"Overall, the property felt overpriced, outdated, and poorly maintained, making it unsuitable for families with young chi"

5.0

The pool was well taken care of.

Unfortunately, this property was not suitable for our family with two small children. The rooms were extremely hot at night (around 30°C), there were many mosquitoes and no mosquito nets, and upon arrival after a long journey I had to eliminate around 20 mosquitoes in the room where our newborn was supposed to sleep. This was very disappointing and unacceptable for a family stay. The interior feels old and outdated, and the mattresses were of poor quality. Considering the high rental price, we expected that some of the income would be reinvested into maintaining and updating the property. The outdoor area was also not well maintained, with old furniture and no sun umbrellas available—I ended up buying one myself and leaving it behind. The pool was fine, but overall the property did not meet our expectations. For the price paid, we expected a much higher standard of comfort and maintenance. We would not choose to stay here again or consider it good value for money.

De locatie is echt fantastisch. Prachtig uitzicht. Ligt naast kustwandelpad. Mooie natuur, stilte... Vriendelijk en enthousiast onthaal.

Het huis is wat verouderd en heeft wat kleine mankementen, maar dat wisten we uit reviews.

"Uma desilusão"

4.0

A Vista é espetacular. A casa está situada no meio da natureza.

Apesar da aparente privacidade, devido à localização, existe um movimento imenso de pessoas para visitar a localização e a vedação existente, não permite ter privacidade. Toda a casa necessita de remodelação, pelo preço cobrado, não é aceitavel a condição em que se encontra. Tanto o interior como o espaço exterior não têm qualquer tipo de manutenção há anos. A ideia que fica, é que a casa faz-se valer pela vista, e não é necessário mais nada. Mas nos dias de hoje, parece-me inaceitavel. Tem potencial mas, neste momento, só tem potencial.

Un endroit extraordinaire, charme, environnement unique

Il faut accepter que cette maison soit simple mais très adaptée au site naturel. Renforcer le Wifi serait bienvenu.

"Villa with a view"

7.0

The location, the exterior of the property and the general area, property had clean linen and towels Good local access to beaches, restaurants etc

The access road is not great condition and has a problem with people coming to gates at property trying to access beach and asking to turn round so gates need to be kept locked. There is public walked access along side property to beach including nudist beach mainly male. Private screening on property on this side could be improved for pool privacy. The property interior although quirky is a bit dated but overall functional for the stay
