A Lovely Holiday
Written by Richard Allen on 21/09/2008
"I would just like to say that this was one of the loveliest holidays we have had as a family in a very long time, we usually stop at a hotel or apartment and it is was our first time at a villa and it has changed our views on holidays.
Gary and Bernie were the perfect hosts and catered to our every whim. The rooms were beautiful and very spacious and the pool was to die for...with everything you need for a family break and more. Because the villa had everything to hand we had no need to go elsewhere although we did visit the beach twice and then couldnt wait to get back to our pool to cool down and we had a few nights out at the port in puerto cabopino which were lovely. Will definately go back again in the not to distant future for another 10/10 holiday. "
"Villa Cabopino-A Fabulous beginning"
Written by Bill Young on 21/09/2008
"We have just returned from a wonderful weeks holiday at the villa.If you have viewed the website and think it looks fabulous, we can confirm it really is as good as it looks and more!
Garry and Bernie are the perfect hosts , from the minute you arrive to you leave - you will love these people.The area is ideal from shopping in Marbella, designer in Puerto Banus- and you must take a trip to Gibraltar. The guys loved the golf and its on the doorstep ! We can also recommend The Village Inn in Orange Square for excellent food and flamenco dancing, also Cabo Pizza for excellent pizzas and friendly delivery.
We fell in love with the villa, the people and the coastline. A special mention to Ollie (the King Charles Spaniel )who is an excellent pool guard and now has a taste of scottish sausages- we loved him to bits!
We have booked for next year , and hope this is just the beginning of a long relationship with Villa Cabopino.
Garry, Bernie, Micky and of course Ollie- Thank you so much for a great holiday we will see you all next year.

A Real Delight
Written by Andrea Langley on 30/08/2008
"On our arrival we were welcomed by Bernie and Garry who gave a quick tour and left us to settle in. The villa is very spacious with good quality fixtues and fittings and extremely clean, the bedlinen and towels provided were all changed regularly. The garden and pool were all well maintained, the garden setting is beautiful.
The villa is close to Cabopino beach, great for your body boards, the Italian restaurant Da Brunos is within walking distance and it is only a short drive to the driving range and golf course.
We stayed with 3 children aged 18 to 10 years and in Marbella there are plenty of activities to keep them occupied, from beach, golf, go karting, water parks, shooting, riding and of course shopping for the girls at La Canada or Cortes Ingles.
Bernie and Garry the owners were helpful and friendly and gave me help and advice when I needed it and gave me the space to enjoy a relaxing break with my children."

We were ready for a relaxing family holiday and Villa Cabopino exceeded all expectations. The villa itself was luxurious with ample room, huge beds, walk in wardrobe and fabulous shower and jacuzzi bath. Outside the garden with its banana and palm trees provided the perfect location to play in or simply lounge around the pool. The grounds were completely safe and secure so our 5 year old could play without the worry that she may be at risk.
The kitchen facilities were home from home whatever you needed was there plus a barbecue on the patio for those really lazy days.
The hosts Bernie and Garry keep this villa to the highest standards and offer valuable information on the location including the best shops (go to the Irish butcher for your BBQ stuff!), bars, beaches and restaurants. Most importantly they offered good company if you wanted it but if not ,you would never know they were there.
We are booking for next year!!!
If you want a relaxing holiday in beautiful surroundings with the opportunity to meet two lovely people plus Oliver the dog, then this is the place for you.

We arrived at the airport and were met by Garry & Bernie who made us feel welcome straight away. They drove us to the villa and showed us round, it was absolutely lovely and the beds were huge , everything was just as described and better.The restaurants and bars and beach were all in walking distance and the food was good. We wanted a relaxing holiday as this was the first time we had taken my grandson (who was 20mths) away and he loved it, there was eight of us all together including teenagers and they even made some friends while we were here. I think Garry and Bernie were perfect hosts , helpful and friendly and always there if we needed them , thank you to them both for a lovely holiday. Nina & Family

Stunning Villa
Written by Lee Connor on 09/06/2008
We were collected from the airport by Garry & Bernie and on arriving at the villa were amazed at how big and luxurious it was, the garden area has a wonderful pool and bar area for bbq's and the kids were very safe as it is all enclosed so we could just relax and enjoy the sun.
Garry & Bernie are excellent hosts who could do no more they took us to a supermarket so we could stock up on food and drinks and were very knowledgable about where to go out and eat and places to visit. The beach is only a 10 min walk away and was very clean and tidy.
We will definately choose this villa again in the near future.Thanks for a great holiday Lee, Joanne and Family

A Beautiful Villa
Written by Tony "Banger" Walsh on 14/04/2008
"A Lovely Villa in a Beautiful location"
"My family and i visited the Villa in April 2008 and had a wonderful time. The accomodation is superb, with my youngest son Adam commenting "Quality" when he saw his bedroom.
We made full use of the pool for our week, and also hired a car to visit Puerto Banus and Marbella.
Garry & Bernie recommended we try Da Bruno's for a meal and suggested we put on our "glad-rags" for the occasion, it was well worth it.
We took a slow walk down to the Port most nights, and had some great meals down there, with Alberts coming out as a firm favourite for all of the family, they make you very welcome.
The week seemed to end too quickly and we will be recommending this place to all our friends.

Great Stay
Written by Emma Rainsley & Family on 12/04/2008
We were looking for a safe family holiday in Spain, we found Villa Cabopino, after we visited the website and booked 10 days in march. We were greeted at the airport and taken to the Villa.
The accommodation was beautifully presented clean and welcoming and just as the site described. We had use of the pool, bar and a lovely garden which the children had a great time playing in whilst we were able to relax knowing our children were safe and visible. The villa is set in its own secure grounds and walking distance from a great beech, bars bus route and local entertainment. We hired a car and everything was really accessible.
While we were there we visited all around the coast there was plenty of attractions and fun family things to do and everywhere was well signposted and easy to get to. We had a fantastic holiday, the weather was great the accommodation was perfect and Gaz and Bernie were fantastic hosts providing a wonderful environment for a family holiday.
We would recommend Villa Cabopino to anybody and will definitely be booking to return ourselves.
