Response from the owner Hullo Kim, Thank you for your review - it is helpful to know guests' reactions to Casa Alegre. Many apologies about the mix up over the maid. She came in on Wednesday and cleaned where possible, but on Friday was unable to access the villa by either front or back door. Unfortunately she did not alert our Manager, and I apologize for the lack of maid service. This has never happened before, and we are taking steps to ensure that it does not happen again. On a future occasion, please use the contact telephone numbers given to speak to either the Manager or owner, so that any problem can be sorted out on the spot.The new villa is to the side of ours, in front of the pool wall, so we will retain the view from our balcony, and the Dutch owner is planning a lovely garden there, so it will all settle down in due course. Many thanks and kind regards, Jane
