Déjà, ce n'est pas à 10 mn de marche de la plage. Comptez en moyenne 25 mn.2 chambres plutôt de belle taille. Toute petite salle de bain avec le toilette à l'intérieur. Elle serait à rénover. Salon ok. Cuisine : trop de vaisselle parfois difficile d'y accéder (trop haut). Elle serait aussi à moderniser. Néanmoins, la propriété est entouré d'un très beau et grand jardin. De la maison, la vue est sympa (surtout, préférez Elena qui est plus en hauteur). La maison possède 4 terrasses qui permettent de choisir ombre ou soleil. La petite piscine permet de se rafraîchir. Les chats sont de bons (ou pas) chasseurs et restent à l'extérieur de la maison. Ça peut être une étape sympa pour rejoindre l'aéroport. Quant au prix de 1200 la semaine, il est trop élevé par rapport à la location que nous avions les 2 semaines précédentes offrant une qualité de prestations bien au-delà. Mais j'insiste, ça reste une bonne adresse.

Une jolie maison, très propre, au calme et entourée d'oliviers. Des terrasses tout autour de la maison pour profiter ou se protéger du soleil. Les propriétaires accueillants viennent tous les 2-3 jours nettoyer la piscine et arroser le jardin. Ils nous ont aussi proposé plusieurs fois le changement des serviettes ainsi que les draps sur un séjour de 15 jours. Transats, lits, balancelles, parasols, des petites courses appréciables à notre arrivée : tout est fait pour un séjour paradisiaque.
