Beautifully designed property, with top spec everything including the sound system! Pool with salt water was awesome, and plenty of space for us to really relax. Garden is well stocked with flowers, palm trees and cactus, and a delightful robotic mower that trundles around at night and early morning. Highly recommended, we’d love to return.

Wir fühlten uns vom ersten Moment an Zuhause! Anne und ihr Team haben uns wunderschöne Urlaubstage in einem, mit sehr viel Geschmack und viel Liebe restaurierten Haus, in dem es in unseren Augen an wirklich Nichts fehlt, bereitet (Küche, Schlafräume, Badezimmer, Waschmöglichkeiten - wirklich in jeder Ecke ist mit viel Sorgfalt an alles gedacht). Wohin das Auge gleitet, es kommt zur Ruhe und erfreut sich an der Schönheit. Bei aller Schönheit ist alles praktisch und zweckmäßig. Der ruhige, straßenabgewandt liegende, sehr großzügige Garten, wird gekrönt von einem unbeschreiblichen Pool, der sowohl am Morgen, tagsüber als auch Nachts zum Schwimmen einlädt. Das an das Grundstück angrenzende Naturschutzgebiet lockt eine Vielzahl von Vögeln an, die nicht nur jeden Ornithologen zum Schwärmen bringen. Wir hatten keinerlei Themen mit Mücken oder anderen Insekten, wenn doch, gibt es sehr hochwertige Mückengitter an allen Fenstern und Türen. Der Weg zum Strand ist kurz und ermöglicht so zu jeder Tageszeit einen kurzen Besuch. Durch die infrastrukturell gute Lage des Hauses ist der Einkauf zu Fuß oder mit dem Auto schnell und unkompliziert, egal ob im Supermarkt oder auf dem Markt, schnell erledigt. Restaurants gibt es in der Umgebung in allen Kategorien. Wir kommen seit 20 Jahren in diese Region und sind überglücklich, dieses Haus gefunden zu haben. Liebe Anne, herzlichen Dank für Ihre Gastfreundschaft und dass Sie diese Oase geschaffen haben - Wir kommen gerne wieder!
