Villa Canto

Amazing stay! The house is large, well-kept and comfortable. We were there as a group of three couples all with kids of varying ages from 4 to 18, and all fit very comfortably, with plenty of private space for ourselves. There's loads of shared space as well, both inside and in the big garden - large dining tables both inside and out, several sofas in the large living room and so on. A big TV and a ton of DVDs, though we never used those. WiFi of course! The kitchen is very well appointed with stove, oven, several fridges (one in the kitchen, two outside), washing machine, dishwasher, coffee machine, kettle and plenty of pans, crockery, cutlery etc (almost better equipped than our kitchen at home, honestly - we cooked for ourselves every day and had everything we needed). Outside there's a grill which was super for al fresco dining. The pool is great, large and warm. Lots of sun loungers and so on. Plenty of parking space for our three rental cars in the driveway. There's a drawer full of games, incidentally, though we had our own so I don't know if they're all complete. Shelves of books too, including plenty in English. Patrick, the host, is amazing - a true gentleman, very welcoming and friendly. He lived in the UK for a couple of decades and speaks English perfectly, which is a great help if you don't speak Spanish, and he's ever so ready to give great advice and is full of anecdotes. He even took a few of us out on his yacht, which was an incredible experience - not a privilege we expected at all! You'll want a car here; it's conveniently located for access to all the southern parts of the island (10 mins drive to the volcanoes in the national park, for example) but it's a pretty bare region and there's not much within a short walking distance.

Everything was so good that it feels churlish to complain, but a couple of the older members of our group found the beds left us rather achy.

We love this phenomenal villa. The location was perfect for us, super beautiful area, a bit outside the resorts, but peace and quiet. Everything within reach, shops are a few minutes drive away. A car is necessary to live there. The villa had everything we needed: lots of space, plenty of rooms and plenty of space for family and friends to occupy. The best part was the dining room with a barbecue outside. We spent most of our time there. The view from the terrace of the ocean and mountains was breathtaking! The kitchen was perfectly equipped, you could even bake a cake there! The heated swimming pool is a unique attraction, it is much bigger and nicer than in the pictures! The villa had a wonderful and well-kept garden, beautiful flowers and palm trees. The host Patrick was very helpful and nice, communication was easy via WhatsApp. Thanks again to Patrick for this stay.

We've stayed at this villa before so we knew what to expect. We love the villa and location. Patrick the host is fantastic. I can't wait to book again for next year.

The pool is amazing.

Could have been cleaner.

Absolutely loved this villa. The location was perfect for us as we like to be slightly out of the resorts for the peace and quiet but within easy reach of everywhere. Only 2 of us so it was way bigger than what we really needed but we loved it. Villa had everything we needed. I'm a big swimming pool fan and this pool certainly didn't disappoint, it's huge compared to others we've had in the past. I'm already desperate to book again for next year, just waiting for the go ahead from the other half. Patrick the owner is fantastic, quite happily left us to it unless we needed him. 10/10 from us. Patrick you'll be hearing from us soon to re-book, hopefully 3 weeks next time.

There wasn't anything we didn't like.

Perfect size and patrick was fantastic

Lovely quiet location, with plenty of space in the villa. Lots to keep family and friends occupied and loving eating area outside. Host was very helpful and kind.

Kitchen was small for a large group but it was fine for our group.
