Wonderful pool and plenty of room for the whole family. Steps to the beach. Private although near restaurants and fun shopping. We would stay at Bella Vita again for sure.
We dropped down for a last minute getaway for New Years and the house was an amazing find. Absolute perfect location. Beach is about 40 yards away and seaside is close enough for a quick easy bike ride but not too close so that you deal with that traffic. Matt the manager was very responsive and easy to talk to. House was beautiful and pool was great. We definitely will be staying again.
