The villa has everything needed, super clean, well mantained and in a quiet area. We loved. All staff at the property were very kind and helpful. What to say about the villa's view? Just amazing, sand & sea just a few steps. Internet wifi stopped to work, but this wasn't a issue for us, as the plan was to rest and disconnect from the world.

La villa dice Ocean View y no es cierto. Es muy cerca de la playa pero no tiene vista al mar.

Not worth price; unresponsive team; Nice beach tho
Nice property, beautiful views. But way overpriced... No potable water. Only told after booking, but it was made clear. Spanish a must. Arrival/check in was a little confusing. They moved our apt from initial assignment. Confusing to find actual unit, I had to get out and walk (in heat, light rain), wander around to check while family waited in my car. First impression- everything looked good. However since we were moved, no longer had Wi-Fi code. We reached out to points of contact listed on the reservation info, did not hear back. Reached out to owner finally, did not hear back! We finally heard back from one of the listed contacts -- the next day! This is ridiculous. What if something was really wrong?! Dishwasher but no pods provided. And the dishes were filthy! So I started vacation by washing all the dishes! Plenty of towels though; rest of apt was clean. No laundry detergent either. Many apts will provide a little " starter pack". Here, nothing but dish soap, used sponge, and paper towels. Also no salt, pepper, and no coffee! Several brief power outages during our stay, no flashlights and it's pitch black. Extremely noisy at times, huge family took over the pool near our unit - very small pool full of 15 people and loud music. Unit was relatively well insulated though. Finally, bring EVERYTHING you need. Area is very undeveloped. Large grocery store is 20 mins+ car ride away. Mini Mart same. Cafe on site not good. Restaurants in town very rustic/shacks.
