Perfect villa for multiple generations
Absolutely loved the villa! Spacious enough on the inside and a great outside space with everything you could need to keep entertained, or alternatively to relax. The hosts, Yiannis and his wife, were super friendly and helpful. They were very responsive and went out of their way with thoughtful touches such as bringing my sister a birthday cake with some bubbles on her birthday and they also bought my little nephew a toy boat, great hospitality. Thinkvilla were also super helpful with recommendations and suggestions prior to our arrival, and during our stay. The perfect holiday escape. Not too far from the town either. I would highly recommend!
