Colina del Paraiso

Just home from a lovely week stay at Colina Del Paraiso. We decided not to hire a car - mainly due to us not being 💯 comfortable with driving on the other side of the road. It is doable but in hindsight a car would have probably enhanced the holiday for us (we will do this next time). But we made do with a few taxi’s here and there. All cabs were on a meter and only one driver took us on a ‘scenic route’. The accommodation is dated but at the price point we paid - I wasn’t too disappointed. The town house was huge! So much space inside and outside and a lovely Jacuzzi on the roof. We had house 15 which was close to the first pool and was very handy for popping back to have lunch or grab an ice cream. The stairs inside the house could have been a problem if the children were younger, but there was a banister to hold onto when coming down (being organised with towels and drying off etc is a must). They had the potential to be very slippy. Air con was absolutely freezing, being able to close the vents on certain rooms was great as one of the rooms got too cold in the nighttime, as soon as we closed the vent it was perfect! The staff were super helpful - when extra pillows were requested it was no problem, ordering taxi’s for us from and to the complex. We ate in the restaurant twice food was lovely. The fish at bbq night was fab and again the staff were attentive and friendly. Our towels were changed half way through our stay, along with fresh bed linen, bins emptied which we weren’t expecting, so that was a nice surprise. The cleaner kindly took all our recycling away with her too. No problems with the deposit which we were cautious of after reading the reviews. The room was checked when we handed the keys back and the £200 hold on my card was cancelled and a receipt was given to me there and then. I would be happy to recommend to my friends and return again (with a car).
