In addition, within the premises of the property there is an adorable and very friendly small dog called Ermis. Our dog disposes of his own place with fresh water and food. He is usually roaming freely around the villa, but if you are not familiar with dogs, there is no reason to worry about it! He can perfectly remain at his spacious place which is far enough from the villa.
