Aug 31, 2024 #### Review for stay from 22 August 2024 to 26 August 2024 Gorgeous property tucked away on the mountainside. Peaceful serenity. Can’t wait to go back. Amazingly stocked with everything to get you started. Be sure to stop at the market before you arrive to stock the fridge. The villa description didn’t do the pretty justice. There are so many hidden gems to this property to discover upon arrivals. Pool was gorgeous. A bit of trimming would be much appreciated on the wall down to the pool with the bees in the bushes. Very comfortable beds. ##### Rachel M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rachel M. Aug 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A dream come true… Words don’t even come close to express how magical this villa is. Truly a hidden gem. The outside seating areas are remarkable. The gardens are lovely. The pool is great for an afternoon of relaxation. The pictures do not do it justice. Upon arrival we were blown away with the space, the items available for use in the house and the attention to detail regarding design and comfort. By far the best we’ve stayed. Worth every penny. And we’ve traveled all over the world. We cannot wait to find a reason to come back. Take time to explore all of the local gems. People are so kind and accommodating. Thank you for a magical holiday. ##### Rachel M. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary Jo H. Oct 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A little piece of heaven This property is a wonderful hidden gem. The decor and layout is quite romantic and charming. The bed was super comfortable, and the soaking bathtub is absolutely amazing! I used it every night of our stay! We watched beautiful sunsets, and swam in the pool in the middle of October. It was quite cold, but we had to at least try it out! We hope to stay again soon! ##### Mary Jo H.
