Perfect vacation home

Perfect family vacation home close to the best spots in the Peloponnesus. The home was very nicely decorated, very clean and had a great AC. All amenities were available, even toys for the pool. The owner was very responsive to questions. We had a great stay and highly recommend this rental.
