We were travelling as a large group of 13 so good communication was very important and Solmar were excellent in this area. However… we were somewhat disappointed with the villa we stayed in The Mirador Faro which cost us £6000 for the week and therefore we expected good quality accommodation. The general condition of the villa was poor. It needed updating throughout in the main the bathrooms and kitchen which was very small to accommodate so many people. The villa was quite dirty upon arrival. Layers of dust under all furniture and the fridge was filthy obviously it had been missed!The air con units kept breaking down periodically and were black with dirt/mould inside. Porch lights didn’t work. Our pool was freezing ! Outside areas hadn’t been cleaned properly and we stepped over cigarette ends! The bedrooms were basic in the main with poor quality bedding and mattresses! There was just enough crockery and cutlery to accommodate our group size. All in all we had a lovely holiday and tried not to let the poor quality of villa to ruin the holiday but I would never stay here again as it is way over priced for the poor standard of finishing and the kitchen really let’s the property down. Final comment … only one key ! We unfortunately locked ourselves out on one occasion with a sleeping baby inside so there definitely should be a spare key held in key safe.
