White Shell Beach Villas

White Shell Beach Villas

8/10 Good
"Really well maintained and clean - I would give a 4.5* rating. We really liked it but there were a couple of negatives which prevented giving a 5*. Really quiet and peaceful on evenings and rooms very well sound proofed from the noise and the rooms were huge!! The kitchen and bathrooms were lovely. No complaints at all on the rooms. The pool area was lovely and could usually get a bed if needed, but will never be too far from your room. Only a ten minute walk down the hill to a brilliant beach. About a 3 minute drive to a big intermarche supermarket which has freshly baked bread and pastries and all the food and drink you could need for your stay. Easy driving distance of lots of beaches and attractions so a fantastic base. Dishwasher and washing machine in rooms. We would stay again. The main negative is around the indoor pool. Whilst there are signs saying the indoor pool is for relaxation and the jacuzzi is not for under 12s, many younger children run around and jump in it. If pointed out we were made uncomfortable to want to go in the jacuzzi area whilst children would sit in for excessive amounts of time. If during the day the reception staff member tried to discourage this, but once evening came it became a central area for kids jumping in and out with little to no adult supervision. Only other negative was around the furniture on the balconies. The balconies (plural) were huge but unfortunately quite a bit of bird poo so very difficult to actually sit on the chairs."
