"Great 3-bedroom villa with lots of space and our own plunge pool. Some of it was a bit outdated and run down - e.g. shutters very stiff, one treadmill in the gym didn't work properly. But overall, still a lovely stay. Breakfast was lovely and the staff were very helpful. Highly recommend hiring a car as this resort is not walking distance to the main town."
