    the apartments are spotless and the hosts, Richard and Maria could not have been more friendly not more helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. The pool area is sheltered and sunny and the swimming pool is immaculate.

    Richard and Maria will do everything to make stay as enjoyable as possible. They really are incredible hosts who run a small, five apartment complex. They have fluent English which was a great help for us. Richard even dropped us to a location...
