Super Holiday!

The villa is fabulous and so is the swimming pool and the garden. There is a lot to do on the island for all generations, but staying at the house is activity no. 1. The pool table was an extra treat. The owners, Maria and her husband Teo, are fantastic hosts, who were always there for us, when we had a question. We had a terrific time and hope to return to this little paradise in a world where is so much going on.

Très belle villa

Nous avons séjourné à Alba Bianca Villa une semaine en famille (7 adultes et 2 enfants de 9 et 11 ans). Maria ainsi que son mari nous ont accueillis avec beaucoup de gentillesse et de bienveillance. Maria a à coeur que le séjour des vacanciers se passent le plus agréablement possible, elle a toujours répondu à nos attentes très rapidement. Elle et son mari ont su par leur gentillesse et leurs indications rendre notre séjour très agréable. Je recommande vivement cette location. Un grand merci à eux.

Wij verbleven met 10 meiden in deze villa. Toen we aankwamen werden we super goed ontvangen door de eigenaren. De villa zag er super mooi uit en was van alles voorzien. Het contact met de eigenaren was heel goed en dat was erg fijn. We hebben een hele leuke tijd gehad in deze mooi villa. Zeker weten aan te raden!!
