We were looking for somewhere to stay near Hersonnissos with our two children (early 20's) and their partners and thought Julia's villa looked perfect. When we arrived Julia met us and showed us round. The villa was every bit as good as in the photos - designed and completed to a very high standard. The pool area was the favourite with plenty of swimming and evening BBQ's. There are apartments overlooking the pool, which are occupied mainly by people who worked in the area but we didn't see or hear them much. Julia's parents live in the upper portion of the villa and although we never met the father, we met Julia's mother on a couple of occasions and she was lovely and very helpful. The lower part of the villa where we stayed was completely segregated from the upper level and we were rarely aware of their presence, but knew we could find them if we needed anything.
The accommodation includes washing machine, dryer etc and there were plenty of other handy items like shower gels, shampoos, laundry detergent and first aid supplies. Wifi in the villa was good and there was also a strong 4g cellular signal. The villa is very family-friendly with lots of toys and pool inflatables to play with - much to the delight of our 'kids'.
We have stayed in and around Hersonnissos 7-8 times over the years and we agreed that for us, the location was the best we'd been to. 600m down the hill and you were in the bustling main street of Hersonnissos, a short walk from Star Beach. 100m uphill and you are in the beautiful village of Koutouloufari which is full of really good restaurants and shops. Being on a hillside it might not be suitable for anyone with mobility issues though.
We stayed at the villa for 10 days and thoroughly enjoyed it and would happily return in the future.
