    The location is amazing. The view is great and the whole place just calls you to see it. It's a very good getaway spot to visit with a partner. The sunset and sunrises look amazing.

    The house is a bit older and the bathroom is outside the room.

    You can pay separate for breakfast and dinner and its really tasty. The view is amazing!!! It is easy to find, very layback and with a local feel.

    Hostess was s little rough with her attitude. She was not very hospitable. She didn't greet us well for the price of the rooms. It was the most expensive place I stayed at in the country with the worst service. Beautiful place. The host didn't see us off when we left. Rooms should've had air conditioning for the cost.

    Amazing view, great dog, pool was fun! Beautiful home.

    to be honest I don’t like much the bedroom. especially since it was not door in the bathroom.

    it’s an amazing cattle, the view was marvellous. in addition, breakfast was so yummy.

    The wifi was pretty weak (had to use my phone connection). I think the owner should send instructions for the arrival because as it is not a hotel, but more like a "sleep at a local's experience), you can find the welcoming a bit bizarre, as in nobody really excepts you but at the same time, nobody is surprised that you are here, because it's grand open. That caused a bit of a misunderstanding but the lady gracefully fixed it afterwards. I just find that the common parts could be a little bit better kept / tidied up (dead leaves in the pool and on the terrace, gardening tools everywhere) to reveal the potential of the place.

    I loved the view on Cabreba, and the feeling of being in a home. The breakfast was fabulous and the food very good - good that they provide options to eat as nothing is around. The rooms were large and the swimming pool too. Particularly enjoy being surrounded by dogs (but if you don't like pets... then it won't be for you). It was quiet and I felt i had great intimacy. It's definitely an exceptional place that I would recommend! The owner really opens her house to you, and communicate with you on Google translate (be ready)!

    Floors can be slippery in the bathroom. My wife fell in the shower when she tripped stepping on the shower. No major issue.

    Flight of birds and close nature living. Lots of stairs and steps.

    Only accessible with a car, but then you will have a magic panoramic view from the castle! The room is extremely clean and interior of the castle is arranged with great taste. The area is very peaceful with grand nature around. We truly enjoyed our stay and the host was very welcoming!

    The pool is empty. No staff.

    dry interesting adventure. a short story for sure. we found this huge mansion high on a hill above Cabrea. it was raining and there was a long flight. of stairs up to the front door. knocked and knocked. no one came. went back down to the car. my partner wanted to leave. I called the # I had. a woman said they weren’t expecting us until later. Her mother came to let us in. Now here is where it gets really interesting. Gorgeous Mediterranean style villa. Our room had a magnificent view. Very nice bed and all the linens were up scale. No one else staying here. Woman left. Then we found no water, no electricity. my partner said we had to go. I felt it was an adventure. we went to a beach Resturant. when we came back the electricity was on. Although the villa is gorgeous, it’s in need of much repair. We had a romantic time with this whole villa to ourselves !!!

    There was no door in the bathroom and the mattress was very hard. you need to make sure to turn off the outside light, otherwise you get a massive bug problem.

    the hostess is absolutely amazing. She takes care of every need and makes a mean breakfast. The house is really stunning and the rooms are alright. The view is amazing.
