FROM THE VILLA VALENCIA GUESTBOOK
This is the best villa we've ever been to. Nothing else will be good enough from now on! The pool was great…The weather has been great…the garden is excellent…the children made camps and played loads of games and (enjoyed) feeding the fish and ducks…we loved eating outside by the BBQ and sunbathing by the pool. The views were great…the supermarket is practically down the road and Los Llanos not far at all… the beds were very 'comfy'. The layout of the villa is also perfect…we cannot wait to come again…La Palma has been fascinating and we can't fault anything about this holiday!…A memorable holiday for two families - a real chance to get away from it all. Plenty of variety from the many outside areas which kept the children amused for hours, providing adults with sun, shade, and tranquility…we hope to come back soon and enjoy the villa in different seasons and to explore more of this beautiful island.

Our first impression of Quinta Valencia was breathtaking...we were convinced we'd arrived at the wrong Villa, and if the view from outside was stunning, when we entered the Villa, the surroundings were superb! We scurried from room-to-room and couldn't believe our luck to have arrived at such a beautiful location….Much time was spent in and around the herb garden..so tranquil, and we must have walked every inch of the grounds…the sheer size of the Villa meant everyone had their 'own space'.. We shall certainly recommend Quinta Valencia to friends who want a special holiday away from the normal package holidays.

We can only echo comments made by previous guests regarding the quality of this Villa and the beauty of the surrounding countryside… we must praise and thank Cees and Carlos for 'pulling-out-all-the-stops'and making every effort to help us and for being so kind. …they provided invaluable advice in so many ways.

The Villa itself is unbelievable….we cannot believe we have stayed in such a luxurious and extravagantly decorated place… the views are fantastic and the location is peaceful and unspoilt by tourism…the gardens are lovely…the pool and other facilities were great…there's plenty of cooking and storage facilities, barbecue area, sauna, stereo, satellite TV with two English channels, sunbathing area and beds, marvellous bedrooms… Our party of nine, including a baby, had plenty of room to spread out.

Quinta Valencia is absolutely fabulous! We never drempt the Villa would be so amazing! We could not believe our eyes when we arrived.The weather was warm by day and cool by night, but this was compensated by the glorious open fire and the central heating when required. The Villa is very spacious. The scenery around here is breathtaking…The local people are very friendly; no one approaches you in the street to sell you something, unlike some other holiday resorts we have visited before.

We found Quinta Valencia on the internet and it looked beautiful! It is more beautiful than we expected! It was great to have so much space both inside the house and in the gardens, which are so well-kept. The pool is great - whole days can be spent lazing about here. Our kids loved it……La Palma is a very unspoilt and a very green and beautiful island.

Amazing! That about sums up our stay. The Villa is the most beautiful place at which we have ever had the pleasure of staying. The Island remains unspoilt, which is refreshing, especially after a day trip across to Tenerife. Many thanks to Cees and Carlos, whose friendliness and helpfulness was well above the call of duty! We never met Eugene, who organised our trip so well, but thanks for all everyone has done to make our stay an experience that will be hard to equal.

Quinta Valencia is everything it promised and more, with outstanding views and the perfect location. The beautifully-kept gardens provided a tranquil place to enjoy an early morning cup of tea. We would recommend it to anybody. It is an ideal place to relax and unwind in complete privacy - even skinny-dipping in the pool if you wish!. It provides an ideal base from which to explore the Island and enjoy the mountain walks.

Here we are again! -- We just couldn't stop thinking about this beautiful Island. It's been only nine months since we were here for the first time, and we hope it won't be longer than that until our next stay. The warm welcome made us feel like we were home again…We thought this time we would be able to see the rest of La Palma, but we think we will need at least another four weeks or more. The weather has been fantastic…We will return once again when the winter back in Norway makes us want to return to the Ïsland of our dreams.

As an investment, the property has been a working rental, and thereby in extremely super, well-kept condition. There is definitely a rental potential and possible maid and daily cleaning services available.
