Relaxed feeling, nice decor, peaceful. The owners were friendly and the villas are clean and spacious. If I had to fault anything it was the bathroom light didn't work properly but that was nothing as the property is lovely and will certainly return. Cute little Bali cards in the draw are a nice touch to. The driveway is fully lit up if you are driving back at night to :)

Property is very average. I wont rate it more than a star. Advice if you booking their bring everything with you and dont use their facilities. Property owners told us that we took all their towels with us home."Which doesnt make sense and they charged us for it" there is no point literally for some one to take a dirty tea towel with them or a dirty towel back home.we left everything infront of them and they kept saying that they couldnt find any towel...probably to only add an extra charge.

Don't stay at this villa
The room was ok. We left the room nice and clean and we left at 8am in the morning. When we got back to England, only found out they have charged us £20 for no reason. Hotels.com tried to contact them but always couldn't get through them. The whole place was empty. I know why now. Will never return again to this villa. We are the frequent travellers. Worst owner we have ever met.

Great place for the family.......
Greeted by the owner, it was a pleasant check in. We received notification that the business had changed hands and a little maintenance is required. A lovely place to stay, our own little get away. Great pool for us to swim in and just a short drive to the shops and beach.
