Very welcoming house in a quiet area that allows you to easily reach all the island’s destinations. Furnished with all comforts. Functional small pool, garden, barbecue grill, and private parking. The owner lives nearby, is always available, and very kind. Excellent value for money.
a/c a bit noisy, few more knives and glasses for wine
