Beautiful view - uncomfortable stay.
Pros:

The View!

Cons:

Worn out carpet- pretty stark environment. 2 HUGE spiders in the unit upon arrival. Another small spider under the sheets in my bed. Many millipedes throughout the villa. No one to greet us upon arrival to help with critters even though website and booking.com had hours posted that front desk would be open when we arrived.

Asukoht hea, aga teenindus mitte nii hea.
Pros:

Vaade oli suurepärane, aga territoorium õhtul valgustamata.

Cons:

Ruumid olid väga külmad, pidi kapist leitud radiaatori sisse lülitama. Jahedusest tungituna ka niiskus, sealjuures voodilinad ebamugavad ja rõsked. Restoranitoit pigem alla ootuste.

Outstanding views from very comfortable villas
Pros:

An absolutely stunning location, a very comfortable villa facing to the sea with wonderful views. And the added bonus of a very good restaurant on site, with excellent food and very friendly staff.

Cons:

Breakfast didn't start until 8.30am. We needed to get off so and couldn't wait that long, so we couldn't have it, which was a shame. Could have done with more veggie (and any vegan) options on the restaurant menu.
