We traveled to Greece to meet our daughter and her family, including a 6-year-old and 18-month-old twins. We wanted something without stairs and, if possible, a garden in an area that was not on a busy street. This house met those requirements.
The host, Rigissa, was incredibly helpful. I sent her a boatload of questions, which she patiently and promptly answered and gave us all the necessary information. They put two camping cots into the home and bought a second high chair for us to use. This was huge for us!
Rigissa was available by phone when we landed, and her dad had stocked the house with food he thought we and the kids would enjoy (from yogurt to coffee, milk, honey, and cookies). This really helped after a long journey,
The house is an easy walk to several beaches. There is a small store nearby and a larger one not too far away. We did not rent a car and ordered taxis for days when we went out. Porto Rafti is well located, and we enjoyed the fact that it is not too touristy. That keeps the prices of things cheaper. For example, a bottle of water at the beach cost 50c, while the same bottle in Athens was closer to $2.00. The house had everything we needed, and we really enjoyed our stay. If the opportunity arose, we would definitely stay here again. This host family is undoubtedly one of the best we have ever stayed with.
