8/10 Good
"Pros: First of all, I do not know why it shows United States new my name. I am not an American citizen. I am from EU. I could not find my country in the list. Spacious stylish house. Our group of 15 adults and 2 babies feel comfortable in this villa. Each could find own place. And there were enough places for gathering and spending time all together. Spacious living room, big terrace and space around the pool. Big pool where 10 people can feel well themselves. Charming Inner court yard. 7 bedrooms ensuite. Additional bathroom on pool side. Very good barbeque area with cooking utensils useful for cooking for a big group of people. Very good location despite it is in the countryside between greenhouses. Villa is situated in 10 minutes drive from shops and beach. Very friendly host Noel. Cons: Villa was not clean enough. We could not use oven, because it was not fixed in kitchen cabinet and one of the door's glasses was broken. Cats of neighbors attacked us all the time. We kept doors closed, but cats were seen in the house even during nights. They enter through broken mosquitos nets on windows. Some members of our group have strong allergy, so that was not safe. Very strong and unpleasant smell came from the corner with waterfall, where cats are living."

Luxury Villa With Spectacular Views! Private heated pool - hot tub!

8/10 Good
"We absolutely loved our stay and had a perfect family holiday! The villa was clean, spacious and had stunning views. The pool was so much fun, and there were lots of areas to sit and relax, including plenty of shade. We also loved having a BBQ (just a heads up, it’s gas - we made the mistake of buying charcoal )We loved exploring the old town, with its cobbled streets, twists and turns, and gorgeous views from the old church.Our only thing to mention is that we found taxis almost impossible to get. One evening we walked into the old town, taking around an hour. It was fine for us as a couple, although part of the walk is along a dual carriageway. We couldn’t get a taxi back despite asking in bars and restaurants, so had to walk back. It was hard and hot, but no regrets, we just didn’t fancy doing it again We also tried another evening to get a taxi for a family meal but couldn’t, so stayed in. Maybe we were just unlucky and certainly didn't ruin our holiday but it’s worth knowing if travelling with young children or elderly relatives. A car made everything easy during the day. The listing says the beach is a 2 min drive, but it took us around 6 minutes just to get down the hill, so I’d allow 10–15 minutes, unless we missed something.The jacuzzi is amazing which the whole family enjoyed and a nice bonus!Overall, we loved the villa and had such a fantastic family holiday!"

"The hotel is a bit dated and could do with a renovation/ modernisation. Otherwise its clean and spacious. The beds were inconsistent in comfort. We were in the quadruple bed room and half the bed were so old it squeaked when you roll over in your sleep, and the mattress was so uncomfortable that I didn't get to sleep much all night."
