Die Betreuung durch die Agentur war gut. Wir haben uns wohlgefühlt. ##### Frank S. Stayed 14 nights in Oct 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### M G. 7 Oct 2024 Liked: Location Disliked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Not so amazing-poor support Wi-FI does not work on the second floor. Poor check-in process. Got the instruction for the key pad code 1 hour late. We were charged for some towels which had already some of the spots that were reported by manager. Make sure you take pictures of all towels and linens because you run the chance that you will be charged for replacements like we were. We never thought of reporting the stain spots thinking that it looked like normal wear and tear which generally refers to the expected deterioration of a rental unit as a result of the tenant's everyday use. This can include things like loose doorknobs, worn out carpet, towels, and minor scratches on the walls and floors. Also, I should had taken pictures of the water quality of the pool which was poor and had many green algae spots. This was reported to Steve on our arrival. Maintenance showed up a few days after our arrival to clean it and added some chemicals. The pool was not the greatest when we left. Furthermore, the fire detector started beeping during our first night in the villa. The battery had to be taken out at 2AM in the morning. We reported the issue by e-mail and was told that someone would come to replace the battery which was never done for our entire stay. I feel that the charge for the towels is very close to a scam. Some of the spots shown on the pictures(towels) were already there. honestly, they look like the normal wear and tear which generally refers to the expected deterioration of a rental unit. ##### M G.

Pool is a good size and worth paying for the heating in April. Walking distance to the beach and a few bars and restaurants. Local supermarket very expensive, worth a longer walk to Aldi or spa. If unable to get an early check in, it’s worth looking at Scooby’s bar/pool. Will provide entertainment for the day aswell as having a luggage storage area.

Villa had more than enough to keep us all entertained and it certainly helped with the great weather. Although the security deposit for a group of friends is a bit steep and there was an absence of a proper walk around (still awaiting communication regarding security deposit refund), we really enjoyed our stay. Karen was really helpful and her suggestions of activities were really good, including water park and fish restaurant. We were not happy about check in, although it states 4pm - we put our bags on the property and it was already cleaned and ready to be moved in, we kept checking in with the 24 hr line, but kept being told to call later and they don’t have the information. It would have been nice to check and allow us to move in early if it was ready, since we pay for that day. Also we were told the pool would be checked, but this was not done and the towels were also not changed halfway through our stay as mentioned by staff. Fortunately our stay was only a week, if this didn’t happen during a 7+ day stay, this would have been a bigger issue. The pool, table tennis table and pool table were good additions. A table next to the outside bbq would be a welcomed addition. I would like to say a huge thanks to Karen and Olivia for assistance, especially Karen who sorted issues with internet and outside lights as soon as she was aware. ##### Myron W.

The location was ideal close to other beaches and places along the coast. Would like to say that Olivia I was communicating with regarding all the arrangements was very helpful all the way making the holiday one to remember ##### Steve C.
