Our family was staying at the villa for a whole month in the summer. We are a calm, cultured family, consisting of 2 children (6 and 1 years old), me and my wife, my sister and parents. In my review I will try to describe the villa and its owner without emotions, based only on the bare facts. Cons: 1. Giovanni’s “hospitality” began to bore us after some time. Giovanni almost every day came to the villa (on the grounds of checking pH level in the pool, catching mice, etc.). He appeared without informing us about his arrival and almost always went to the kitchen and other parts of the house. The request not to violate our privacy was perceived by him very painfully, and he kept violating it. It’s better to register in the contract in advance that Giovanni will not violate your privacy without the urgent need more than once a week. 2. The contract says that if more than 300 kV electricity is spent a week, the customer must pay. On the first day Giovanni said that there was no need to do it and he gave us electricity as a gift (no one asked him for it). After that, each time he was watching how many air conditioners were switched on, where the windows were open, etc. In a negative emotional tone he kept telling us that we spent a lot of electricity (although I offered to pay). One day, there was a 40 degree heat, and the electricity went out for 30 minutes! It was very unpleasant in such a heat with small children. Do not take a gift from Giovanni, then you will regret it ) 3.Some time after our arrival, in the evening we began to notice the mice in the kitchen. I told Giovanni about it, sent him a photo, but he got personal and said that mice’s emergence was our fault. Before check-in, make sure that Giovanni has solved this problem. 4.Broken lamp in the ground, which is located near the pool and illuminates the garden in the evening, gave our child an electric shock when he walked between the palm trees!!! It was awful. Ask Giovanni if he repaired the lamp. There were a lot of negative emotions associated with this incident. 5. On the second floor there are 3 bedrooms. They have very low angled ceilings. Unfortunately, even knowing this feature, we always banged our heads at night (. Keep it in mind. It’s not very noticeable in the photo. 6. Giovanni doesn’t speak English, which makes it very difficult to solve some issues. Try to involve his son in the discussion, he is an intelligent and nice young guy. My little kid broke the drive of Giovanni’s old DVD player. Its cost is about 20 euros (it’s maximum). Keep in mind that there may be no DVD player, of course if someone needs it :) Pros: 1. Large and beautiful garden! 2. A splendid large swimming pool. The...
