Fantastic location for this villa, with the beach, local shops and restaurants all within walking distance. We made the decision not to hire cars and didn't regret this at all, with the only time we booked taxis was to take us to the local waterslide park, which is only 3kms away and of course, going to and from the airport, which costed 22 euros each way.
We did have a few maintenance issues during our stay, with Alex (the manager) doing his best to resolve them, some of which were and some were not. As mentioned in another review, the villa is probably in need of little bit of updating, particularly a couple of the older air con units, but this did not detract from a great holiday and we would definitely recommend the villa.
