Anfi Tauro Villa Carmela, Pool, Hot Tub, Private Garden -Uninterrupted Sea Views

This large, 3 bedroom villa is the most spectacular in the popular Anfi Tauro complex set in the quiet and idyllic Tauro valley. It is the closest villa to the sea with the best views, particularly the sunsets. Hop in the new hot tub and enjoy the amazing sunsets.

Imagine waking up to the sounds of tweeting birds as the sun rises over the golf course beside the villa. Take a dip in the private heated swimming pool then relax in the beautiful garden with uninterrupted views of the sea. When you are up for it, brew some coffee and have breakfast in the garden. Plenty of time for golfing or sunbathing later.

The unique beauty of Villa Carmela is it is the closest villa to the sea in the whole complex and is not overlooked so offers uninterrupted views and complete privacy.

The garden gets the sun almost for the entire day so if sun worship is your goal it is perfect. However, if you prefer the shade we have plenty of outdoor space that is covered and shady. You will find fantastic uninterrupted views over the Atlantic ocean and the 4th green of the golf course.

We provide free Wi-Fi internet access and we have a media box that provides all UK and Scandinavian TV channels.

There are large picture windows and full length sliding doors that afford exceptional sea and golf views from inside the property.

There is a stunning garden with a webber gas BBQ, a private heated pool and an outside shower....

Air-conditioning installed throughout villa including a "quiet" mode for sleeping. The whole villa has recently been upgraded and refurbished at substantial cost so it really is the best villa in Anfi Tauro.

In the master ensuite bathroom there is also a fantastic jacuzzi bath so you can really relax and get into holiday mode.

Highest quality comfortable bedding and mattresses so you can fully relax and enjoy a great nights sleep.

The complex also has 2 common swimming pools which guests have access to (one which is heated).

There is also a large Spar supermarket and a nice grill restaurant next door - Tauro Grill. They are well renowned for their BBQ's.

Anfi Tauro is the perfect place to kick back and relax with family and friends.

It is perfect for families and we can provide baby cot, high chair and push buggy for the kids :-)

We highly recommend renting a car for your stay as there is so much to explore on this fantastic island. It is so much more than a beach and sun destination and if you take a trip up the mountains you will have amazing views of the volcanic landscape. You can eat in cave restaurants and enjoy traditional Canarian cuisine away from the tourist traps. There is room for 2 cars to park right outside the front door.

But if you want to explore more then we can recommend Palmitos Park, Aqualand, Angry Birds Park, Sioux City and many other attractions. Afrikat is the best boat trip to go on and is a great day out. We provide loads of information to our guests about activities, restaurants and tours through our detailed information pack that we send to all guests.

As I am based in Gran Canaria I am happy to meet guests and give recommendations based on your preferences.

Lovely slice of paradise.
Our family of 6 adults just completed a holiday at Villa Carmela in Anfi Tauro in early January. It was a wonderful place to stay; truly ideal for us to enjoy a restful, yet activity-filled vacation. The villa is comfortable and spacious, so it is easy to find quiet time on an individual basis, while being designed so there are great gathering spaces too. The villa has a large kitchen with full-sized fridge/freezer, grill, and dishwasher so that dinners in are quite manageable. The location provides a quick walk to Tauro beach, which currently has no changing facilities, but that’s not a problem as it is easy to get back and forth to the villa. On a positive note, however, the beach is not crowded with shops and people so spreading out a towel for a session in the sun and surf is more private than on other beaches in the area. Most importantly, Gerard was a wonderful host, as others have said. He was communicative from the very first and remained in touch as we finished our stay and headed home. He provided great, helpful information and made us feel very much at home in the villa. I highly recommend a stay on this lovely, diverse island in this convenient and comfortable location!

Super villa
Villa Carmela is a great holiday home in a lovely location. Gerard was a joy to deal with throughout the booking process, met us on arrival and then helped with our departure. The villa is very spacious inside and out. It is very clean and has all the facilities you need for a relaxing holiday. The shop and restaurant on-site are great and very useful. Taxis are cheap and easy to get to go anywhere you need to. The villa captures the sun all day and the pool and hot-tub are great to cool down in. Would thoroughly recommend.

A Perfect 5 star Holiday
Villa Carmela is amazing. It’s in a superb location with uninterrupted views over the golf course and the sea. It is a spacious, stunning and immaculate property and very well equipped. There is a lovely heated pool, hot tub and a superb Weber barbecue. There is a fantastic dining area with sliding doors that brings the outside in. Gerard was the perfect host and a very likeable guy and makes a great effort to ensure his guests have a great stay. Would definitely recommend Villa Carmela and we will definitely be back.

