I spent 3 days there with my wife. We had a good time but the property clearly needs some maintenance/renovations. There's nothing luxurious about it. The fitout is old and needs repairs throughout. The property is also not a villa, it's a unit/townhouse within a 28 units complex. The ad leads you to believe it has a private pool and spa when in fact it's part of the common property and shared among all units. It does have gorgeous views and is well located but don't expect much more than that.
Pros:
-nice views
-good location
Cons:
-not at all luxurious as advertised
-pool/spa is not private, quite the opposite
-Bbq doesn't work/broken
-nespresso machine leaks water
-overall old and damaged fitout
-full of mosquitoes inside the house when we arrived. I had to kill them all and ask the caretaker to clean the house because the dead bodies were literally everywhere
-towels provided will turn your skin black, particularly hands and under the nails, which is very disappointing after showering
-the drains in one of the bathrooms started smelling real bad after the first day
Enjoyed our stay. Everything you need is provided, though property is looking a bit tired overall, photos may need updating.
The issue with property entry fobs is a security risk - garage was opening by itself at times when other residents were coming and going .
Short walk through bush to the beach is nice.
Overall comfortable stay. and excellent check-in process by caretaker.
Would consider staying here again.
