This spacious villa in Vale de Parra is spread across two floors and split into two separate apartments – each fully furnished with bedrooms, bathrooms, a kitchen, and a living room. There is air conditioning and wifi throughout the villa – although there is no dedicated office, there are surfaces that can double up as laptop-friendly workspaces. The decor is a little dated but the vibrant outdoor area makes up for this with a large private saltwater swimming pool and plenty of space to relax in. Guests can play a game of table tennis in the shade of the parasol before firing up the brick-built BBQ for some alfresco dining. There's a big supermarket nearby, as well as other local amenities within walking distance.
