The pool area and view are fantastic, but to get good views anywhere you will often have steep access. Villa Franchesca has this. Max kindly transported us and our luggage up an very steep, bendy rough track from our parking spot, but this did not help us with walking up and down it to get to the car. We have some walking difficulties, so for us it was a problem. If you are fit and able bodied it will be fine.
The villa has no AC, I enquired about this before booking and was reassured it would be ok as they have fans and get sea breeze. However the fans were far too noisy to sleep with and if you leave doors open, there could be a security issue for us.
But the pool is lovely, the kitchen equipment is top notch and generally the property is really nice.
One bedroom leads off the main one, but has no window and no door so zero privacy and again hot. There is a mezzanine bedroom that is above the lounge, so to get any air there you would have to leave the main house doors open.
We are just a couple so this did not affect us, just to let future guests know the layout.
No restaurants to walk to, so you do need to drive out (and walk up the steep driveway).
We only stayed 2 nights in mid June so not much of an issue, but if we were staying in even hotter months (we had 30 degrees), the walk and lack of AC would have been a problem for us.
Max was very responsive to contact.
