We stayed in this house for 5 days in June/July 2022 and it was exactly as described on the website. It is very spacious - spotlessly clean and everything worked really well. The pool area is very nice - and the whole garden area is very private The owners were very attentive - gave us lots of helpful advice on where to eat & visit in the area and were very responsive to any questions. As an example, we had a problem where the coffee maker was not working properly and they delivered a new one to us within about 2 hours! We would definitely highly recommend this villa and hope to stay there again.
