The cool room and lovely pool was a welcome sight on a 40° C summer day!
Beautiful accommodation and friendly service. We were warned in advance that the walls are not soundproof between the units and we experienced this first hand when our neighbors got up at 4:00am the next morning (and their alarm went off every 5 minutes from 5:00-5:30am). But despite this, we had a very nice stay - we enjoyed cooling off in the pool and breakfast was delicious.

Pretty.
It was a comfortable place to stay. They saw a cottage that was very considerate. It is really a very beautiful place. Breakfast was delicious. The villas are for 4 persons, but definitely not 4 adults. Rather 2 adults and 2 children. There were no towels available for the additional persons. The villa appears as if it is set up for 2. The communal Jacuzzi and laundry services are only available at additional costs which are not made clear on the advertisement. We asked that no cleaning be done during our stay. We went out for the day and upon returning we could see that the request had been declined and that someone was indeed inside our villa.

Disappointing at first, but better later.
We ended up staying licks yes, but. Upon our arrival, the receptionist immediately apologized that we had to sleep in the room according to the reception - only and last room. She offered that we could move on Sunday morning. We had quite a bit of trouble turning on the TV, and when we came back from a concert and wanted to watch TV, there was no way we could make it work. It was quite cold and there was no air conditioning. The heater that was there was broken, and when my wife went to report it, the lady simply offered to "go pack it away". Some Alfa Romeo club was also at home there and the next morning it was quite rowdy in the adjacent breakfast area. The wiring to the TV was sloppy and the toilet seat loose. There was no hanging cupboard and very little seating in the room and bathroom. Sunday morning we moved to a much better room and, although there was still no wardrobe or hangers, it was a better option and we were even able to enjoy the last of the Olympics on TV.

The visit and service were nice, Lettie and Rina tried.
I am extremely disappointed that I booked a room with air conditioning and only got a ceiling fan, the incandescent light didn't work either. The shower pressure is weak. We stayed uncomfortably, it clearly said the room was a standard room in the main house. This was a standard room in the restaurant.

Beautiful but impractical with sleeping space upstairs and bathroom and white stairs against white floor.
The facilities are beautiful, with a lovely swimming pool. Although the unit is presented cleanly in white, it is impractical with the bathroom on the lower floor and the bedroom on the loft. The white floor and white stairs did not create enough contrast and created an unsafe feeling. The room also did not cool down at night because there was no good air flow and with load shedding the air conditioning did not work. It was also disturbing that the room was not dark enough with windows that were too high for curtains.
