Pros:

The location is excellent – perfect for walks along the seaside and trips to the nearby mountain villages. A bus stop is also conveniently close (about an 11-minute walk). The people are very warm and welcoming – a special THANK YOU to Despina, who is truly the heart and soul of this place!

Pros:

Despoina was very nice with us, as we arrived late in the evening, she was waiting for us.
The villa is located on the sea-front which makes it easy if you wish to go swimming in the morning!

Cons:

We were given another room than the one we initially booked due to electrical problems. That in itself is understandable but the room we were given instead was not on the sea-front so we felt a little disappointed by it, even if it had a partial sea-view.
There is a coffee machine in the room but we had not bought coffee (due to our late arrival) and there was no coffee, tea or biscuits trail left in the room exept a bottle of water so the morning felt a bit rough!
Also if you wish to swim, there must be an easier access between the rocks but we could not find it so we struggled a bit to get in, although the temperature was nice for that time of the year!
