- The villa was not quite as the advertising indicated, but we appreciate that your overall intention is to give a 'general view' It was fine.
The villa is good for a weeks rest and although the furnishings are getting a little tired, we enjoyed the overall accomodation.
The state of the patio area could do with a little renovation, particularly the tiling and the 'fence' is getting rusty.
Discarded inflatable toys lying in the pool chamber were a little odd! (We did manage to repair a bed and left it for the next guests)
The shower door hinges have 'dropped' and need re-setting with new seals. If I had taken a set of 'Allen keys' with me, i would have done it.
This was probably a high standard villa a few years ago, and still good enough for a group of tired golfers who just want a bed and pool, but not for a family/couple who want good accommodation.
The neighbours were a bit weird, insisting on putting up a curtain along the dividing wall for 'their privacy'. It reduced the overall view, but we thought they may haver had noisy groups of golfers in the past. The quality of the kitchen was good and the cleaner had not left any bedding on arrival, but we found the duvets and put the covers on. They were replaced mid week.