A lovely property with all we needed for a three generation holiday
The property is well maintained and equipped. For our family of grandparents, parents and two small boys, it was ideal. The small pool, with a great supply of pool toys, was just right for our four year old. We loved Tauro beach, which is accessible on foot. The Bar Pio Pio there is good for drinks and a tapas lunch. With a short drive, we could reach other, more commercial beaches as well as good supermarkets. Palmitos Park is an excellent day trip. Our only very minor complaint is about the house description. There was no mention in advance of the restrictions on the use of the hot tub - no children and no drinks! However, this is a small point, given the many advantages of the villa.

Holiday Sept 2018
We spent two weeks in the middle of September at Villa Carmela and had a really enjoyable stay. The villa is really lovely, one of the best we have stayed in and there was everything needed to make it feel like home. The photos on the website are just as the villa is, not at all misleading. Ger was always on hand if there was a problem and Heather, the airport taxi lady, was most informative. Despite Ger's misgivings about getting a taxi to and from the villa, once the taxi company had picked us up the first time, we had no problem and now Villa Carmela is on their radar! Dead cheap too so we didn't bother to hire a car. The two local restaurants, Guatanamo and Tauro Bar and Grill are a ten minute walk across the golf course and are really good; portions very large, the Mexican Coffee is a must at Guatanamo. We met the two resident lizards along with several gekkos and luckily no mosquitoes. We divided our time between the villa and Amadores beach, which is wonderful. The pool is a bit teeny for swimming but big enough for three adults to cool off in. All in all we had a very enjoyable stay and will definitely consider returning. Only one complaint - the weather in the middle of our stay was TOO HOT - mid 30s!!!! Sally & Mike (Kent)

High quality and spacious villa, ideally located
Villa Carmela is almost certainly the best of various villas we have rented over the years. Ideally located at the end of a run of smart villas within the Anfi Tauro golf complex, it is totally private and has uninterrupted views across the course to the sea beyond. The rooms are all large and well furnished, the air-con units are both effective and quiet, and the whole villa is very well equipped indeed. Perhaps the garden pool is a little smaller than we're used to but then there's a much larger shared pool within 100m walk. It's just 5 mins drive both to a super new Mercadano supermarket and also to the excellent beach and restaurants at Amadores. The fast coast road makes exploring the whole island very easy and, whilst perhaps not as attractive overall as Lanzarote, we found some great sights to explore. Highly recommended.

Beautiful villa in a lovely Setting
Just back from a week in this lovely villa. The villa is extremely comfortable with luxury furnishings. All the rooms are big and the beds super comfy. The position of the villa is probably the best on site with the best views. It is very private and the location lent itself to some fantastic star gazing every night we were there. The estate itself is very pretty with a great communal pool, restaurant and spa shop. There is a really pretty beach in walking distance and plenty of excellent restaurants near by. The communication we received before the rental was superb. We would love to return and highly recommend this villa.

An excellent place to be in February
This is a splendid villa, very advantageously situated. It lives up in practice to the description online, and was in no way disappointing therefore. There are coastal walks nearby, a sandy beach within ten minutes walk and a good restaurant close at hand, the Tauro grill (try the steaks and the padron peppers). What made this venue stand out in my opinion, from some of the other places that we have rented over the last decade was the amount of assistance and non-intrusive guidance that we received. For example the description of the route to the villa from the airport was so clear and precise that it enabled me to find it without hesitation. And that was driving a hire car from the airport in the dark! Ger always answered any query we had before the trip very quickly, and was on hand at arrival and departure to provide any help needed. Added to that there was a handbook which answered any question I could think of with regard to activities, shops restaurants and excursions. Everything was done to make a success of our stay. Thank you. Richard Shone

Luxury Villa - Luxury Stay!
A beautiful 3 bed, 3 bathroom Villa, with what I would say is the best position on the site. Private with great views. Loads of room inside for six adults. Huge open plan living room and very well fitted kitchen. Huge bedrooms with a jacuzzi in one of them. Double sinks in all of them with the best shower I've had in ages - as powerful as you want. Sliding doors to the garden area with good garden furniture and a good sized plunge pool. Great communication from the owner throughout our booking and during our stay. A very well stocked Spar shop 5 minutes walk away - freshly baked bread every day. We didn't even bother with a larger supermarket as it also had a great drinks selection and all at really good prices. The Tauro Grill next door to the shop served amazing food. If you order the Bullock Chop, prepare to be amazed! BBQ'd to perfection. Villa Carmella is totally and highly recommended. Best villa my wife and I, along with our friends, have ever stayed in. A holiday break in style!

