How private is the villa?
We have no close neighbors at all which makes the house very private. Christy leaves after she serves and cleans up dinner (but you can certainly send her home earlier if you’d like). Martina prepares breakfast and does housekeeping and usually leaves by lunchtime. Paul, our caretaker, lives on a separate floor of the house. He can take you on many day trips, hikes, boat rides, etc., acting as a tour guide, but will disappear at night. All of the staff can be as obsequious or as social as you like. They generally take their clues from you, but feel free to let them know your preferences. ^top Tell us more about the nearest beaches… The beach just below the house, Anse Galet, is usually deserted. It is best in the morning or the early afternoon as the sun goes down behind the ridge later in the afternoon, but some people might actually prefer that. Tevas or water sandals might also be good here as it is somewhat rocky in spots. If you are fairly limber you can clamor down the many steps
