The pictures donât really do it justice. The owner was extremely helpful and configured the house just how we wanted it. Communication was great. The facilities were great including a Nespresso coffee machine and lots of plates, glasses and cooking utensils. Everything you could need. Courtyard was lovely and a little sun trap.
