Fab!

As a frequent visitor to Villa Minerva, we had another fantastic holiday in April. Soo-Mi providing all the details we need for check-in and our booking, and with a new villa management team, there are some great improvements and now a very welcome Welcome Pack on arrival! Cracking views and pool, and a clean and comfortable villa make for a fantastic holiday. Thanks again Soo-Mi.

Villa Minerva

As always we had a great time in Lanzarote and will plan to go there next year. However I don't think we will stay at Villa Minerva again. This villa is described as "luxury" which I am sure it was once, but now it is rather tired and in need of some TLC/updating and a very good clear out and thorough clean. On the plus side the TV and internet were very good and the heated pool was great.

Fantastic break at Villa Minerva

Just back from our first stay at Villa Minerva. The villa was fantastically presented by the property managers. There was a welcome pack in the fridge and everywhere was clean and tidy. The villa contained everything we needed for our stay with the added bonus of a private heated swimming pool. I would recommend hiring a car but there is a local frequent and well used bus service leaving close by from Calle Irlande. The villa is within 10 to 15 minutes walk from some of the best restaurants in Playa Blanca and also a small selection of bars and coffee places. We had a great value break and Villa Minerva is a credit to the owners and managers. I would have no problem recommending a stay at Villa Minerva to anyone.

Disappointing

Very calm peaceful surrounding. The Sea can be seen, however obstructed Boy numerous neigbour plants in the Front and a car in the back. Definiteley not „stunning“. The door of the so called dining room has been critisized one year ago and still can hardly be opened. Nobody cares. It was raining through a leaking roof! Sofas and beds are pretty worn out. This is by no means a „luxurious Villa“. A clean and well taken care of pool is surrounded by damaged floor tiles, dangerous to Walk barefoot.

Relaxing Break

The villa is located in a quiet part of faro park close to the coast. Well equipped with everything you will need for self catering holiday. Bed was comfortable, all UK television channels available, comfortable lounge. Pool was at a nice temperature. A few bars and restaurants a few minutes walk away. A car would be useful but not essential Very good value for money. Would definitely return.

Suited our needs but not luxury

We've been holidaying in Playa Blanca for over 20 years and as always had a wonderful time. This was a last minute holiday booked within 2 weeks of departure, so not a lot of choice of villas left on Faro Park. This one is described as a Luxury villa, however, I think the word 'Luxury' in the description no longer applies. On opening the door on arrival, the villa smelt clean. The surfaces were clean, as was the bedding and towels provided. The double bed was comfy and we were asked to strip the bed on leaving, which I hate doing as I'd rather not look at what I've been sleeping on in any great detail. However, I was pleasantly surprised as everything was spotless. The over bath shower had good power and plenty of hot water. The internet was good as was the temperature of the pool. On the downside, everything is and looks tired. The bits that mattered most to us were; The patio doors are just hanging in there with a lot of damage at the bottom which makes them hard to open. The sofas have been well used and are now very uncomfortable. The enamel is chipped on the bath and the shower caddy is rusty. The mosquito nets have come away from the main bedroom window and you can see the many failed attempts at sticking them back. The pool cover is shredding away at the edges and come the end of the week the pool is filled with small pieces of micro plastic. Having said this, the villa is still a good base for a holiday, but not somewhere luxury to chill and relax.

Lovely to stay here again. Booking all very straightforward with Soo-Mi, and thanks again to Ann and Ted for their help. Some great meals out in Port of Call and Gusto’s. Smashing neighbours rounded off our holiday. We look forward to staying again in the future.

Enjoyable stay

Good communication prior to arrival from Soo-mi with arrival instructions/directions and some recommendations to visit. Villa is in on lovely well maintained estate and has everything you need. Linen was changed half was through our stay by lovely couple Ann and Ted who have lived on the complex for 20 years. Private pool is a real bonus. Really enjoyed our stay and the location with morning walks along the costal path into town. Would stay again.

Nice stay at Villa Minerva

Easy to book through Vrbo, good communication with Su-Mi. Easy to find from the Airport with directions given. Property is in a lovely location, 5 mins walk from the coastal walk. Nearest beach is Playa Montana Roja which is 3 mins drive, approx. 15 minutes walk, along the road, behind Monica Palace Hotel, it's very small, but very quaint with a beach bar/restaurant. The villa is very nice but a little tired & could do with a bit of TLC. Some of the external doors are a little hard to open & close & could do with replacing. However, there is everything you could possibly want, heated swimming pool, lilo, games & toys for kids, including a smart TV, dishwasher & washing machine. There are a couple of mini supermarkets 10 minutes walk away, along with a few restaurants, a sports bar & lounge bar. Playa Blanca is approx. 10 mins drive away with free parking. Really is a lovely location, but you do really need a car. We had a lovely relaxing holiday, thank you 😁.

Everything about our stay was excellent. Very clean and comfortable. Villa has gorgeous sea views, the pool is lovely and warm and accommodation is great all round. If you self cater, kitchen is really well stocked for cooking and there are a couple of supermarkets within a short walk and if you wish to eat out, there is lots of restaurants to choose from within 10 mins or less walk. There is also a bus that takes you into town for €1.40 within a short walk. All in all, a very enjoyable stay in a lovely villa, on a lovely peaceful estate. Would stay again.

Perfect location

We were very fortunate to spend one month at the villa. Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived. The taxi company met us at the airport (first minute transfers), great staff and a lovely drive to Playa Blanca and Faro Park. The location is perfect, the villa management team were very helpful and our next door neighbours were an added bonus, as they were very helpful and pleasant throughout our stay. Overall the holiday was excellent value for money.

Sehr schönes Ferienhaus mit Pool

Das Haus ist sehr gut geeignet für vier Personen. Ein Highlight ist der sehr schöne Pool. Auch sonst ist das Haus gut ausgerüstet. Man merkt es der Einrichtung an, dass sie in die Jahre gekommen ist. Aber die Funktionen der Einrichtung sind alle einwandfrei. Sehr positiv ist die ruhige Lage, gleichzeitig hat man aber auch alle wichtigen Einkaufsmöglichkeiten (zu Fuß erreichbar) und Restaurants (auch Mitnahme oder Lieferservice). Baden ist in näherer Umgebung nicht möglich. Schöne Strände sind mit dem Auto in ca. 10 Minuten erreichbar.

Great property in a fantastic location

We had 5 nights here and it was perfect for us. Loved the pool and the location. Able to walk in less than 10mins to the local supermarkets and restaurants and bus stop, and also able to walk around the coast to the lighthouse and north to the natural swimming pools, and to Mount Roja where we started one day with a lovely sunrise. We loved our stay and hopefully will be able to go back again.
