Property is great with a great location.
However, on our last morning, there was no power for the cooktop. the kettle, toaster and microwave. Perhaps the fuse had blown.

Decent Stay for Family
It was a decent stay with everything in working order.

For a high end holiday property overall experience was very average. The furniture is well past its use by date, amenities are well below par, including just one air conditioning unit leaving bedrooms with only a fan!

A safe, relaxed and beautiful location. Very calm and quiet with easy access to the beach and shops. The villa was comfortable and had a full kitchen including sharp knives!
Some additional privacy screening and blockout blinds to the loft would be useful.

Quiet roomy and conveinient to town amenities but
A bit over the top for just two people
I loved how close the villa was to the beach. It was so peaceful and quiet. The villa itself was gorgeous! Netflix was a bonus. The bed was comfy and everything you needed was there. Awesome for a romantic getaway or with family and friends! Beautiful. We will be back :).
