The villa was spacious, very clean and big. Location was quiet but very enjoyable. Bbq was a godsend and also clean, it was a great stay.
The shower was a bit dangerous, if a small child was showering on their own they could get scalded. The hot water isn't under pressure and the cold water is, something to be aware of if staying with children. A few more dishes Cloths "chux" would have been handy as well as a hand towel and tissues.

The location was on the far edge of America River but it was directly across from the water and had lovely views. The bathroom had just been updated and it had new flooring . Lovely and clean .
All the taps dripped!

It was a great break away.
A mirror in the bathroom which was a little lower or an extra one somewhere else. I am short.
