Super house and great location
My children and I absolutely love this place. It's very new inside and well decorated. Spacious and clean. Extra linens, comfy beds, well outfitted kitchen. Views and the fact that you can walk for like 20 minutes and get to the Sea with beautiful views of the mountains. Definitely worthwhile!

At Home in the Land of Fire and Ice
Although the villa is accurately described as peaceful, it is much more. The villa is spacious and filled with light providing a positive, upbeat atmosphere. The amenities and the home provided us time to rest and relax.
