Reviews

My wife and I stayed here for ten days last year and have booked again this year. The view from this villa is spectacular. I cannot find any fault, everything was perfect. The tavernas are within walking distance and the food was wonderful and very reasonably priced. We hired a car but are not going to bother this time as once you are at this villa you won't want to go anywhere else. We were met at the airport and taken to the villa. This villa and the area around it is perfect. |
