Family Friendly

The Villa has been beautifully decorated and is well appointed for families with children. A double swing, slide, trike, toy-kitchen and beach toys were all provided, and kept our kids well entertained. The property is completely fenced and has a wonderful grassy area which is secure out front for the kids to play. It is a short walk to the beach, which was clean, had an icecream stall and pedalos and kayaks. It can be a very windy beach, but on a still day was absolutely perfect.
The Villa lacked a kettle and some of the basics such as salt/pepper/cooking oil, but the proprietor kindly brought us milk in the morning. It could also benefit from stair gates for children who are only just learning to manage stairs.
We were a bit stuck for places to go out for lunch as most of the local restaurants were closed until 7:30 or 8 pm, and the supermarkets close between 12 and 4 pm; so be prepared to cook at the Villa if you have little children who need to be fed early and put to bed!
We were asked for a deposit to cover the chattels when we arrived, which was a bit of a surprise, of which $100 was retained to pay for cleaning of the villa (not optional). We would have preferred to have known this up front and have it included in the overall cost of the Villa.
