Disliked: Listing accuracy
This home was great! The property manager was so attentive and the home was super clean with all the things available for a comfortabe easy stay with children. The listing agency is not the owner through this app and they have listed that there is a swimming pool, there is NO swimming pool! We tried contacting the booking agency but they never replied. We were then able to chat with the owner who is a lovely person and very understanding. Even without a pool as listed this home is lovely! Our family loved our stay and would recommend it to everyone. If we ever bought a home in Greece, we would look for one just like this! Stunning views!

Nous avons passé un excellent moment dans cette villa ! L'endroit était super confortable et avait tout ce dont nous avions besoin pour un séjour relaxant, Je veux dire, se réveiller avec cette vue sur la Méditerranée ? Juste wow, C'était à quelques pas de la plage de Lagada, ce qui était parfait pour nos enfants qui jouaient dans le sable, Il y avait assez de chambres pour tout le monde, et la cuisine était bien équipée pour préparer des repas, La seule chose que je dirais, c'est que certains des meubles semblaient un peu datés, mais honnêtement, cela ne nous a pas trop dérangés, Juste un endroit douillet pour se détendre après une journée d'exploration des sentiers et tavernes environnants, Nous reviendrons certainement !

Elle était très spacieuse et parfaite pour notre voyage en famille, Le jardin était génial pour que les enfants jouent, et les plages à proximité étaient vraiment belles et pas du tout bondées, Le seul inconvénient était la distance par rapport à certains sites historiques, mais nous avons réussi à en visiter quelques-uns, Des vacances relaxantes dans l'ensemble
