Rural mountain Spanish villa
Villa is in a great location if you want to experience rural Spanish life in a mountain setting.
However that comes with a couple of kilometre drive along a hilly country road which is in part unmade. If hiring a car, something to consider.
At times power and water are off line but nothing too drastic.
Property could have been cleaner for our arrival and requires new pool chairs.
Setting is very peaceful and stunning with excellent pool.
The local village is lovely to walk around and has several good restaurants and tapas bars.
The villa is about 30 minutes from the nearest beach and a large range of shops and shopping centre.
We had a lovely stay, pool table and board games on hand.
The villa information regarding who the local contacts are needs updating. Pool maintenance was by Steve and he was very helpful. Many thanks.

Peaceful mountain top getaway
The property itself is located in a very remote location, which makes this a very peaceful place, if the roads to it are a little tight and twisty. The house itself has lots of facilities and the garden is beautiful.

Return visit to this lovely stylish, well equipped Casa
Great place to share a holiday with family or friends. The interior is well designed, modern, clean and cared for. The outside is perfect for chilling by the pool or gathering at the outdoor eating area and Barbeque.
The Goudi influenced garden has matured well and compliments the poolside space.
We spent some of our holiday resting by the pool and enjoying Andelusian produce on the Barbeque and some of our time exploring the beautiful very Spanish area.
Would definitely recommend.

Wonderful week in rural Spain
We had a great week at Casa Estrella. The villa itself is very well equipped and furnished - exactly what you would wish for in a second home in the Southern Spanish sunshine - and it provided a great base to explore the local area. We walked the Rio Chiller, bathed in Lake Bermejales and spent a day at the Alhambra Palace in Granada. We would highly recommend this villa - with a slight caveat for anyone who finds winding mountain roads a challenge, who may not be well suited to this region.

Lovely but a few issues which need addressing
Lovely property although we had some issues which need mentioning.
The beds could do with upgrading. Mattresses were pretty uncomfortable.
There were only 5 sunbeds for 6 people and not the ones shown in the photograph.
A big attraction to this property was the pool lights at night but they didn't work.
Pool guy was great but we didn't see any cleaners for the full two weeks which we found surprising. The last 5 villas we stayed at had a laundry change and clean half way through.
The shower in the second bedroom only ran cold. No hot water for the whole 2 weeks. The others were fine.
The trees around the pool from next door should be trimmed as the slightest bit of wind filled the pool with leaves.
Great location though and Canillas is a beautiful friendly village.

Gorgeous spot
We had a great stay at Casa Estrella. The directions were good and the house easy to find. The road leading to the actual house is a bit rough in places but not a problem. The house is in a fantastic spot with the most beautiful views. The house is very spacious and clean, well supplied and everything worked. The wifi and satellite tv connections were excellent. The pool table was good fun too. The pool and bbq area was lovely. All on one level which was nice. Gorgeous gardens too. Each evening the local goatherd with his goats passed by. Like stepping back in time hearing the goat bells. The local town was very pretty with nice restaurants and friendly people. Although the house is in a quiet location it is within easy reach of supermarket, golf, beach and sailing. The Malaga outdoor water sports centre on Lake Vinuela was very good with very friendly staff. We also spent a great day in Malaga itself which is under an hours drive away. Beautiful city with lovely bars and restaurants. All in all a fantastic holiday in a lovely property.

Beau séjour qui aurait pu être parfait
Nous avons passé deux semaines dans la jolie villa de M.Willis. la villa en elle même est très agréable, bien équipée. Les 3 sdb, le BBQ et le billard ont été très appréciables. La piscine n'est pas grande mais suffisante pour s'amuser. Elle est propre et entretenue.. les transats sont présents en nombre et la table extérieure est grande avec une belle vue. Par contre la villa est loin d'être isolée et nous n'avons pas été a l'abri des chiens des voisins qui ont mangé 2 paires de chaussures. Ni du jeune voisin qui met ma musique techno a toute heure. Ce qui est très pénible quand on bénéficie d'un environnement aussi beau et dégagé sur les montagnes. L'accès n'y est d'ailleurs pas facile et armez vous de patience et d'attention si votre véhicule est bas. Enfin chaque sortie revient à minimum 1 h de route de montagne aller/retour. L'intendance mérite elle une remise à niveau car loger dans une si belle maison avec un sol non fait nous a forcé à donner de la serpillère des notre arrivée. Ajoutons y un lave linge récalcitrant, une bouteille de gaz vide au bout d'une semaine et une tuyauterie capricieuse dans la cuisine : notre contact sur place, malgré sa sympathie a jeté l'éponge au bout de 3 jours. Malgré cela et l'abondance des guêpes qui ont constitué un vrai challenge durant 15 jours nous avons passé un beau moment qui aurait pu être parfait sans ces désagréments.

Aangenaam verblijf
Zeer goed uitgeruste woning.
Gezien de hoogzomer temperaturen waren we vooral blij met de airco!
Prachtig uitzicht maar voor ons toch iets te afgelegen om van daaruit vlot uitstappen te kunnen maken.
Overvloed aan vliegen zeg maar vliegenplaag! Zéér irritant.
Vermoeden dat dit te maken heeft met de boer die 2 huizen verder een erf heeft. Jammer!
