A villa with lousy management and no up keep . The place is dirty and smells. We had rats in bedrooms and bathrooms that did not lock, toaster which worked if you switched off geysers....... the whole place was quite a dump.

Nothing prepares you for what you are about experience when you reach the nondescript gate of Almond Villa. As you drive through the 50 acre orchard you see a majestic colonial bungalow standing in isolated splendor.
