Review Details:
Positive Aspects: Idyllic setting. Beautiful views from the veranda. Wonderful pool, great on the hot days. Kitchen and outdoor grill made for easy meals, and lovely outdoor eating.
Negative Aspects: No air conditioning in the main villa even though it was advertised with A/C. A/C only available in one room in a small building near the pool. It was very hot when we arrived and we only had one working fan for three days. We received 2 other fans later, but 3 of the 5 bedrooms we needed had with no fans all week. The washing machine and dishwasher were erratic.The house was over-run with tiny ants in the food, shower and in the beds. One of our group was bitten by a tick infected with Lyme's Disease, and he came home with a very bad infection. Guests should be alerted to that possibility.
