Les points forts : Propreté, arrivée, communication et emplacement
Gorgeous property and a Car Rental is a Must
When we arrived this place was just as pictured. Gorgeous property and amazing views. The owner, Vera, greeted us right away. She checked us in and explained how things worked. Vera was very helpful. Her English was not fluent as expected, but she was very accommodating. Her daughter Monica was fluent in English and she helped us out a lot.
Going to this property In late November is not recommended. The weather was damp and rainy. It is difficult to get warm, even indoors. There was a pellet stove in the sitting area to keep us warm. But it only works when your close enough to it.
Keep in mind there are hidden charges at this place that I did not see online when booking. There is a washing machine, it is shared, and there is a small fee each time you use it. There is no clothes dryer. Also, if you need more pellets for the stove, there is a charge, if you turned on the heater/air conditioning in the bedrooms and sitting room for more warmth/air, there is a charge, if you use so much electricity per day and go over the minimum, there is a daily charge. I did not know of these charges when I booked this property. However, the location and beauty of this place is amazingly gorgeous.
We did have to be buy some necessities like bar soap for bathing, toilet paper, dishwashing soap, laundry soap, and the Internet service was extremely poor to the point of not having any internet at all. Even at the reception area of Vera’s home there was barely internet service.. This limited our ability to plan our outings. We had to use my data plan whenever we were off the property. This will bring my international data charges to a huge bill when I return home.
The place is not big enough for more than two people. Yes there are two bedrooms and two bathrooms, however, there is no living room for relaxing after a long day for more then two people. There is only one small, very small, loveseat in the kitchen area. No TV, no alarm clock, no radio, no iron for clothes, no microwave, and as far as we are concerned no internet.
I would recommend this place for a short stay in the warmer months. Definitely not in the colder months. This was our fault for trying to travel on a budget.
If you are okay with minimal amenities you will be fine. This place is surrounded by gorgeous olive trees and fruit trees. The views from the apartment were breathtaking. The location is centralized to most popular cities, towns, and villages.
