The road down to Villa Carolina is quite narrow and difficult to navigate. Some guests reported that they found it quite difficult to navigate the road in larger cars, with only inches to spare. Guests reported it to be a minor issue as the shuttle was always available.

Although most guests enjoyed their stay in the villa, some guests reported that they were slightly uncomfortable due to the heat and humidity. Some guests reported a faulty air conditioning unit which was an inconvenience.

3. Although the food at the villa was absolutely sumptuous, some guests felt that they should have had the option of an included breakfast in their rates if they were in the self-catering cottage. The non-included breakfast was a little pricey but delicious nonetheless.
