Review Subject: Hola Oliva Rental House
Review title: "Real Spain!"
Travel date: May 2007
We wanted to stay in Real Spain. We had heard about Oliva and a nice rental house and included it in our tour. We are from California in USA where it hardly ever rains and is artificially green. Oliva, Valencia, Spain is naturally green, the rain is refreshing and followed by gorgeous sunshine, the beaches are so clean and the sand is so soft compared with our local beaches in So Cal. Lovely.

The main thing we enjoyed about this place is the local people are very true to themselves. They are friendly, straight forward and welcoming. The neighbours of our shabby chic style accommodation are a lovely retired Spanish couple. The views from our rental house are amazing. From your bed you can see the sea, the gorgeous blue domed Moorish roof, over the orange groves and from the roof terrace you can see all this plus the mountain range behind the town.

It is so different staying in an authentic property in such a central location in the old part of town. We loved Oliva, its real people and the whole experience has changed our lives.

Review Subject: Restaurant Fuegos
Review title: "Excellent!"
Travel date: July 2007
A quick review about grill restaurant Fuegos in Oliva, Valencia. All I can say is: it's an excellent restaurant! I stayed in Oliva for three months, and I ate there once every week. (Just couldn't get enough of their steaks). If you are vacationing in Oliva, make sure you get a hold of their sirloin steak, hot brownie with ice cream and amazing piña colada.

The restaurant has a very cosy atmosphere. Furthermore, most of their staff either is English, or speaks English at least. They are very friendly, and if you have a question about something on the menu, don't be afraid to ask them. The cook comes to your table, with all the answers you might need.
