  • August 2009  The family had an awesome stay in Turquesa.  A wonderful location with the beach a short way away and the amazing pool very near at hand.The facilities at the house were great, perfect for a family with many children (e.g. bikes, movies).  The table on the front side of Turquesa is amazing and it's wonderful sitting there watching the sunset and eating fruit.  Brambles Bar down the road has great fish and chips. The whole neighbourhood is great, all of the people we've met are very friendly.  The place along the beach where you can hire boats is very good, recommended heartily.  Thank you from a family from Holland.
  • August 2009  We have all had a really wonderful fortnight here at Turquesa.  We've had breakfasts and lunches on the front terrace with lovely views of the Mar Menor and flamingos and spent most of our days relaxing and laying around the pool.  The villa was exactly what we wanted and so well equipped we have felt at home here.  We've eaten out every evening and found some lovely restaurants.  The location here is so ideal, nice and quiet, but close enough to everything we needed.  We'll definitely recommend the villa to friends and family and have had a truly amazing time.  We don't want to go home! Thank you Chris and Beryl and Mark and Sandra.  From the Gotts and Francomes from Huddersfild and Birmingham.
  • September 2009 We had an excellent holiday!!!  This villa is very comfortable and has an excellent location between Cartagena and Murcia and near the sea and beach.  So, during our holiday, we had trips to Murcia (a very beautiful city) and Cartagena. On the beach we had a happy time. Very, very, very thank you owners of the villa for brilliant holiday.  We like Spain!!!  from a family of Russian cool people!!!
  • August 2008 We have had a wonderful week, but we wish we'd booked two. We are looking forward to coming back next year.  The house is perfect many thanks to Chris and Beryl for providing everything anyone could possibly need.

  • July 2005  Zafiro  Descriptions should usually be taken with a pinch of salt, but at Zafiro with so much salt around, it wasn't necessary to take even a grain of it. From the directions and advice before we arrived and the welcoming arrangements, to all the information and facilities here, the descriptions did no justice at all.  Thank you for putting so much thought into making Zafiro such a lovely place.