Great villa, just what we needed
We stayed here in mid October 2017 and loved it. The villa is great, very spacious living area and kitchen. The villa has so much to offer. Our family had five adults and two children (aged 6 and 4). Despite having seven of us staying at the villa there was plenty of space. The pictures provided on the site are a true reflection of the villa. The amenities at the villa are really good, just like a home from home. Lots of different crockery and kitchen utensils if you want to cook. Ger is great in both the lead up to your stay and also during your stay. A lot of thought has been given to make your stay enjoyable and easy. Lovely touch to arrive with some milk and a few other groceries waiting in the fridge for us. The kids loved the pool and it is heated and warm. They also loved the crazy golf by Amadores beach. Villa is in good location and Puerto Mogán is lovely for dinner with lots of options of restaurants. Highly recommended. Thanks Ger.

Great accommodation, would happily recommend to others
The accommodation was everything it promised in the ad, it was very well looked after, well equipped throughout, and we had a fantastic stay at this villa. Gerard was extremely helpful throughout our booking and during our stay here, nothing was too much trouble. The local are had some great restaurants, all easy to get too. You do need a car to see the area but easy to get around on good roads. If you like golf it's very convenient too. A great view down to the sea from the garden made it very private and not overlooked in any way. Overall a great property which I would happily recommend to others. Thank you for a great holiday!

Superb Relaxing Family holiday in the lap of understated luxury.....
Fantastic Villa that exceeded all expectations. Mornings on the nearby Amadores beach, afternoons at the villa pool and complex pools with kids and evenings - a mix of BBQs in the garden while enjoying sundowners and venturing to some lovely restaurants in the nearby Puerto Mogan. The villa has every luxury one could ask for - great comfortable beds, good showers and ensuites, sliding doors that bring the garden inside and vice versa.....and perfect kitchen for cooking some lazy breakfasts and some local fish bought at Arguineguin fish market on the pier. Even watched some Sky Sports.........we will be back for sure and thanks to Ger for all the helpful suggestions and amazing response times. And did I mention the great views of the golf course and sea and the privacy.......? Thanks for a really great holiday.

Absolutely stunning villa
The villa is absolutely stunning and is even better than it looks in the pictures! It is a little out of the way so possibly not the place of you want to be right in the centre of things. But we loved how quiet and peaceful it was - it made for a very relaxing break. And it's perfect if you have a car because it's only 10-15 minutes down to mogan- the most beautiful town on the island in my opinion. The villa is fully equiped with everything you could need, even a selection of guidebooks to help plan your days! It's immaculately clean and beautifully designed. It really is a great place to stay and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Ger was also fantastic in his communication with us. He sent us a guide before we stayed and checked in to make sure we were happy throughout. Really can't fault anything about our stay. Thanks for making our holiday so special!

Fantastic relaxing location, you will not want to leave
Location was the best in the complex and area was very quiet overlooking the golf course with views of the sea. 5mins drive to Amadores beach which is one of the best beaches in the island as it is protected with great facilities and plenty of parking. From here you can walk to Puerto Rico beach great to do early in the morning when it's cooler. The SPAR is close and well stocked with items you will recognise from UK. The villa was bright modern. Very clean and of a high standard with all facilities you would need and more. Very spacious rooms with en suite. Pool was very warm and clean, my kids were in there all the time. They also enjoyed reading the books they found in the rooms. Gerard kept in touch regularly and was efficient in dealing with any questions and queries we raised. The best relaxing holiday. Catering for 3 generations in one villa. The golf course is beautiful. The TV has channels to keep everyone entertained but we spent most of our time relaxing in the pool and garden. My father is already thinking of when he can come back.

Fantastic villa and location
Villa was immaculate in every way. Location was excellent and area was very quiet overlooking the golf course with views of the sea. It is in the best location on the development and would have no hesitation in recommending a holiday here. Very close to Amadores beach which is one of the best beaches in the world especially great for kids as it is well protected. Pool was very warm just like a bath. Great to have three ensuites as we were 3 couples. Plenty of space in the villa and even has uk tv channels which was an unexpected bonus. Spacious lounge and kitchen area and a great dining area. Will definitely stay again. Only problem was that we could not stay longer!

Fantastic villa, furnished beautifully and great location
We loved everything about this Villa - and already have planned to come back in the summer. It was perfect for us (with 3 boys 5-11) The pool is a nice size and not deep (and warm), and outside area is great, plenty of sun and shade and the artificial lawn works well. Inside the Villa is very spacious, all bedrooms with large en suites and living areas that are large, well presented and modern. Also found it very well equipped and everything of a good quality. The location was great, easy to get around. We spent most evenings in Puerto Megan, 10 mins away, which was lovely with lots of choice of restaurants. Finally Gerard was very helpful, the information provided was valuable and his communication and assistance was faultless. Looking toward to coming back in the summer. You would not regret booking this Villa!
