Satisfied
Pros:

We only stayed for 1 night. Cosy stay with magnificent view. Check in and out was a breeze. The drive to the villa was just a long stretch of forest left and right. So be sure to grab anything u need at a mart or anything necessary before u drive to the villa. And reach villa before it gets dark because its gonna be dark dark. Breakfast serve was decent. They do have dinner too at the restaurant. Overall satisfied with my stay

Cons:

Außergewöhnliche Unterkunft
Pros:

Leider hatte das Restaurant geschlossen als wir ankamen (ca 18 Uhr)
Das Frühstück war außerordentlich liebevoll zubereitet und sehr schmackhaft. Restaurant und Zimmer bieten einen fantastischen Blick.

Cons:

Es wäre schön gewesen wenn man Im Restaurant hätte Essen können oder man zumindest vorher gewusst hätte, das es geschlossen ist.

Fabulous views and a great spot
Pros:

View is exceptional as can be seen from the website photos. Restaurant is open for dinner Wed-Sun and I did not recognise that until we arrived. Breakfast was very nice and the staff are very informative and friendly. The room was spotless. The exterior of the building seems like it needs a bit of TLC.

Cons:

I could have relaised that the retaurant was only open Wed-Sunday. Other than that it's all good.
