Here are some comments on Casa Lyse from our guests:

We had a great family holiday at Casa Lyse (me, husband and three girls 14, 12, 10 - always hard to please them!) - the villa was roomy and the air con was really useful especially on the hotter nights. the pool was fab, with plenty of other children around which gave me and my husband some time to actually sit and do nothing, for once. Enjoyed the paella evening at the complex - good value - and found the manageress helpful and pleasant. also went to the beach (when we could drag ourselves away from the pool) nice and sandy and not too crowded, and spent a couple of days exploring the local area. Really enjoyed ourselves and hope to go back. Thanks!!

“I don't normally write reviews on holidays but had to for Casa Lyse because we loved it so much! 

The house was very well equipped and was even nicer than we had expected. It was lovely and spacious, which was fantasitc as there are 6 in our family, with 4 children under 10. And the air conditioning was a God send! My kids all had a great time and made friends with lots of other children. 

It's very close to a gorgeous sandy beach which was great for the kids and we particularly liked Playa Cristal. It's also really near to Port Aventura which the kids loved and Aquapolis was a 
fantasitc waterslide park. It was great to spend the day there and then get to relax at the pool and have a glass of wine on the terrace.

Ellie- the manageress - was obliging and helpful - nothing was too much trouble and it was great that she was on site for advice whenever we needed to know anything.

All in all, it was a great holiday and we'll definitely be returning!

Hi Karen and Paul,

We  just returned from Casa Lyse having had a wonderful stay in Miami Platja.   The villa was wonderful, we made friends with quite a few people and they were all envious at how nice the villa was compared to theirs! We were glad we hired a car, you can walk to supermarkets, restaurants and beaches but a lot of people were struggling in the heat.   Our 8 year old enjoyed the pool, making friends, the rides at Port Aventura especially Furious Baco and Dragon Khan, the shows Chinatown and Bubble magic were amazing. He also had fun at Aquapolis and wished he had paid to swim with sea lions.   The restaurants on the beach in Miami Platja were relaxed but we enjoyed Cambrils for evening strolls and ice creams.   It was nice to come back to Casa Lyse and enjoy wine on the patio and have a BBQ with our neighbours.  

Thanks once again.  

Kind regards   Bev, Chris and Billy. (July 2008)

Hi Paul,

thanks for your e-mail.  We had a great holiday at the villas in Miami Playa.  The complex was lovely and Harald was on hand if we needed him for anything.  The villas were clean and tidy (and we appreciated the bottle of bubbly in the fridge too!). We ate out a lot - Carpe Diem along behind the petrol station was fab and we would have gone back but ran out of time!  We also took the little road train frequently along to Miami Crystal (from Tarragona Square) which the kids loved and allowed us to go to the beach and restaurants there.  It costs 3 euros each for a return trip. 

The kids loved the pool - it was clean when we arrived and was cleaned again (twice I think) while we were there.  Table tennis was a big hit too! Weather was great - hot & sunny pretty much every day, except for our last day when we left behind an impressive storm on Saturday with driving rain, thunder & lightening, hailstones and strong winds.  We weren't sure we would be allowed to take off as the airport kept losing power as we waited to board the flight and had to run to the plane with our bags over our heads as the rain poured down - just like being at home! We flew from Prestwick to Reus with Ryanair and organised our own transfers from Rues to the villas without any problems. We would recommend the villas to friends (we will be boring them with all our photos!) and want to thank you for your help.

Cheers, Martin, Adele & family (July 2008)

Hi Paul and Karen,

We had a fab time. The house and development is lovely and having stayed in Cambrils last year I found the Miami playa resort just as you said quite Spanish which was very refreshing. The beaches at Playa Crystal and the coves were very nice and never that packed which was lovely. 

Harold was very helpful and seems a real nice guy.  So thanks very much. We enjoyed our two weeks, did Port a Ventura and Costa Caribe which was a scream. Literally.....

On the restaurant front we had good meals at Cassola de seny and Restaurant Casablanca (great fireworks too). Our favourite restaurant was Carpe Diem which you recommended and we would never have found. The lady was very nice and the food great. She asked how we found her and we told her about your recommendation. So you might be on for a free beer next time your there. 

I hope you have a nice summer and thanks for all your help

Hi, we would like you to know that we have thoroughly enjoyed our 2 weeks in Spain, especially at your villa. The luxury of the accomodation made our stay more enjoyable and relaxing for the whole family. Your recommendation for hiring a car was much appreciated, as the driving on the opposite side of the road was not at as daunting as exptected, and it made getting about a lot more easier and convenient, even though your villa was very well situated.

It was good to have Harald on site for any problems or queries, even though we didn't have any. We would just like to thank you, once again, for all the little home comforts and the villa was a good home from home.

A big Thank You from the Thomson family. ( June 2007)

 

Hi Karen,

I am absolutely certain that I will be renting through you again in the not too distant future.  Repeat business is always the best indication of great feedback..  Thank you.

Morning Karen

 

I've only returned back to work today and was going to contact you first to say thank you.

My family had a lovely time and the complex was very peaceful and relaxing.

The mountain view was fantastic and although we didnt use the pool much it looked very enticing. We spent more time at the beach and 'Miami' is a very friendly town.

The directions given were spot-on, I dont think AA routemaster could have been better (thanks for the warning re: toll). We also did the water park and Port Aventura (thanks for the recommendations).

 

We loved the house it has a nice family setting and Harald was a great help with queries and questions...

  We had a really nice time in both Barcelona(2 nights) and Miami Playa (7 nights). Miami Playa was ultra relaxing with no major crowds anywhere and yet enough going on to feel the holiday atmosphere. The weather was a big help I am sure with ideal temperatures of up to about 28 C. Playa Crystal is a gem both for kids activities which were happening each evening, the beach (real sandy bottom to stand on when in swimming is a bit of a rarity in Spain and to be able to sit out in restaurants along the promenade with kids playing safely nearby.

 

The swimming pool at Parc Salida deserves a special mention where the kids spent a lot of time.

Hi Karen + Paul

Just wanted to say thank you for the rental of your villa. We had a wonderful relaxing holiday and now its back to the real world.  

Your villa is wonderful and far exceeded our expectations

Maria and Family  (June 06)

Just a short note to thank you for a wonderful stay at Parc Salida at the beginning of May.  Not knowing the area, I found Karen's notes on the area extremely helpful, including all her restaurant suggestions.  The villa was superb - so many little extras to make our stay more enjoyable.  It felt like home from home - except I wish my bathroom at home looked like that!  The place was spotless too.

 I will definitely be coming back and would not hesitate in recommending Parc Salida to friends.

 Oh, and thanks for making the booking process so easy, informative and straightforward

Hi Paul and Karen

Have literally just returned as after we left Spain we decided to drive down to Cornwall to stay in our caravan for the bank holiday.

Holiday in Spain was fab. The villa was beautiful and so well equipped as was the complex...the lads even braved the pool but only for a few minutes. we didn't spend much time in Miami Playa as we had a weeks pass to Port Aventura and altho hadn't intended to go quite so much we spent most of our holiday there as the lads loved it so much. Weather was fab too...so nice to see the sun again!

Directions weren't an issue as we travelled from Barcelona airport but I have left them in the folder at the villa as there was a lot of other info for other british visitors that you had sent that I thought might be useful.

Anyway thank you again for the use of the villa, I shall certainly be recommending you to friends and hopefully we will return at some point in the future.

Many thanks
Helen
