I was in contact with Chris (the host) from the time we booked last fall until our trip in March. She patiently answered many, many questions and was a wealth of information when it came to planning for a week stay. She has many well deserved high ratings!
The property was pretty much as described. We used the kitchen for over half our meals. It was amazing to be able to go to the beach in the mornings and then retreat from the crowds in the afternoons and lounge in the pool. It is right next to a busy road, so there is some road noise, but it did not affect us when we were inside. We were also fortunate to have quiet neighbors most of the week, however there was a day when the next door neighbors were louder. Aside from a little noise, it was still private and relaxing.
The only thing I would advise is to be sure to get all 3 door codes before arrival. One to enter the private villa, one to open the sliding door to go inside, and one to enter the resort when walking back from the beach. We were only given one of these codes before arrival. Once we got all 3, we were set.
All things considered, I would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend to others!
