PARADISE ............ so very nearly!!
The location of this property is absolutely amazing .........the property had many amazing features ........for us it was a holiday of a lifetime ...something I could only really have dreamed about so we really stretched ourselves to pay for it.
Unfortunately there were several things that let it down and really need to be explained clearly on the advert:
1. The pool, wasnt ready, it was dirty, wasnt full as described (infinity pool) and was a long way from the villa up a lot (over 100) stone steps. The deck was alos unusable
2. Two of the showers were not working (they did get better when we asked)
3. No air con in top room ....needs making clear!!
4. Kitchen facilities poor...... pans old and nonstick long gone....... some of the utensils were put in the kitchen on the day we left.
5. Electricity kept cutting out
6. The cost of boat trip to the mainland was £60
7. Water was charged
Most of these we could cope with and didnt spoil the holiday, Viel did compensate us for some by allowing us the roasted pig and bottle of wine free of charge.
However the worst thing which did affect the holiday was that we all got bitten by sandflies. For a couple of a group this resulted in us not being able to sleep on 2/3 of the nights.
We do not blame you for the sandflies but it would have been extremely useful to have been for warned so that we could have brought appropriate treatments.
Sorry to have so many complaints but we really feel the need to let people know.
Finnally though I need to reiterate that we did enjoy the wonderful location, the amazing views, the lovely sea and incredible starry nights
