Splendorous Views and Comfortable Old World Accommodations
Our stay at Villa Aqvara exceeded our expectations.
There were multiple areas for our group of eight to gather and enjoy time together, but also separate spaces that allowed privacy. We spent every evening on the large terrace taking in the amazing sunsets.
We thoroughly enjoyed time relaxing by the pool, especially after a day of touring and sight-seeing. We appreciated the poolside restroom, shower and toys.
The villa manager, Bruno, was a tremendous asset. He assisted us in everything from stocking the fridge, to restaurant reservations, transportation, and tour bookings. He answered all inquiries quickly by email or WhatsApp. Thank you again Bruno!!
There were a few areas that could use improvement (as noted by our whole group), but certainly did not deter from our satisfaction. There was only one set of towels per person for the week. A mid-week change would have been nice. The coffee pot (while a larger Moka pot) was not adequate for our heavy coffee drinkers. Also, need to specify correct pods for Nescafé coffeemaker. We would have lied to use the grill one evening, but realized we would need to supply charcoal (just a preparation note).
We were also somewhat surprised by the length of time and cost of transportation to and from activities, but an easy trade-off for staying in this magnificent villa.
Overall, we had an incredible, fun-filled and memorable week!
