Really an amazing place
This is a wonderful property, with great space and a fantastic pool area. We had a relaxing and fun time as a family, on the warm sunny days and also on the few days when it rained. The master bedroom is h-u-g-e, with an almost outdoor shower. (Very similar to one we enjoyed in Bali many years ago, and the place is filled with art, furniture, and objects that enhance that feeling.) Rest of the rooms, as described and with good views. Really a lovely venue, one that I will think of fondly.
However, a few small things to be aware of:
1) The owner / manager seemed to take more of a legal approach to the relationship than of a welcoming host. The "welcome pack" seemed to consist of a long list in French of what we would be fined for, rather than the "here's a few things nearby you might be interested in" that we've experienced elsewhere. And, once we had agreed the stay through VRBO (and paid the deposit) we were presented with a separate contract, which was also a bit of a surprise.
2) There were a few small issues with the lighting around the pool, which the owner / manager did organise to send someone to deal with - but they went out the next day.
3) It was a bit difficult to find when we first got there. There isn't any obvious sign and we had to ask a helpful neighbour where it was.
4) There really are a lot of mosquitos. A lot.
Finally, though not an issue for us, as we were 6, though the property can sleep 9, almost all the seating areas are for 6.
