Not long back from spending a week staying at the Mount and Sea View House. We had requested an airport pick up and were met by Ken at the airport on arrival. A short car journey brought us to the accommodation where we were met by Pam who showed us around and gave us some great advice on the area, places to eat and drink, public transportation etc etc. The property itself was immaculate and just what we expected. Tastefully decorated with all mod cons and only a short stroll to the nearest supermarket. The property is located in a very quiet, residential area of Gran Alacant. It is also situated on the top of a hill which is easy to walk down heading towards the promenade but not as easy to walk back up after a day of sunbathing on the beach. We had an excellent week weather wise and the only downside of the holiday was that after spending hours sunbathing on the fabulous rooftop terrace, we couldn't nip down to the communal pool for a quick dip as it was being refurbished. Thanks to Pam and Ken for all your help and advice and to James for letting us stay at your property. We would definitely consider returning.

This was our 4th visit to Jim and Laurie's house, and it gets better every time. Home from home, everything you need. Just a short walk to local bars, restaurants and supermarket. 2 min drive to a lovely beach or a 10 min walk if your feeling energetic. highly recommended for all age groups, we travelled with my 2 kids aged 10 and 7 and they thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Myself, husband and young teenage son travelled. The house was spotless and very comfortable. The air con, was brillant as July was really hot. There is a little under stair cupboard with toys/beach stuff you can borrow. My teenage son was delighted to use the buggy boards for riding the waves on the beach! Also having the TV with all the main channels was a big hit with him. Did not use the DVD as we were out every night !! Plenty of local restaurants/ bars to keep you busy. Views from the roof terrace were fab. The house is situated right beside the pool, which is really handy. The pool and pool area are very well maintained, there is a lovely relaxing atmosphere poolside. The beach is fantastic, really clean sand and the beds etc, well looked after. You can walk to the beach which is down hill but the walk back is a killer in the July heat !!! Only did it the once, usually took the car. The house is close to the supermarket if on foot and there was a great little market on the Thurs just a few blocks away. Not too big, but all the essentials you would expect, shoes/clothes/jewellery/bags etc as well as fresh fruit and veg, cheeses, olives. Got a few bargins to take home! There is plenty to see in the area if you have car hire but we also took the local bus one of the days to nearby Santa Pola, which has a diving club and who we went snorkelling with off the nearby island of Tarbaca. Santa Pola is also lovely for a night out dining or shopping. So is Alicante town, also acessible by the nearby bus. Well worth a visit, we went in the evening and the buzz was great. Have to say we had a wonderful holiday and the house would be our first choice to book if we were making a return visit. I would have no hesitation in recommending it to friends.

You never want for anything in this house and location. We have returned 3 times now and still can not think of a better way to spend a family holiday. With a fully equipped house in located in a quiet area just a short walk to bars and restaurants and served by a very cheap and reliable bus service to many other towns dotted around the area. The pool is superb and very well maintained and updated. Ticks all the holiday boxes!

The villa was very well equipped and gave us everything we needed, the area was lovely and quiet and the pool being right outside the front door was a big bonus that we enjoyed. The area is very good with shops, bars and resturants all in walking distance and the available train to travel is great which links up to other areas which have bars and restuarants also. The beach is a short walk down hill or you can use the train walking back up is ok if you take your time otherwise just use the train. The supermarket is located very close buy and has everything you need especially if you fancy a night in. We have re-booked to use this villa again and intend to become regulars as long as availability allows.
