Villa Tyrrenia

The apartment had everything we needed, and the air conditioning was a big plus. We also loved the balcony view, the lovely uncrowded beach right by the complex, and having shops and restaurants within walking distance. The beach bar could get a little noisy some nights. Getting into the apartment was a mess. We waited nearly an hour for the receptionist, although the office sign said it was open. When he realized our place hadn't been cleaned, he offered us a much smaller apartment. We turned it down, then waited another two hours to get into ours. It was just about clean enough. The Wi-Fi code we were given never worked during our 10-day stay, and nobody seemed concerned. The complex is very nice, which makes the poor service and cleanliness even more disappointing. For the price, it didn't feel worth it.

The only things that worked out were the beachfront location and the nice beach bar nearby. We had booked through Booking.com after seeing photos of rooms with sea views, but got a room facing the parking lot instead. The receptionist said, "The photo is not contractually binding," and blamed Booking. The beds weren't made, and there were no sheets or pillowcases. The bathrooms had no soap, shampoo, or similar basics, and the Wi-Fi didn't work. Parking was largely inadequate too. At €250 a night, that was a lot to put up with.

The town is small and nice, and the location was the best I've had so far. Parking right in front of the building was great, and the elevator helped with all our luggage. I also liked that the toilet was separate from the bathroom. But the apartment was filthy, and so were the building and the surrounding area. Such a shame with a location like that. The lady at reception speaks only French. Good luck!

The apartment was roomy, and the location was ideal. We were made to feel very welcome.
