About
Mi Refugio Villa - Alicante
Mi Refugio Villa sits in the San Juan Beach district, about a 10-minute drive from Mount Benacantil. The property centres on an outdoor pool and a terrace, with a garden that guests regularly mention as a highlight. Wi-Fi and a private parking garage are included, and the apartments come with a kitchenette for self-catering.
The style is residential rather than hotel-like — a house with shared living space, a kitchen for coffee and snacks, and a garden that encourages slow mornings. The host, often named Margot or Margo in reviews, is consistently described as warm, helpful, and generous with local advice, and has even driven guests to the airport.
