We had a really lovely time at this house — it’s spacious, surrounded by lots of greenery, and the overall atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing. The pool was absolutely beautiful and made our stay even more enjoyable. The shaded garden and good isolation from neighbors created a real sense of privacy, which we truly appreciated. The interior offered plenty of space for a group, and most of us felt very comfortable. However, there were a few issues that future guests should be aware of. First, some of the doors didn’t close properly, which was inconvenient and should definitely be fixed. Second, there was not enough space for the ninth person — this should be clearly mentioned in the listing, or at least shown in the photos to manage expectations. Also, the washing machine didn’t work during our stay, which was disappointing, especially for a longer trip. And one small but annoying detail: the kitchen really lacked proper knives – for a house of this standard, better kitchen equipment would make a big difference. All in all, it’s a beautiful place with lots of potential — just a few improvements and more transparency in the listing would make it perfect.
