We noticed it was a funny murky colour but we got in.

Why would you do this?? Surely in just about every advert for villas or hotels, they show wonderful clear pools, so why would you or any of your family voluntarily enter a pool which was, as you described, -"murky"!, or even slightly so??

Not only that but, as you said, you all went in again, more than once!!

Now you come to this forum complaining when you should have used your common sense when looking at the state of the pool. Perhaps you and your husband and family should have thought about what the implications of swimming in dirty water would be . Seemingly not.

I am not as trusting as most ,so I may be a bit cautions here but, it looks to me like this could be a "Compo" claim on its way to a villa owner!!!

I certainly would not pay the rest.
I think if it were me I would contact the owner and bail out to a hotel or find another villa for the rest of my stay.

You were a bit harsh on a new member TC, don't you think?

Yes it was, TC please try a little harder to find a grain of compassion in your contributions - they have all been pretty confrontational lately.

I'm surprised you are there and haven't paid the balance yet. I would never have let someone stay if I hadn't received the full rental. But it does give you a stronger hand. I also agree you do need to prove it was this pool that caused it - it may be possible the last one did and it took a while? Even if not, it could have been a number of things - the pool may sound favourite but I do think you need to be sure of that.

Good luck, hope the family perk up soon.

The fact that you appear to think you haven't posted, may explain why they were so nasty.
