Casa Jacaranda

OMG the views are superb the pictures on the web site do not do it justice. Had a wonderful week in October with the temperature in the 30's. Once again David and Jacqui you have out done yourselves with this villa. The owner did pop round once and left us with fresh mango's which were great. We had breakfast every morning on the upstairs terrace over looking the valley and views of the sea. Great area to explore the little villages and stop off for lunch or a coffee and just people watch. This is our fourth time booking with Vine Ridge Retreats and they have given us the most fabulous villas each time we have booked for what we require. Thank you again David & Jacqui

We stayed at Case Jacaranda for our 5th wedding anniversary 4th - 11th September 2019. Well, where do we start, it truly is a beautiful villa set in a stunning location. Jacaranda had everything we needed, beautiful and clean and 10 out of 10 for bed linen and fluffy towels also the pool was one of the cleanest we have seen. Jose the owner, was a true gentleman although the language barrier was at times a bit amusing! Although he visited us a couple of times with fresh home grown produce ( which were delicious ) he wasn't at all intrusive and would always ring the bell and wait to be met at the gate before entering the grounds. This was our fifth visit to the Comares area, and Jacaranda was by far the best views, we would highly recommend this villa to anyone. We love Comares, places to eat, two great little shops, bank, chemist etc. A big thank you to David and Jacqui, always at the end of the phone to answer our questions. We will definitely be booking with Vine Ridge Retreats again.

Thanks David and Jacqui once again and also José muchas gracias mi amigo, la casa es muy tranquilo. The views are fantastic, a perfect place to relax and enjoy the sun. A lovely villa. We’ve been to this area numerous times, never disappoints. Stunning area and views and a great base to explore the region.

We have just returned after a lovely quiet week at this comfortable villa.
The views are spectacular from the terrace and upstairs balcony with plenty of sun and shade around the pool area.
The kitchen needs a couple of basic things like oven dishes, and some condiments to get you started until you can do a shop.
We would recommend casa Jacaranda as a quiet gated villa not overlooked with easy access from the main road.

Just back home following a ten night stay at Jacaranda. This is the third villa we have booked through David at Vine Ridge Retreats and it didn't disappoint. The villa is immaculate and very well appointed. It has the best views we have experienced in the region yet it's only 5 minutes to Comares and ten to Benarmagosa for all your essentials (if you can tear yoursef away!). We met Jose, the villa owner who was tending his plot below and we were treated to some amazing tomatoes, peppers, aubergines and figs. In the garden there are plenty of lemons and limes for a refreshing gin and tonic. We enjoyed ours on the terrace every evening while drinking in those incredible views. Jacaranda is in a peaceful location and the access from the road is easy. We'll be back!

My husband and I did a winter let at casa jacaranda loved every minute of it. Fantastic views and walks and near to many beautiful towns and villages.

Just home after 2,5 weeks in Casa Jacaranda. We were looking for a peaceful place to relax on our own, and that’s exactly what we found!
The beautiful views and friendly neighbours and the support you always have from David and Jacqui are just some of the reasons for choosing this place.
We are considering coming back again.

Just returned from a wonderful two weeks holiday at Casa Jacaranda. Originally booked to go to Maderia but after the owners decided to sell the villa and cancel our booking we were left with no holiday, we have been to Spain numerous times but not Costa Del Sol, after some searching came across Vine Ridge Retreats.David and Jacqui were so helpful, did everything they could to find a villa that met our family needs. Recommended Casa Jacaranda and I am so glad they did! What an amazing Villa, since the pictures have been taken some work has been done on the outside area and this had opened the whole area up and created some magnificent views. The Villa was very spacious for our family of 4 and also very well equipped. David and Jacqui were very responsive to any questions or issues we had. We did have an issue with fridge not working, David responded to my email immediately and within the hour the owner Araceli was at the house and had an engineer on site an hour later. Araceli took all my frozen goods and stored them in her freezer at home until it was fixed. The owners are a lovely couple, all though they don't speak any English, luckily for us we had our 17 year old son who has quite a good understanding of the language and Google Translator. We will definitely look at returning to the area and will book through Vine Ridge Retreats. Would recommend them and this Villa to anyone.

Après une semaine passée à la villa jacaranda, nous recommandons fortement cette location.
Le descriptif et les photographies du site correspondent en tous points à la réalité.
Dès la réservation, le contact avec David et Jacqui a été très convivial et très réactif (en Français et en Anglais !); le propriétaire est également très sympathique (en Espagnol !).
La villa offre suffisamment d'espace, est bien entretenue et très propre. La piscine et la terrasse sont bien situés; le jardin est bien agréable (les agrumes et avocats...) et l'accès facile. Le petit chemin d'accès ne pose aucun problème en belle saison.
L'équipement est moderne (wifi, electro-ménager ok), la vaisselle également. La literie et le linge de maison fourni sont de belle qualité.
La situation nous convenait parfaitement; un peu isolé pour la tranquillité et la vue superbe au coucher de soleil et en même temps à peu de distance de nos buts de visite (voiture obligatoire).
Comarès est un village très pittoresque et authentique à 4 km.
Le loueur de voiture conseillé par David est tout à fait correct, parle Français et les prix correspondent au devis !
Bref, d'excellentes vacances dans une très belle région Andalouse, nous reviendrons !

Just back from a lovely restful week at Casa Jacaranda - the villa is the third of Vine Ridge Retreats' we have booked, we have loved them all for different reasons but Casa Jacaranda is just out in front for ease of access. It is a hop and a skip from the main road up to Comares (and down to Benamargosa) for shopping or eating out - self catering is easy due to a well equiped kitchen although, as other reviewers have mentioned, a few more items could to be added such as a few more casserole type dishes ( oven to table). We choose the villa to sit back, read, relax and enjoy the view and what a view it is - now that the conifers have been cut down from the poolside, you can see for miles, and there is always something to drag you away from your books, including the eagles which we were lucky enough to see fly overhead - in Sept/Oct I imagine it will be perfect to watch the bird migration. Always have some binoculars to hand. We booked Jacaranda because it had air-con and June can be scorching. David has always told us that on the mountain its not always necessary and here it's true - the mountain breeze keeps it comfortable, however, as the Campo dogs bark across the valleysat night, having the option to close the window and put on the air-con is a welcome bonus. We will definately be booking again and recommend it to anyone wanting a peaceful relaxing away from it all kind of holiday. Thank you David & Jacqui for all your help and many kindnesses. - Yvonne & Nick
