Amazing Villa but....
The villa and property is absolutely stunning with a great location to town and breathtaking views. There are 3 levels, each with bedrooms and bathrooms. It’s clean, well maintained and has impeccably designed outdoor spaces. The interior is spacious and comfortable with modern amenities. The owner was willing to assist and quickly responsive to any questions we would have. However, we had to give it a lower rating due to privacy issues. What was never disclosed at booking or prior to our arrival is that the owner and his 2 children actually stayed in part of the villa. Of particular interest is that you could not access each of the 3 levels from the inside - only from the outside. We soon realized that there were passages and stairs within the house accessed only by the owner that led to locked doors in various parts of the villa. Several times during our stay he would appear in the kitchen, main room or outside. He was always kind and helpful, but also checking and giving instructions on housekeeping. This was coupled with what suspiciously looked like cameras in some rooms. Needless to say this experience made all of us uneasy as if we were constantly being monitored. The bottom line is if you want a gorgeous, spacious villa then do not hesitate, but if you are expecting privacy then clarify the situation before you book.
