Villas VR Beachwalk Avellanas, hotel in Playa Avellana

Bed was amazing! Place is newish so in good condition. As the pools are shared there was a family atmosphere which was nice. Best of all dogs are allowed ( I didn’t take mine)! Big shout out to Nana although not sure who she belonged to but she liked belly rubs and treats! The girls who cleaned the rooms and ran the place were smiley (no English) and very hard workers.

    We loved the host. They sent us they location of the property as it is a little bit difficult to find in a virtual map. However their indications were key to reach there. Once there they were very kind and they gave us amazing advice on what to visit on the area and on the next stops of our trip. The house had everything we needed, a big bathroom, a kitchen with gas cooker, fridge and plenty of fans to be able to deal with the heat. There is a swimming pool as well at the back of the property. Highly recommendable.

    Everything is good for our stay, except we only have cold water for the shower. The hot water was broken when we stayed there. The room is very clean, and kitchen has everything we need. Several fans will be enough at night as it is not hot. Host is very friendly and helpful, Sylvia is a very good host, and will do everything she can to make our stay comfortable. Thanks for everything.

    Very idyllic accommodation and very nice, helpful hosts. We had our own small bungalow, which met our expectations. It is a bit remote, but you are in the middle of nature and have peace and quiet there.
