc. were missing. Nevertheless, Raul reacted quickly and sent new "cleaning team" over. The towels were also brought to us a day later. The location of the house is very nice. Valencia City can be reached within 20 minutes. If Raul even more on the details or Would pay attention to cleanliness, then we would be happy to recommend the house.

September 2021Really lovely week stay at Raul's place. Villa has everything you need to be comfortable. Raul was a great host, very easy to get hold of during our stay and help out with anything we needed (both inside and outside the villa) The villa itself is lovely with a big pool. Metro is about 15 min walk away which is 30 mins into Valencia City Centre. However, I would recommended renting a car when its hot! :)

August 2021The house is situated in a very quiet area and has a nice environment outside. The garden is also maintained very well. The pool is really really superb! Very big and deep and has a very nice lay-out.
The host is very attentive and follows up on issues quickly!
But I would not recommend the house for larger groups.
We were 6 persons and experienced quite some issues with the electricity.
A normal use (pool pumps, cooking, using ventilators to cool the sleeping rooms) already resulted in electrical shutdowns.
The host organised an electrician to review the installation.
The specialist checked the fuses and warned for irregularities that could cause dangerous situations.
The host mentioned it was going to be solved after we left the house.
Almost two days without electricity caused several other issues: no fridge anymore, the pool sanitation system off leading to a green pool, no cooling leading to sleepless nights.
The host compensated with one day fee cancellation, what was considerate, but obviously a structural solution would be preferable.
I would recommend the host to invest in an upgrade of the electrical capacity and add a structural airconditioning system in the house.
The increase in electrical capacity is a real necessity for a larger group or family to stay.
Airconditioning will seriously increase the comfort situation of the house itself.
The few ventilators are not useful enough for the house and too noisy during the night.

July 2021WORST DECISION TO BOOK THIS HOUSE! Whatever you do, DON’T book this House.
I really can not recommend Raul’s house. First he pretended to be very friendly but then he kicked us out of the house all of the sudden in the middle of our stay. We just got informed at 8.30 in the morning that we have to leave the house by 11 am. When we wanted to talk to him about it he didn’t reply at all. So we had to search for another house or we would have sat on the street.
The house in general is okay but a lot of things are broken, dirty or not usable. The water of the pool is dirty and not very clean, the barbecue is not usable as it is full of maggots, the table inside the house is broken and you can not really use the outside table in the evening as you are not allowed to make any noise. The neighbor is extremely sensitive and will call the police if you just talk a bit louder. I would never ever book this house again!
