The Property when it appeared on the booking site, resembled a little fairytale castle with its unique setting, size, and color. I was only convinced that the place was real from the pictures I saw as I looked through them all on the site and scanned through the reviews. When I arrived there, I indeed saw that it was real and just as the pictures showed... Charming, cozy, clean, picturesque in a well maintained, manicured, and breathtaking setting. The food is most excellently prepared, hearty, substantial, refine and delicious all at once... The staff is courteous, friendly and responsive to your every need... My only suggestion, is that Villa Sonate screens off the area where breakfast is served on the dining room porch and the door leading to the pool area to keep the little flying critters out - when you are dining...But even with that it's just such a perfect fairytale place to stay!!! Villa Sonate is a little jewel in Runaway Bay...

Excellent and friendly service from waiters/bartenders. The chef prepared delicious meals, and the Blue Mountain coffee was a great start yo the day. The pool was out of services throughout our five day stay, and our second floor bathroom did not have a window or fan. More attention to details and finishes and this would be 5-star.

The room i got had roaches crawling in it abd bed bugs was on yhe bed i tried to bring it to the attention of a staff member but i was treated like a nobody. The bed was tough and uncomfortable to sleep on the shower and refrigerator made loud noises when in use. The food was very good could have came out a little hotter but was very tasty. Area was clean for the most part. I would not stay here again because i wasnt valued by management.
