"Had a fantastic family getaway in Villa Camaleon 27th Dec 2024-1st Jan 2025. The villa is up on a hill overlooking the coast, well situated with pretty Italian Cypress trees along the driveway. Completely private, feels remote but has a nice little neighbourhood on the hillside which feels safe. Pack a torch for evening walks. The road up is a single track with pull in areas, we enjoyed the track up and down for the views, if you're an experienced driver no issue, if less so, just take it steady. The villa is clean and tidy with eveything you will need for your stay, washing machine, kettle, hair dryer, plenty of towels, entertainment etc. The pool was great, with coloured lights. Pretty gardens. The best supermarket to stock up - El Ingenio, Velez-Malaga,there is a fuel station and mall type convenience. During our stay we visited Caminito del Rey & El Gaitanejo, the well photographed narrow gorge walkway, we had encounters with goats, found fossils and loved watching the train pass through the gorge, a marvel of engineering. We had a great day out at Cueva De Nerja which is a stunning cave with spectacular formations, there was also a VR experience which sent my brain into a tizzy about simulation theory and some really pleasant botanical gardens. We took quite a hike one day and visited Bajada al Canuelo a lesser trodden, clean, beautiful beach, steep way down from the car park through the woods & back up the road. Lots more to see and do! James, thank you for having us! "

"We had a wonderful, restful holiday. Bob and Chris were perfect hosts - there when needed but never intrusive. Although my limited mobility meant that we couldn't fully enjoy the gardens, the facilities were perfect."

"A lovely well appointed villa with spectacular views and a lovely swimming pool. The sunsets were epic, and we had a great time as a family. My only slight negative would be the drive up being on windy roads meaning we didnt venture out for dinner due to not wanting to do the drive in the dark. Otherwise, we had a great week. "

"The drive to the house was terrifying, we had people cancel day trips and plans because they didn’t want to drive the road to the house. One of my family refused to go in the car to Sayalonga and walked to the town every single time to avoid the scary drive. We were unable to use both pools on any of the days, it was one or the other and they were cloudy for most if not all of our stay. Not enough washing machines, refrigerator space, beds were uncomfortable, no a/c in the house, we had to buy about 20 fans so people could sleep. It was a nightmare and has tarnished VRBO for me personally. I have lost trust in your site. Shocking really"

"Excellent little house in a lovely village. Great base for exploring the area."
