We were the latest victims to have stayed at this nightmare of a Villa escaping the place yesterday with nothing but the worst memories. Our nightmare began on day one as we entered a baking hot living area with poor ventilation and a greenhouse like enclosure, with no fans running and staff not prepared to accept us at the door. We were introduced to the staff on duty much later who were not able to communicate a word of English who just kept smiling and grinning - possibly to welcome us to the horrors within. When we inquired on the Chef - we were told he would come by later during meal times to prepare our meals. Like any guest, our first attention drew to the pool - which we wanted to get in - soon as possible; however, the less than usual sized and debris collected from several days were floating on the surface. The Buffalos on the way had better mud pools than the ‘Reveal’ villa pool. We were also informed the sea in front is too rough for any swimming, Mirrissa beach proper was 3.5 km away, and not a walk along the beach. There was also neighboring illegal construction on the beach with x2 excavators digging deep into the sand - which affected the Lantern more than this beach house. Pool attended turned up 1 hour later and blamed all the debris has collected after he cleaned the damn thing before lunch - Hell of a story! We were given the option to go across to Lantern hotel pool. Even with the emerging horror, we continued to check-in and choose the rooms for our group of 9 guests. After climatizing ourselves to a Sahara Desert like living area, our friends turned up and checked into their room - to realize Wi-Fi does not reach their room. I double checked to see we were in a similar situation…. We had to beg ‘the butler’ several times to keep the fans running and sliding doors to the beach open to cool down the living area as they kept shutting the doors and turning the fans off. Which may be returning the villa to its regular state. At other villas along the coast - we would have been offered tea at tea time, but not at Reveal! Our butler offered us the set dinner menu which had a ‘Or’ missing for desert options; we were told everyone got everything for desert described x2 lines (see image) so there was no real option - we took x9 of those. 2 hours later, after everyone had dispersed, we were informed by the ‘butler’ that someone had omitted the ‘Or’ and combined the two lines. We noticed an odd ‘Or’ at the end of the mains on the menu - as if a dinner item has been omitted from the previous guests… The rooms were well decorated; however, the previous guests have run down the fittings - possibly drunk. Around 7pm the one and only ‘butler’ had to leave for dinner leaving us to take care of ourselves at this ‘lovely’ villa.
