To start with the bad things: there is little privacy. You have to keep your shutters closed, because if it is not the housekeeper or the gardener who is busy right in front of the studio, two meters from your bed, the host is, also early in the morning. The pool is not private, it is used by the host as well (he had a pool party when we were staying, unannounced, so we left and spent the afternoon elsewhere).
The apartment is nice, though it could use a female touch. The dogs are certainly nice, but they also come into the studio and their smell is in the carpet.
