We spent one week in the villa The Chateau with my family.
Everything is in accordance with the pictures seen on website (the swimming pool is very small).
The villa is very nice, in traditional maltese style.
We haven't noticed in the contract that we'll have to pay for the heating by a using coins machine, that's our mistake (it's the same system for air conditioning). But when we came into the villa, the inside temperature was 13°C ! It took us a very long time to warm up (2 days)... everybody got a cold ! The system for hot water is difficult to control, we all had to take cold showers several times !
The furniture (mattresses, sofas, chairs...) is not confortable. Be careful if you have backache.
Nice villa for a summer stay but not very adapted for a stay during winter. From my point of view, "luxury" is excessive for this level of service...
Super mooi verblijf! Aan alles is gedacht. Fijne tuin met zwembad en voldoende ligbedjes. De villa was erg netjes en goed onderhouden. We hebben een super fijne luxe vakantie gehad samen! Bedankt en echt een aanrader
Nothing works. Hot water, heat, internet and the ridiculously complex stove are some examples. There are five bedrooms that sleep 10 people but only enough hot water for three showers and then you have to restart the hot water heater and wait an hour.
We were charged 10 euros extra a day for WiFi put it was weak and half of the house got no signal at all.
They charge extra for heat. We knew that in advance. So we gave them 100 euros in cash up front. That was used up in three days then we had to feed euro coins into a machine. Every room has separate and a different type heating and air conditioning unit with different remotes.
I donât think you can categorize a rental as âluxuryâ when you have to provide basic nesessities like toilet paper.
Then there is the smell. Iâm not sure what caused it but on some days you really could not sit outside. It might have been manure from nearby fields but it smelled nasty.
I have to say I hate writing this and I have never written a negative review before, but when you bring you family half way around the world you donât want to get nickeled and dimed.
Oh, by the way. The picture of the outside of the house with the big pool is Photoshopped. Itâs about a tenth of the size depicted.
