“Exceptional”
“Best vacation”
The host very kindly left groceries to help us start our vacation. This was a very kind gesture. Villa Dara was absolutely stunning both inside and out. Inside the villa there are 4 large bedrooms, there was plenty of family space on both levels of the property and plenty bathrooms. Outside the villa the garden and pool facilities were absolutely amazing and added to the wonder of the property. There was a decking area with sun loungers. The pool was cold but clean. I highly recommend this property. I would certainly return.
The internal door separating the villa with another property. Guests from the other property walked into our villa late one night. This door should have security locks from both sides so guests feel safe & secure.
“Pleasant stay but we probably would not return.”
The apartment is on top of a hill so had great Views. The pool was lovely after we got it heated. It was in a quiet area and we could easily keep ourselves to ourselves. Because we had a car the high location was not a problem for us. If you didn't have a car you could get all you need from the supermarket in one big shop and a taxi home. We enjoy walking so the hill was not an issue. If you do not like walking you will certainly need taxis. Elizabeth, the manager was very helpful and when we did have a problem it was resolved quickly.
I think marketing Villa Dara as 4 bedroom villa is a bit disingenuous. It is actually 2 apartments. The downstairs apartment has 2 bedrooms and bathrooms, lounge , kitchen and a great socializing area with views of the pool. The upstairs apartment has again 2 bedrooms and bathrooms, a great lounge with lovely views but no kitchen. So if wanted to use the lounge upstairs you would need to keep leaving it to access the kitchen facilities which are in the other apartment. There were only 2 of us so we did not use upstairs at all. I would say that the place could use a little update. The furniture is tired. The televisions are not smart TV's which was a bit of a surprise, there is no way of accessing any of your streaming services or casting your own device. So unless you speak fluent Spanish, which I suspect very few guests will, they are of no use. Updating the television in at least the lounge would cost a quarter of one weeks rental. I think this should be done. Lastly and very importantly you will need to factor in an additional 10% to have the pool heated. I don't know what it is like in the hotter months but we visited in November and the pool was so cold it was unusable. If you request to have it heated after you arrive keep in mind that it takes 2 days to get up to temperature. Still cool but pleasant.
“We loved Villa Dara and Gran Canaria!”
Villa Dara exceeded our expectations. The villa is spacious with seamless transitions from indoor to outdoor living with plenty of options for gathering together or for curling up for quiet time. The pool area and views are spectacular. We were met on arrival by Leonard an it was always a pleasure to see him on the days he came to clean the pool. Elizabeth provided a wonderful assortment of essentials - coffee, juice, crackers, cereal as well as some personal care items. This was especially appreciated since we arrived in the evening and this allowed us to wait to go get groceries. The house was immaculate and the interim cleaning was greatly appreciated. The location was perfect for us. We spent 2 weeks at Villa Dara and while it had easy access to the southern beaches and all of those amenities, we could get anywhere on the whole island in less than an hour. Elizabeth could not have been a better host! Any time I reached out to her, she responded quickly, helpfully and was always lovely. We travel extensively and rarely return to the same destinations, however all of our party agreed if we ever return to Gran Canaria we would definitely stay at Villa Dara again.
Really the home was perfect for us. Improved linen and pillow quality would make it a 10+
