La Galesa - This villa is unique! A large detached modern-style villa, built on an exclusive estate 9km outside Javea (Xabia in the local dialect) towards the Cabo de la Nao (Cape), and was designed by the owner. One of only five frontline properties here, there are only pine trees and the Mediterranean sea between you and a view of Ibiza. It is surrounded by well-kept mature gardens and maintained to a high standard internally and externally, as you would expect for a villa of this quality and location, and is within a fifteen minute walk of Portichol beach, which is a lovely bay with a beachside bar during the summer.
Accommodation - The villa has been designed around an enclosed and totally private courtyard with blue and white Moorish tiles and a square central fountain.
One bedroom overlooks the Mediterranean, and is reached from one end of the cloistered walk, the second opens directly onto the courtyard. The third bedroom faces West, and opens from an inside corridor and has two en-suite bathrooms.
All bedrooms have King-size beds (not doubles), are en-suite, and have very large ceiling fans - the house was designed to take account of the natural movement of air to keep the rooms cool but there is air-conditioning (charged extra upon meter usage). In the living room there is a large flat screen television and a DVD player.
The kitchen is fully equipped with enough cookware and crockery to please the most enthusiastic cook. There is an electric eye-level oven, gas hob, microwave/convection oven with grill, dishwasher, fridge/deepfreeze¸ coffee makers etc.
Air-conditioning & warm-air heating - Units to bedrooms and living room, charged upon meter usage. The Panasonic units are very cost efficient to run.
Solar-powered heated swimming pool - solar panels provide hot water for the swimming pool. This helps to increase the water temperature by a couple of degrees - most welcome in late spring and early autumn, but the ambient temperature needs to be a minimum of 25 degrees for it to be effective.
Internet Access - A free Wi-Fi ADSL broadband connection is available for guests' use, via a router in the living room. You must take your own laptop to connect up: the router can be accessed by wireless only: instructions at the villa.
*Cable Television - 155 international channels providing the following:-
14 English channels including BBC1, ITV, etc; 60 German; 5 French; 5 Dutch and 22 Spanish.
Air-conditioning & warm-air heating - Units to bedrooms and living room, charged upon meter usage. The Panasonic units are very cost efficient to run.
