  : I must admit that my experience at Villa oulavy was not in alignment with my initial expectations. It is with a sense of responsibility that I share my observations, aiming to offer a balanced and fair perspective on my stay. I make a point of only leaving good reviews, but this time I want to inform other travelers of the issues I wish were known to me before booking. Firstly, the discrepancy between the property's description and the actual experience was rather notable. The photos and description provided on the booking platform did not entirely match the reality I encountered upon arrival. This variance in expectations was, regrettably, the first of several issues. Upon arrival, I was taken aback when the owners requested payment in cash. This requirement had not been explicitly communicated during the booking process, and it did catch me off guard. Clarity regarding payment methods is an essential aspect of any accommodation, and the expectation of cash payment should have been clearly stated in advance. One of the most concerning aspects of my stay was the unpleasant smell within the building. It is my belief that a hospitable environment should offer a clean and odor-free atmosphere, which regrettably was not the case at Villa oulavy during my visit.
  : Perhaps the most unsettling aspect of my stay was the feeling of intruding upon the owners' space. I had booked what I presumed to be a small apartment, but it turned out to be a much larger space located within the owners' home. While I am open to quirky and unique accommodations, this particular setup made me feel rather uncomfortable. It's essential for a guest to feel at ease, and in this case, the setup detracted from that experience. Moreover, I noted that the property may pose challenges for guests with mobility issues due to the presence of a spiral staircase that can be quite awkward to navigate, especially considering the beds are upstairs and the toilet was down. While quirkiness can add character to a place, it should not compromise accessibility, particularly for those with specific needs. Regarding the location, while Villa oulavy is indeed close to a beach, it was not a particularly appealing one. Furthermore, reaching restaurants and nicer beaches required a 30-minute walk, which may not be convenient for guests seeking a more central location. Finally, it was perplexing to me that Villa oulavy had received positive reviews in the past. Upon further inquiry, it became evident that the property had changed hands multiple times, which could explain the inconsistency in reviews. At the time of my review, it appears that the property is currently unlisted, further contributing to my sense of disconnect. In conclusion, my stay at Villa oulavy left me with mixed feelings, primarily due to the discrepancy between expectations and reality, the requirement for cash payment, and the overall discomfort of the accommodation setup. It is my hope that this review will contribute to a more informed decision-making process for future travelers, while also serving as constructive feedback for the property owners to enhance the overall guest experience.

  : Wonderful location right by the sea with an extremely good restaurant close by. Great view from the bedroom. Friendly and helpful host. We were offered sun beds to take to the beach which was really useful.
  : The air conditioning barely worked. Fortunately the weather wasnt too hot but in mid summer this would have been a problem. The furnishings are quite outdated.
