A Summary of Feedback from Past Guests

    "....perfect location, all mod cons, amazing child-friendliness, friendly cleaner/babysitter, useful information both before arriving and in the villa..."   I Probyn, UK

   "We had a great time. The children's' equipment was really useful... The information was really useful - Fred L'Ecailler was fun. I enjoyed the sailing - although the people at Mauna forgot to mention the significance of the yellow buoys around the heli-pad the first time!"   M Walker, UK
 
    "We absolutely loved the Villa.  As you said, the location is wonderful and the Villa is spacious, comfortable and a real Oasis.  With two little ones (6 months and 2 1/2) as well as two teenagers, there was plenty to do for all.  We liked the Public Beaches better during the day and ...another Beach Restaurant at night as well as Felix and another gourmet but austere Vietnamese restaurant in town.  We also ate a few meals at the Villa and when we return in a year or two we will eat at home more often. ...We had never been to Cannes and all loved it."  D Cornell,  USA

    "I can't thank you enough for the use of your villa. It was amazing. It completely exceeded our  expectations. Not only was the location of the house perfect but it was so lovingly and beautifully taken care of. We especially appreciated how well stocked the house was & the beautiful yard in the back with the sand & fountain for our children. You've really done a wonderful job restoring and decorating the home. We spent the last half of our vacation planning when we can come back! I think you will definitely be seeing us again!"  M Towers, France

    "We had a great time last week at the villa. What a beautiful property you have in a spectacular location. It was home from home for us. We hope to return soon." Nick, UK.

"Thank you for the kind words, and the constructive advice, it is really appreciated."  Vicki Thackray
