Christmas Eve saw the arrival of two guests from Liverpool – Gary and Andy – who had made a reservation to visit us for 10 nights, staying right through until into the New Year. They arrived in the early evening, settled into their room, and then joined us for dinner that night. It turned out that this was the first time they had spent Christmas outside the UK, and had chosen our part of Spain [...]
Winter Sunshine Holidays
At the beginning of last week we welcomed a guest from Switzerland – Beatriz had driven all the way from Geneva to Spain, initially spending time with her parents in Galicia to the north before coming down to visit us at Villa Florencia. Her main reason for visiting this area was because a friend of hers from Switzerland – also born to Spanish parents – was getting married in her parent’s home town near Gandía [...]
A Break from the City!
We had a booking during the course of last week from a man from Madrid, who had stayed with us last year as well. We are always pleased when a past guest wants to return to us, and this time Nacho wanted to bring three of his friends along with him, to show them where he had had such a good time the previous year. Because they were going to be a group of four, [...]
The Last Despedida of the Season!

Ten girls from Castellón had booked the whole house for the weekend and it was their intention to spend the daytimes enjoying themselves in the pool and to spend the evenings celebrating the send-off of their friend. Most of the girls arrived at about seven o’clock in the evening in order to prepare and decorate [...]
Americans on Tour! We received a booking some time ago (via e-mail) requesting accommodation for a party of six people, who were coming to the area for a few days with the main intention of visiting the Lladró porcelain factory in Valencia. We had assumed this was a group of friends from the UK who were flying in for the weekend, so we were surprised and pleased when a mini-bus pulled into the car park [...]
Bed and Breakfast Holidays in Valencia Province
Stuart and Linda, along with their 10 month old daughter Katy, booked in to stay with us for 8 nights in our self-catering apartment over the Easter period. They wanted to have a combination holiday that took in city, beach and countryside so decided that making Villa Florencia their base would be the perfect solution, and they often made use of our evening meal service when they returned from a particularly long day out. They [...]
