A lovely place to unwind, The villa was clean and spacious, providing enough room for our group, We enjoyed the proximity to the sandy bays and the scenic cliff paths, It was nice to have a barbecue option in the garden, though we mostly dined out at the local pizzerias, The only downside was the lack of Wi-Fi, but we managed just fine

Maison pleine de charme. Très joli appartement, idéalement situé dans un emplacement exceptionnel. Les seuls petits points négatifs concernent le mobilier et la cuisine, qui sont un peu anciens, ainsi que certains équipements de cuisine, dont la qualité pourrait être améliorée. Cela dit, la personne qui s’occupe de la location est très réactive et particulièrement sympathique, ce qui est très appréciable. Je reviendrai sans aucun problème !

Logement spacieux, très bien situé à quelques mètres de la plage. Petit bémol pour la literie vieillissante (les matelas demandent à être changés). Pensez aux draps, aux serviettes et à la poêle à frire.
