We had a great overall stay at the villa, nice view from the terrace, clean rooms, beautiful welcoming gifts, responsive host. The villa actually looks better in real life than the pictures. We were a group of 7 people, the house was spacious enough to accomodate all of us comfortably. Highly reccomend!

Nice surroundings, quiet area. We arrived early, the house was already free apparently so no problem moving in. A small welcome package of locally grown vegetables, very attentive, we hadn't stopped on our way from the airport to buy any food, with the package we didn't need to rush out afterwards to have something to eat. So relaxing.
The house is surrounded by terraces, meaning you always have a place in the sun or in the shade. The property itself is spacious, plenty of room to sleep. The single beds are for my comfort way too hard to sleep on, the double beds just manageable. But that's what is one used to.
The house is made for living outdoors, with the large covered terrace in the front.
It's steep drive up from the road to the property, it takes a bit of getting used to if you have no experience of driving in mountainous regions. With the double white line on the main road, google maps sends you all the way around as to not cross these, through challenging roads to reach the property, not always in the best condition. With the rental we were worried about damage to the underside sometimes.

We all enjoyed the house very much. It was nice and clean, pool was at a good temperature and clean, AC in every room, lovely people that left us some drinks and bread. And the homemade rakya, olive oil, tomatoes, herbs. Recommending 10/10!!! There was a leak issue in the bathroom. Taken care of right away!! Super service. Definitely revisiting this place soon.

Wir waren Zwei Familien mit Kindern und können das ruhig gelegene Anwesen nur empfehlen. Pool, Grillbereich, ein kleiner Spielplatz, viel für die Kinder geboten. Einkaufsmarkt in kleiner Entfernung , toller Strand in Georgioupoli, alles da was man braucht. Bei der Anfahrt vom Flughafen führt einen GoogleMaps leider etwas kompliziert, man sollte nicht die Unterkunft sondern einen Punkt auf der Straße unten eingeben. GoogleMaps lässt kein überqueren der doppelt durchgezogenen Linie zu. Wir würden sofort wieder buchen, haben uns sofort wie zuhause gefühlt. Auch wegen dem sehr familienfreundlichen und flexiblen Check-In und Check-Out.

Wir waren als 5 köpfige Familie Anfang September in dieser wunderschönen Villa. Wir hatten eine fantastische Zeit auf dem Anwesen. Alles ist vorhanden. Das Haus hat eine sehr schöne Ausstattung und es ist noch schöner, als auf den Bildern. Die Villa ist makellos sauber und wurde in unseren 12 Tagen Aufenthalt 2 mal komplett gereinigt.
Der Eigentümer kümmert sich um den Garten und überrascht häufig mit frischen Obst, Gemüse oder Eiern.
Absolut fantastisch war auch der Willkommenskorb mit vielen Leckerein und eine kleine Grundausstattung an Lebensmitteln im Kühlschrank! Die Betten sind super und die Lage der Villa einmalig.
Wir möchten uns auch dafür bedanken, dass Sie 2 tolle Hochstühle für die Kinder besorgt haben und sogar noch ein Reisebettchen hingestellt haben.
Wir hatten einen unvergesslich schönen Urlaub! Vielen Dank!

Nous retiendrons beaucoup de bons moments partagés dans cette villa. Sifis et Loanna ont été très réactifs, très accueillants, gentils et très généreux. Une villa paisible et calme où nos vacances se sont extrêmement bien passées. Encore merci à Sifis et Loanna. Bonne continuation

La villa est magnifique, propre et super bien aménagée et équipée, tout est parfait ! La communication avec les propriétaires est très facile. L'accueil est très agréable : un panier de bienvenue nous attendait avec quelques produits locaux et quelques denrées nécessaires était offertes, ce qui nous a fait plaisir lors de notre arrivée très tardive (café, thé, lait, jus, pain, confiture, beurre, épices, eau,..). La villa toutefois isolée est bien située à 15 minutes des premières plages. La piscine permet de passer des moments paisibles entre quelques excursions ou visites ne nécessitant généralement pas trop de route en voiture (nécessaire). Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour à la villa !

Wir haben uns in der Villa sehr wohl gefühlt. Es gab es alles was wir brauchten und Georgia und ihre Eltern waren wirklich unglaublich freundlich und haben uns herzlich empfangen. Es wurde zwischendurch gereinigt und es gab frische Handtücher. Unsere Gruppe war sehr glücklich über den tollen Urlaub in der tollen Villa! Vielen Dank!!!! :)
