"Hello Nigel and Donna,Thank you very much for the loan of your apartment for the last two weeks. It was prefect, a real home from home.
The weather for the first few days was a bit hit and miss but it soon cleared up and we could laze on the beach most days!!!
You didn't mention in your notes of the apartment where to leave the keys, however, we left them on the sideboard just in front of the clock. I hope that this was OK as we knew that Ian would have keys anyway.
Thanks once again.
Regards"

"Hi Nigel, We had a really relaxing time in the appartment, and found the walk down to the village centre kept us on our toes. Although we didn`t use the pool it was nice to sit on the balcony and watch the activities. Their was no noise at all and we felt at home. Thanks for the opportunity for spending two weeks in your home.By all means use my Email of satisfaction on your Webb site, of course we will keep your details for future use."
A few words from Mr & Mrs C.Thomas, May 2009
"Hi Nigel +Donna. Had a great holiday in your clean, comfortable and spacious Pad. The complex was quiet and peaceful with superb views from balcony. We did not use management services, although Sheila kindly rescued us when we locked ourselves out on the balcony! As walkers the only drawback was having to travel to the bus station at Los Cristianos and change to the appropriate bus. We will return at some stage in the near future."
A few words from Mary & Bruce, March 2009
"Dear Nigel and Donna
Just a note to say how much we all enjoyed our stay in your lovely apartment. For most of the time we felt as if we had a private pool as we were the only ones down there. The complex is very well looked after and virtually every day people were around either cleaning or repairing.
One little breakage to report - I broke a teacup.
Thanks again for an enjoyable time.
Kind regards

"Hi Nigel and Donna
We had a lovely holiday but all too short before we are back to the cold! On many days we had wall to wall sunshine, no rain throughout the holiday, 19/20/21 degrees - fantastic. Your apartment was ideal. Clean, well furnished and facing the sea with sun from 10.00 till sunset on those balconies - sat and watched some fantastic sunsets. Even the walk back up the hill meant you felt you were doing something healthy.
The management company that you use (Ian and Sheila) were fine. We met them at the apartment at the appointed time and they showed us round - where things were etc. The apartment was clean and all the things we expected to be there were there. We had their phone numbers but had no need to contact until end of our visit when we checked with them what to do with the keys.
We did not use the transfer service as we had hired an Autoreisen car which we picked up at the airport. The car was reasonable and good value.
We will certainly recommend you to friends.
Regards
JC

"Hi Donna,We both had a fantastic time and did not want to come home,we even thought about staying longer.The appartment was great,but we did have a few problems to start with. One of these was the TV.We lost reception for about two weeks overall.This was due to bad weather/upgrade required on the sat box. Also we lost water pressure twice.
.The appartment was well cleaned before departure. Would love to come back again.Thank You,Roy and Chris"
A few words from Roy Freestone, January 2009
"Having never been to Tenerife before I was very pleasantly surprised with the meet and greet service. We were picked up at the airport and on our journey to the apartment were given a 'run down' on all the things we needed to know. The apartment was spotless and very comfortable I would definatly recommend it to everyone."

"Dear Donna and Nigel, We had a wonderful two weeks at the apartment. It was just as we pictured it and the views were just as advertised on the website. The weather was great and so we spent a lot of time down by the pool. It was a great surprise too to find there was a table tennis table and darts(out of the sun) for the children to enjoy too and those things really added to our holiday experience there. The apartment was lovely, the complex was so well kept and was also very quiet so that sometimes we were the only ones enjoying the pool(absolutely no worry about fighting for sunbeds!). We did eventually feel the need for a car. Because we have been to Tenerife several times, we didn't feel the need to visit too many places but we did want transport in the evenings if we wanted to go somewhere a bit more lively. But that was the beauty of the apartment we could have the best of both worlds. The village was fine to walk down to but a bit of a trek back up,especially with shopping and particularly as it was so hot. But we tried to time it when it was a bit cooler in the evenings and then it wasn't so bad.
We had a great time and were very appreciative of your flexibility, especially with flight times etc and so being able to be in the apartment until the last minute was a huge advantage. Thank you very much for opening up the apartment for hire. We loved it and have very good memories of a special time spent there."

"Dear Donna and Nigel,
Everything was fine with the apartment. Very comfortable, quiet and clean. We hired a car for the week which was great as it saved our feet carrying shopping back and also was good in the day when we visited Hotel Tropical park. Weather was ok. No real rain (just a little mist when we went to a town in the north), cloudy at times but still warm and certainly a lot better than England.
Will also be a great bonus when the sky is set up especially when the weather isn't sunny.
We would like to hire the apartment again sometime if possible so will keep in contact - hope we left everything in good order - please let us know if there was any problems.
Many, many thanks. We feel very jealous that you own such a lovely place and felt very at home.
Best regards
Alison and Erich (& Claire and Jonathan)"

"Hello Donna and Nigel.
Thank you so very much for the use of the apt for the last few days of our holiday. Got home today and thought we would like to thank you immediately as it was so lovely. Thanks for the extra bed, Maisie slept in there all night (which is rare). The surroundings are beautiful and the earthy colours of the buildings with the blue of the pool looked beautiful. Let us know when the baby pool will be ready as we will be looking to come back at some time later in the year! Thanks again for a clean home from home.

"Hi Donna,
Yes, everything was great, lovely apartment and I would recommend it to anybody no problem. Lovely furniture and DVD player was ideal for a cosy night with the kids and ice cream after a busy day - thanks. Very tidy and the small welcome pack was appreciated. No mozzy bites at all!!
Some feedback:
• I don't think your websites (Owners direct and your own) do it justice, maybe you should include a few more photos, from different angles - very spacious and lovely views.
• Why did I book it? - The weather, the pool, the balconies, the price, quiet area (children) away from the union jack shorts areas! But close enough to all the main beaches with a car (we found Playa de la vistas to be the nicest). Also the flexible start date, as the cost of flights is by far the largest part of the budget. I automatically ignored the ones that had fixed changeover days. The resort was quite nice and we ate out there 5 times. We hired a car which I would recommend to get the best out of the time there- I used Autoreisen which only cost 115 euros for 10 days for an air con 5 door Seat Ibiza. Another plus point was the fact that you returned my emails and phone calls promptly, sounds obvious but most others didn’t bother.
• We left some buckets and spades, it may be worth putting them on as info -small point but I think I would have noticed that on the write up
• There was a bit of noise with it being fairly close to the road, but as it was the children’s back bedroom it didn't really matter.
• Maybe a sketch map of the apartment location would be handy – just from the Callao Salvaje roundabout. Also instructions on where to empty your bin
• The only down side would be the lack of air conditioning in the summer, and maybe a slightly bigger TV
There was a small leak from the cold water inlet pipe on the bidet, I turned it off when I arrived, then tried it again later on and it seemed to have stopped
I’d certainly book the apartment again if I was going back to Tenerife; I think I’d be hard pushed to find somewhere else such good value for money. Streets ahead of any package deal. Please feel free to use any of the comments, I’d happily substantiate them.
Thanks very much
Nigel Lynch

""Thank you so much for the use of your apartment. We had a fantastic holiday. The location was great in the middle of everywhere we wanted to go, our highlight was a trip to Masca.
Your apartment was home from home we could not believe that your furniture is actually the same as we have at home the Hudson range from next.
We will forward the keys to yourselves by registered post tomorrow.
Again many thanks, we did leave it as we found it immaculate, and hope you may allow us to hire it again in the future." "
