Has anyone been in a villa in cal dor in spain and it has been robbed?

Question

Hi out there

We have been away for two weeks to cal dor in spain and on the last day our villa was robbed , but the person that robbed us came in with a key and covered there tracks really well , on contacting the rep she snarled at us that it was a stupid idea that they have come in with a key yet on checking (with two policemen)every single window and door there was no way on earth that they had broken in every where was still locked and bolted .

I was wondering if any thing like this had happened to anyone else any where when they have been away please..many thanks..

My brother lives permanently in the South of Spain and he informed me (last week) that there have been so many thefts and burglaries from holiday villas/holiday homes that the police are no longer counting them. (A robbery is very rare, it is where you are personally forced to hand over yourproperty under threat from the perpatrator).

It is widely believed that the majority of burglaries/thefts are not committed by Spannish people, rather they are carried out by foreigners (mainly English people) but there is no hard evidence, just supposition.
