Any help/recommendations please
Ideally would like 3 bedrooms with access to heated pool
Restaurants and beach within easy distance
Not overly worried re budget
And to be scenic and not crowded and over busy as am mildly agrophobic
Many thanks

Would you consider booking through somewhere like ownersdirect, or are you looking for a package deal?

DarrellRivers · 03/01/2012 22:07

Would be happy to book through ownersdirect, but find a recommendation of some sort helpful

Just back from Lanzarote. Stayed in this resort which was fantastic

5 min walk to beach & shops and restaurants, heated pool & restaurant & mini shop in the resort. We had a 2 bed villa but you they have 3 beds too I think. It was a smallish, tasteful, lovely little seaside town.

Thankyou Novstar, that looks lovely

As Novstar we too have just got back from Las Brisas and have been going for the last 2 years and have been going to playa blanca for 7 years , las brisas is lovely , clean , nice warm pool and a very easy walk to restaurants and shops . we use 2 ladys through owners direct kate brown and tessa rock if you look on owners direct you will see there names , we have stayed in various villas 2/3 bed ones and all have been lovely . We are back there in 4 weeks for my 40th and i cant wait to get back..........

I contacted these people on a recommendation before I found Las Brisas. I gave them my requirements and they sent me their very useful comments and a list of lovely looking villas. In the end I decided to go with Brisas because it had a restaurant and shop on site, but if you're OK with that, may be worth contacting them.

DarrellRivers how did you get on? What did you decide to go for in the end?
My requirements are almost exactly the same as yours but I haven't booked yet. Not many houses left for the week we want.

If you are looking for Tenerife this lot HolidayHomes have plenty available and they seem to have the most interesting homes available

DarrellRivers · 21/01/2012 12:07

Still looking but running out of energy
I have got my summer hols booked so feeling less bothered re Easter sunshine
Plus I have a DH who thinks we can find a perfectly wonderful villa somewhere in fabulous unspoilt sunshine for that week for less than I can. When he has no time to search.
We shall see how he gets on (evil laugh)
I may well book for next year, this year

Check out the island of La Gomera. It's absolutely beautiful and totally different to Tenerife or Gran Canaria (it's much greener).

Was there so long ago that I can't help with any accommodation tips, etc.
Sorry.
