Very clean with all the facilities you need

Review Submitted: October 22, 2011 Date of Stay: October 2011
Hi Paul,

I tried to leave feedback but the site wants my email address along with the right to distribute it. I don't want to sign up but this is the feedback I was going to leave which I'm happy for you to use:


My wife and I stayed in the villa with friends for a week. The property is larger than you expect, very clean with all the facilities you need, including plenty of games, DVDs and books.The beds are very comfortable along with the quilts and pillows.
The location offers panoramic views with stunning sun-sets. It can get windy at times but there are plenty of seating areas around the property to find some shelter. There was only one restaurant open within walking distance offering a very limited selection of food - this is not surprising as it was October and the local area (and Sardinia in general) is very uncommercialised. This also meant the plentiful beaches were practically empty though.
Communication with the owners was fast and efficient. I would recommend this property to family and friends.


Best wishes,

Jeff

Erholsamer Traumurlaub

Review Submitted: October 1, 2011 Date of Stay: September 2011
Wir hatten wunderschöne, erholsame Tage in dieser großzügigen Villa im touristenleeren Westen der Insel. Wir waren von Mitte bis Ende September dort und hatten bis auf einen heftigen Sturm sehr schönes Sommerwetter. Der Wind wehte ständig, sodass es selbst bei Temperaturen um die 30 Grad immer angenehm warm und nie zu heiß war.
Wir sind die klassischen "Schnorchel-Urlauber" die großen Wert auf kristallklares Wasser legen und davon gab es auch reichlich. Die Strände in der direkten Nähe zur Villa waren teilweise Menschenleer, selbst in den kleinsten romantischsten Buchten.
Ausflüge nach Alghero lohnen sich auf jeden Fall. Der Meeresblick bei der Fahrt auf der Küstenstraße ist traumhaft, bezaubernd, faszinierend, einfach umwerfend und Alghero selbst ist ein quirliges kleines Städtchen das alle Wünsche an eine romantische italienische Küstenstadt mit Palmen erfüllt und San Remo oder einer Stadt wie Eivissa in hohem Maße Konkurrenz bieten kann.

Nach all den Ausflügen, die wir von dort unternahmen, haben wir uns jeden Abend bei der Ankunft über die ausgesprochen tolle Lage der Villa Mannu gefreut. Es war ein Ort der Stille, der Erhohlung, Entspannung und Freude über die liebevollen Details in der Villa. Beim Kochen, Abendessen und der Outside-Dusche hat man dort einen umwerfenden Blick auf den Sonnenuntergang und die umlegende Berglandschaft.
Auch die Kommunikation über Internet mit dem Eigentümer funktionierte immer blitzschnell.
Die Abreise fiel mir entsprechend schwer. Ich wäre gerne noch 4 Wochen länger geblieben!

We had wonderful, relaxing days in this spacious villa in the west of the island tourist empty. We were there from the mid to late September and had up to a violent storm very nice summer weather. The wind blew constantly, making it even at temperatures around 30 degrees always warm and never too hot. We are the classical "snorkeling tourists" the great emphasis on crystal clear water and there were also plentiful. The beaches in the immediate proximity to the villa were partially deserted, romantic, even in the smallest creeks. Trips to Alghero worthwhile in any case. The ocean view while driving on the coastal road is gorgeous, charming, fascinating, simply amazing, and Alghero itself is a bustling little town which all desires for a romantic Italian coastal city with palm trees met and can offer San Remo or a city like Eivissa highly competitive . After all the trips that we took from there, we were happy every evening upon arrival at the extremely fantastic location of Villa Mannu. It was a place of silence, Recreation, relaxation and joy at the lovely details in the villa. When cooking, dinner, shower and an outside-there has to a stunning view of the sunset and the Transfer mountain landscape. Also, the communication over the Internet with the owner always worked with lightning speed. The departure I noticed heavy. I would like to have four weeks to have stayed longer!

Unglaubliche Ruhe, traumhafte Sonnenuntergänge

Review Submitted: September 30, 2011 Date of Stay: September 2011
Wir haben zur viert (2 Päarchen, zw. 27-31 Jahre alt) eine tolle Woche in der Villa Mannu verbracht und waren begeistert! Das Haus entspricht genau der Beschreibung der Besitzer und den Fotos! Insbesondere das Frühstücken auf einer der Terassen mit Blick aufs Meer, das Grillen abends, die tollen Sonnenuntergänge und der Pool hat uns gut gefallen! Auch die Ruhe war sehr erholsam (die in den anderen Reviews angegebenen Hunde haben wir auch gehört, fühlten uns aber nicht gestört). Wie von den Besitzern angegeben, braucht man auf jedenfall ein Auto. Aber nach kurzer Autofahrt findet man in Bosa Einkäufsmöglichkeiten und mehrere Restaurants! Der Strand an der Bosa Marina ist weitläufig, sauber und nicht überlaufen!
Es gibt in der Villa ziemlich viele Vorschriften, die aber wahrscheinlich dazu beitragen, dass das Haus so gut gepflegt und ausgestattet ist! Der Kontakt mit den Besitzer ist super, Fragen werden prompt per email beantwortet und die Kaution haben wir schnell zurückerhalten!

