Being able to walk to a great family beach (Arrieta) with spanish holidaymakers mainly. Our teenagers felt free to go swimming, body boarding & surfing. After a day of swimming or discovering the island it felt good to come back to the Eco Cabin with its pergola and small garden with fruit trees (fig, orange, mango, apple). (more)Sophie Nelson

Lovely apartment with amazing views. (more)Tiffany Easton

It is a lovely setting, just bird noise, nothing else. Great to see the almond trees still in blossom, and we overdosed on oranges and Raf tomatoes (if you see strange coloured green / blackish tomatoes just buy them!). John's walks are excellent and he even put together some on-road cycling routes on a Garmin for us, as I had told him my husband is a keen cyclist. (more)Julia Sherwen

The situation of the accommodation and the friendliness of the hosts. (more)Jenny Dunlop

The most memorable was the sound of the Scops Owl at night. Finding a local natural water source and enjoying the pleasure of taking an impromptu swim! A wonderful chance to experience authentic Spain. (more)Helen Jenkins

Lovely old medieval town, great local food and Villa Nuba is close to town but feels like it is in the country. Villa is well equipped with all necessities including milk & food for a light supper and breakfast when you first arrive. (more)Janet Hawker

Unbelievable - a small paradise. We are very impressed that the owner has managed to combine luxury accommodation with genuine eco living. (more)Paul Bish

I am delighted to highly recommend Villa Nuba. It really was an amazing holiday. But be prepared....leaving it will break your heart! (more)Heather Reynolds

Memorable parts? The spectacular mountain walks starting right from the doorstep following John's excellent guides. Also, driving to Nijar talking the scenic (hair raising) route through the mountains, memorable indeed. Listening to the birds in the morning, watching the stars at night Tips? Even if using it as a base for touring, don't miss out on spending some time enjoying the peace and tranquility at the cottage. Make sure you have and read the directions to get to the house... (more)Peter Milligan

We have lots of lovely memories so it is difficult to single any one thing out. But as we have to choose we would say the beautiful views gardens pool and the charming cottages which provide a wonderful environment in which to relax and also the great welcome and inobtrusive support of the family who built, own and run the estate. (more)Katie Wheatley

Our stay was a unique & happy experience, unlike any previous holiday. While it can be a challenge to get there, the effort is repaid abundantly. It’s an eco-chic vacation in a cottage where everything can be taken care of, according to one’s wishes. One returns refreshed in mind & body. (more)Bryan Parker

Birds, bats, bees, lizards, pine martens, countless types of flowers and olive, eucalyptus and cypress trees blend in with the traditional style houses. We loved the walks around the forest... I could have spent the entire 10 days happily without leaving the estate at all. (more)Chris Kearney

The most memorable part was watching my daughter see the stars for the first time! Zero light pollution! Also, I was so surprised by how much there was to do on the island. Nice to wake up each day and know it was going to be sunny and dry! (more)Angellique Sunter

We really enjoyed the boat trip to Isle Graciosa – the operator organised it. We went on a RIB speed boat to get there, then went snorkelling, walking through the town and a beautiful lunch. (more)Michelle Christensen

Absolutely lovely. It is probably a huge cliche but seeing the children laughing and playing by themselves and with new friends meant I was more relaxed - it all just ticked over perfectly and resulted in a great holiday. (more)Kate Macnab

We enjoyed relaxing, reading, swimming and sitting by the pool. Our kids were happy hence so were we! (more)Deborah Sigsgaard
