Le Patio is a meticulously restored 17th Century convent divided into two buildings directly across from each other and separated by the private, romantic courtyard with a swimming pool.

The main house is a three-story building with a professional kitchen, dining room, laundry room, dressing room, living room for lounging and a fire place. A stone staircase with a guest toilet and basin halfway up carries guests to the second level, where the master bedroom is located. On the third level there are two air conditioned bedrooms.

In the second building, an old Bodega, there is a wine bar, fridge, toilet, Jacuzzi for 5 people and a steam room (hamman). On the second level, there are two large double bedrooms.

The garden is generously planted with flowering shrubs, palm trees, huge hydrangeas and a small kitchen garden. The remaining area is mostly paved and provides a peaceful and private sanctuary. There is space for one car in the garage and plenty of parking spaces outside nearby.
