We have rented Villa Fantasia for a week in June. You mentioned you have read mixed reviews. Perhaps I am not as well informed as I should be. Could you please provide the URL to the website that you read these reviews? Your assistance is appreciated!

I have had others respond to my messages about the villa on different forums (Fodor's). One gentleman stayed in the Villa in May of 04. He stated that the Villa was a littel dated but otherwise, lived up to his expectations. However, as I travel different forums, sometimes I run across a statement about the "run down" condition of the villa. Tom seems super nice but was unable to supply any guest comments other that the guestbook at the villa.
We will continue to look for responses. We are scheduled for May of this year. If you hear any concerning reports please advise.

Thank you for your response. I would appreciate a trip report from you after returning. I am never excited about leasing a home blind but couldn't find anything other than their website. I did receive a response from a gentleman who lives on the island stating that he is good friends with the couple that caretakes the property and they are very particular. The furniture in the pictures on their homepage does look somewhat outdated. However, I believe this may be both a good experience and value. Thanks again!
