Nice villa, but the dogs of the neighbours........
We stayed here May 2022 for 4 weeks. It's a nice villa with a beautiful pool. We hoped for 4 relaxing weeks. But.......the neighbours in front of the villa are owning 5 dogs. In the daytime it's not that bad, but from 19:00 till midnight it's almost continuous barking, every evening. We tried to talk to owners of the dogs but the only response we got was 'we live in the mountains....'. They were very unfriendly. In the evening and in the weekend they receive friends, they also were very loud. We both had to wear noice-cancellation headphones to try ignore the sound pollution. We informed the owner about this, and she gave us the option to leave the villa and refund our money. That was a generous gesture, but the option to go home is not what we want. My wife had a very bad year and needed a holiday. We tried to find an other villa but all was full or too expensive. So, we decided to stay. We tried to go away from the villa every day as long as possible, but the evenings at the villa were terrible. Because the 5 dogs are barking, every dog in the neighbourhood went barking. What also needs mentioned....the villa has two roads beside it, one in front and one on the right. These are the main roads to reach the other villas above. In the afternoon between 17:00 and 19:30 every few minutes cars are coming by. The problem is that it is steep uphill, so the car engines need revving up with a lot of noise of course, especially the diesel engines. We think this must be mentioned in the description.
Positive is the contact with the owner, she is helpful where she can.
There are some (minor) things that need to de repaired :
1. Garagedoor not working(was mentioned when we arrived)
2. Ovenlight not working(was mentioned after we arrived)
3. Electricity on the right side of the terrace and dining room was not working(mentioned after we arrived)
4. Airco in the 2nd bedroom stopped working.(this can happen)
If the owners of the villa in front were normal social people and would behave as it should be, this holiday could ne nearly perfect. But the reality is that they are living there, and have no respect for the neighbours.
The owner of the villa promised to do something about this, but we already know that it will be pointless. At least, it's too late for us.
We were looking forward to this holiday, but the neighbours ruined it.
We are really sorry for this negative review, but it must be said.
