Beautiful villa, great views, peaceful with private pool!
Great area, only 5 mins from main town Vera and 10 mins from the beach via car,close to Mojácar too which has plenty of great places to eat in the local area. Villa has AC, own pool and is in a really peaceful area. Villa had all mod cons - sky, and sky movies, WiFi, washing machine etc.. I will definitely be returning next year

Wonderful home from home
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful villa. The photos do not do it justice. It is so well equipped with everything you need (in abundance) for a totally relaxing, stress free holiday. The location is perfect for exploring the area and the hosts provide useful and informative guides to help you enjoy your stay. Communication is excellent and it was just like staying with friends (except your friends are away!). The pool was perfect with plenty of sun beds and towels provided. Sharon and Carl have thought of everything to ensure guests have a lovely time. I would highly recommend this beautiful villa and look forward to staying again in the future.

Lovely villa and owners
Carl and Sharon's villa is comfortable and very well equipped for a stay, whether you plan to lounge by the pool or hit the beach. The villa is 10 mins drive to the nearest supermarket and 15 moms to the nearest beach, both on quiet roads. Access to a car is essential. The garden gets the sun from sunrise to sunset and there are terraces that allow you to enjoy the sun or the shade, depending on the time of day. Sharon was great and provided lot of great information before we arrived and kept in touch before during and on our return from our stay. Chris and Pete, the neighbour and the pool guy were also friendly and knowledgeable about the local area. Recommended for couples and small families. We would definitely look to book again in future.

Villa perfecta para descansar
La casa tiene todo lo que se necesita, incluso más. Los dueños fueron muy amables dejando incluso cosas para desayunar. Tiene todo lo que debe tener una casa que está en uso por una familia, no la típica que es solo para alquilar con los 4 típicos tenedores contados. Esta súper equipada con todo tipo de electrodomésticos. Él área es muy tranquila y la piscina es espectacular. Lo único negativo era la televisión que iba a través de una aplicación que no funcionaba muy bien. Pero el dueño ya está al corriente de ello y va a poner mejor wifi y antena de tv. Es 100% recomendable para cualquier tipo de viaje.

Antes de nada, agredecer a Carl y a Sharon su atención y su amabilidad. La casa está fantástica. Comodísima, limpia y muy bien cuidada y equipada. La zona de piscina es su punto fuerte. Una piscina grande, con zona de comedor muy agradable y espaciosa. Nosotros hemos disfrutado muchísimo. Totalmente recomendable.

Superbe
Nous avons passé de très bonnes vacances dans cette jolie maison, tout était conforme à l'annonce. Les indications données étaient très claires, nous avons trouvé nos marques rapidement. Nous sommes arrivés en soirée, nous avons apprécié les cadeaux de bienvenue et les choses à grignoter dans le frigo :) La maison est au calme, idéal pour le repos, mais également proche des plages, magasins, etc.. (15 minutes en voiture) La piscine est magnifique, et très bien entretenue. Les seuls bémols pour nous ont été l'absence de lit 2 places et certains équipements un peu vieillots (la cafetière par exemple). La climatisation dans la pièce principale serait un plus. En dehors de ces détails, tout était parfait, nous y reviendrons avec plaisir !

Desastrosa
Para llegar a la casa hay que pasar por medio kilómetro que no está asfaltado lleno de piedras y baches. Cuando llegamos la persona que nos entregó las llaves recogió delante nuestra un cenicero lleno de colillas. La casa estaba limpia pero el patio estaba lleno de excrementos de pájaros. Entiendo que con el paso de los días se ensucie pero creo que es lo mínimo pedir encontrar la casa limpia. Cuando nos entregaron las llaves la señora que nos abrió se dio cuenta que la puerta del garaje estaba rota. Dijo que avisaria a su marido para que la arreglarse esa misma tarde pero no se paso. Por la tarde me puse en contacto con la propietaria para decirla que un perro vagabundo se había colado dentro de casa puesto que la puerta de la calle que daba al jardín no se podía cerrar. La comente que me daba miedo por que tenía una niña de 2y otra de 4 años. Dormimos con la puerta abierta y el perro se colo destrozando los manguitos de las niñas. Se lo comente a Sharon el último día por correo y no me contesto. Además también tuvimos problemas con la luz que saltaba cada dos por tres sin tener casi nada funcionando. Además los armarios de la casa estaban llenos de cosas de los propietarios tiradas sin casi espacio para colocar. Por si todo esto fuese poco no se puede hacer uso del porche por que esta lleno de moscas y avispas. Dentro de la casa aparecieron cucarachas. No volveremos

