“We really enjoyed it and would recommend it!”

 “Thanks a lot Wendy, you and the Team at the stables Made us feel welcome, we had fun and keep the experience in our memories for ever :o) Yvonne & Juliane”

“Increible tarde, frescos y nobles caballos y Bruno era un master de tanto tratar bien a sus animales como a las personas. Vine con experiencia de montar y me dió el mejor caballo para tanto disfrutar el paseo con un poco de reto y mejorar mi tecnica. Y Chris tambien, super guia por la zona. Si amas a los caballos, lo recomiendo de mi corazón. Hanne, de Noruega;)”

“Everything top-notch from start to finish, really opened up an appreciation for horses and their care.”

“I booked the experience for my wife and daughter, they absolutely loved it, and would definitely recommend to others...”

“Спасибо большое за впечатления”

“Приехали на прогулку с маленьким ребёнком 3 года. Восторг у всех! Дочка второй день говорит только о лошадях. Была проблема с тем, что в начале пути ребёнок отказался ехать верхом. Его взяли обратно на ферму и окружили заботой! Жаль, что поездка длилась не так долго, как мы планировали (из-за ребёнка), но впечатления останутся надолго! Очень внимательные и гостеприимные люди. Ужин был чудесный) спасибо огромное всем!!!”

“Vielen vielen Dank! Wendy ist eine sehr freundliche und zuvorkommende Person, der es sehr wichtig ist, dass ihre Gäste sich wohlfühlen. Es war einfach wundervoll und familiär. Kann ich jedem nur Empfehlen.”

“What a marvelous experience! I loved every minute. First, Wendy is the consummate host. She is friendly, accommodating, warm, funny, and knowledgeable. She is well-connected with the people at Centro Hípico Oliva, so she knows what to do to make the trip special. She went above and beyond for me, and I so appreciated her kindness. Second, the people at Centro Hípico are magnificent. Bruno, Blade, Cristal, Katja—all were generous, kind, and helpful. Finally, the apartment host, Chrissie, was exceptionally friendly, warm, and accommodating. Such a lovely person! You should do this experience. So worth it. The people are top-notch, and the location is magnificent.”

“Unique et dépaysant”

“I booked this experience for myself and my two nieces 8 and 14 years old and we enjoyed it so much! I was a bit worried about their safety at first, but they’ve been watched well by staff while we walked through beautiful park. When we arrived we were served with a quick breakfast and then were welcome to walk around and look at the horses, also after the walk we were served with delicious homemade paella! It’s a very friendly community, I’d like to thank Wendy, Bruno and everyone who made our day special. I was absolutely touched to know that a lot of the horses they look after were rescued and I can tell they are happy and feel loved. Would definitely come back again!”

“My friend and I had a great time during this experience!! We arrived a little late but Wendy was so kind and accommodating. We were shown around the stable and introduced to all the horses. Riding on the beach was amazing and I would recommend to anyone!”

“Wir hatten einen wunderschönen und erlebnisreichen Nachmittag bei Wendy! Die Tour war landschaftlich pitoresk und für Reitanfänger gut geeignet. Wir haben uns stets sicher und gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Die Pferde sehen sehr gesund und kräftig aus, der Stall und die ganze Anlage machen einen gepflegten Eindruck. Liebevoll wird die grosse Anzahl von Pferden umsorgt. Anschließend an unsere Tour wurden wir mit einer sehr leckeren Paella und einem knackigen Salat mit Rotwein verwöhnt. Die äusserst sympathischen Gespräche rundeten das ganze Erlebnis wunderbar ab. Wir können dieses Angebot auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen!”

“Although my Girlfriend picked this Experience and I wasn't THAT excited at first, I really had a blast and thanks to the staff, we had a great adventurous day. 10/10 usually-not-that-excited-about-stuff boyfriends would recommend.”

“My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time spent in Oliva with Wendy and with Victor who was guiding us during the horse riding. It was our first time and we were really surprised how we enjoyed even this first experience. Victor is a big enthusiastic energiser who did his best for explaining to us how to ride a horse and even more importantly how to enjoy the ride. Wendy picked us up at the bus stop and organised everything in a very comfortable way. We had the lunch included which was a really good idea after the ride because we were exhausted but happy. If we will be somewhere near again we would definitely like to try all the other offered rides, like the beach one. Very recommended life experience.”

“When you arrive, you are warmly greeted, shown around the stables, introduced to the horses, and help “ kit” out your horse. All of the staff could not have been more friendly. There are toilets and changing facilities , together with coffee/ bar facilities available. Do wear long pants, as in jeans, but your boots and hat are provided. The atmosphere, is most certainly “Spanish”. Hard to explain, but if you visit, you will see what I mean. Wendy herself, is very knowledgeable,and you can immediately pick up on her love for horses. She is a friendly, and very pleasant person. If you had any nervousness about riding, she will quickly disperse this feeling.”

