The living space and outside space was fabulous, as was the location easy 10 min walk to cafe, bar, and restaurants. Downside were the bathrooms which did not have full height showers and strange location of toilet upstairs where it is squashed up against the bath so no room for legs when seated. bathrooms ##### Judith ### 6/10 Okay #### Jimmy W. Sep 18, 2019 Liked: Location #### Nice pool Villa a bit tired. Pool was nice and not far from beach ##### Jimmy W. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Andis H., Brooklyn, NY Aug 28, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Such a scam Worst vacation ever! By far. Nothing like the photos in the website So worn down Everything 30 years old. Do a favor to yourself and dont use this website ##### Andis H. ### 8/10 Good #### Lisa L. Jul 29, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Casa Helmar The property was clean and spacious with good grounds. Cleaners came once a week for the pool and villa. More basic supplies could have been provided, kitchen and toilet roll, bin bags, salt etc. All had to be bought WiFi whilst on did not work, despite resetting. Cockerels tart at 5am and are often joined by dogs so not ideal for light sleepers These small things aside, we had a good stay. ##### Lisa L. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Edward B. Jul 15, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Everything we needed The villa was everything we could of asked for, very clean well equipped and well maintained, 4 of us stayed and we had plenty of space, we all agreed that we would stay again. ##### Edward B. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Suraj V. Jun 15, 2019 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely Villa Lovely Villa perfect for four people. Was close to the beach and nearby shops. Only problem was that there was a hole from the pool leading to the fountain inside which led to so many flies annoying us when we was trying to chill in the living area. ##### Suraj V.
