Second time at this villa and another relaxing and amazing family holiday. I’ve recommended here to friends, it’s lovely. 1 hour from ALC. You can definitely book this villa with confidence. The Mullen family - Scotland.

Our stay at 79 Lirios was great. Firstly, don't panic - it is there. Just because you can't see it on google streetview (it only goes as far as the adjacent road), the villa does exist. The location is excellent. Whilst there are lots of other villas around there - 79 Lirios itself is not overlooked. It is up a mountain road to get there, for which the views are amazing, but once you get up there on the very well laid out roads (everywhere is a proper road network so no worries about driving up/down to the villa as there's plenty of room) you'll soon get your bearings.

Communication with the villa owner Ian was easy - he replied quickly through the Clickstay app to any questions prior to arrival, then on arrival we were met by the housekeepers, Andy & Jacqui (they have their own villa not too far away, which is good to know). They showed us around the villa, gave us some useful tips and then left us to it, so villa completely to ourselves.

Parking is easy, there is a (steep-ish) drive to get a couple of cars on if you need to. In the villa itself, everything that you need is there - pretty much as described in the listing. The only difference we noticed was they layout appears different to how we imagined it from the pictures - the balcony with the awning and seating is actually at the front of the property looking towards the sea (which you can see from certain angles), not at the rear as we envisaged it. The road it looks towards is very quiet, a good 15-20 metres away from the villa and obscured by the olive trees, so no worries about the odd person who walks/drives past gawping at you. Myself and the wife had coffee and croissants out there every morning under the awning.

The villa itself was perfect for us, 2 adults and 2 young kids (9 & 13). We had a double bedroom with secure doors that open out towards the balcony/pool area and had en-suite bathroom with a good shower. Kids room only a short distance away with x2 single beds and a secure but open-able window - however you won't need to open any windows as there is aircon in all rooms which is very much needed in the height of summer. There is also a bathroom with shower next to the kids room. Kitchen facilities ideal for any family, as were the laundry facilities (a separate room) and entertainment (smart tv with apps and good wifi).

On to the pool - which was perfect and was the main focus of our holiday. Pool is just a few metres away from the villa, so you can hear/see everything that is going on if you're in the villa, but far enough away not to be disturbed by it if you want to cool down away from the pool. There are sunbeds around the pool as well as an 8-place dining table. A lovely big parasol for shade and the pool itself is perfect size, although just to be aware, it goes from 1 metre at the shallow end, to over 2 metres at the deep end and the slope is very acute, which takes you by surprise initially but you soon get used to it. Pool is very clean (also a pool cleaner comes in weekly) and has lighting on a timer for night swimming which the kids loved.

Lots of things to do in the surrounding towns - which the guides in the villa give you lots of details for. We tended to stick to Moraira as we didn't want to venture too far and be driving lots, but there are loads of things not too far away if you're happy to travel that bit further.

Overall a thoroughly lovely relaxing 10 days in 79 Lirios, so thanks Ian, Andy & Jacqui!!

Where to start! We absolutely loved this place. We were met at the property by the lovely Andy & Jacqui who gave us a tour and settled us in, making us feel at home straight away. The Villa was very clean indeed, fresh and spacious. There was everything you’ll need inside for your stay, including very cool air-con. Moving outside past orange & lemon trees, the spacious pool area looks amazing. This was a great, private space to just relax, also really nice to eat outside with great views through the arches. The pool itself is fantastic, very large, around 4ft shallow to 8ft deep. It’s just a lovely quiet and peaceful place to stay. Shops are located within easy reach about 5 mins drive down the hill. There are some lovely places to visit in the surrounding area. Driving time from Alicante Airport was only 1 hour. The drive was very easy too. We hope to return to this villa at some point in the future and have already recommended to friends too. Top marks from us.

Different holiday to what my wife and I are used to, as we had two of our grandchildren with us.
They were in the pool most of the time, but when we did go out, we found the area pleasant and other places easy to get to.
Villa facilities were good, as we had the internet (a must for youngsters), as well as Netflix and Sky.
Overall, a very relaxing and happy holiday. Would recommend this villa, ample room to move around, and the pool a huge success.

Just returned from our stay at this beautiful villa. The owner Ian was so quick and responsive to any questions we had which made the booking process easier. The villa is set in a stunning location but a car is needed. The local beach we didnt get to visit but enjoyed many a day trip to javea and el portet beaches which are soft sand and warm seas. The villa is a great size with comfortable beds and lots of space. Powerful showers hot water and everything was just perfect. The pool is a great size and not overlooked and has plenty of sun on it all day. The property couple that look after the property were also excellent, met us early on arrival and also were more than happy to check out later. Gave us good recommendations on the local area and the villa was very clean when we arrived. We definitely will be going on holiday again to this villa, thanks so much for our stay and hope to return in the near future thanks Emma

I went here with my girlfriend and two friends and we had the most relaxing, fun time. I never usually write reviews of anything - but thought I would as we really had such a perfect holiday. The villa was perfect and a really really resonable price compared to the other places weve stayed in in the area. It was clean, new and set out in such a way that we were spoiled for choice for where to hang out. Its a beautiful place - really private if you want to sunbathe as theres this lovely walled pool area. I see that one of the other comments said there wasnt a welcome pack - but I found lots of helpful easy to read maps and directions to waterfalls on the counter as well as road maps and helpful advice like where to find all types of things. I am going to go back later in the year with my family to celebrate a birthday there. Sitting out on the sofas and looking up at the all the stars is just a magical experience. I would definately recommend this place to a friend - sure is a welcome break from the city! Cant wait to visit again!

I have stayed at the villa twice. It is extremely well equipped and unlike a lot of Spanish villas, everything is very trendy and contemporary. The terrace at the front of the villa has a sofa and armchairs and is a great place to read a book in the sunshine. The arched courtyard with the large pool is a private place to sunbathe.Highly recommended. 5 starCarmen

A MESSAGE FROM THE OWNERSThis review can hardly be called unbiased because we are the owners, however we thought you'd like to hear our views for what they are worth ...The villa is unbelievably peaceful and yet you can be in the middle of abustling resort or beach within 5 minutes.Having an extremely good supermarket, Pepe la Sal on site where you can buy almost evrerything you can in England if that's what you want is useful. There is an excellent fish and meat counter, and an in-store bakery. Next door is cafe/restaurant/bar with a pool where you can eat whilst the children have a swim.We often combine a visit with an overnight stay in Valencia. A city that seems to get better every year. In 2007 the whole marina was redeveloped for the Americas Cup and is well worth a visit day or night for excellent restaurants and bars of all price ranges.If you like windsurfing the Denia centre is worth a visit.

Private Owner From Tonbridge, United Kingdom Member since Jan 2008

Ian Fishwick is the Chairman of a public company listed on the Stock Exchange in the UK. He also sits on the Cabinet Office SME Panel as a small business policy advisor. When I get off the plane, with that sudden blast of heat, I can’t wait to drive past the rugged landscape of small mountains on the way to the stunning turquoise sea. Every time I go to the villa I feel as though the whole world has slowed down and I’m now on Spanish time. There are loads of things to do close by, or you can simply do nothing by your own private pool in an arched courtyard. Enjoy.
