This is an older style property but it boasts an excellent location, conveniently close to both the beach and the town. The on-site facilities and well maintained gardens were impressive, offering tennis and basketball courts as well as a lovely pool and spa that the kids thoroughly enjoyed. Our villa was small, but clean and well-equipped for self-catering, complete with all necessary utensils and the added convenience of an in-room washing machine, which proved very handy.

We visited as a family group (2 parents, 1 grandparent, and 2 very young children) for two nights, specifically booking this property because it was advertised as '2-bedroom,' promising private spaces for both sets of adults. Unfortunately, it is NOT 2-bedroom - there’s one bedroom and an upstairs mezzanine in the roof space that offers zero privacy. To make matters worse, 5 of the 7 available beds are on the mezzanine, so anyone staying there ends up waking with the first light or noise, disrupting the entire group. The stay was made even more uncomfortable by the heat during our visit. With only one small, noisy aircon unit in the living area attempting to cool the entire property, the upstairs mezzanine became unbearably hot from midday onwards, even with its ceiling fan. It was practically unusable during the day and very uncomfortable in the evening. The lack of effective window coverings also meant the mezzanine was flooded with light at sunrise (around 4:30 am), making it hard for folks up there to sleep. If you have kids - be warned that you'll be having some early mornings! The main bedroom wasn’t much better. Almost completely filled by its bed, it felt dark and stuffy, with poor airflow. While a pedestal fan was provided, there were no sockets to plug it in! The lack of power outlets also meant we couldn’t even charge our phones overnight—an inconvenience that feels outdated and frustrating. Reception never seemed to be open to discuss these issues. While a maintenance number was available and responsive, I didn’t feel up to lodging a formal complaint with them - I just wanted to get through the stay and go home, and departed feeling utterly exhausted.

Location and ability to accomodate a group.

The mattresses were a little uncomfortable. Some of the lights needed light bulbs and didn’t work.
