The villa is in a quiet and secluded location, right by the sea, meaning you can go to sleep listening to the sound of the waves and have your breakfast watching the sun rise over Mount Athos. The nearest town, Pyrgadikia, is a couple of miles away, so a car would be advisable. Agapitos, the owner, met us in person and was extremely friendly and helpful showing us round the house and recommending the best restaurants in the area. As we were staying for two weeks, he even organised for the pool to be cleaned while we were there. There are a couple of beaches a few minutes walk away and plenty more if you jump in the car. Although with a pool overlooking the sea (as well as steps down to the bay), you might well prefer to stay and relax! Overall, I would not hesitate to return in the future. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.
