Perfect Retreat
We stayed for one week in the middle of September, a perfect combination of weather and lack of crowds. Benoit is a charming and gracious host, quite easily the best communications I've had in many years of being a VRBO client. The owner suggests meeting the property manager in the local town of Bonifacio upon arrival as the villa is tricky to find, this is good advice. We found the property location on google maps and navigated ourselves but unless you are very confident with using your car navigation system I would advise against it. If you are looking for privacy and solitude this is the place for you, very quiet and tranquil. The villa is very spacious and well equipped although the pool side umbrellas need replacing, perhaps for the next season. The pool itself is a perfect size for adult swimming or children's recreation, all surrounded by a well tended Mediterranean garden. The grounds may not be suitable for younger children or people with mobility issues, a more formal footpath from the parking area to the house would be useful as the ground is rather uneven. There are four generous bedrooms and a comfortable living space with an extensive library of "coffee table" books, a large screen TV and sophisticate HiFi system. WiFi is available but, a minor point, does not reach to all bedrooms. The kitchen is well equipped and the "plancha" an added bonus. There are numerous restaurants in the local town and several supermarkets. There are plenty of car parks but prices vary, none particularly expensive. A visit to the "Citadel" is well worth it as a tourist attraction. Overall an excellent stay, we would return.
