Views are superb and the villa is so clean and beautiful. Ensuite bathrooms off every room and overall it's paradise. The person who met us at the villa was really friendly and helpful (and fun). Only warning is that the drive is super steep. If you're hiring a car then advice is to get one with a bit of power to get up the hill. Overall it's superb. Thank you!! ##### Susie D.
