About this property

SUPERB FAMILY VILLA, OVERLOOKING THE SEA WITH PRIVATE HEATED (OPTIONAL) POOL

Favourable rates for April and May 2025. Please note we will occasionally negotiate, if it is in the interests of both parties.
Secluded family villa located in the sought after area of Coveta Fuma near to El Campello. This perfect family villa offers spacious, light and airy accommodation on one level, with spectacular sea views to the east, south and south-west, and a private swimming pool, which has the option of being heated (see rules and policies/house rules/custom rules). Note that heating the pool can take several days depending on the water starting temperature, the air temperature, if there’s a breeze, the hours of sunshine and whether or not the pool cover/thermal blanket is in place, with the latter being the only variable that we have control over, and so it is in your interest to give us as much notice as possible.

We will always do our best to accommodate your arrival and departure requirements, whether that be an earlier or later than 4pm check-in, or an earlier or later than 10am check-out. Note that very late arrivals after 9pm can be accommodated for a late check-in fee of 100 euros, payable on arrival.

Fibre broadband / hi speed internet. Smart TV with access to Netflix, Disney, Amazon Prime, etc.

The villa has awnings for those who prefer the shade, and many cool areas of the garden in which to sit. It also benefits from hot/cold air conditioning, a large wood burner in the lounge, and has additional heaters for the cooler months. Available on request is a travel cot, Chess set and playing cards.

Being located only a 20/25 minute drive from Alicante airport, the location could not be more perfect, and we are pleased to offer a basic welcome pack for your convenience on arrival.

Note that reviews on our villa are logged by the hosting website depending on which language / platform the reviewing guests book and hence submit their review. We respectfully queried this with the hosting website as in our opinion it would be better to show the most recent reviews first, to which they responded to as follows "Reviews that are submitted in the language for the site will appear at the top of the reviews section on a listing. Any reviews submitted in a foreign language via one of our international sites will appear towards the bottom of the reviews section. We display reviews in this order to give travellers access to reviews in the language they are most likely to speak first.".... and so to see the most recent reviews you may have to skip to the end of 6 pages of reviews to see them. Best wishes, David.

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!

Great 10 days spent at superb family villa
My self and my family had a great holiday at this villa. The house is 10 minutes walk from the tram that took us to El Campello (for beach or shopping) and on into Alicante (for city buzz/harbour/beach) and even out to Benidorm (we were curious!!), so everything is within easy reach. The villa was also only 10 minutes walk from a plaza with numerous nice(ish) restaurants and watering holes. The house was very comfortable, with air conditioning allowing us to sleep in the heat, and the pool was also great to help us cool down. All in all, we had a great holiday, and would love to go back some day.

El Campello getaway
First impression was very good, nice clean property with plenty of room and lovely pool and garden with lovely flowers. It was very warm during our stay and the pool was used often. The property manager gave our party some very useful information concerning food orders. The nearest tram stops were just over 5 minutes walk from the villa and as we did not have a car hire it was used regularly. I have to say that the villa was very nice and well equipped and our party had a very enjoyable time there.

Another lovely stay
We have arrived home from another great stay at Villa Carlanna. Very clean, well equipped villa. We love the area as it is perfect for our family holiday- offers some restaurants in close proximity, convenience shop and easy access to mainline transport for longer excursions, if no car. Candy & Bonnie very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable at check in/out and throughout stay. No doubt will be back again!

Amazing Villa!
Just home from such a wonderful stay. There were 5 adults and a three year old in our group. Lovely welcome pack awaited us which was a great gesture Candy was a fabulous host and couldn’t do enough for us. We were able to WhatsApp her throughout our stay for questions or queries or even help with taxis. There is online supermarket app ( Candy will send you the link) or if you’d rather walk, a shopping trolly is available and it’s 20-15 minutes to nearest supermarket which has most things, including fresh bread and pastries but is bit limited on fruit. Supermarket next to the tram stop, which takes you into Alicante, Benidorm, El Campello all very cheap and range from 15-40 minutes on tram. Also within same walking range is village square with nice bars a various restaurants. Such a quiet location with incredible sea views. Everything we needed to cook, drink, chill was available. All towels were included as well as pool towels. Bring mosquito spra as mosquitos were around. There are lovely little bays within 10 -15 minute walks although not sandy. And water sports nearby that we would have loved to try if we had more time? Being able to wash your clothes was a positive. The lockable pool gate was amazing for the three year old. We felt so safe and secure in the villa. The air conditioning in the bedrooms was perfect and enabled you to sleep soundly. Thankyou to David and Candy, your villa is wonderful and we will I’m sure be seeing you again. 😊

Beautiful Coastal Villa
We had an amazing and relaxing time at the Vila! The views from the balconies were stunning, we loved eating out there and chilling by the ( very warm )private pool! Communication with David was great from the outset and then latterly Candy. Candy kindly organised our airport transfers with a local taxi firm who were very reasonably priced. She also gave us info on things to do and see and of the Mercadonba App where you can order your groceries to be delivered which was a god send! We spent a lot of our time at a lovely clean local beach 10 minutes walk away. Would highly recommend staying here and we hope to come back soon!

