My son and I had a great stay here - thank you Erica for being helping make our stay a very enjoyable one. The villa was well laid out and spotlessly clean. The beds are firm (a plus), there's a lovely small balcony seating area, and the pool was bigger than I had feared and just shallow enough to be able to stand on tip-toe if you're average height. The kitchen is pretty well equipped if you like cooking, and Lidl is a very short drive away. Within 100m, there are some good restaurants, mainstream bars and an excellent bakery. The only downside is that it's quite noisy, especially if you want to sleep late - you're directly above a carwash and petrol station, you get traffic noise from the main road and the bin men start before dawn. But it's a great base to explore the greener, less touristy northern end of the island, with pretty beaches, historic La Laguna, Mount Teide, a pretty butterfly sanctuary and botanical gardens at Icod, Loro Parque on the doorstep and so on. Overall, highly recommended!
