Fantastic Spring Break at Villa Layla
Our two week stay with adult kids in March '25 was outstanding! The Villa is as shown in pictures (or, better), responsiveness and support from Berenice was great, and attentiveness from Anna and Elder living on the expansive property was exceptional. Highly recommend staying at Berenice's Villa Layla!
