A villa that feels like home

The villa is super clean with all the comforts of home! Bedding and linen as good as a 5* hotel. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook anything. The bathrooms are modern and clean ,perfect . Manuela greeted us , showed us the property and also had a lovely platter of meat, cheese and fresh bread abd lical wine on arrival..so nice after a few hours of driving . The pool is clean and well maintained. The villa is located higher up so a car is necessary if you want to eat out. Manuela offered us parking at her property that helped alot as parking can be difficult beachfront and there is taxis available to take back up. We loved our stay . Communication was excellent. They even offered to deliver us a pizza when we were trying to find pizza delivery. One of the best villas we have ever stayed at! Thank you!

Stunning villa, immaculately maintained with a fabulous host

On arrival we were met by Stella who gave us a guided tour. She was so friendly and made us feel so welcome. The whole villa has stunning oak floors & the air conditioning works perfectly 🥰 From your first step in the door its WOW! 2 bedrooms both en suite with lots of quality furnishings and lots of shorage space. Showers are brilliant too. The kitchen has everything you’ll need plus lots of extras. American size fridge/freezer, cafetiere, microwave, whisk, sandwich maker etc. Big dining table, immaculate crockery & cutlery. So many secret draws inside draws etc. Large leather seating area and huge flatscreen tv with satellite TV. Outside is just as impressive with good sized spotless pool, sunbeds, bbq, shaded areas, umbrellas. The balconies off the kitchen and bedrooms open to beautiful vistas of the area, church & sea. Would recommend 100% to anyone. Added bonus is the villa next doir is owned by her parents and sleeps 8 so can be booked together ❤️ We would stsy here again in a heartbeat. Fabulous holiday memories.

Sejour de rêve entre mer et montagne

La villa de Stela a tout ce dont vous pouvez rêver, pour des vacances à la fois dépaysantes et reposantes. Et Stela et son papa ne ménagent pas leurs efforts pour s’assurer que vous ne manquiez de rien. Recommandé les yeux fermés !
