Villasalada - Torrevieja

What an evening, I took my daughter and granddaughter here on the last evening of their visit, it’s something I’ve wanted to do for a while and was so happy to share it with my family. We are a ‘horsey’ family but we were very impressed with the show, the horses are stunning and the dancers were excellent. The food was good, not much choice but it was all cooked and presented well. It’s well worth the €50 or €60 for a fabulous evening.

Great food, afordable price and great horse and dance show. We had a lovley time at villasalada we really enjoyd our evening can recomend

Looked at the site ,and liked the 1 hour trek around the lakes,phoned them and asked to book,but they said there was no need ,just come 15min before on the day ,did that and spoke to the guy behind the bar ,who was rude and told us we should have booked,we wanted to leave but he said it would be fine because it's not busy,told us to to to the stables and ask for Pedro,we were at the stables just standing around with 6 other people and no one to help,after 15 min Pedro appeared with no English and pointed to the tack look for hats to wear ,8 people tried to get a hat that fits but most were too small ,anyway I can ride but my wife is a beginner they were no help to her even though it stated beginner welcome,they put her on a horse and that was it,no instructions or help,the poor horse was a little high strung and scared my wife so she got off and that was the end of her experience,I went on the trek it was nice but not around the lakes like advertised, very poorly run

Had an excellent night here with family. The entertainment was fantastic. The dancers are incredible. The staff were friendly and helpful but were obviously very busy. One of our party had chosen the vegetarian option which took longer to prepare, and this meant the rest of our meals weren’t as warm as we’d have liked; but otherwise the food was all very tasty.

We have never got around to making the trip down the coast before despite a daughter who loves dance and a wife who loves horses. Yesterday we made that trip and it was so worth it. The standard set menu salad, choice of salmon or beef for main and chocolate or cheesecake for desert is pretty standard. It was decent enough for the money included a bottle of wine. NB you don't have to have the set menu or you can just pay to watch the dance horse show. Food served when we got there at 7:30 with the show not starting until around 9. I think it might have been delayed a few minutes as a thunderstorm went right over the venue just as it looked like the show was about to start. Horses thunderstorms aren't generally a good mix. The show itself lasted about 1.75 hours including a short break. The dancers were brilliant, the choice of music was excellent, but it's the horses that steal the show. Stunning animals being ridden with such expertise. It is a show that has to be seen to be believed. A big shout out to the serving staff as well. It's a massive area to cover and they did brilliantly and were really friendly. All in all, a great place and somewhere I'd highly recommend visiting if you can. The show will live long in the memory.
