Poolvilla Rancho Domingo familienfreundlich, Benalmádena, Spanien

A fabulous villa, ideal for a relaxing family holiday by the pool and everything a short drive away. Arriving late evening, initially I was worried by the labyrinth of tiny, winding Old Town streets, at the very end, the driveway to our villa. Got the A/C on and was soon enjoying an evening swim. Villa is very well equipped, well laid out and very comfortable. Masses of space and storage. The grounds of the villa are stellar. Loads of loungers, seating, even pool toys tucked away in the laundry room. The excellent pool is bigger than the photos make it look. My wife and I enjoyed many lengths in there and our three sons enjoyed it pretty much every day (July '23 heatwave hitting over 40°C). Tiny gripe - there are two great double rooms, a spacious single plus pull-out family room and a box room but the box room lacks A/C which was a short straw for one of my boys. Luckily the villa also had freestanding fans. Finally, the TV is way too small for a movie night (owners please upgrade). Location is right on the edge of the beautiful Benalmádena Old Town. Some great local restaurants, less busy than the tourist heavy coastal resorts, though they are all accessible within 15 minutes driving. We had plans of walking more but the heat was unbearable and the hills are...very hilly! Car essential. Seriously though, this villa exceeded my expectations on most fronts and is a five star venue.
