Sehr schöne Villa in ruhiger Lage mit super Pool. Haus ist sehr schön angelegt und gut ausgestattet mit vielen Zimmern und Bädern. Mehrere Terrassen und Gartenebenen, sodass man immer einen sonnigen oder schattigen Platz findet. Anwesen ist allerdings nicht gut gepflegt (morsche Dielen, löchrige Fliegengitter und Markisen, defekter Herd usw.) und Sauberkeit bei Ankunft war nicht optimal. Die Kommunikation mit Gastgebern und Freundlichkeit war einwandfrei.

Bonjour Markus, merci pour votre retour sur votre séjour. C'est important pour nous de pouvoir faire évoluer notre offre.
Effectivement il y a des travaux à faire. Pour le plancher, nous avons commencé par le plus important celui de la piscine ;-), nous continuons en intersaison (difficile quand la maison est louée). Pour les moustiquaires elles ont été abimé en début de saison. Il est prévu de les remplacer rapidement ainsi que les auvents qui seront remplacé au cours de l'hiver. J'espère toutefois que ces désagrément n'ont pas entaché votre séjour.
Je vous souhaite une bonne continuation.
Christophe
Très agréable séjour dans une belle et spacieuse maison. La maison est très bien équipée. La présence discrète mais efficace de Denis à permis d'apporter la touche finale à ce bon séjour.
