Villa Fortune
Excellent location, excellent management company in Saint Cyprus-Georgii, Anastasia and Mathew.
Any problems promptly dealt with within their management remit.
To make this villa ‘as described’ the gas hob/oven needs to be replaced (oven will not stay lit and burners fail to electronically ignite, when manually lit the gas flow to hob is stuttering-cooking in this home from home is challenging).
The ensuite shower is not fit for purpose, it is neither a shower cubicle (there is a shower curtain over a shower base) nor a wet room, the floor gets flooded unless you hold the shower head and keep flow low, it is not a problem with the shower head, the curtain is inadequate and the base is very slow to drain even during a short shower.
The outside area is great, the pool and garden is lovely and well and regularly maintained by the pleasant Saint Cyprus gentlemen.
Care needs to be taken in description of pool furniture, and estimated electricity costs for reasonable use including A/C (paid in cash from final meter reading pre-departure) need to more accurately reflect the true added expense. €10/day can be achieved with careful use of A/C otherwise it could potentially be exorbitant at the end of stay.The cleaning fee paid upfront is for post departure cleaning/bedlinen/towel refresh-no ancillary service unless requested at extra cost.
With the above relatively simple but major issues resolved-a great villa in a great spot, and Saint Cyprus staff are excellent.
