What a lovely home and experience!!
This house is beautiful! The house was depicted exactly as the listing. It was a very large and well stocked kitchen with all the pots/pans etc you need. The garden was beautiful as well with a beautiful pool and lovely outdoor furniture to enjoy. Beds were very comfortable and home was very clean. The only thing was concerned about with the house was the beautiful staircase as I have a 3 years old and an 8 year old. The railing has large gaps so please be mindful if you have small children. Other then that it was exactly what we wanted. As for location it was within a small quaint village that was picturesque. Keep in mind there are no shops or restaurants within walking distance so you’ll need a car. Other then that it really is a wonderful rental. And our host was amazing! Very responsive and accommodating. It was my first time using VRBO and she really made this experience as easy as possible. Thank you so much Susana for the loveliest stay!! Xx
