Our family of 9 stayed in Plesio, but the accommodations were sparse and lacking. First know that 3 of the 5 bedrooms are located below ground in what our family began referring to as “the dungeon” due to how cold and damp it was, WiFi was unreachable there. I missed on the listing that one of those bedrooms doesn’t have a bed, but a pull out couch which was a problem for our party’s size. The 2 bedrooms upstairs on the third level were quite warm and the AC units were unreliable at best. We had no hot water one morning, were provided with sheets but half of the beds had no blankets and those that had comforters were stained. Extra pillows were given but no linens to dress them with. And while they have a pool, there are no towels provided. If you want them for pool use, you have to pay extra. Broken anti gravity lawn chairs that when my sister went to lean back she went straight to the ground on her head. Thankfully, she wasn’t hurt. Moldy dirty showers. While communication with the rental company was efficient, often times I felt like I was asking for too much. The repair man, who was very nice, was needed 3 of our 5 days there. Overall the property has potential, but needs some TLC. Not sure if this is on the owner or the rental company, but it really doesn’t take much to provide extra linens, towels, and blankets. Creature comforts go a long way in making people feel at home. A reason we choose home rental over hotels. This one misses the mark for us.

We had an amazing time staying at Villa Lumbini. The team provided detail directions to reach the property, and the views are as amazing as the pictures show. You definitely need a car here though, not much to walk to. The host provided a baby cot for our 6th month old and the house ended up the perfect place for our family trip. Would certainly stay here again!

The house has a nice location with a good view. Good bathrooms, although not all can be locked.

The house was very clean and well set up. The main issue we had was the quality of soft furnishings - linens and towels were very low quality and not what we’d expect for a property like this. It’s unfortunate because small improvements would make this property great but unfortunately it’s a bit average and overpriced for what it is

We stayed there with another couple. Luckily we rented a car because you can’t really walk comfortably or safely to and from town. I’ll begin with the positives. The views are spectacular. Garage was big and easy to access. The two master suites upstairs were perfect for two couples. A nice welcome basket with snacks and drinks was waiting for us. Now the negatives. We were informed that they could not heat the pool for us, but they didn’t tell us that it would be covered by a dirty pool cover the entire time. So we could never enjoy time by the pool. While the instructions for the villa and for directions to get there were quite detailed, they were out of date…ie: wifi code, washer and dryer setup. We spent much of our first 24 hours there trying to figure out how things worked, and could not get a hold of anybody to help us. We left messages for the rental company, but never heard back from them. But one afternoon a repairman showed up with replacement batteries for for the TV remotes. After sorting out all these issues, we did end up enjoying our stay there immensely. We recommend that they supply paper towels for the next renters.

Es fehlte an der Vorbereitung ihrerseits

Generel sind wir sehr zufrieden. DANKE dass sie den Pool für uns früher bereit gemacht haben. Die Ausstattung des Hauses war sehr gut. Leider war nicht sauber gereinigt. Es gab Spinnennetze in der Dusche, der Schlüsselcode war falsch in den Unterlagen, die Heizung und das Warmwasser haben nicht funktioniert. Das Garagentor war defekt. Auch wäre es gut, wenn wir genauer gewusst hätten was wir selber mitbringen sollen (Cafetiera, Küchentücher, Holz für den Grill, usw.) Es bleiben uns aber sehr schöne Erinnerungen.