Owner's Response: Translation in English

We are a couple(, between 27-31 years old) spent a great week at Villa Mannu and loved it! The house is exactly the description of the owner and the photos! In particular, having breakfast on a terrace overlooking the sea, the crickets at night, the wonderful sunsets and the pool we liked! Also, the rest was very relaxing (as indicated in other reviews the dogs we have heard, felt but not disturbed). As stated by the owners, you definitely need a car. But after a short car ride can be found in Bosa and several restaurants! The beach at Bosa Marina is spacious, clean and not crowded!

There are quite a few rules in the villa, but is likely to contribute to the fact that the house is so well cared for and equipped! The contact with the owner is great, questions are answered promptly by email and the deposit we have received back soon!

Schöne Woche im September

Review Submitted: September 20, 2011 Date of Stay: September 2011
In grosser Runde zu acht (2 Familien) genossen wir das schöne und liebevolle Ambiente des Hauses. Die Ausstattung ist aus unserer Sicht überdurchschnittlich mit vielen kleinen hilfreichen Details (z.B. in der Küche). Neben dem kleinen, aber ausreichendem Pool waren insbes. bei den Jugendlichen der Basketballkorb und die TT-Platte sehr beliebt und nicht zu vergessen natürlich der Wireless Internetzugang!

Die Sitzplätze im Garten sind sehr einladend und entspannend. Das Haus liegt sicher etwas abseits doch der Blick auf die Bucht ist wunderbar. Mit dem Auto kann Bosa sehr schnell erreicht werden. Hier finden sich ausreichende Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und das Städtchen ist sehr nett und noch nicht allzu touristisch.

Der Kontakt mit den Vermietern war völlig problemlos und alles administrative perfekt organisiert. Wir haben die Buchung nicht bereut und durften eine wunderschöne Woche erleben!

Owner's Response: Translation (english)
Eight of us (two families), we enjoyed the beautiful and loving atmosphere of the house. The equipment is above average from our point of view with many small useful details (eg in the kitchen). Were next to the small but adequate pool especially for the youth of the basketball hoop and the Table tennis table- very popular and not to mention the wireless Internet access! The seats in the garden are very welcoming and relaxing. The house is a little bit away but the view of the bay is wonderful. By car Bosa can be achieved very quickly. Here you will find enough shops and the town is very nice and not too touristy. The contact with the owner was a breeze and everything perfectly organized administration. We have not regretted making the reservation and were able to experience a wonderful week!

Villa Mannu

Review Submitted: September 2, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2011
Very good location for 4 adults and 2 - 4 children, who like to drive around daily, you need a car!
Very good environment in the house (including WIFI/WLAN), not to forget the pool, everything as described.
2 good terraces / patios with nice furniture and wonderful view
Fantastic sunset every evening

Some aspects to consider:
No beach in walking distance - We haven't used the rocky coast nearby because of wind and waves, so we had to drive by car.
No restaurant, bar or alimentari in walking distance.
Mostly very quite - but some barking dogs and screaming dog owners in the neighborhood, particularly in the early morning
We missed the market in Bosa because it was on Tuesdays and not on Wednesdays.
Recommended for:  Adventure Seekers, Sightseeing, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children
Owner's Response: Thanks again fro a positive review and that your expectations were met with regard to the villa.
The issues you cover are ones that we try to make very clear on our website and its a shame you did not get an opportunity to go to rocky beach below in view of the weather, as previous review have expressed how much they enjoyed this feature.

The nearest sandy beach is 800 metres from the villa and this may not be to everyones liking. However, you have so many within a 15 minute car journey you are spoilt for choice.

The villa is situated in a quiet rural environment. As a result any sound can have quite an effect. The dog barking is a familiar problem within a rural setting and can depend on when you are there as to the extent this occurs.

Mia colpa for the error in the market day and we will address this in the information we provide.

As for restaurant and bars. yes I agree , its either 20 minute walk to the get the nearest bar and restaurant and you need to drive for 10 minutes or so to get to other good restaurants. However, its often trying to strike the best balance between having a tranquil environment and being close to all amenities.

And yes we always make crystal clear, you need a car.
