Guest Report (2009, 2012, 2014)

[Kurt.Halfyard]

We have stayed at Villa De Lena in January 2009, January 2013 and will be returning December 2014. Each visit has been of the highest quality, with the owner, Mervyn Sifontes and his staff always extending a wealth of hospitality to us for a typical 2 week stay: Bikes, BBQ, helpful tips on where to get the best hot doubles, even two mosquito zappers to make those evenings by the pool a little more pleasant. Easy going and upscale and pleasantly sophisticated is a tough blend of tones to pull off, but Villa De Lena does so effortlessly!

A pleasant walk to the Wine Shop, Patsy's Roti (if you are lucky enough to catch them open.) and local Fruit & Veg, as well as down to the lagoon to see whose boats are parked there for the evening.

We've typically rented two Suzuki Jimneys (from Sheppy, naturally) to get around the island, mainly to Speyside, Castara and Englishman's Bay, but also regular runs to Ciao Cafe for pizza and espresso, the mandatory brunch at Shore Things & Craft and to Quash Trace for the aforementioned daily breakfast of Hot Doubles (with extra peppa).
