What recent reviews say

The house is spacious and designed to sleep large groups, but reviewers consistently encounter broken toilets, air conditioners that leak, cracked sliding doors, non-functional fans, and a pool that is either dirty or unsafe for swimming. Several guests have been injured due to poor condition of surfaces and facilities.

The owner does not clean thoroughly before check-in, rarely responds to messages, dismisses complaints, and withholds security deposits for damage that existed before guests arrived. Reviewers say the asking price does not match what they receive, and most warn others away after their stays.

The property attracts families seeking a pool villa with potential for a restful stay, but cleanliness and pest control are inconsistent. Pool and layout please most guests; electrical faults and seasonal maintenance problems deter repeat bookings.

The property works for families seeking pool time in a spacious, remote setting, but cleanliness and upkeep are inconsistent. Reviewers praise the pool and air conditioning in most rooms, yet report recurring problems: low water pressure, plumbing failures, pest infestations, and worn bedding that undermine the mid-range price.

Guests praise the spacious layout and indoor cleanliness, especially the pool and common areas when well-kept. However, maintenance is inconsistent: some report dirty pools, broken fixtures, stale bedding, and ants, while others had good experiences on different visits.
