Easy Booking online, and excellent online communication via chat, very helpful. We are very much looking forward to our Villa Stay in 2027.
We were reluctant to book with James Villas. It was early January 2026 and JV started to reappear in our searches for a summer holiday. I'd thought JV had gone, but there it was. Lots of properti... See more

False advertising of villa
False advertising of villa, pool and features. Complaint not dealt with reasonably.
Pool advertised as 10 metres long- was just under 8 metres. No poolside shower as advertised. No pool heating as advertised. No bath in ensuite (or entire villa) as advertised. 'Breakfast bar' was actually just a high worktop in the kitchen with no seating provided so fine as long as you eat standing up. Patio doors' to terrace was not a patio door just a normal width, solid front door happening to open onto that side of the house. Tables dirty, pool table and table tennis broken and not fit for purpose. House not all one level- several internal steps. Kitchen sink drainer cracked and unhygienic.
Complaint team said we should have notified them whilst at the villa so they could rectify the issues- what come and elongate the pool by 2 metres and pop a bath and pool shower in??? Offered £45 for £760 holiday compensation
As you can see from the James villa reply- they still think offering a service in villa is going to sort a pool being 2 metres shorter than advertised and missing facilities such as a bath / poolside shower???? Beyond belief.

Everything happened as promised!
From the easy booking experience, first on the website and then on the James Villa app, to the regular contact and details ahead of arrival and being in situ, everything was as stated and meant we had a hassle-free vacation. First time using James Villa’s and we’ve already made another booking using them!

Excellent villa
Excellent villa, well equipped perfect for 2 families. Perfect location quiet up in the hills but a 10-15 Minute walk to the sea front and restaurants. Best pool ever had. Villa backs onto a lemon orchard with a horse who visits. Loved it will be coming back here. (not for you if you want to go clubbing)
