Vintage Travel offers handpicked villas with private pools in unspoilt locations. Established in 1990, our highly knowledgeable, long-standing team both in the UK and in the destinations that we operate, are always on hand to ensure your stay runs smoothly from start to finish. Each villa is handpicked by us, we visit each and every destination and every villa to provide high quality holiday homes to suit all occasions: from a cottage hideaway for a couple, a two or three bedroom house for a family holiday, to villas large enough for several families wishing to holiday together. With a wide selection of properties covering everything from historic houses in rural areas to modern day contemporary homes close to beaches, there is something for everyone. Staying in a private home is the perfect way to spend a holiday. Villas give the opportunity for complete freedom, privacy, and space in which to relax and unwind- it’s like having a home away from home!

As we walked up its pretty driveway of crazy paved stone and were invited into a neat entrance hall of crisp white walls and light floor tiles, we were immediately struck by the spacious ambience and neat décor of this proudly maintained home. Lining the east-facing walls of both kitchen and living room, a series of patio doors allows light to flood into the comfortably furnished interior and the staircase is overlooked by a tall, eye-catching window. Upstairs on the first floor an attractive principal bedroom enjoys its own en suite facilities and access to a terrace offering views across neighbouring rooftops to the sea. Outside, on the property’s two covered terraces, summer holiday living can be truly enjoyed. Flowing easily from inside to out via patio doors, these are an ideal extension of the living area and whilst the main terrace overlooks the pool and its surrounding lawn the other lies off the kitchen for breakfasts al fresco. Conveniently located behind the pool is a brick-built barbecue for outdoor catering although those wishing to sample some local cuisine will no doubt be delighted to discover the proximity of the bustling resort of Arenal d’en Castell. This is just 950m from the house and is home to a picture-postcard horseshoe bay of soft golden sand and a pleasing range of restaurants and bars with terraces offering views across the water.

The discovery of a smart holiday home within walking distance of beaches and restaurants is always a delight and it was therefore with great pleasure that we accepted an invitation to view San Francisco, a light and inviting home that enjoys a convenient location in the attractive neighbourhood of Coves Noves, just a 20 minute walk from the picturesque sandy bay of Arenal d’en Castell.
