We had a great time for 3 weeks, enjoying the fabulous view, with up to 13 people at one time across 4 generations (aged 11 to 83). The seven double bedrooms, all ensuite, and generous living space worked very well. Although our youngest was 11, it would be suitable for younger children in terms of equipment (high chairs and cots) and attention to safety. The villa was fresh, clean, with great air conditioning, and well equipped throughout, apart from a couple of small items in the kitchen. Lots of towels were provided for bathrooms and the pool. The gorgeous pool was our focal point for play, exercising and sunbathing, with shade available whenever needed. A few also enjoyed playing table tennis. Philippe, who looks after the villa, was pleasant and helpful, arriving within minutes when we needed him and Marie, who came to help with cleaning, was charming. It would have been useful to have some cleaning materials already there, especially given the long rental, however Marie was undaunted and we managed. The villa has limited disability friendly provision. While one bedroom is on the same level as the living area and kitchen, it is necessary to climb 14 steps up to the pool level and 7 more to enter the villa. This was fine for our older guests who have fairly good mobility but may not suit others. Like many villas in the area, it has a steep driveway. I would suggest providing some written information in the villa,e.g. contact numbers for Philippe, how to contact the local doctor, emergency numbers, supermarket locations. I would happily recommend this lovely villa.

The owner obviously tried to trick us from the very beginning. The day we booked, we were given the property address, and as we found out later, it was not the address of the advertised house we booked and paid for. But evidently, we only found out once we got there. 48 hours before the start of our stay, the owner texted us that the house we booked and fully paid for - a 7 bedrooms/7 bathrooms house - had "swimming pool issues and A/C problems in one of the rooms". We were offered as an alternative another smaller house, unsuitable for our needs. This alternative house had 6 bedrooms / 5 bathrooms, and could not accommodate my 12 guests; besides, unlike the initially booked house, it was not accessible to physically challenged people. We made this very clear to the owner. We also clearly stated that we could live with the issues as described, if they could not be fixed on time. The same day we received another message stating that the plumbing issues will be resolved. Once we got there, we found out that the address given to us from the very beginning is NOT where the advertised house we paid for is located. It was in fact the smaller house, the house we had made clear was not suitable, because we could not fit all together. Obviously, she was trying to confuse us from the beginning…or, was it a BAIT- AND -SWITCH? When asked for a clarification, the manager said she got confused between the many properties she owns... When asked about the house we had booked, we were told by the caretaker on site that it was definitely not available... because it was occupied.  We were left with no choice but to take what was available.  We were forced to split into 2 groups, and 3 of my guests were put up in a separate accommodation, in the backyard, were the kitchen was locked and off-limits for religious reasons we were told. The house we ended up with was under-equipped in kitchenware and cutlery. The access was very difficult for an 87 years old person and 2 small children. The lower ground floor (3 bedrooms) had a persistent smell (sewers? mold?) The pool maintenance was done only once during our 6-day stay. All in all, it was a very disappointing experience. Of course, the owner denies any missellling or wrongdoing
