“Beautiful, but Lacking Attention to Detail”

We got a friendly message the day before we arrived with check‑in details and a dinner‑in‑house offer, which felt thoughtful. The villa sits inside a gated residential area with controlled security, a truly privileged and beautiful setting, and there’s outdoor parking for about five or six cars. When we arrived, a staff member greeted us with two glasses of champagne—a lovely gesture—and took us on a tour before escorting us to our lower‑ground room (no lift). The house and room were beautifully decorated, elegant furnishings, sophisticated atmosphere. Breakfast runs from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m.; the menu is the same each day but covers the essentials and is perfectly adequate. The real highlight is the stunning view from the breakfast area, a lovely start to the day. However, the property presents itself as a five‑star, so expectations for comfort, detail and service are high, and several aspects fell short. In the bathroom there was no hand towel, only one medium‑sized towel per person. Waste bins were tiny and had no liners. The bedroom and bathroom were elegant but not practical—too little space for toiletries, belongings or luggage. The duvet cover had faulty fastenings and wouldn’t stay closed, letting the duvet slip out. The chairs on the small private terrace were faded and worn, making the outdoor space uninviting. Being on the lower‑ground floor, the room felt cool and somewhat damp; there was no air conditioning, only a fan and a small portable heater. There was also no television, which is stated in the description, but still feels like a missing five‑star amenity. Service was a particular issue at breakfast: my husband asked the kitchen for milk, and the manager on duty, Roxanne, responded in a noticeably rude and unfriendly manner, simply placing the milk on the table with an attitude that made us feel unwelcome. It was an unnecessarily unpleasant interaction, especially in a place that should prioritize attentive hospitality. Overall, Romans Villa is undeniably beautiful, with elegant interiors and lovely views, but attractive decoration alone does not make a five‑star experience.

“Traumhafte Villa in wunderschöner Lage und mit herrlichem Ausblick.”

Romans Villa is a stunning accommodation where everything just works. A fantastic team provides passionate service every day, making guests feel comfortable from the first moment. The location and view are unique, and the villa’s furnishings are crafted with love for detail. After our South African tour, we fully enjoyed the house’s amenities. The owners are also very friendly, helpful, and always available for questions. Thanks to the whole team.
