The private pool, 7m x 4m and 1.2m deep, is not overlooked and the surrounding terrace has plenty of sun beds. This lovely spot is ideal for sunbathing, taking a refreshing dip or simply relaxing. The pool is in full sun until late afternoon, but a gazebo provides some shade. 2 lockable gates enable the pool area to be completely closed off if required.
The garden has a range of seating options so that guests can relax, read, play games or just enjoy the view. A row of beautiful lime trees gives welcome shade for alfresco meals at lunchtime, and when the lights in the trees are on in the evening this is the perfect setting for enjoying drinks and a magical dinner below the stars.

Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit in der Villa Gina. Die Ausstattung war einfach grandios. Und der Ausblick noch grandioser. Man hat alles was man braucht vor Ort. Auch nahegelegene Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Restaurants sind zahlreich vorhanden. Der Kontakt zu den Vermietern war unkompliziert und die Dame vor Ort war jederzeit für uns da. Wir können die Unterkunft nur wärmstens empfehlen!
