Can I Join In?

I don't have a vacation property of my own but I am a 'serial renter'.

We just got back from a villa holiday in Spain and the thing we liked most about the property was the huge shaded terrace next to the pool.

Having red hair and freckles I am not comfortable sitting in the sun for long periods of time but need to be near enough the pool to supervise the kids.

When we are looking for villas to rent, it always surprises me how everyone focuses on how many sunny areas they have and often overlook to mention if they have shaded areas.

I don't want to spend 2 weeks huddled under a small parasol!

Just thought some villa owners might find this comment useful.
