Great Villa that needed some TLC.
Towels and kitchen utensils need upgraded.
Outside lights need fixed and something needs to be done with the light over the outside table - you have to stand on a chair to put it on/off.
No instructions on oven as all rubbed off through time so pot luck operating it.
Master en suite shower drain blocked resulting in flooding the bathroom.
Pool area is good but again no lighting at night. Watch out for golf balls flying in though.
Good wifi coverage and good local amenities that you can walk to.
Overall a nice villa situated in a nice area that just needs some attention.

Thank you for the review. We appreciate the feedback about the towels and have purchased more.
We did not know about any issue with the outside lights until this review (you did not mention it to us during your stay). This is now fixed.
We apologise about the blocked drain - again this is now resolved.
We have a conventional oven which we "think" is fairly simple to use but feel free to ask a member of staff to show you.
Having spoken to you, I know what a lovely time you had at the villa. Thank you for being great guests - we hope to welcome you back again in the future.

We enjoyed our stay here in comfortable good sized bedrooms and the pool and outside area was ideal for bbq with comfortable seating area for dining.outside and in. We found the are quiet which suited our family, but with few bars locally we used the adjoining area of Golf del Sur for more restaurants and bars.

Property a little tired but good value for the price paid. Good golf course access and Los Abrigos has a few quality restaurants although, apart from The 19th Hole and La Torre, there’s nothing local worth mentioning. Good value overall but Villa needs a little money spending on it.
Reply from Amarilla Golf Villas
Thank you for the 4 star review. We appreciate your comments and the suggestions you made to us.
We took on board your comments and since your stay have completely redecorated the villa, bought brand new linen and towels and also purchased new crockery and cutlery.
We are so glad you found the villa good value for money. We love the location - you mention 2 very good local bars / restaurants but also the marina with its shops, bars and sea front restaurants its just a 10 min walk away.
We are committed to ensuring our clients have the best experience possible at the villa and will always listen to customer feedback in order to improve.
We hope to see you again soon.

I would like to thank Marcos for his hospitality and for accommodating us for a late check out. As we had two small children with us and our flight was only at 8pm. We had a great week and enjoyed the facilities the property provided. I highly recommend this property.

Thank you for the lovely review, I am so glad you had a great time at the villa. We will certainly pass on your feedback to the owner. We would love to welcome you back to Tenerife in the future.

The villa was clean and tidy by 3 when we were able to check in. Marcos was easy to get hold of and helpful when he welcomed us to the property.
The accommodation is good and the small pool a great addition for the three children (rather chilly for the adults). It is solar heated so this was to be expected.
We did feel that the injection of a small amount of money would have provided a great improvement. The crockery and cutlery was very tired and mismatched as were the glasses. A lack of four decent wine glasses was a disappointment! The kettle was way too small - it was clearly a travel kettle and would only do a maximum of three drinks at a time. There were no shelves in the door of the fridge so storing drinks and milk was a challenge. A couple of the bed bases upstairs were past their best and creaked and groaned when used.
Overall we thought the villa was good and the above is meant as constructive criticism. Following other reviews I would just say that we had no problem with golf balls!!
Reply from Amarilla Golf Villas
Thank you for the very nice review. We are so glad you had a lovely time. We agree about the crockery / cutlery and kettle, so will be replacing these.
The format of the golf course has changed so that there should be no golf balls coming in now - the villa overlooks the green where people are putting (not driving).
We appreciate all feedback and where possible will act on all comments to make our clients experience as enjoyable as possible. Thank you and hope to welcome you back in the future.

We spent 10 days here in September and had a great time. We arrived earlier than our check in time but Marcos the owner met us at the villa and was very welcoming and helpful. The villa overlooks the golf course and we enjoyed sitting on the bedroom balcony every morning watching the golfers. We did have a couple of golf balls come into the pool area but this was on particularly windy days. The villa is situated within walking distance of restaurants, shops and the marina so a car is not required but if you want to travel further afield there is a taxi rank close to the local supermarket.

