Astra House

Pool

Unpainted patched walls, no minimum essentials, no cushions for pool furniture, bugs, did not sleep six comfortably, family upstairs was noisy all hours of day and night, no WiFi, no television, no welcome packets, water temp in shower too hot.

Great villa, pool was clean, BBQ was great. Host met us and was very nice indeed.

Lovely pool, large open plan living room/kitchen. Very safe and secure. Nice barbeque and lots of loungers and private on site parking. Host was very helpful and easy to reach via message. Bedroom was simple yet comfortable. Nice temperature with airconditioning and shuttered and mosquito netted windows. Walking distance to the waterfront with lots of options for food and drink which have a beautiful view of the sunset over the harbour.

There was an overwhelming smell of old cigarette butts in the apartment, even as an ex-smoker I found it hard to stay indoors for too long, there is an air freshener that goes off regularly but it doesn't cover up the cigarette smell and just added a toilet cleaner smell to the mix. The wifi was quite weak and dropped in and out for long periods. There was no hairdryer (or I couldn't find it anyway) and shower didin't drain and bits of it (like the shower head holder) were missing or broken. There was no shampoo or conditioner (which would have been a nice touch but not a deal breaker, we left some of ours in case the next guest needs it). There was a lot of noise in the mornings around 9am with someone shouting at their dogs over and over again. so if you're a later riser this might wake you up, maybe keep the windows closed.

Nice living area, Great Outdoor Area. Easy parking.

Strange smell of cigarettes, it needs some maintanance, shower drains slow, no AC in the bedrooms.

The family owner is very friendly as well as professional .

The whole place was perfect
