We stayed at Sofia and Petros' beautiful villa for a week with two young children and it was fantastic in every way! The care, attention to detail and love that they put into the villa is second to none. Every detail has been thought of to make the stay as comfortable and perfect as possible (especially with regards to small children) and the level of maintenance of the property is beyond exceptional. It is more like staying in a boutique hotel than a self-catering villa!
The pool and surrounding area is modern, super clean and very well maintained. The large steps into the pool are very good for young children learning to swim and there is a sizeable shallow area too. A good outdoor shower is also a bonus.
The various garden areas are incredibly well-kept with the lawns mowed regularly and a brand new slide and climbing frame for kids. There is even a gap in the hedge in the precise place to allow you to be able to keep an eye on children on the climbing frame whilst sat in the pool (and I'm sure this is no coincidence!!)
There are three different outdoor seating/eating areas with a very good gas bbq and outdoor kitchen area. The views from the garden across the valley are stunning and hearing the monks' singing drifting over the hills as the sun rose on Sunday morning made for a unique experience.
Inside, the kitchen is large and VERY well-stocked - Sofia provides a wonderful selection of food and drink supplies when you arrive which was much appreciated. The house is impeccably clean with two cots and a highchair and toys and books for children.
The master bedroom is a beautiful, grand room with lovely decor. Both bedrooms also have very good a/c units.
We wouldn't hesitate to go back in an instant and can't recommend the villa or Sofia and Petros' warm hospitality highly enough. Thank you for sharing your place with us and wish you both all the best in the future.
