The terrace, pool and bbq are private and only shared occaisionally with the friendly owners who will be happy to share their knowledge on local attractions and places of interest, however your privacy will be greatly respected.

Amenities/Facilities provided

 

Accessibility
Although the apartment is on the ground floor it has a few steps into the garden and the apartment entrance so would therefore not be suitable for wheel chair access.

Outside
The apartment is accessed through its own private gate which opens into a private garden for the sole use of apartment guests. There are comfortable seating areas both at the rear of the apartment and a shady spot under the olive tree. The pretty cottage garden extends up the side of the property and leads to private entrance and then on to the pool area. The pool, terrace, and bbq may also be accessed by the large glass sliding doors from the apartment. Just outside these doors is a relaxing chill out area under the shade of the lemon tree, where you can enjoy breakfast, or relax with a cool drink. During the evening as darkness falls, the garden lights up with twinkling lights in the lemon tree, and atmospheric lighting around the garden, all of which is controlled within the apartment. Sun loungers are also available for your use.
