I stayed with my partner for a week, and in general, the villa was clean, short walk to the beach (across the road, well-lit path at night), and an overall relaxing place to stay. Everyone in charge of running the villa was extremely quick to respond to questions or requests (we asked to borrow snorkels and received two pairs within the hour). Only two small complaints, not worth docking a full star over:
Location (not the villa’s fault):
- a few miles away from the downtown area, you really need to rent a car. We tried renting bikes, but to get to the grocery store you need to cross a highway. Ended up trading in the bikes for a car after a day.
- most of the restaurants and all of the shops are about 3-4 miles away. There’s a handful of restaurants within walking distance, but not enough to last a week.
Kitchen
- we weren’t expecting to make extravagant meals, but we thought there would be more kitchen staples provided than there was (e.g., salt, pepper, olive oil, etc.).
- there were a handful of other spices that we believe other guests probably purchased and left there
