After COVID-19 derailed our original vacation plans in April 2020, Ronen worked with us to reschedule for May 2021. And boy was it worth the wait! Villa Grace is beautiful, sitting just a stones throw from the beautiful crystal blue water. There were 3 adult couples and one infant. We had more than enough room for all of us. The only part of the house that didn’t fit our needs was the living room. The furniture was stylish and modern, but it wasn’t very “comfy” for 6 adults and an infant. We’re a family that likes to sit around after dinner and play board/card games, and I would say that with a different couch and maybe a loveseat or 2, you could have a cozier living area to lounge in. Other than that, we were very pleased with the facilities! Gerry, the groundskeeper, did a wonderful job of keeping the back patio swept, the sand raked, and the pool skimmed every day. Only bummer was that one of the umbrellas broke during our stay, due to some high winds one of the days, but luckily Gerry supplied us with a standing fan to keep cool in the humidity under the covered patio. Ceyla, the housekeeper, was a sweet as can be. She was helpful when I needed to run a load of laundry and when I couldn’t figure out why the water dispenser was blinking lights at me. She was diligent in her cleaning and always happy to help! Now, if you’re on the fence about getting food prepared for you, I highly recommend opting in for the chef service and grocery delivery. It saved SO much time and hassle of grocery shopping, meal prep and clean up... all the things you want to escape while on vacation. We requested 2 meals per day (breakfast and dinner) for our entire stay. Sandra was so helpful in setting that up, and our chefs, Eddie and Nancy, were THE BEST! They catered to us, going above and beyond on many occasions- they made special “papillas” for my 7 month old; they helped us celebrate my mom’s birthday with a delicious chocolate cake; and they indulged my insatiable craving for fresh shrimp ceviche! I can’t say enough just how wonderful we found Eddie and Nancy to be!! All in all, it was a fantastic family vacation and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a relaxing stay in paradise!
