Home truths
While two of the bathrooms aren't photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance. The swimming pool isn't fenced so children will need to be supervised at all times.
This is one of four villas in a complex so you’ll have direct neighbours here.
The traditional decor here might not be to everyone's taste. It feels a little dated in parts.
Your host provides a welcome basket on arrival. The nearest supermarket for stocking up is in Atsipopoulo, 2.5km away.
We suggest hiring a car for adventures further afield. Private parking is available here.
