The villa’s family rooms are spacious enough for larger groups, featuring a fully equipped kitchen, air‑conditioning, and a private bathroom with a deep soaking tub. Guests repeatedly note the hot‑tub on the terrace as a highlight for evening relaxation, while the free Wi‑Fi and dedicated workspaces keep families and remote travelers productive.
