Really great service from the host, who welcomed us upon arrival. By arrangement he had delivered pizza to the whole family and it was super nice when we arrived late. Had good contact with the host several times, who fixed minor challenges. Howevre, there is no minimarket or tavern ind the village. ##### Marianne This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gloria 3 Jul 2023 #### A great social setting We had loads of pizza and food and drinks on arrival!

Eigenaar was top, alles was meer dan in orde. We zijn 's avonds laat toegekomen in de villa en er stonden pizza's klaar, er was ook een hele resem aan eetwaren aanwezig zodat we zelfs de volgende ochtend alles hadden voor een lekker ontbijt. Ook de cleaning service was op en top in orde. Er werd aan al onze wensen voldoen. Zeker een villa die op alle vlakken uitstekend is. ##### Imelda D.

A food “basket” was waiting upon our arrival which was plenty for the 8 of us until we could go shopping the next day. The property was very spacious and clean. Helen the cleaner came in every 2/3 days to clean the Villa, change beds and towels. We had a fantastic stay and was made to feel welcome from the owner as soon as we arrived. Such a beautiful island with lots to see. Would definitely go back. ##### Christine C.
