We enjoyed our stay at Villa Strawberry. The house itself, is an old stone farm house that has been redone so it has modern amenities but retains many original features. The pool and patio area were a nice place to relax for a few days of sunshine or for a glass of wine after a day exploring.
I will begin with the pros of the house: nice layout, clean, attractive Maltese style, good pool and patio area. Unfortunately, the owners sort of ruin the experience. There are warnings and rule placards everywhere warning about damage and what we will be fined for. I understand the temptation vrbo hosts may have to reduce damage or think of every possible bad situation, but this RUINS the vacation experience and does not lend a sense of hospitality or welcome. We felt as though the owners would rather we werenât there, a âstay here but donât touch anythingâ sort of attitude. I am a VRBO host and use none of these harsh practices. The owner also tried to get me to pay a cash deposit, either in hand or via a bank transfer. This is against VRBO policy. You have the right to refuse this and ask the owner to contact vrbo to handle a deposit, though your credit card. DO NOT give these people cash. You likely wonât see it again because theyâll try to blame you for damage and keep it. Be advised.
Very quite location.
You can walk to groceries shops in 10 min and bus stops very close for nice water front restaurants in Marsaskala which is 10min on a bus.
Ein sehr netter Kontakt mit Vermieterin, viele gute und hilfreiche Tipps. Ein ordentliches, sauberes und angemessen ausgestattetes Haus. Leider befindet sich das Haus direkt an einer vielbefahrenen StraĂe, so dass ein ruhiger Schlaf zumindest in einem der beiden Schlafzimmer kaum möglich ist. Eine zusĂ€tzliche GebĂŒhr fĂŒr WLAN und die Kaution in bar ist auch in der heutigen Welt etwas erstaunlich. Ansonsten absolut in Ordnung. Sehr gute Anbindung an Valetta, Three Cities, sowie Dörfer und Buchten an der OstkĂŒste.
Stayed here as a family of 4 in October 2018.
Exactly what we were looking for, private pool, bbq and proper chill out time.
Owners were nice and helpful and even granted us a late check out on the last day.
There are 2 shops near by which are well stocked for daily needs and even a pizza take away shop about 2 mins from the villa.
The owners left us local taxi numbers in the info book which we used to go to the local towns (10 euros) and we had a few evening meals in town which were great.
Kids made the most of having our own pool and overall it was a Great chill out holiday!
De woning is sfeervol maar de inrichting heeft niet de kwaliteit die ik verwacht bij de omschrijving "luxe villa". De kwaliteit van de bedden vonden wij matig (houten planken als bodem) die bovendien erg kraakten. De keuken is ruim, de inventaris is voldoende en van prima kwaliteit. Het zwembad was tijdens ons bezoek niet meer in de staat zoals op de foto. Aan een kant ontbraken alle randstenen. De eigenaren zijn wel erg behulpzaam. Josette: dank je wel voor het regelen van de taxi! Wij hadden de pech dat de naastgelegen woning (Blueberry) was gehuurd door erg luidruchtige mensen. Tot in de kleine uurtjes konden wij meegenieten van hun feestgedruis. Conclusie: een goede gastvrouw en gastheer, een sfeervolle woning maar er zijn ook wel wat minpuntjes.
Abbiamo soggiornato a Villa Strawberry con amici. L'abitazione Ăš una location perfetta per trascorrere una vacanza a Malta. La casa Ăš molto bella, curata e con ogni comfort. La possibilitĂ di godere della piscina privata, del barbecue e del giardino rende tutto perfetto
La signora Josette Ăš accogliente, carina e gentilissima.
Prenotate senza esitazione!!!! SarĂ tutto molto molto bello!!!!
