Accommodation
Min-y-Don is our second home and is furnished and equipped accordingly, not as some less personal villas specifically designed for the rental market. The house is newly decorated, inside and out and is fully equipped as a home from home.
There is a house manager on island who will be able to help you with any queries or problems.
The upper (main) level is perfect for a couple:
The large bedroom has a king-sized bed with plenty of hanging and drawer space. Windows on two sides of the room have wooden louvres easily adjustable to allow the breeze in, with mosquito screens to keep the insects out! Sliding glass doors lead onto the verandah and provide sea-views from the bed, a fabulous view when you wake!
The en suite shower room has a rooflight, so you can gaze at the sky as you shower!
The modern kitchen is bright and airy and well equipped with all the usual appliances including a dishwasher, microwave, electric oven, gas rings and large fridge/freezer. There is also an electric bread-maker, filter coffee machine, toaster, food processor and English kettle and teapot for those who like their morning cuppa, and if you want to entertain, there are plenty of plates, mugs, glasses and sets of cutlery.
The house is fitted with a US electricity supply (110v) throughout and, in addition, there are UK sockets (220v) in both the kitchen and living room.
There is also a small laundry room with automatic washing machine. No drier, since everything dries quickly outside.
The comfortable, spacious lounge has TV, DVD and CD player with surround sound, and there is a formal dining area with large wooden dining table. Sliding glass doors lead from both the living and dining rooms to the verandah.
The 50 foot long covered verandah is open on three sides, providing a welcome breeze and also has an electrically operated blind at the seaside end for shade if the afternoon sun is too bright. This space provides a very comfortable covered area for dining, relaxing and admiring the views, both of the sea and inland to the lush green hills - and a fabulous view of sunsets over the sea.
External steps lead to the 30 foot long tiled pool, the outside shower, tropical hillside gardens and the downstairs accommodation which includes a twin-bedded room with ensuite shower and loo, a further single bedroom which has its own entrance and shares a shower room with a self-contained studio apartment, with full kitchen, dining area and living space with seating, TV and a single bed. It is possible to re-arrange the beds in the apartment to make a second twin room, although it is a bit of a squash!
All bedrooms on both floors have sea views.
The house is not suitable for small children or pets.
