Very nice property. Sheep were on the property, which you could pet and feed. The villa was nice. We had a two bedroom. One queen bed and two twin beds for our kids. One full bathroom, another would have been nice, but the one worked well. It was very close to the downtown area, about one KM. there are several good restaurants and all the companies running excursions. Would have me problem recommending.
