We are torn between two options. I *think it is a case of if we want more space with a longer walk or 'in the middle of it all' and more chic. Could we possibly get lucky and find a TTOLer that has stayed here?? Any thoughts on the location of each would be appreciated!!! Which would you choose? https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/10727054https://www.homeaway.com/vacation-rental/p1420360a

I really am not familiar with either place, although I did see that the first one, apparently the owner/manager is French speaking, which could lead to a bit of miscommunication with regard to that type of question. The PICTURES looked like the second one was more private, in terms of the neighbors. If it were me, I would have a tendency to send a really pointed email to the owner, something to the effect of if I decided to walk around without a swimsuit, etc..

No problem.
With regard to choosing between the places, one thing I noted was that the second one said that there was a/c in the LIVING room. The other one just said there was a/c. A/C in the living room sometimes is a big deal. (But maybe not, in light of your question regarding the privacy of the pool!) <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" /> When you're sending an email about the privacy of the pool, I would ask the first villa person about whether there is a/c in the bedrooms only, or also in the living room. All other things being equal, I personally would probably prefer the one that is closer to the beach. But I'm lazy! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />
Enjoy, whichever place you pick!
