I’m giving this stay 3.5 out of 5 stars. While the property had some positive aspects, there were several issues that affected our overall experience.
The listing advertised the beach as a 5-minute walk, but it was actually closer to a 15-minute walk or about a 5-minute drive, which felt misleading. The villa itself was somewhat dated, and during our stay there was a scheduled power outage that we were not informed about in advance. The host only explained it after the outage occurred and we made her aware of said outtage.
The linens were adequate, but the overall atmosphere was average. The pool was not as clean as expected, and the entrance to the property did not feel particularly welcoming or secure.
Additionally, there were numerous domestic pets roaming the property that were not mentioned in the listing or included as part of the advertised experience. While some guests may not mind animals, I believe this is something future visitors should be made aware of before booking.
Overall, the stay was acceptable, but better communication, more accurate descriptions, and improved property maintenance would have made for a much better experience.
