Yes, to the best of my knowledge the villas haven't undergone a "big" refurbishment, but some minor touches. Several years ago, I had a studio there that was so "sad" looking that I even complained to the Manager of Maintenance (I told him that I'd bought items from reefurbishments off e**y and if I ever got furniture of the quality that was in my villa, I'd return it!) Coincidently, I got that exact same studio last year. On the surface it looked the same, but the stains and chips were gone, things looked freshly painted, and it had a flat screen TV. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of it, but it was woods view (my favorite view).
