Casa Agata Sayalonga

Wonderful
Traveller Type: Business Traveler
  : This is a beautiful, isolated villa in the hills above Sayalonga. Very spacious with a large pool and lovely hot tub that comfortably seats 4, 6 at a squeeze. Bedrooms are clean and comfortable with the outside areas being gorgeous too. The outside BBQ / Bar area with copious beer fridge was a delight! It's a perfect place to spend some time just relaxing, chilling, and enjoying the Andalucian sun. Plenty of seating for all at various tables around the property and a lovely wrap-around terrace on the 1st floor. Lots of parking available. Stunningly attractive, very spanish style building. Great if you love isolation although it is only 25 minutes from the motorway and/or beach. Big Hyper market an easy drive away on the edges of Velez-Malaga. A lovely stay was enjoyed by all and we would return in a heartbeat.
  : Drive from Sayalonga to the villa is a challenge if you are not a confident driver. It is a good 10/15 minutes on steep, single lane, sometimes dirt tracks. A robust vehicle is a distinct advantage. There are few manuals for the appliances - most were simple to operate but it would have been helpful to have manuals/guides. There were also a lack of cleaning products, bin bags, etc. When asked, the owners said "You need to buy your own." We did. And then took them with us. There were plenty of insects around but, to be honest, they were the most placid bunch who didn't prove to be a nuisance at all. If i'm being picky, a magnificent villa like this could have done with a more modern TV (with instructions!) One last thing - a gripe of mine with villa stays - more coat hangers please! (5 hangers per room is NOT enough for a week's stay!)
