"Spacious villa, clean and good location. Check in was easy, Olga was easy to communicate with and was very responsive. Pool was warm but smaller than the photos made it look!Villa was a little tired in places but in no way did it spoil our holiday."

"villa was lovely, very private, quiet and relaxing, great mountain view at the back of house, had great glass roomed areas at the back which you can admire the view from the indoor jacuzzi/doa or just relaxing in a chair, great in bad weather to have that area to chill in, the only thing I would say is there is a lot of local dogs in the surrounding properties, so there is a lot of constant barking all day through to the evening, it wasn't to bad at first but when its constant all day and all night every day it does get a bit frustrating and annoying, also there is a black and white cat which is constantly at the house constantly meowing it's really loud and sounds like a baby crying, there is food and a cat house in the outside laundry area, not sure if it is a resident of the house or wether it's a stray, but don't feel like it's up to the people who rent the house to feed it and look after it, obviously this is what has been happening that's why it's constantly there, with the dogs barking and the cat meowing was annoying, there could be a few more items in the kitchen to use for eg measuring jugs, pizza cutter and a few more things, very close to airport, lidl and aldi just 20 min car drive, so great location, I would stay there again lovely spacious, comfortable villa "

"The villa is situated next to the ancient volcano of Mount Arena and as we are botanists we found it very interesting.The villa is an 'eco-house' which means that the hot water relies on sunshine. Unfortunately (and I think this is unusual) we had nine days of cold cloudy weather. This meant that the hot water was very erratic. I shaved in cold water evry morning and we didn't use the shower much because it was sometimes cold, sometimes warm. There is a gas cylinder heater which was useful in the evenings.It was too cold to use the pool but it was very clean.We cooked in every evening. One of the rings on the cooker doesn't work but the owner seems to be aware of this so I expect that will be fixed soon. There were very few pans for cooking but the owner kindly lent us a saucepan. As improvements I would suggest a couple more saucepans with lids and possibly a microwave. I thought the breakages deposit of about 500 was rather high, I could not see how you could do that much damage as all the furniture is pretty basic.If all that sounds a bit negative I should say that the owner was very helpful and easily contactable.

"Everything lovely. Shared toilet and shower which were clean and tidy. "

"My wife and I have just returned from a six week stay and we had a very good holiday. The house is very well equipped. There is a high level of security as the grounds can only be accessed via an electric gate system. The bed is comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped and the living room is huge. Whilst there is a table and chairs outdoors, there is also a dining area within the living room for cooler evenings. The house is a little dark inside with a quirky layout, but has lots of character and is in a peaceful location. A couple of things worth mentioning. Upon arrival we were greeted by a number of very persistent cats who were trying to get into the house. During our first week they continually sat on the outside furnishings and begged for food at the doors. This was a problem for me as I am allergic to pet hairs. However, the problem was solved when I bought a water pistol. A big problem is the number of flies at the property, probably due to the greenery in the garden. Although fly swats and repellent were on hand at the property, we were constantly having to swat them whilst seated outside. It was also impossible to keep them out of the house. The property is quite a bit above sea level and the temperature is noticeably lower than on the coast.We had a couple of problems during our stay but Ana, the owner, was easy to contact annd was very quick to respond and sort the problems outI think that the positives far outweigh the negatives and we enjoyed our stay"
