Villas Blancas Reviews

First of all don't purchase the shuttle that Expedia offer you from the airport to these villas because you will receive an email after you've made the purchase saying that they don't go there and offering you a refund. Not much help when you've already booked on the basis a shuttle is available from the airport (32kms away and approx. €50 in a taxi!). Secondly the code I was given to access the keys for the villa was incorrect and there is no one on-site to assist. It's assumed you have a phone and an emergency number is given which I called and was told the handyman was on-site and would come over to help. He did and tapped in a different code and we got our keys. Lastly, the villa is large, fairly well equipped and clean. However it would have made a big difference had there been a welcome pack for the kitchen and some local brochures/maps or at least letting you know where the supermarket is. Nothing like this is available and given that the complex the villa is in is quite large and out of town (approx. 3km) it's not very welcoming.

Die Häuser sind gut ausgestattet, die Abwicklung( Schlüsselcode, Zugangsberechtigung, WLAN-Schlüssel ) völlig problemlos, die Maklerin war immer telefonisch erreichbar. Unsere Villa ( Nr. 46 ) war leider an der Aussenmauer und der Straßenlärm zu hören. Die Straße war nachts aber ruhig , also hat dies beim schlafen nicht gestört. Leider ist Playa Blanca eine völlig zersiedelte Retorten-Stadt, absolut nicht unsere Art Urlaub zu machen, aber das hat ja mit dem Haus nichts zu tun. Man hat ja den Mietwagen um an die schönen Papagayo-Strände zu kommen. Hier haben wir Mitte November noch in dem kristallklaren Wasser sehr gut baden und Schwimmen können !