We were met on arrival by Marcos who was very welcoming and showed us around the villa.
There had clearly been some recent modernisation of the villa and Marcos explained that there will actually be some further work done before the summer – including a 5th bedroom!
We found the villa absolutely ideal for our needs. We were fortunate to have fairly good weather and the pool was warm enough to swim in despite the outside temperature dropping significantly in the evening.
Good sized bedrooms – fabulous views from the master – and a well equipped kitchen.
The TV system was amazing – with more channels than our children could ever dream of!
We also enjoyed the location of the villa, which is on a pretty and very quiet road leading down to the sea. Within a 10 min walk there are several bars and restaurants as well as a supermarket. The marina is a great place to head in the evening and this took us about 15 minutes. Here there are plenty of sea front restaurants to choose from. Most of which we thoroughly enjoyed.
Marcos also showed us his brand new development, called Amarilla Golf Villas which is a 10 min walk from the villa. Guests staying at the villa are able to use the restaurant here which, as well as serving lovely food, has the most amazing views!
The villa offers fantastic value for money and we would definitely return. Thank you to Jon from Tenerife Hols for his excellent service when we booked and also to Marcos who was always available during our stay.

The villa was nice and spacious as written on this page. It was a holiday for 6 lads, with enough space around the villa and the equipment was decent enough to cook meals. The Lads an I came up with some honest pros and cons.
Pros:
spacious villa, pool was kept clean, the showers and toilets were in good standard, some of the equipment could do with a refurb to make it look more modern. Everything was good, was met with Marcos on arrival, we landed a little earlier so we checked in earlier, although interrupting the cleaner they were nice who cleaned the villa spotless.
The chilling area around the pool was nice, enough chairs to sit and chill.
The location was good, no trouble around the area, enough car parking and local supermarket was helpful for 6 meat heads for our protein intake.
The beds were ok, comfortable enough to have a good night sleep on after a night or two of drunk partying. As we hired a vehicle everything was quite close by so its definitely in a good location!
The villa does get hot and the advert says “ceiling fans” but there is none!!! We requested some but faced some issues and could not be resolved.
Overall:
Marcos is a nice person and friendly to resolve most problems, the villa is a lovely place to stay, I recommend any one who consider this place to just book it and go! Good time at this place! The price was perfect and the villa was as almost described. The holiday was so much better staying here rather than a hotel! Will 100% recommend to others!

Will start with the 1 negative thing we had over our 6.5 day stay , and that was no hot water for 1 full day , when you are living with 3 women call me old fashioned but they need hot water to wash/shower in ! Men dont ! Your paying over £900 a week you'd think you'd get hot water for the whole week its not too much to expect ! No mention of any refund for the inconvenience!
That said the villa is really good plenty space inside and out , tv/internet sports tv and uk channels very good !
We knew the area well before staying , if you want a quite time away from it all ,in a villa with good amenities this is for you !
You stay on the golf course right by the 6th green a short walk from the famous 5th (La Quinta ) a must for any keen golfer , dont play in winter unless your loaded play in may/june when rates are much cheaper !
All in all a great place to stay will defiantly book again !

Nice villa. Right next to the golf clourse so beware golf balls coming over the fence. Could do with air conditioning as had to sleep with windows open & then woken up early morning by golf course grass being mown. There was only 2 of us but if there had of been 8 then would have been difficult around pool for all to get some sun. Marcus the owner was great & let us stay in the villa on day of departure as we had an evening flight. He was just at the end of the phone if we had any difficulties. Overall a lovely relaxing villa.
Reply from Amarilla Golf Villas
Thank you very much for your review. I am so glad you had a lovely time at the villa.
The villa overlooks the green of the golf course so there should not be any stray golf balls at all. We've certainly not experienced this. The grass on the green is cut once a week and the golf course state this won't be before 8am. 99% of the time this is done late afternoon.
We have had 8 people on the villa on many occasions and between the pool area and the side terrace there is plenty of room to stretch out in the sun.
I am glad you have had a relaxing holiday. We do our best to give our clients the best experience possible. We've actually spent quite a lot of money on the villa recently and I hope the new photos (taken Oct 16) show just how modern and comfortable the villa is.
Hope to see you again.

