i really liked the several pools and the three bars. finding our villa was very easy. it featured a golf course and tennis court. a pharmacy and a supermarket were just outside, i found this especially convenient. the apartment's washing machine and dryer were a great feature for our family.

generally decent stay
well-equipped kitchen swimming pools maintained grounds dated apartment musty smell small television
i stayed in a standard one-bedroom apartment. the apartment had a well-equipped kitchen with sufficient utensils and appliances. i also appreciated the multiple swimming pools available on the premises (i particularly enjoyed the main one). the grounds were very well maintained and provided a nice environment.
the apartment looked dated and worn. the furniture showed signs of wear and tear. i noticed a musty smell in the bathroom upon arrival (but it dissipated after airing it out). the television was quite small considering the size of the apartment.
