Great villa in amazing location
The villa was huge, all of the rooms were large which was great as there was 8 of us staying. The pool was a good size & there were plenty of sun loungers & seats. The villa is in a quiet residential area but only a 15 minute walk to the nearest shops. We used Uber to get around which was cheap & reliable. The villa company has it's own mini bus which we used for transfers from the airport & we also booked a few excursions with them which was very economical & we could plan our trips to suit us. The villa company staff were very friendly & helpful. Things that could be improved some of the toilet seats did not fit so were not stable, we did not get dish towels until Tuesday when the cleaners came. A few light bulbs were out or missing. These are pretty minor things. I would definitely book this villa again or another of Villa Dumas' villas.

Great villa
Great stay in an amazing villa. It is a little dated but that didn't bother us Bars, restaurants and a supermarket is walkable in about 15/20 mins but the walk is sand and riugh grass and also very hilly so not great with a pram but no issues without i it. Uber brilliant to get around

Excellent family villa
We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful villa. The pool and additional games facilities were perfect for a relaxing week. A car was essential for getting around but I believe the villa owners do offer this service. The beach at Olhos De Agua was beautiful and very family friendly.

A beautiful villa
This is a spacious villa with beautiful surroundings with easy access to many lovely places. We used uber which was fast and efficient. The décor is a little tired and the dishwasher did not work but Cindy, the manager took a full note and was helpful in terms of anything we needed to know. She offered great advice as to where to visit etc. We had a fabulous time!

Spacious villa
We had a great holiday here. Pools were of a decent size, the villa was huge, fairly secluded and quiet. It had lots of storage and seating. Was a bonus having the table tennis, pool table and air hockey. Air conditioning was much needed and worked well. 10 to 15 minute walk cross country to a few eateries and shop. Ubers were super easy to use. Pool towels were provided. Kitchen was well equipped but could’ve done with a few baking trays and a few more tea spoons. Washing machine and iron provided and a line to hang the washing which was really handy. Would stay here again

Overall stay was fantastic we all had a great time - the only observation is we do like to eat in and there was a shortage of pans and baking trays - colander - there could be an update on the bathrooms as well but apart from that everything and everyone had an amazing time and we would recommend this villa and may even return again in the future although we normally try different locations for our vacations TT19