Très bon séjour
La maison est bien équipée, conforme aux photos et très agréable à vivre. La literie est de très bonne qualité. Le linge de maison fourni est en quantité largement suffisante. La situation permet de bien sillonner la région et de découvrir de beaux endroits. La voiture est néanmoins indispensable, mais chaque soir, on rentre dans un endroit calme et tranquille (perturbé uniquement par les mouches!!!). Une attention très appréciable de Carl et Sharon à l'arrivée: un frigo garni pour un premier repas et un petit déjeuner! Merci. Beaucoup de documentations laissées par Sharon pour visiter les environs et un itinéraire très détaillé pour accéder à la propriété. Au final, de superbes vacances.

A little piece of Heaven.
Take a minute to imagine sitting in the sunshine with a glass of wine in your hand with the only sounds being the birds tweeting and the gentle lapping of the swimming pool water. That is exactly what spending time at this wonderful villa is like. It's in such a tranquil location and very private and peaceful. You do need a car but Vera and supermarkets are only a 5 minute drive away and the beach with some great restaurants is only 10 minutes away. It's an easy 50 minute drive from Almeria airport and I love the area for its distinct lack of traffic. The villa is decorated to a very high standard and fully equipped with everything you could wish for. It truly is a home from home. Wi-fi, TV if needed, Air con, Fully fitted kitchen with microwave, dishwasher and washing machine. Outside the pool area is spacious with sun loungers and plenty of seating. It has some lovely features and plants and the lighting looked pretty on an evening. Sharon and Carl have thought of everything and the welcome hamper in the fridge including a bottle of Cava on arrival was thoughtful, kind and much appreciated. They are really helpful and give you plenty of advice and info on the area before you arrive . Although the Villa is in a quiet location you are not too alone. Sharon and Carl have some wonderful neighbours in Pat & Chris and Ian & Rhonda who are on hand down the road if you need any advice and are very knowledgeable on the area. It is the perfect place to relax and unwind and I will definitely be looking to visit again in the future.

Lovely villa for a quiet relaxing get away
We enjoyed a wonderful stay at the villa it is well equipped, clean and comfortable. It is set in a rural peaceful location, a car is a must. Sharon and Carl were very helpful prior to our arrival giving us a lot of information about the villa the surrounding area and places to eat. On arrival we also had a welcome pack a very thoughtful touch. The outside area was spacious with a fabulous patio and pool. The town of Vera is only 5 minutes drive away and the Lidl supermarket also 5 minutes away. The Vera Playa beach is a 10 minute drive,there are also several good beaches close by. We would definitely be returning to this lovely villa.

Juste parfait
Nous sommes restés 11 jours 10 nuits dans cette merveilleuse maison. Tout était parfait du début à la fin. A notre arrivée, la maison est très très propre, le frigo est rempli de provisions et nous sommes accueillis par les amis des propriétaires. Rhona et Pat.. Que de gentilles personnes ! Accueil chaleureux, ces personnes sont on ne peut plus serviables. Bref, le contact aussi avec les propriétaires se fait régulièrement. Ils s'inquiètent de savoir si nous ne manquons de rien. Très gentilles personnes également. La maison est très bien placée, au calme et en même temps à proximité de tout (plages, commerces, endroits touristiques...). Très belle maison avec piscine privée, à l'abri de tout regard, au calme et avec TOUT ce que nous avions besoin. Rien à dire. Si ce n'est que nous sommes comblés par notre choix et que nous conseillons vivement cette location. Encore merci a Sharon et Carl ainsi qu'à leurs amis. En espérant revenir un de ces jours !! Mes enfants étaient aux anges !!!

