Stayed with 5 friends. The villa is rustic and secluded, and offers spacious bedrooms and 3 modern bathrooms. Nice pool and BBQ area, good for a staying if you want to spend time away from the big towns.
Tennis court is old, net broken, rackets broken. I wouldn’t book if you’re serious about tennis (as we are). Or hopefully the owner will invest some money and give the tennis court life back. If they do then I would recommend for tennis.
The villa needs money spending on it. It’s getting tired, aside from the new bathrooms, the equipment (cutlery, dishwasher etc) is getting old.
You need a car. The nearest supermarket is 20 mins drive away, and we needed to do 3 big shops while we were there) so a taxi would make it a pain. (We hired a car for €130 for the week though, so worth doing).
The maintenance person “paco” has a house on site (not intrusive though). But he has a dog which is in a cage at the back in sad conditions. I raised this to the owner who kindly agreed to take in the dog (and I really hope this is the case). Paco also had a bird in a tiny cage at the front of his house. Sad to see people still treat animals this way. He should let this bird free also.
In summary, it’s a nice villa if you want to get away from things and chill out, have nice BBQ in the evenings and dip in the nice pool. Don’t go if the tennis is the reason for booking or if you are a animal lover. Thanks to Dani for the comms over WhatsApp and hopefully taking in the poor little dog who deserves a loving family home.
