Villa Mery was better than I hoped. It was a bit difficult to find with the high walls surrounding it, and I had to call to get someone to open the gate, but when I entered it was like stepping back in time to old world charm and beauty. Attention to detail and design made it delightful. The room downstairs was gorgeous with arched ceilings of brick and solid furnishings. The finishes and bathroom have been updated. It was light and fresh inside with everything I needed and more. Breakfast was full of options from breads and cereal to yogurt, fruits, coffee and fresh juice. I had plenty of room to workout and meditate in the peaceful living area outside my room. And, although I didn't use them, the terraces and outdoor tables are available for meals or lounging.
