Geres-Zen - Paradise - AL / 9964

Really helpful check in - good WhatsApp communication with Antonio which I think was needed as it is a little hard to find independently.Really relaxed and friendly owners who were obviously proud of their house (and rightly so). The important details (WiFi etc) covered as well as a tour Some of the small details were taken care off for you - for example, pool was cleaned early each morning and bin/rubbish was emptied so - just made it easier and more relaxedKitchen was good - lots of crockery and cutlery, knives, pans, etc. and the oven cooked better than our one at home(!) dishwasher was large and even the long cycle was fast - I know these details may seem small but it’s all these 1%’s that add up to a great stay. If you are a coffee pod fan, there is a Nespresso machine in the kitchenTwo small supermarkets in the village - it’s a 12 minute walk down the hill, back up was 14 minutes but there is a really steep section. You can drive if you prefer but parking was variable so sometimes walking was easier. Supermarkets open 0730 to 2000 for 7 daysReally really quiet and relaxing area. Lake beach is 10 minutes away, national park and Spanish border about 25 minutes - several waterfalls to see and incredible views everywhere We don’t go back to the same place on holiday as the world is so large, but this is one stay where we were talking about returning before we left - it was that good

Beautiful secluded house in the mountains. Stunning pool surrounded by flowers and the forested hills. The house is chic in a vintage modernist style, something that the kind owners are clearly proud of and happy to share with guests. It was a good space for our party of 6 and happy times spent exploring the Parc de Geres with lakes and waterfalls. Air con worked very well when needed, the kitchen is well equipped and several spaces to sit for dining and around the house. The theme of a 'Zen" space is very appropriate; we all felt calm and peaceful in this lovely spot, and dropped down to the small town often ( especially to visit the extraordinary Hotel Universal like something from a 1950s film!)Just a note for any guests with mobility issues - the glorious pool is accessed by a steepish slope up the rear garden.A very happy vacation spent here. Thank you to Antonio and his wife.

Excellent An amazing property with fabulous hosts. We loved our stay here, the house is in a truly beautiful and convenient location. Peaceful and well appointed. Antonio and his lovely wife were super responsive. Can’t wait to go back.

Wonderful holiday We had a fabulous 12 nights in Geres. The house is perfectly situated with Mountain Views. Well equipped and spotlessly clean with a wonderful pool area. So many places to sit and relax and take in the tranquility. Geres has everything you need and kept two teenagers happy also. Antonio and his wife greeted us and showed us around the house and made us feel very welcomed. We would love to return.
