This villa could be so much more. It looked fine on the the pictures but close up not so good.
Pro’s
Plenty of room
Good location
Not overlooked and good view from the pool
Comfy mattresses
Quiet ceiling fans
New carpets
New appliances
Plenty of crockery and cooking utensils
Con’s
Blinds in most bedrooms broken or non functional
No blinds in master bathroom
Dirty around most door handles and all stair spindles
No working pool table cues (all tips missing or broken)
BBQ too dirty to use
Lani netting broken and flapping in the wind letting in bugs and lizards
Stains on sofa in front living room and tatty scatter cushion on sofas in back room.
I could see the appliances had been replaced and new carpets throughout so some effort has been made to upgrade this property. In times of covid 19 cleanliness should be top priority, scabby old labels stuck to light switches and dirty marks around door handles and stair spindles are not. The broken blinds and polyester sheets in the master bedroom were a big issue. The blinds were stuck in the open position and we were not able to close them. Some thin makeshift curtains had been put up, these are not showing on the website pictures. These didn’t cover the whole window and were to thin to block the sunlight. As the master bedroom is at the back of the property the sun heated the bedroom and bathroom as there were no blinds in there also. So it was uncomfortably hot even with the air con and fan on 24/7. To compound this the polyester sheets and pillow cases made it a sticky nights sleep. I did manage to find cotton sheets eventually in one of the wardrobes and I changed them. I also had to hang towels over the poles in the bathroom and a blanket over the pole in the bedroom to block the sun.
The property could do with an improvement in maintenance, cleanliness and a modest investment would make it so much nicer
