Manuel was incredibly communicative, and very accommodating of our flight times that did not line up well with the check in/ check out times. The house is lovely and larger than we expected. We did not need to use the air con, being early May, but managed to get hot enough lying in the sun on the roof deck to jump into the pool. There are many outdoor areas to relax in, meaning you can follow or avoid the sun around the house throughout the day. The garden and pool are regularly maintained by a very lovely man who I had several lovely conversations with, despite a significant language barrier. We arrived on a Sunday meaning the nearby shops and supermarket were closed so we ordered pizzas from a local restaurant. We would recommend hiring a car as the house is within driving distance of some lovely towns, beaches and lookout points.
