City / Country Combo Holiday
This is a charming villa set in a hilly enclave just north of El Campello. We chose NOT to rent a car - so we stayed local (from Alicante to Villajoysa is easy/cheap to do by tram). The tram stop (and local wine/grocery merchant) is an easy 10 minute walk - take a backpack and its easy to do your shopping and be back at the villa. The grounds are nice with lots of vignettes around the villa to either chase the sun or the breeze depending on time of day.
Candy was wonderful to meet us on the first day at the Alicante train station and wait for us to buy a few days grocery on our arrival (Sat) as most markets are closed on Sunday. So you do have to plan ahead a little.
Pool area was great - we were lucky it hadn't gotten too cold yet. Only downside we could think of was the Aircon is only in the sleeping area of the house. This makes it necessary to keep the breeze blowing thru the rest of the house for comfort - and this lets in mosquitos. So bug spray is important.
Great location, away from the "big city" but easy to enjoy get a city/country holiday with the touristy stuff in Alicante and the more local feel of El Campello and Coveta Fuma.
Thanks David and your team!
