Electricity very high 144 euros and only used washing machine and minimal air con. No meals cooked as we are out. Friends had other villas where they were not charged electricity and used air con frequently

Just stayed at this Villa May 2105. The Villa is really nice. The pool is great and the location is quiet and off the main roads. Its very easy to get to and 10 mins from the airport. Taxi was 15 euros. The Villa is very well kitted out if you are into cooking for yourself. There is a small supermarket just around the corner but the better one is another hundred yards or so beside Lidl. It has all the local foods , fish , breads , wine etc .. and low prices. There is a small centre around the corner with four or five restaurants and a couple of bars. If you are british its great. If you are there for the Spanish experience then avoid. For Spanish experience get a Taxi into Santa Polo to the marina area. Its beautiful and you can relax at the various local bars/restaurants. You can eat for almost nothing at the Tapas or dine very well. We went to Batista restaurant. Its very good fine dining and very reasonable if you need to treat anyone. Otherwise its easy to drift along the Marine picking out anywhere you like. There is a nice selection of local restaurants close to the Villa also but we found it too late. Its very close by , Spanish and looks like a real nice nighttime area to frequent. The Villa is in a perfect place to avail of the amenities if you don't mind the odd Taxi. The Bus stop is right there also to Santa Polo of Alicante centre. 45 mins to Alicante. Regular service every hour. On the downside the Villa it is expensive and the 80 euros cleaning is a rip off if you are clean and tidy. We tries to stay a couple of more days and the price was still at the daily rate even though it was going to be empty.Its the best location in the area having said that. WIFI is good also. The single beds in two of the rooms are a bit crappy but still fine. Hope you find this helpful.
