MEDANO4YOU Casa Nancy

Very spacious, big swimming pool (not heated). Swimming pool was cleaned every few days - first time it was cleaned very well, and the leaves around were brushed up by 2 male staff, however second time it was only 1 staff and the pool was not cleaned properly, leaves were not brushed up. Washing machine and iron was very handy with a big family and baby. 2 bathrooms was very good for a large group. Mango tree - should be nice in the right season to have some mangos from the garden.

Lots of ants, flies and mosquitoes when youre sitting outside, impossible to have food outside. Pillows were too big for me, uncomfortable, though sister found hers comfortable. Kitchen utensils were not good. Pans are all scratched, bought 2 new pans because we were cooking at home a lot (left them there, so hopefully next visitors wont have the same problem as we did).

It was a lovely touch for someone to meet us at the property, to hand over keys and show us around. I think it’s really important to feel welcomed and have any questions answered on arrival. Lovely touches with washing up stuff, cloth & sponges, tablets, coffee, sugar, tea bags and abundance of towels and bedding. Very clean, lovely pool and lovely and spacious for families. Driveway, garage and secure.

The kitchen amenities were quite sparse. For self catering villa, you would expect a few more utensils, pots, cooking trays etc. However, everything was great. Mango tree was in full bloom too, which we thought was great but you did have to tidy up the leaves daily or they went in the pool.

Everything was brilliant from start to finish well equipped loads of spare towel sheets etc. very clean spacious villa. Also the agents were very welcoming and polite and will do what they can to help you have a stresss free time

The pool wasn’t heated

The house was very clean and tidy upon arrival which is important when staying somewhere. The owners came every few days to clean the pool and outside area which was very good. The villa is super close to the airport and to the local supermarket which is ideal. The villa is situated in a quiet residential area, it can be a bit windy but a warm wind so can be quite refreshing. There is off road parking with a car port to keep your vehicle cool which is helpful.

A few pointers in my opinion for consideration. 1. The cooker needs upgrading or the symbols need replacing on the controls, you don’t know what the cooking settings are without guessing. 2. Need more utensils in the kitchen, wooden or plastic spoons/tongs/etc I couldn’t find any suitable for the indoor hob. 3. BBQ tools need an upgrade eg tongs 4. Stayed for two weeks yet no cleaner came at the end of week one unless I pay an extra charge. I’ve stayed in a lot of villas and haven’t ever been made to pay for a house clean on the second week. There was no spare bedding to change the beds and no cleaning products eg floor cleaner/bleach etc to undertake the clean myself without having to purchase products. 5. Master bedroom bed was so incredibly hard that it hurt to lay on after a while, option of a mattress topper would have been nice. 6. There is a huge fly issue outside around the porch/sitting area. I purchased 16 fly papers and they all filled up. I had citronella candles burning also. The flies were biting and leaving marks on my kids. I know you can’t control flies but maybe some natural repellant flowers/bushes may well help? Could it be the big fruit trees in the garden? I must admit this was a huge issue for us and it became most unenjoyable to sit outside that towards the end of the holiday we kind of gave up and went indoors unless in the pool.
