A dream come true…
Words don’t even come close to express how magical this villa is. Truly a hidden gem. The outside seating areas are remarkable. The gardens are lovely. The pool is great for an afternoon of relaxation. The pictures do not do it justice. Upon arrival we were blown away with the space, the items available for use in the house and the attention to detail regarding design and comfort.
By far the best we’ve stayed. Worth every penny. And we’ve traveled all over the world. We cannot wait to find a reason to come back.
Take time to explore all of the local gems. People are so kind and accommodating.
Thank you for a magical holiday.

A little piece of heaven
This property is a wonderful hidden gem. The decor and layout is quite romantic and charming. The bed was super comfortable, and the soaking bathtub is absolutely amazing! I used it every night of our stay! We watched beautiful sunsets, and swam in the pool in the middle of October. It was quite cold, but we had to at least try it out! We hope to stay again soon!
