Las Encinillas

We have stayed here twice in this Villa and visited Comares three times. The Villa is so well equipped and homely.
David and Jacqui are always there to help if any issues.
The local restaurants are superb. Here for the Feria which has been amazing too.
The evenings on the balcony are incredible with the sunset and the mountain goats passing by.
Comares is a 15 minute walk away and all you need is there. Great little shop and staff.
Velez Malaga and Nerja are only 45/60 mins drive away. Comares has it all.
Thank you David and Jacqui.
Will be back.

We stayed for 8 nights at the end of May and were not disappointed. The Villa is furnished in the more traditional style but has everything that you need and was spotlessly clean. It is very easy to find and although it’s on the edge of the village it’s very private and the pool is not over looked. We had 4 boys with us aged 7-11 and there was a fantastic 5 aside football pitch and basket ball court a couple of minutes walk away, on an evening the boys arranged football matches with the local children which was so nice to see and the language was not a barrier, the plus for the parents was there is a nice little bar at the end so you can sit and watch your kids while having very reasonably priced drinks (beer or wine €2 each). We had lunch and drinks in the village square, the shop is well stocked. We had days out at the beach in Nerja and the shopping centre at Velez-Malaga has a very good selection of shops. When we arrived the internet had been knocked out in a storm but David arranged it to be fixed very quickly. We love this area of Spain and tend to stay in the less touristy villages slightly inland, hopefully we will be back.

3rd visit to this villa and won’t be our last! Love the villa and the pool and the views are amazing. The local bars and restaurants are great value and very friendly. David and Jacqui are the best hosts especially when we locked ourselves out 20 minutes after getting there!!

Had the most wonderful two weeks in this beautiful villa. Spotlessly clean and immaculate. Probably the best equipped place I’ve ever stayed in. Lovely walk up the village , two restaurants across the road and views to swoon over. Was lucky enough to meet David and Jacqui who are the loveliest couple . If I had a query, it was answered very quickly. Excellent customer service and a joy to deal with. The peace and quiet here is very welcome as is the beautiful pool. A real getaway from busy life . Highly recommend. Thankyou so much!

Second stay at this great villa and we all loved it!! The house has everything you need, the pool is fabulous. Gentle stroll up to the village, watching the birds and a few beers at the top.
David and Jacqui are excellent hosts - we would highly recommend this villa and Vine Ridge retreats!

Las Encinillas.What can we say?An amazing older style villa which is fully equipped for a self catering holiday.We had four weeks in this lovely villa.Although being on the road to the village it is very quiet and peacefull. The pool, being walled in is not over looked and very private.
Many thanks to David and Jacqui for another great holiday.

My 2nd time staying at this beautiful villa and myself and boyfriend will most certainly be back. Ideally located with beautiful mountain views. This villa is close to the Atalaya restaurant, sports bar, table mountain restaurant and the village of comares, with adequately fitted supermarket. The amazing taxi drivers will take you on a short trip to the beach at a reasonable cost, so if like myself you don't want to drive there really is no need. The villa is perfectly designed, cool with beautiful bedrooms and bathrooms, fully fitted kitchen, bbq and stunning pool. I absolutely love this place

Second winter spent in this amazing villa.
Once again couldn’t recommend it enough, it was spotless as usual and had everything we could possibly need.
The pool and pool deck are lovely and a great place to while away a lovely sunny afternoon. The villa owner comes every weekend to tend to the garden and pool, he is a lovely man and not in any way intrusive.
The views from the villa are spectacular and it is very well situated with 2 bar restaurants very close, both serving great food.
A walk up to the village ( down hill coming back) you have a further 4 bar/ restaurants including the very quaint hotel which used to be an olive mill and still has all the machinery in situ.
Comares itself is an authentic Spanish village and a wander round the narrow, winding streets is a must.
The shop in the village is very well stocked and competitively priced including fresh bread, meats, fruit and veg etc. There is also a bakers, bank and tobacconist in the village.
David and Jacqui from vine ridge are lovely people who go the extra mile to ensure you have a wonderful holiday experience.
We will be back !!

We stayed at this large family sized Casa for 5 days and it is great for large groups for its sheer size!!...there are 2 restaurants close by and it is about a 10 to 15 minute walk to Comares...

There is a gated swimming pool and a large balcony for you to sit at amd watch the world go by....large kitchen and 2 bathrooms we almost got lost here as there was only the pair of us staying!!

Again the service from David and Jacqui who picked us up to take us back to the airport was fantastic....

Rural Spain at it's best with Vine Ridge Retreats!!

This is a fabulous villa and the holiday was everything we needed!! The villa is spacious, spotless and has everything you need in the villa and in walking distance. The pool is fantastic and the village is lovely. We were there for the fiesta which was a really great weekend of drinking and eating and watching the flamenco dancers and the horses. The best thing though is the service David and Jacqui provide they tucked all the boxes I asked for and were super helpfully I will definitely return to Comares and to Vine Ridge Retreats. ????????????????
