Family birthday holiday by the beach
The villa was perfect. As a big family holiday for my birthday i wanted everyone to be comfortable and with the 4 ensuites and great living space this was spot on. The pool was a great size and we loved playing pool by the pool. Fabulous breakfast cafe by the supermarket. Lovely restaurant on the nearest beach 5 minutes walk away. Could not fault the location. You don't need a car and if going further ubers are great.

Holiday of a life time
The Villa was fantastic. There were 10 of us and at no time did we feel on top of each other. The rooms were spacious a nd spotlessly clean., with lots of space for clothes etc. There is a well.equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and washing machine and iron.

Thank you so much Olivia and her team for the wonderful stay at this stunning villa in the loveliest location. See you next year!!
