Easy to give this place and Takis 5 stars. Takis is the perfect example of a super host. They welcomed us at the airport and helped us with luggage and car rental. Then we had an amazing cheese platter waiting for us at the house. Takis was always quick to respond to any request, and helped us all week long to get reservations for dinner to a on location photo shoot, to horseback riding, always with a smile and helpful hints and follow up, we could not ask for anything more.
The home is a great 3 bedroom 2 bath with an open kitchen, living eating area. It has all the amenities you expect from a higher end home. Everything worked and was easy to use and Takis has excellent online manuals for everything. The pool is perfect for a family chill out space. Our family of 2 adults and 2 young kids loved it, and we spent many hours enjoying the sun and water. The AC worked perfectly and the bottom room without AC stayed cool in the evenings.
The island is windy so we learned quickly to keep the windows closed while out and about to keep the dust to a minimum.
The location is great, 5 or 8 minutes from Plaka beach. It's out of the way and is quiet, with the exception of a few cows, goats, and an occasional rooster in the morning (if that bothers you, just close the window, you won't hear a thing).
We used the grill and it worked great. We ate outside and loved watching the sunset while sipping a nice chilled wine.
Renting this place you will not be disappointed, plus you will have an amazing host!
