Villa Mar De Amores- Anyone have insight?

Post by mahojim »

We're thinking about this one for next year, probably May/June...
Anyone been there?
Then again, we might end up on the East End, which also wouldn't suck... :wink:
Thanks, and always,

jim, while i've never stayed there i once followed &looked info on line because of the views and fairly convenient location of upper rockridge rd where she's located. i believe she backs up to virgin grande estates with similar sw views but w/o having to go most of way up gifft hill rd to get there. there are a couple of tight cut backs on rd up by since rd is dead end little on comming traffic.

do recall a review of couple yrs ago than implied some plumbing? issues and not sure there is much relief from afternoon sun.

Not plumbing issues per se, but the fact that there is no shower in the master bath, a large tub with a hand held shower, European style. This was the owners home while they lived on island. Its the folks who own(ed) Morgan's Mango, nice folks.;

sg, to a guy that's a plumbing issue, same as a urinal vs a toliet would be for the ladies.

just kidding, but knew had somethingt to do with bathroom that caused me to deleted from my list list of prospects.

So, aside from the "shower thing", is it groovy?
Looks great.
Thanks for the help.

We ended up chosing another place partly because of the shower issue and the fact that we would mean two couples with only one shower. Sorry I can't offer any first hand info.
