Villa Hortensia is in an amazing location, however the villa is very tired and some of the advertising photos are no longer true.
As you arrive, the wall has large chunks of render falling off and the front door is extremely dirty. As we walked in, the villa had a very strong smell of cleaning fluids, which we bought vanilla candles to overide. The two bedrooms downstairs are extremely dark as the windows have shutters on them, which we couldn't open. This means the lights are on in the bedrooms whenever you wish to use them ......it just feels dark and depressing in both bedrooms. The sofa in the lounge had hairs all over it - I would suggest dog hairs but dont know that to be true (1 inch and grey). All of the furniture is tired and very worn. The kitchen is acceptable but we had miniature ants everywhere ....in the sink, on all of the tops, in the fridge...from arrival.
The upstairs bedroom is large and acceptable. The circular bed on the verandah is shown with a canopy to protect from the sun ....something we looked forward too......In reality, there is no canopy , it seems to have broken off sometime in the past and the structure now just has holes in it where the canopy was fixed.
There is a spiral staircase, which is beautiful, however it moves as you walk up and downstairs and one of the securing nuts fell off whilst we were there - upon checking, many of them were only finger tight.....a huge safety issue.
All in all, this is a large villa in an amazing spot, overlookiing the sea. Jesus (the contact ) responds very quickly to WhatsApp questions which is great.
The issue is that the presentation of the villa is very tired, overly dark, not clean and the price does not match what it delivers.
