Pros:
-This villa is lovely, great use of space
-The large patio overlooks the ocean, the resort pools, and is worth the whole trip.
-The resort itself is beautiful and relaxing, flowers, peacocks, very well kept.
-water volleyball and beach volleyball every day
-The pool service staff was top notch.
-The food is decent both in quality and price.
-The Marina district is close to the airport, easy to get to.
-We had a last minute adult kid able to join us and although that seemed to upset the owner, we paid an upcharge and apparently she was ok with that.
-The owner agent Monika was finally able to text with me personally and helped resolve issues quickly.
Cons:
-Villa is older so musty smells and moldy corners.
-The master shower head did not function for most of the week and although I spent a considerable amount of time waiting for multiple mechanic visits and orchestrating the repair, the owner did not offer any discount.
-The hotel treats you very different since this villa is privately owned.
-if you want to spend a lot of time in the Central or Romantic districts, the drive back and forth gets very old.
