This house is our favorite vacation rental! Our group of 5 world travelers have flown over 7 million miles combined; we have rented 8 different Homeaway houses in 3 countries and we love to combine local culture, cuisine and wine with our relaxation efforts. When we found this house in Altea, it was perfect and the primary reason we scheduled this vacation.

Prior to our trip, Alexander was fast to respond to all our questions. Upon arrival, the onsite manager, Heidimarie, was available at all times even though there were no issues, so we only saw her upon check-in and checkout! The pictures in the Homeaway posting are EXACTLY what the house is like in person. It has 3 different dining areas (2 inside and 1 outside overlooking the pool). The living room is comfortable for groups with a large, high definition TV. There is an upper deck that has fantastic views of the valley and the Mediterranean which was great for morning coffee and evenings for wine, conversation and watching the stars. The hammock was located in a quiet lower terrace that was great for afternoon naps, surrounded by orange and lemon trees. And finally, the pool, it was a consistent depth throughout and perfect view of the sea.

The kitchen is smaller than we are used to (enough for 2 people cooking at time) but has all the necessities. It has excellent dishware, knives, and glasses for all occasions. The outdoor grill was of top quality and we used it every night. The master bedroom is upstairs just off the kitchen with a large master bath and shower. There are 3 bedrooms on the lower level. The house has air conditioning throughout and kept the house at a perfect temperature.

Overall, this house, location, and experience will be one we would recommend to our friends and families. Our small group has already discussed our next visit to Altea and are looking forward to coming home to this wonderful house.

What a beautiful villa with a fantastic view! Well designed with a very high standard of finish inside and out. Great attention to detail which was echoed in the service we got through the whole process - from booking to knowing Heidemarie was on hand if we needed any help.

We are a family of three generations meeting for one weeks holiday a year so it is important we get the accomodation right. We would definately stay here again. Perfection!

Wir kehrten nach 2 Jahren wieder in Altea für den Urlaub zurück, dieses Mal mit Kinder und Großeltern. Wie vorhin, war alles wunderbar.

Vielen lieben Dank!

We were a group of 8 family members ranging from age 8 to (almost) 80. We had wonderful communication with the owner during the planning process and with the lovely Heidimarie during our stay. Heidimarie met us just off the highway and escorted us to the villa. It was exactly as shown on the photos and even more! Our family enjoyed the villa and the perfect touches so much that we honestly did not want to leave. We visited Moraira, Old Altea, Calpe and Bennidorm (our least favorite - too busy). We enjoyed lazy days by the pool and under the gorgeous pergola having meals. We truly had a lovely time and hope to be back. If we are ever planning another trip to Spain we will look no further than La Madrugada - why look further when you have found perfection!!! Thank you again for letting us enjoy your gorgeous villa!! The Nemeth and Piccoli families

The listing was accurate and the villa presented the memories we enjoyed. I have close friends who would enjoy this rental immensely.
