Charming Six-Bedroom Villa on the Beach

8/10 Good
"Our host was truly amazing. She was very attentive and kept us well informed. Couldn’t have a better host. I would have rated the property 10 of 10 however, the pool water was bad. The pool seems to need a new motor or something. The pool guy added chemicals but it was very turbid and the motor was loud and not really working. Overall, great property but that pool situation needs fixing. Also, need better kitchen pots and pans. They are beyond something useful. If that is fixed, 10/10. Jasmin the host is wonderful!"
