Finca El Otero

The owners were really lovely, great hosts. Breakfast was delicious and something to look forward to and we enjoyed the music playing and views from the breakfast room. The evening tapas tray was really great and good portions, we loved it. They noticed it was my birthday and this was really sweet. Peaceful by the pool in the daytime and in the garden areas, we loved the planting and quirky touches in the gardens it was really well done and beautiful. We would definately stay here again if we were in the Alicante region.

I didn’t like the pool cleaning robot being in the pool all the time, the pipe really got in the way of swimming. It would be preferable to leave it running overnight and remove it before breakfast. The dogs nearby barked a lot at certain times of the day, usually afternoon/evening but not while we were actually sleeping. The restaurants and bar in the village weren’t open or had closed really early as they were quiet, it made it hard to plan other meal options. We asked Taza bar in town on our way out for an evening stroll around 6.30 pm at what time they were serving food until and they said it just depended and they couldn’t guarantee opening times. Very friendly bar though with live music on the Sunday night. We ended up staying for a drink then food rather than walking, they did close early and while we were sat there we watched the tapas restaurant nearby close up at 7.15 when google said it should be open till 9 pm, so be aware of this and maybe book a table to make sure they are open for you. It would be really helpful to have a full length mirror in the room and also a small mirror over the desk for when you are getting ready. It would also be nice to have a mini fridge for personal use in the room. These are just little things though, listed in order to be accurate and the good things about this finca more than make up for them.

Our stay at Finca El Otero was absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived Peter & Ernest were so helpful and friendly, Great hosts and very welcoming. Breakfast was one of the highlights for me & also the evening meals were fantastic, all made by Peter in house and we was never disappointed. We booked for 3 nights and was lucky enough to extend our stay for another 3 without issues. The grounds/gardens are beautiful with the views from the rooms over-looking the mountains and ocean, the location is a little remote and a rental car is beneficial if wanting to visit nearby towns & attractions. Ideal stay for cycling, walking or total relaxation. The town Aiguel (5 min walk) is quaint with a traditional feel and general amenities if needed. We had such an amazing time. Ernest & Peter made us feel very much at home during our stay and was happy to help us with recommendations and directions. We will look forward to visiting again.

Peter und Ernest sind zwei aufmerksame Gastgeber, die sich um das Wohl der Gäste sorgen. Zum Geburtstag meines Mannes bekamen wir eine Schokotorte, die wir beim Frühstück mit den anderen Gästen teilten. Das Frühstück wird jeden Tag serviert, es gibt kein Buffet. Auch das Abendessen schmeckt wunderbar.

De rust, de hosts die er alles aan doen zodat je een prettig verblijf hebt, het ontbijt, de rust …
