Highly recommended
We had a fabulous stay here. We rented a two bedroom villa and it was spotless, comfortable and much nicer than we thought from the photos. The grounds were immaculate and the Italian restaurant was top notch. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. I can’t say enough good things - it blew my expectations out of the water. Would love to stay there again.

The restaurant was very good with lots of delicious fruit for breakfast. We had dinner twice and both times were good. The room was very spacious and clean. The pool was huge! The grounds were well kept, and the property was beautiful. I would definitely stay here again.
