The design of the villa, the views, the amenities, the cleanliness, and the space! Truly an entertainers paradise. We stayed here (5 of us,3 young kids). We enjoyed the space, the pool, the view, and the lizards! The host welcomed us with a bottle of wine, & drinks in the fridge, and felt like home immediately. The host (Steve) is top-notch! He's friendly, responds quickly, and eager to help in any way! 10 stars for the Host. THE BAD: While everything about the property is rainbows and butterflies -- PLEASE BE WARNED:YOU MUST HAVE A 4WD VEHICLE TO ACCESS THE PROPERTY!The listing indicated that there were some steep hills getting here, and we completely underestimated the meaning of steep. When they say STEEP, imagine your seating position in a rocket launching to space. We had a 2WD SUV, and unfortunately, it wouldn't make it to the top of the hill where the house was. The car gave out, and rolled back and hit the guard posts that saved our lives. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BE CAREFUL HERE. Our car had to be recovered off the hill, and it soured our stay here. Coming and going was not pleasant and it made it impossible for us to relax here. For the remaining days, we ended up parking at the bottom of the hill and had to walk up each time we came home which was a challenging hike! For experienced hillside drivers, this place is 10/10! ![The View from the pool](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c3eab555-f16a-4301-9fdf-d527e293e622-1767281123015.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![the view from inside the house](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/57644256-f5e2-4d71-8d5c-a14ec1391520-1767281122885.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![car getting stuck](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1d747d47-8b32-4e22-9812-ecc7a29247f9-1767281122822.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![view from where we got stuck](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f3fbc4c2-a61f-47c4-b3ba-f2ab1e1adf76-1767281123155.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Bobby R.
