Great for stag party

We were a group of 11 on a stag trip, and we found it great value for money. Several of the rooms were very spacious and a couple of us could share quite comfortably. We did encounter a couple of issues with the hot water, but the host responded promptly and was quick to address them.

Great Location

Lovely clean and spacious villa. Located perfectly between the Old Town and the main strip. Far enough away from the noise but within easy walking distances to the main areas. Villa comfortably slept 15 of us on a Stag Do, with plenty of room for larger groups. Dealing with Jim for the whole process was easy and he always responded quickly when we needed information. Would highly recommend the villa.

We stayed in this property all 21 of us for my sisters hen party back at the start of June.Honestly couldn’t have asked for any better. The property was amazing and the pictures don’t do it any justice it was clean. The electricity did keep tripping but that was expected when there was so many of us.Jim was absolutely brilliant. Anything needed before or during our visit he was easy to get in contact with.

Great for a crowd!

The Villa is spacious enough to comfortably accommodate our large group of friends. We gathered both inside around the dining table and poolside. While I wouldn’t call it luxurious, the house was clean and comfortable. The location is perfect— walking to the beach, old town and great local restaurants. You can even get to old town by way of the beach, it’s a beautiful walk. The host was responsive and accommodating.

Great villa & Fab location

Loved our stay was a perfect sized villa for a hen party of x18 girls and Jim was extremely helpful if we had any questions. The villa is located in a great location, right in the middle of the strip and the old town. It was about a 10 min walk to the strip and probably similar time to the old town the other way which was perfect for us. It had everything we needed, would definitely reccommend! Thanks Again! Ellie

Brilliant stay at Villa Bella

I booked for a stag party of 17 to stay in Villa Bella and we could not have been happier. The villa was a perfect size for our group with a great pool area. The villa is a 5 minute walk from some great local beach bars and mini markets and a quick walk to the strip and old town. A couple of the doors had some issues locking, however a sliding gate could be pulled across and locked to provide security when leaving the villa. Jim was the perfect host, quickly responding to any queries or requests we had and even booked our airport transfers for us and was available around the clock. Would definitely recommend this villa to any larger parties!

Stag doo

Stayed here with 18 lads, and for the price we payed i was shocked with how good it was. There was plenty of room, everyone had there own bed, the pool itself was deep and spacious. Id recommend heating it up 👍 The villa is in the perfect location, 15 min either side to walk to the old town or new town. Jim the host was brilliant in anything we needed. Kept me informed at all times and was there when we needed him ( couldn’t work the door ) Id 1000% recommend this villa to large groups.

Excellent week had by all

16 family members across three generations stayed here for 6 nights and all had a great time. The villa was in an excellent location - away from the hussle and bussle of the Old Town and the strip but ideally located between the two and close to some excellent restaurants and amenities such as supermarkets. Jim was exceptional from start to finish. He was extremely responsive to questions we had in the build up to our holiday and couldn't do enough to help. Defintely worth arranging airport transfers through Jim too. Would definitely recommend both the property and the host.

Hen stay!

Overall amazing communication from Jim, he sorted out our transfers and was available to contact at any time and got back to us promptly. There were 18 girls in and at points we had power cuts (probably from all using the hairdryers at the same time) but this was easily fixed by the switchboard. The villa has been updated/modernised from the photos online so it was a lovely surprise. Villa had everything we needed and it is a fantastic location! Thank you so much for a fantastic stay! :)
