Not a relaxing vacation…
Villa Maydell is a very nice property, well equipped & comfortable. The pool was clean & well maintained by Roy who is an absolute GEM! The villa sits in well established & secluded grounds, ideally situated for visiting the local area & a short distance from Albox town. However, for all its plus’s, Villa Maydell has an extremely busy main road & junction running directly alongside the rear of the property; the immediate neighbour appears to run a ‘builder’s business’ from his property, with heavy plant machinery belching diesel fumes everywhere & moving building materials on a regular basis. So we had the constant road noise, the added builder’s business noise plus we also had the immediate neighbour’s dogs that would bark at anytime of the ‘day or night’ for up to 2 hours at a time… as a result of all this we had to sleep with the windows shut and the shutters down all the time, in order to try to get ‘some sleep’. Villa Maydell is not situated in a ‘peaceful hamlet’ as advertised.

Upon arrival, we had to redo the dishes, because a lot of plates, forks, etc were a bit greasy. But ampart form that: all was more than well. Wonderful house, great surroudings, lots to do and to visit in Almeria Province.

Casa Maydell - Relax
Casa Maydell is relaxing, well equipped and perfectly situated. Very simple check in with minimal disruption throughout our stay. There are plenty of amenities close by whilst still maintaining a good separation from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. A beautiful, clean and modern villa which is comfortably equipped for the rare rainy days. We had a fantastic, relaxing stay and wholeheartedly recommend this property. We would gladly go here again.

Nice roomy property
The house is bigger than equivalent properties in Spain. It has all the necessary appliances in the kitchen. We appreciated the conservatory and the chimney, which make the house confortable in winter. You have to be aware that you cannot put paper or anything in the toilet though...

Three weeks in Casa Maydell, Albox
We all enjoyed our stay at the Casa Maydell, an ideal base for exploring the Albox, Cantoria and Arboleas area as well as relatively easy access to the coast for Mojacar, Garrucha and Vera. Bill and Jason Maydell have been extremely accessible and helpful hosts, responding quickly yo any queries which was very helpful. It was also a pleasure to meet Roy each Thursday who maintains the swimming pool to a high standard. We would have no hesitation in recommending the Casa Maydell to family and friends.

Perfect!
We finally managed to have our 2 weeks at Casa Maydell in early June 2021. Originally booked in January 2020, for June 2020, we found Bill to be extremely accommodating when we had to rearrange several times due to Covid restrictions, not only did he offer a full refund if we wanted to cancel, or allowing changes of dates free of charge, but also ensuring we wouldn’t lose out through exchange rate fluctuations. A first class host! We found the villa with no problems, using the coordinates provided and accessed the property with ease, thanks to the very clear instructions. The property was spotlessly clean and fully equipped for our stay, with a lovely ‘welcome basket’ of food & drink. Neme arrived a few minutes after we did and explained everything we needed to know, making us feel very welcome. The villa is tranquil without being isolated or overlooked and the pool area is private with plenty space for sunbathing. The shaded pergola was ideal for outside dining and the conservatory was perfect for watching the occasional thunderstorm! The property is perfectly situated only a few minutes drive from Albox, where all amenities can be found. All in all we had a lovely time at Casa Maydell and wholeheartedly recommend it.

Home away from home
Word of advice - use the directions provided by the owner and not Google maps! Perfect base for exploring Albox, Vera, Mojaca etc. Great communication with owner and some lovely, VERY helpful other contacts who also helped us. The ‘front room’ area is brilliant and makes you feel particularly at home with English TV etc. All rules/instructions/guides all very easy to use. Essentially, if you treat the villa with the same respect you would your own home, you won’t have any issues. The rooster nearby is ‘vocal’ but I found it quite charming!

A Great Villa
We were greeted with a warm welcome when we arrived at this villa, which was just the right start for the very enjoyable fortnight we spent there. It's spotlessly clean, fully equipped and in a great location. We were pleasantly surprised by how cool it was inside compared to villas we've stayed at previously, thanks to the light breeze that can be encouraged through with the doors and windows open. Due to having two young children, we were pleased to find the garden very securely fenced and gated. The villa also benefits from an intruder alarm and has CCTV on the periphery, which was reassuring when were out. Merilyn is a superb host and very professional. She was always quick to respond to any questions we had and made sure we had a great time at her fantastic villa. Thanks, Louise, Robert and the two children

Fantastic villa, lovely pool, with everything you could need
We had a lovely relaxing couple of weeks here. A beautiful villa in a fantastic secluded location. A great swimming pool and beautiful surrounding gardens. Short drive to local amenities. Lisa met us at the property and showed us round even though we were late. Would recommend this villa, and Merilyn was a pleasure to deal with. Quick response to communications.

Cosy, welcoming and homely
This was our first family holiday abroad with our 5 year old daughter and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The villa was lovely and clean, beds were comfy, it had any appliance you could need especially in the kitchen. The air con was a god send and worked perfectly, we had no issues with our stay in the house. The pool was definitely a favourite for our 5 year old, we couldn't keep her out of it. It was lovely and cooling during the hot days and was a really good size for the 3 of us. The lights at night made it extra pretty!! The owners have done a brilliant job at making this a home for everyone to enjoy. Lisa, the lady who we dealt with in Spain, was really nice, was there if we needed her and made you feel welcome which is just what you need after travelling so thank you to her. A big thank you to Merilyn for all her help and for letting us stay in her home. Merilyn was amazing and would always reply within a day if not quicker, she's very lovely to talk to and I'm glad we got to speak to her on the phone rather than just over an email, she was very professional and bubbly. Thank you again.

Amazing villa with beautiful views!
We were amazed at how large and spacious this villa was when we arrived. The children were very happy with the pool and I loved the privacy we had and total seclusion. It is just what we wanted for our holiday, gorgeous sunsets, bbq and plenty of interesting little areas to sit out if you can stand the heat! You can drive to the coast quite easily in just under an hour. Everything you need is here in Merilyn's beautiful home, thank you for your help in making it a pleasant stay for us!

Lovely Villa in the Albox countryside
Firstly the villa was lovely and clean , well furnished with a very well equipped kitchen, beautiful safe pool & pretty garden. We found the property easily and met with Lisa, who was very helpful and gave us a welcome pack from Merilyn,which was a nice touch. There were a few things that could be improved such as less personal knicknacks (had to remove quite few before I could let my 16month Grand daughter run free) The 3rd bedroom was far too hot to sleep in with only a fan and more floor standing fans would have been nice with maybe a sheet under the duvets for really hot nights which we had a lot of. We couldn't find any instructions for the tv (other appliances did have info) there didn't seem to be many channels to watch,we took dvds and weren't indoors much anyway so it wasn't a problem. These next 2 items I appreciate the owners can't be responsible for but we couldn't eat outside as we were plagued with wasps and most nights were disturbed by dogs in the neighbouring villas howling,at 2-3 am. We really enjoyed our stay especially having our own pool, ideal for a family holiday and only 45 mins from the beautiful beaches of Mojacar, well worth a visit. and Albox is lovely ,great market on Tuesday days. Hope this review is helpful for both the owner and future travellers

Wonderful
We spent a lovely week at Casa Maydell which is very well equipped,totally private with a great gated pool which is very handy should you have youngsters.The town of Albox is a very easy short drive and Arboleas is is just a further few kilometres on so if you haven't been to the area before and driven you will find it very easy. The pagoda by the side of the pool offers a great place to sit outside and eat or just to unwind and read a book. Overall we had a great week with just one regret that we didn't stay for 2weeks
