Quick and easy to use website to book. Good quick response received
This is the third time I have booked with Solmar and the service is excellent. Always very helpful.
Easy to navigate site, view options and book. Confirmation and follow up communications, with information, points of contact and support are very clear and reassuring.
Looked initially on the Solmar website, and then spoke to Ange on the phone. She was very knowledgeable and helpful, and a great asset to the company.
We wanted a complete package, including flights and hire car, and Eleanor from their customer service team went out of her way to get everything just the way we wanted. Fantastic service. We've been with Solmar before and found them to be very efficient so chose them again this time.
I just booked online it was very easy and straightforward I have booked several times with Solmar villa's and have been really pleased with all my bookings I would highly recommend them
Exemplary service from the entire team. So focussed on the customer experience and ensuring that everything is perfect.
The personal service from Kristal was superb. I know I've come to expect this from Solmar, but it is always so appreciated. Keep up the great work and thank you.
Efficient, polite just needs to make small print bigger for overall a good service.
Victoria agent who I spoke with was excellent and very helpful in getting us the right location and villa.
Simple to book and immediate contact to offer further assistance with any extras such as flights ,car hire ,transfers ,etc . Concierge service to help and deal with any queries you may have with your future trip . Overall Solmar appear to be a quality company with the services offered so far . Top marks .
Managed to speak to someone quickly and they emailed information promptly and had listened to what I needed so service was good.. spoke to someone different the next day and all the information had been recorded so the conversation was easy . Biggest benefit was talking to a real person and not having to navigate lots of AI conversations /options .
The phone is answered quickly, staff are polite, helpful and knowledgeable. If you have a query they are always happy to help or sort any problems. We would definitely recommend Solmar.
This is our 6th booking with Solmar Villas. The service is amazing. We book on line and get a follow up phone call, to ask if there is anything else they can support us with. The staff are really helpful, this also includes the representative’s in resort. Would highly recommend Solmar Villas.
Although you’ll be tempted to head straight to the coastline, Mainland Spain offers so much more than just idyllic beaches. Hidden valleys and mountainous villages just a short drive from the shore are waiting to be discovered and our villas in Spain are within easy reach of it all – perfect!
From the endless stretches of sand along the Costa del Sol to the fine white sand in the Costa Blanca, the Spanish mainland is one of the best when it comes to beaches. Most are suitable for young families thanks to their shallow waters, earning them the sought-after Blue Flag status for safety and quality.
You can get a slice of traditional Spanish nightlife in most resorts, such as vibrant flamenco dancing in Andalucia or live music performances in the Costa Brava. The more established resorts take care of the more upbeat clubbing scene, such as the lively Marbella in the Costa del Sol.
Each region of Mainland Spain has its specialities, ranging from sumptuous paella in the Costa Blanca to delicious tapas in Andalucia. The locals tend to eat later in the evening compared to the UK, meaning your evening meals can extend into the later hours whilst you sip a few sundowners and enjoy the local ambience.
Roman and Moorish influences dominate the Spanish Mainland which is reflected by its beautiful architecture and fascinating monuments from centuries gone by. Wander the streets of Andalucia’s whitewashed mountain villages or explore Medieval castles in the Costa Brava and you’ll soon fall in love with all that Spain has to offer.
Stretching for nearly 5km just outside the popular town of Nerja, the unmissable ‘cuevas’ (caves) are a true highlight. Discovered in 1959, this breathtaking network has become one of Andalucia’s top attractions. Regular concerts are held inside, offering a truly unique and unforgettable experience!
With countless courses and a warm climate all year round, it’s easy to see why Andalucia is one of Europe’s leading golfing destinations. The prestigious Valderrama near Sotogrande is perhaps the most iconic, having hosted the 1997 Ryder Cup. With a fantastic choice of challenging courses for all abilities, golfers are truly spoiled for choice here.
A true highlight in August, Malaga Feria is a city-wide celebration marking the reconquest of the city by the Catholic Kings back in 1487! With vibrant events and activities throughout the day and lively parties after dark, this summer fiesta has something for everyone.
