My family and I stayed at Villa Ponticello in May of 2017. We were a group of 12 with ages ranging from 18months to 86 years old! This house was great for the entire family. With 5 bedrooms and a pull out couch for the kids, we had plenty of space. The house was super clean, had comfortable beds and was topped off with simply the best chef ever, Karime! She made sure all of our needs were met......from transportation, to grocery shopping, anything we needed was done! Her food was absolutely delicious! With picky young children, she even catered to them.
We had a couple minor issues at the house that required tradespeople. Karime had them at the house the same day or next morning. Couldn't have asked for speedier service!
Karime was so thoughtful with our children.....she bought them some bubbles to use and some treats to eat. She even baked cookies for the kids part way through our stay.
We dined out once but decided it was far superior to stay in! Food is better made by Karime and less expensive!
The maid service was excellent as well. They truly kept the house spotless! Fresh towels in bathrooms and poolside daily. Beds made, bathrooms cleaned etc.
House is a 2 minute walk to a beautiful beach. (non swimming). The house has a nice pool with hot tub. Added bonus of being able to use the huge lap pool just across our own little bridge. The villa is located in Pedregal which is very quiet and safe. Gated community with security.
Even with 12 people, everyone felt like they had their own space. A great layout for sure!
Karolina, the property owner was great to deal with as well. All of our details from airport transportation, to grocery lists and menu planning were all taken care of ahead of time. Stress free vacation at it's finest!
We can't wait to get back to Villa Ponticello one day. Highly recommend this property!
