We spent 1 week in this incredible villa with friends (7 people). The villa is impeccable, as described. Very clean and the furniture is magnificent and of high quality. The bathrooms in each room are sublime, as are the two bathtubs in the rooms concerned. The swimming pool with this sea view is mesmerizing, we never tire of it. We loved our evenings around the fire pit and making our pizzas in the oven provided for this purpose on the terrace. The small private beach below is super cute and truly charming. We thank Jenny for her kindness and availability, a very nice person. The only small point is that you have to pay a supplement to benefit from the heated swimming pool. However, the water remains cold in the jacuzzi and the fountain. It's a shame! It's a detail, but we were not able to fully enjoy these amenities.
