    Kitchen utensils v. Poor in stark contrast to quality of villa . A welcome pack of salt/pepper/tea/coffee etc.would be a huge bonus for a small cost .

    Internal space was excellent. Pool adequate.

    Some of the beds weren’t very comfortable but not awful. Also the garden doesn’t get a lot of sun throughout the day.

    Spacious and as described. Good value for money. We had a great long weekend with 7 of us staying. Really easy and cheap to get Ubers to the old town/ beach.

    The only negative was the beds in the downstairs bedroom were upgraded camp beds & could be noisy when you rolled over in them.

    Plenty of room for a family of 7 over 3 generations.The 3 bedrooms upstairs have en suite bathrooms which was a bonus. Grandchildren used the pool every day. Spar shop & bars/restaurants a short walk around to opposite side of Marina.

    The house could have been cleaner and better maintained, there were issues with the air con reported by others and the house does feel unloved with a pretty poor standard of decor and fixtures and fittings. It is a pity because with a bit of love and an upgrade, it could be amazing.

    The house itself is lovely, lots of space, outside area and lovely pool for the kids. The harbour area was pleasant, it was nice having shops bars and restaurants nearby, they do get noisy but you can't hear anything inside the house itself.

    When we arrived the kitchen smelt bad of gone off milk, I told the owner however he ignored it and I had to clean it up myself. However there were absolutely no cleaning products in the house, no washing up liquid or sponges and no toilet paper, after the first night we had ran out. No kitchen items either like oil, salt or pepper. These are basic items you would expect with a Booking.com place and the fact it wasn't clean when we arrived definitely lowered the standards. Also the AC in top floor small bedroom did not work properly, I told the owner and he sent a technician round who just told me to keep the doors and window shut, which we had been doing!

    Big space, plenty of room for the 8 of us, great outside space with enough sunbeds and chairs for all of us. Also it was helpful having en suite in all the rooms so we could get ready at the same time.

    Minor point- alarm had to be turned off as constantly beeped. Cooker ignition not working and had to use matches all the time. Couple of locks on doors inside not working.

    Plenty of room inside and out. Great area to stay. Would come back.

    The beds were uncomfortable and very old there was a trip hazard around seating where gazebo used to be every person in villa had a trip over it and the children fell frequently hurting their toes and feet more towels would have been good wasn’t enough longe space for ten people television was too small and disliked the fact that the villas on opposite sides were full of youngsters causing havoc I know this wasn’t owners fault but definitely made me consider twice about returning next year we were at villa six last year and didn’t see any young groups around the villas villa was clean and tidy owners were very helpful with groceries and taxis which were much appreciated but villa could do with a bit of update and more laundry and home comforts

    Close location to the Marina, with a supermarket, bars, restaurants and activities for children. My advice would be to use Just Eat/delivery services for food/drinking water ect and make it even easier on yourselves.

    Needs TLC but great location.
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Four-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool

    The villa generally lacked some TLC and there was not much of a homely feel about it. Walls were bare apart from a large print in the lounge which had only one sofa to sit on which could be a problem if you have a full house! The dining chairs seemed a little cheap and unstable and one seat came off, but they did the job. Outside there is a BBQ which I would not have used as it was very rusty. Onto the stairs - they look beautiful in stained wood, very modern spiral design up to the bedrooms. However, the outer edge of the stairs ran against full windows with blinds but there was a gap between the windows frames' and the stair edge which was very dangerous as we had a two year old and 5 year old with us. To help with this it appears that makeshift gates were put on the entrance to the basement room but not going up the stairs. The same type of gate was put up on the landing at the to of the stairs - they were wooden concertina style flimsy things like garden trellis which just hooked loosely to fasten - this villa is not suitable for young children! The shower in our room did not work correctly as when I pulled up the tap diverter it just came out, so we had showers with the tap running at the same time. My son's room had similar shower problems. His room had a balcony, the door would not lock, along with security issues and keeping small children away this was not as expected. I felt sorry for the villa because it is short of being looked after properly and could be made much better and to the standard you expect when you pay ex amount for a private villa. I hope that these problems can be fixed and although my report is quite lengthy, I would return with a group of friends rather than children.

    Location is great for visits to the pretty Marina which you can see from some of the bedrooms. The villa is spacious and the kitchen was well equipped with utensils, toaster etc. All areas were very clean on arrival. The layout of the property is three bedrooms upstairs, each with it's own full bathroom and there is a further small bedroom off the lounge without a bathroom however, there is one off the lounge virtually next door. The dining table was large to sit 8-10 people and the beds were comfortable. The games room had a football table and you could also play table tennis which was a great idea. Plenty of good eateries running along the harbour which is full of a variety of boats both private and tourist. There is a Spa shop which sells everything you might need also. The kids loved going on the children's fair ground style rides, bowling and there is even an indoor karting track for older teens/adults. The pool was good if not a little cold towards the end of October, it is mostly in the shade.

The owner was very kind. He always answered the phone and helped us out with any queries without hesitation. We all loved it here and would love to come back!
