The moment i walked into the Vila Mar i was mesmerized. Not only was the grounds spectacular but the staff were as well. I ended up very sick during my stay and the staff came in several times to change out my towels, freshen the room. What an extraordinary experience. I felt like part of the family! I highly recommend this little gem.