Really nice villa in a nice quiet resort. Couple of local bars and restaurants close by as well as a supermarket (less than 5 mins walk). Other shops and restaurants are around a 10-15 min stroll. There were no hawkers or beggars at all in this resort which was a change from the other resorts we've stayed at on the island.
This resort can be a bit breezy and it was during our stay. The local beaches are rocky, though there are some sandy stretches as you walk along the coast near Golf Del Sur. We didn't bother as we used the private pool which was lovely and our kids really enjoyed it (though it was on the chilly side, the solar heater doesn't make much of a dent in the temp in the winter months).
The villa is well kitted out with washing machine, dishwasher and has pretty decent WiFi along with an Internet TV box that gives most of the UK free view channels (only issue is that network cable has to stretch across floor when plugged in). All beds had good comfy mattresses and master bed room is lovely and roomy. The paintwork and decor is starting to show signs of wear and tear and there were a couple of light bulbs that had gone, but it was all minor and didn't diminish our stay. Only thing that would have made our trip better would have been a second set of keys (but then again we didn't ask for a set) and the green keepers not cutting the grass early each morning.

The villa was nice and well equipped. Large living areas inside and out. Staircase to upstairs bedrooms was a bit dangerous for young children. Beds had plastic matress protectors making them uncomfortable in the heat. The villa looks on to the 6th green of the golf course and as a result there was danger of golf balls coming into pool area. We had at least 10 strikes during our stay. Overall enjoyed our stay but were a bit uncomfortable sitting by the pool during the day because of the golf balls.

We rented the house with 4 kids and 4 adults.The location is quite and very nice. The house is nice and as per the pictures of the web site. The master bed room is great, the other bedrooms are smaller but fine for holidays. The terrace/patio is really convenient. Overall the house is really nice. Some areas of improvement are the aluminum doors and windows which are difficult to open/close and need some fixing. Also, the amount of flatware and dishes is not sufficient.
Other than that, no problem and very nice stay.

This is a lovely villa in a great location. Very close to the local shops and restaurants and within easy walking distance of the marina and seafront. The villa was well furnished generally but the bed was very uncomfortable, very hard mattress with a plastic mattress topper which made the bed very hot and crackled every time one of us moved. Also, the wooden bed frame stuck out at the bottom which caused a few bruises on our legs from bashing into it when walking about in the bedroom! Another thing which was a bit annoying was that the owners did not leave any hand soap, bin bags or extra toilet rolls so we had to buy them, which we have never had to do before when staying in a villa. The outside seating area, and the gardens in general, were lovely and very relaxing to sit in! And the balconies were fantastic. Overall, we enjoyed staying in the villa and would probably stay again (especially if the mattress was changed for a more comfortable one and the mattress topper was scrapped!)

We really enjoyed our stay in the villa. It was very spacious and in a very quiet area, but a pleasant walk away from a decent selec tion of restaurants near the marina - take a torch if you walk along the front on a Winters evening. Also there is a lovely walk down the coast to an old volcano rim. The villa master bedroom was great, particularly the balcony overlooking the golf course with views down to the sea. I also really liked the outdoor seating area - almost like having a lounge outside with really comfortable seating and a sliding glass door that could be closed when the wind was blowing. There was some aircraft noise - but as there are no night flights it was not a major issue. Minor grumbles - there was no BBC/ITV TV channels (but could get Welsh Channel 4!) and the villa is looking a bit tatty round the edges - considering it is only a few years old. WI-FI in theory was available from a local hot spot - chargeable at 30 euros a week, but I lost connection when trying to pay for it so did not bother. Overall we had a great stay and would recommend the villa for a large family group.

This is a great villa and I was very happy with it overall. I was there for 2 weeks and did not receive any change of bedding or towels (as promised) I washed my own. The satellite system did not work but as I was here to party with friends I did not use the tv much. I was isolated from world news, having no English TV and missed out on Nelson Mandellas demise. The lack of satellite or guidance on how to operate the tv and other devices could be an issue to some. There is a real issue here with leaks following rain. A leak was constant near the dining area and in the covered outside area water poured through the canopy. The owner (Marcos) was very accommodating but I didnt want to spend my holiday constantly phoning him. Overall it was a great place, nice pool regularly cleaned and well appointed to watch golfers approaching the sixth green.

I can safely say the photos of this villa do not do it any justice whatsoever. The villa looks good on the website but in reality it is absolutely stunning! Even from the outside, it stands out a mile amongst the other villas in the area.
Having stayed in villas all around the world, this ranks up there amongst the best. Everything was brand new and immaculate. It was a pleasure just to relax and spend time in the villa and just enjoy it - the heated pool was a real bonus too!
Excellent service from the management company throughout. We're already looking to return next year.
