CASITA LEON. Tranquil mountaintop 2 bedroom villa, private pool, views.

This comfortable villa is set in a quiet urbanisation on a mountaintop overlooking the Mediterranean. The 180 degree views from the front of the villa are quite stunning - all the rooms benefit from this. To the rear is an enclosed totally private 9x5m swimming pool where one can relax and enjoy the peace and quiet. All rooms have hot/cold air conditioning making the property suitable for year round rental. The villa layout ideally suits two couples rather than children. One bedroom is located down three steps from the lounge, the other is accessed from an external staircase. Quirky but interesting. The lounge, diner and kitchen are open plan. The villa has been refitted with quality furnishings and is fully equipped to make your stay a real pleasure in an unusual and relaxing environment.

Please note: due to the quiet location, external staircase to the double bed bedroom and unfenced pool area this is not suitable for young children.

Michael made the stay fantastic from start to finish. From booking to our arrival and our departure. Nothing was too much trouble. The villa has everything you need and more. The pool was lovely and refreshing after a day in the sun. Would recommend to anyone. We hope to book again for next year.

It would be hard for this review not to descend into a litany of superlatives. The house was amazing. Scrupulously clean, fantastically equipped and Michael as a host was incredibly helpful and accommodating. The peace and tranquillity was truly unforgettable. We will definitely try to return in the future.

Excellent!
Fantastic getaway, v quiet location, everything you would possibly need was provided. Lovely pool, great for a peaceful relaxation. Ideal for two couples but probably not suitable for a family, but this is stated in the description. Michael v. friendly host who kept his distance after initial intro. Only suggestion would be a one-way see-thru screen in the downstairs bedroom when you open the curtains - nearly got caught out dressing/changing when Michael walked past a couple of times, and we didn't want to have to keep the curtains closed.

5* Villa
Brilliant villa in a wonderful location with beautiful views. Amazing secluded garden and pool area which lends itself to a relaxing holiday whilst forgetting the world outside. Wouldn’t be right to not mention Michael whose friendly welcome started us off well and who was on hand if required but totally left us to enjoy our time there.

Baeutiful, tranquil location
Beautiful, tranquil location high in the mountains. The villa was lovely and we felt very at home. We were lucky and enjoyed a few good days even in Feb so were able to use the outside area and pool. I would love to go back in summer to fully take advantage of the facilities. The villa is well stocked and owner is nearby if you need anything.

Lovely villa with lovely views, very clean and very well equipped.
Lovely property, stunning views, car needed as a little off the beaten track, but overall 5 stars. The area is lovely, just be aware though late September quite a few of the local restaurants close early or the close compleaty.

Superb property
The property was clinically clean which impressed us! It was exactly as described with panoramic views over and across the valley right down to the sea. It was an idllyic villa for a tranquil, relaxing holiday. Michael, the owner, was incredibly helpful before we arrived and during our stay. As our flights were ridiculous times he was flexible and acccmodating. We couldn't rate this villa and Michael highly enough.

Incredible views all the way down to the coast from this comfortable apartment
We booked this apartment after reading the previous reviews and were not disappointed. The views are amazing, very peaceful location (make sure you have a car with some reasonable power to get up the mountain and the steep drive!) and clean/comfortable apartment. Fantastic pool area.

Clean, crisp, modern and fantastic view
There are no caveats, its as lovely as it looks and sounds. When I am looking at the photos and description of a possible rental place I'm trying to figure out what's missing in a description, or whether there's disappointment lurking outside the photo's view? Well don't bother; this place is great! The pool is lovely, but we didn't get in it in mid March. The owner's house is off to the side in the photos, what you see in the photos is all yours. The beds feel new and are comfortable, everything is a nice size to spread yourselves out a bit. The upstairs bedroom/bathroom leads out into the gated pool area, it is just separate enough from the living area and other bedroom that two couples can have together space and separate space. I think its a great arrangement. The villa is in a very quiet and attractive residential subdivision up a hillside from the town. You want a car to get round the area, and if you rent a manual you'll need to use the clutch. The instructions to the villa are easy to follow, and even tell you when you should be in first gear (one corner). The road is a proper width for two way traffic, as are all the roads you need to drive on in the area. However there isn't much traffic at all until you hit the coast 16 km away. There is a grocery store in the town at the bottom of the development, another larger one 4 km away in one direction and a large mall 7 km in the other direction. The motorway is by the mall and you can get to Valencia or Alicante in less than an hour for less than 10 Euros toll. There are all the appliances you could reasonably want, they are spotless, and they work. Michael will point you towards some really nice restaurants in the area, lovely atmosphere and food, and they are great value. Ask for directions, the Satnav in our car was easily fooled, Google Maps were better, but Michael knows the local landmarks that make finding things easy. The dogs ( in a couple of the photos) liked to watch us coming and going from a window in the owner's property but were very well behaved and out of the way the whole time. ... and you will never tire of the view.

Fantastic villa - an escape from the real world!
We had a wonderful stay at Michael's Casita which enabled us to relax and recharge. It is located in a wonderful setting in a mountain urbanization with the most amazing views that you can sit and just look at for ages. The inside of the villa is very modern and comfortable with everything you need to be self catering and lovely rain showers in the bathrooms. For shopping, there is a Carrefour at Ondara which is only a 10 minute drive where there is also a nice indoor shopping complex. Aldi is also there and Lidl is about a 20 minute drive. The most surreal but enjoyable thing for us was the silence which was so welcoming and relaxing making you feel totally removed from the world. The back of the villa is a sun trap and there is a lovely patio area with a large pool (we couldn't use it as it was too cold but in the summer it would be fabulous). The owner Michael lives next door and very friendly and welcoming. He is on hand should you need anything and he can give you recommendations for restaurants and days out. We spent our days relaxing and touring the wonderful scenic mountains in a Fiat 500 which just about made it up the steep roads (you might want to consider something more powerful). The area was littered with wonderful orange trees and it was only a 15 minute drive to the coast. We would highly recommend this villa to those who want to get away from it all and experience a slice of real spanish life in beautiful setting.

Beautiful Villa in a tranquil area
We had a lovely week in Benidoleig - the Villa is lovely on the inside as well as the outside and the setting is fabulous and peaceful. We enjoyed sitting outside in the mornings and evenings and spending time by the pool in between - the inside of the property is spacious and comfortable too. Michael is very friendly and welcoming (as are his dogs) and really helpful - the Villa is kept to a very high standard and we very much hope to return