A fantastic house
A beautiful house very well equipped, tastefully furnished with a very well decorated garden and a large beautiful swimming pool. There is everything (kitchenware, dishes, deckchair, towels and bath, mosquito nets ...) The photos are very faithful Car essential, very beautiful area, very pleasant neighborhood and ready to render service. Only small flaw that is not related to Carl and Sharon, flies and wasps. An ideal place to rest but also golf, walking and enjoy the beautiful beaches nearby Village 5 minutes by car with shops (mercadona, LIDL ...) Une magnifique maison très bien équipée, aménagée avec goût avec un jardin très bien décoré et une grande piscine magnifique. Il y a tout (nécessaire de cuisine, vaisselles, transat, serviettes de toilette et de bain, moustiquaires...) Les photos sont très fidèles Voiture indispensable, très belle région, voisinage très agréable et prêt à rendre service. Seul petit défaut qui n'est pas lié à Carl et à Sharon, les mouches et les guèpes. Un lieu idéal pour se reposer mais aussi le golf, la marche et profiter des très belles plages à proximité Village à 5 minutes en voiture avec magasins (mercadona, LIDL...)

Great holiday, dissapointing post holiday charges
We enjoyed a wonderful holiday in this relaxing property. It is located in quite a remote area so a car is a must. It is only a short drive to Vera where all amenities can be found. The nearest beach is approximately a ten minute drive away - parking is free. The pool at the villa is a reasonable size for kids / family to play in. Air conditioning in the bedrooms is very effective. There isn't an outside BBQ so cooking outside requires rigging up a hot plate with extension lead. It works but doesn't have the same effect as a BBQ. Cooking and eating outside during the day was a challenge because of the flies: need one hand to eat and one hand to fend off the flies. Still worth the effort though. The owners were very helpful prior to our arrival giving us a lot of information as we requested. On arrival we also had a welcome pack of 'fizz' and other essentials - a very thoughtful touch. The villa was very clean. Why only 3 stars? On return from our holiday our returned deposit was unexpectedly reduced. This was due to the pool requiring an extra clean during our stay (at our request). We were not warned at the time there would be this additional cost. The pool got very dirty and murky quickly. The owner said this was due to sand. We think it was due to dirt being blown in by the wind (it can be quite windy at times). Whatever the cause, it seemed a little churlish to be billed for the clean especially without being told this would be the case. A stand up fan broke whilst we were there. It just collapsed (it was clearly not in very good order when we arrived - very wobbly and noisy) - the owner indirectly suggested we were at fault as in an email they stated "We haven't charged you for the broken fan". As a property that is being rented out there were other minor things that should be addressed such as a lot of solar lights in the garden not working, cement work around the pool is cracking, TV instructions very complicated (need writing more logically). These are only minor issues and did not detract from our great holiday. If it hadn't of been for the unexpected additional charge for the pool cleaning and the comment regarding the fan, we would have given a 4 star rating (4.5 stars would have been more accurate as the additional issues were only very minor). In summary, we would recommend the property but with the caution of being wary of potential unexpected post holiday costs!

Perfect Spanish getaway
If you are looking for a lovely peaceful destination this villa is for you! We have had several holidays here, as a couple and with family and friends,and about to rebook for 2016. The impressive villa is beautifully maintained inside and out and the photos are really true to life ,everything including the pool is clean and fresh, beds comfy and I have never hired a villa with such a well stocked kitchen!! As previous reviewer said owner explained it was in a rural position and we would need to have a car,but that is a big part of the appeal for us. The local town of Vera had everything we needed and we then ventured into other local resorts and found lots of places to eat and drink. Mojacar Playa and the Old Town are well worth visiting and are easy to get to. The Desert Springs Golf Club is minutes away,my husband says it is a super course,i don't play but can recommend the restaurant for meals. Can't wait till my next visit now, the thought of sitting on the balcony with a glass of rosé will help me get through the winter!!

Fantastic villa for that quiet relaxing get away
Villaricos has been kitted out by Sharon & Carl to be the perfect home from home accommodation. As it is fully equipped for all of our holiday needs, they ensured that our stay was wonderfully relaxing. Villaricos is in a quiet residential area, without being overlooked, making it feel that we were away from everyone. We had such a great time that we are already planning our return.
