Villa with beautiful views

Very easy check in with lockbox. Villa was spacious and comfortable with fabulous views. Inside was clean and tidy, outside is due for a wash and sweep.For people with limited mobilty there are two flights of external concrete stairs down from the carport to the villa entrance.