Excellent second visit
This was our second stay in this lovely villa. Very spacious and well equipped with everything you need. Made good use of the pool as the weather was very hot. Very quiet and peaceful even though there are neighbours nearby. Easy access to bars,restaurants and a small but very well stocked supermarket. Short walk to the tram if you want to travel further afield. Thanks to Candy for making us feel so welcome and recommendations of places to visit.

Terrific stay
From the exceptional hospitality of both David and Candy to David’s delightful, comfortable, well equipped and spotlessly clean villa, our stay was perfect. The views are stunning and the location ideal. The small village of Coveta Fuma has everything required (including a great beach) and the tram means car hire is not necessarily required. Without doubt, the best villa of the many we have rented!

Perfect Villa Holiday
We’ve just returned from a gorgeous week away in this lovely villa. We were a family of 6 & it was just perfect with all the amenities you’ll need. The Villa has a lovey veranda with beautiful sea views & gorgeous sunrises & sunsets. The veranda has comfy seating overlooking the pool which we paid extra to heat. The pool was large enough for kids and adults to play in with plenty of loungers & umbrellas. The Villa also has plenty of other seating areas to spread out if you want a bit of peace & quiet. We particularly liked the one area out front. The Villa was located in a quiet neighbourhood a 10 min walk to a small supermarket which did lovely warm bread & pastries a couple of bars restaurants & a small beach, although some roads are hilly. The tram stop of Coveta Fuma near the supermarket is so cheap to travel on (€9 for 6) although sometimes it’s standing room only. We used the tram to travel to the beach at El Campello, Alicante & Benidorm. Candy was the perfect host offering that personal touch contacting us before the holiday to arrange taxi transfers to & from the airport & despite the very late hour met us at the Villa to show us around. Candy also send us details of a large supermarket if we wanted to order online, plus during the holiday sent us plenty of ideas & places to visit. And thank you to Bonnie who oversaw our departure. Thank you to David for letting us stay in this lovely villa & Candy for going above and beyond in making this just the perfect holiday

Stunning Villa
We have just returned from a fabulous week at Villa Carlanna. The Villa was perfect for our family, it had everything you may need (even a wheelie trolly for taking heavy items home from the shop!). Air conditioning in the bedrooms was a delight at bedtime. The Villa was within walking distance of a few bars and restaurants that also has a children’s playground within view of the bars, this was great for our children (aged 2, 7, 9 and 10). We found no need to hire a car, we used the tram, which was within walking distance of the Villa, for days out in El Campello and Benidorm, it was very efficient. David was super quick at replying to any questions I had and Candy was very welcoming, she checked us in and out very quickly. We are missing the beautiful sea views already and can not wait to return. Thank you David and Candy.

July Holiday
We stayed for two weeks at the beginning July. On arrival we were met by Bonnie and shown around. It was extremely hot during our stay so the air conditioning in the bedrooms was much needed. The pool is a real gem with a lovely temperature and private. There are other villas very close by, but they don’t interfere with your views out to sea. Issues raised during our stay were quickly sorted out by Candy and Bonnie. It should be noted that whilst there are local bars not far away the walk to them is down/up quite a steep hill. The pool area would benefit from a second umbrella although there are other sheltered areas around the Villa.

I highly recommend!
A lovely villa with an absolutely incredible view directly to the sea! We spent a relaxing holiday by the pool barbecuing and admiring the view. The villa was well equipped and there was everything we needed and there was plenty of room for six people, although we spent a lot of our time outside sitting, laughing and playing. Alicante and Benidorm were easily accessible from the tram stop (Amerador), which was about a ten minutes’ walk away from the villa, and we visited both places during our one-week holiday. There was also a small grocery store (Supermercado Udaco) and a few restaurants nearby. We visited the grocery store every day to replenish our food stock and on the last night we ate at a nearby restaurant (Restaurant Cala Blanc) - the food was good and affordable! All in all, a wonderful holiday in a wonderful milieu!

Lovely quiet break
The property was clean and well equipped. Lovely views and the pool a good size. We didn't hire a car as we had read about the tram stop being nearby. It's a ten min walk, although hilly, an easy walk. We found the tram, cheap, clean, cool and easy to use. We went as far as Benidorm (Aqualandia) and El Campello in the other direction. We explored different beaches along the coast, rock shoes are a good idea for the more local coves. Candy was a great source of information and very helpful, she organised our transfer from the airport to our villa and back again. All in all a great holiday.

About the host

Hosted by David McAlister

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

The villa is very well situated, near to a small, but well stocked supermarket, the coastal tram line(so we don't always need to hire a car when we come out), the newly completed children’s play area, adjacent to the bars and restaurants, so they are always in sight, safely playing while we enjoy pre dinner drinks and the area is only serviced by minor, residential roads, so no traffic to worry about. Also, Coveta now has its own gym, for those that wish to keep up their fitness levels while away. Also, the beach tavernas found at the main, natural cove, do fantastic paellas and fresh, locally caught fish, so we really have found our Shangrila!

What makes this property unique

We chose to buy this holiday villa mainly because the accommodation was ideal for our expanding family, the pool is fenced and safe and being heated means we can enjoy the villa all year round(when not being enjoyed by our villa guests, of course) and whenever things get tough in UK, we can always visualize ourselves sitting on the verandah, with a glass of wine, watching the sunset, with not a care in the world. The villa has been registered with the Spanish Tourist Board.
