Great villa, lovely location but a few shortfalls.
We have rented dozens of villas all over Europe and therefore feel we know what makes them perfect. This is a great villa for two which is why we chose it however we are paying for two bedrooms for personal reasons and were therefore surprised that only one bed was made up. To be fair, an email to Valentina resulted in her bringing extra bed linen to us promptly. We were also surprised that there were no house notes detailing local information on restaurants, supermarkets, beaches, etc and where they were located. It would also have been useful to know where to find the bbq (which was in a locked store along with the washing machine).
In all other villa rentals there has been a welcome pack with the basics such as bread, milk, butter and cheese. Fortunately we arrived whilst the supermarket was still open. In the past we have sometimes been invited to pay a small charge for this which we would have been happy to do. We had a bottle of wine, a bottle of water and one toilet roll, nothing else.
No chopping board, an essential item in any kitchen. No bbq tongs making grilling a bit hazardous! No Wi-fi. Whilst of a generation where this is less important we feel a younger family might consider this a drawback nowadays. A little plastic table for the poolside would be a good idea.
Aside from these issues we had a lovely relaxing time and enjoyed the local amenities once we found them. Beautiful sunsets and staggering coastal scenery. We would certainly return.
