Note: there are three areas of concern I will discuss below the positives and they aren't complaints but they are for information that could make a big difference if this property will work for you.
The location is so stunning you can sit on the patio and feel like you are on a movie set or in a painting. We wanted our slow tour of Europe retirement to be about life in villages and this property represents a quintessential Greek village experience. And standing on the patio at night with the bright stars and moon? Well it almost didn't seem real. We truly loved the patio with the grape arbor overhead, the clusters of grapes dangling down, the amazing container garden, and the wildflowers brimming with butterflies. And no barking dogs at night (or day), just silence.
And if you are a lover of historic architecture you will appreciate the interior of the main apartment as well -- the wood beams, the rock walls, the niches with jugs, the amazing fireplace and mantel.
Other big positives are that the beds are comfortable and the internet didn't let us down. Upon arrival there were two large bottles of water in the refrigerator, a bowl of fresh fruit, local olive oil from the village, and candy. This was such a warm welcoming touch.
The first item of note is that there is no water in the main apartment. Both the kitchen and bathroom are in a separate building across the patio. There are steps up and down to navigate in order to reach them. This means that at night using the restroom isn't a quick process and requires dressing and a flashlight. For people without disabilities or the young this won't be an issue.
The second item of note is that there is no AC. The temperature was warm and it was very muggy for our stay and this meant that even with the portable fans on high we were unable to cool ourselves down enough at night to sleep well. If you aren't bothered by hot weather this is a non-issue. The listing makes clear there is no AC but we assumed up in the mountains in mid-September would cool down, and it does outside, but it's interesting that the interior of the apartment didn't cool at all overnight.
The final issue was the street and driveway for our car. You will most likely need a car to reach this location and our 20 year old Toyota Yaris barely had enough power to make it up the last leg of the road and into the sharp Y of the driveway that required backing in. We could have parked down the road at the bottom of the hill and that would not have been the end of the world. But it's something to be aware of going in. And our car badly bottomed out in several places on the road before the driveway.
Again, these items aren't complaints, but they are noted here because I read every review and the description carefully before booking and nowhere was any of it mentioned. So I didn't really understand or plan for any of the three situations. I believe this information could be very helpful to someone older like us or like my husband who no longer has a prostate after cancer which means not having a bathroom nearby is an issue.
