"We loved the space inside the house. We were four people in total, and it was very comfortable for our two adult children and us to hang out in the living room, breakfast bar, or outside on the patio. The pool was just a few steps from the patio, very clean and comfortable, and very welcome in the hot days in January! There are a handful of restaurants within 10 min. walk, which we took advantage of on the nights we didn’t cook inside the villa. "

"Al momento della prenotazione le foto della struttura erano completamente diverse da quello che abbiamo trovato. Da una struttura tipica con stanze a capanna abbiamo soggiornato in bungalows in muratura completamente nuovi ma impersonali. Il contorno tenuto bene e carino. Cosa gravissima mi è stato rubato un costume dentro la valigia in camera e per questo ho ricevuto soltanto delle scuse da parte del ragazzo della reception e non dalla direzione. E' stata una vera violazione della privacy."

"The Villa is beautiful, Santo was wonderful and very respectful. The ocean is absolutely gorgeous, especially at low tide. We loved seeing all the local people working together. Unfortunately, the locals do not know how to leave the tourists alone, it’s especially overwhelming when you are trying to go to the beach behind the villa with your family. We highly recommend you chartering a boat from Mothassane, they made our trip to Vilanculos. "
