The property is not yet finished and hence the 4 stars. ##### Sophie A. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Jul 24, 2025 #### Propiedad maravillosa en una ubicación espectacular Pros: El anfitrion Luis te lo pone todo muy fácil y la villa y su ubicación son espectaculares, sin duda repetiremos. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Jul 12, 2025 #### Super schöne Villa mit Pool und direkt am Meer Pros: Das Haus ist gross, sehr schön gelegen, hat eine super Aussicht auf das Wasser und es gibt einen direkten Zugang zum Meer. Auch der grosse Pool haben wir sehr genossen. Restaurants und kleine Läden sind zudem zu Fuss innerhalb von rund 10 Minuten erreichbar. Alles in allem hatten wir sehr gelungene Ferien. Cons: Es gibt keine Vorhänge oder Storen an den Fenstern. Für lichtempfindliche Menschen ist ausschlafen ohne Schlafmaske daher schwierig. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine G.