“Beautiful experience! Horses were incredible, and responsive, didn’t need to be an expert, though it helped a lot having a little bit of experience. Would definitely book again if in the area. Was worth the bus ride from Valencia.”

“Perfect organisation, lovely place (my 8 years old daughter told me: "I feel like in the paradise Daddy here at the Stables :)), smiling, friendly and open people working here. Wendy is lovely women, with huge experience of travelling. Tasty paella and coffee at bar. The only thing: If you gonna travel with kid, I think it is smart try to make appointment directly on the lovely beach. My daughter was a bit tired after 20 mins riding from stables to the ocean. (I was perfect). Thank you Victor for great attention! Next time I am in Spain - I will definitely visit Wendy's Magical Stables! Very strong recommendation from me!”

“This was wonderful the horses were well taken care of and fun to ride. I am a decent rider and my partner was new but both horses suited us and we had a wonderful experience. We got lost finding it and Wendy helped us out great response rate. Our food afterwards was all farm fresh home made family style with a few beers and coffee afterwards. The ride was wonderful to the beach then down the beach ( we even had a cute puppy dolls us)”

“It was a lovely experience. The horses were well mannered and quiet but I'm sure with better riders, they would've been equal to any task. The ride along the ocean was lots of fun. And once back at the stable the meal was delightful as we watched the young riders being put through their paces. Wendy made sure we were well taken care of and dropped us off for our bus ride back to Valencia. All in all, a captivating day in Oliva.”

“Fabulous experience from start to finish. Wendy picked us up at the bus station (a 45 minute trip from Valencia), drove us the short distance to the equestrian facility and introduced us to the stable of stallions ... all beautiful animals! We met the owners over a cup of coffee while our mounts were being saddled. A little instruction as the Spanish method of riding is quite different from western, and we were off. Our guide was very good and our horses were very calm as we traversed the highway to get to the beach. The beach ride was an experience of a lifetime! And even though our horses were calm, they were extremely responsive ... not a usual trait for horses provided to the general public. The ride took us about 90 minutes then back to the facility where we were treated to the best homemade paella I’ve ever had. The owners are a lovely couple and clearly love what they’re doing. Enjoyed sitting in the shade of the trees and having a nice cold beer while watching riders put their horses through their routines in the arena. Highly recommend this experience to my fellow travellers.”

“This is a casual fun day in a Nature reserve. Wendy and several others at the stables were warm and friendly. Nothing is rushed. The horses were excellent. The ride takes you thru small family farms and the nature reserve of marsh and rice paddies. The mountains and surrounding were excellent.Great day, good company and a great ride...The only small glitch can be finding the stables. Wendy is updating this for google maps”

“Food was great and Wendy was lovely, a must see. We’ve gone on many of these excursions around the world and these were by far the most beautiful and well trained horses we’ve ever come across. Very well cared for and responsive. Wendy had a lot of knowledge of the area and we really enjoyed her company.”

“Location was hard to find as it does not appear on Apple maps... But, Wendy was wonderful to talk to and we had a great time on the experience! The people who own the facility are very kind, and provided us with refreshments and homemade paella with rice grown right behind the property! The horses were all beautiful, and many of them were rescued which is amazing. My horse got spooked and i wasn’t able to control him, so Victor (another guide) led my horse the whole way back to ensure my safety, and even though we did not speak the same language he managed to communicate with me and even make conversation! Overall a great day. ”

“Magnifiques chevaux dans un endroit magnifique lui aussi. Wendy est très accueillante ainsi que toutes les personnes que nous avons rencontré lors de cette journée. La paëlla était très bonne et nous avons découvert la horchata, boisson que nous ne connaissions pas.”

“Min datter og jeg havde en fantastisk morgen/formiddag i Wendys selskab. Startende med den lækreste crossiant/kaffe, en rundvisning i staldene og en dejlig tur i Pago-naturreservatet. Hestene blev endda klargjort for os. Jeg havde Ron, en dejlig frisk hest der helst ville gå forest og min datter en hest der helst bare ville spise blade og dovne lidt, sådan lidt som vores temperament. Det var godt spottet :). Til sidst lækre bruschetta, en dejlig Paella med kylling og meget saftig og lækker vandmelon. En formiddag min datter og jeg sent vil glemme. Og så er Wendy bare en livlig og livsbekræftende dame i sin bedste alder ?”
