"The photos of the house are impressive and our stay there exceeded our expectations, helped by the owner's hospitality. The villa is spotless, spacious and well equipped from a functional and entertainment point of view. The swimming pool is a big plus and the views outside are stunning. The location is quiet, with stores and the national park a short drive away (about 15 minutes). We were after a relaxing weekend and the house gave us just that. Our group can relax together and also have their own time - it's spacious inside and out. The owner is very helpful and friendly, with communication from the moment we booked. We felt comfortable asking for advice and appreciated the quick responses and help. A beautiful villa with an amazing factor. Thank you - we hope to return again.
