We had a wonderful time at Alexandra's beautiful home! It is even more beautiful than the pictures! We were two families traveling together with our 13 year old daughters and the set up in the house was perfect.
Brigitte met us at the house the first day. She had great recommendations for things to do and helped us arrange transportation. Having her come to clean and bring fresh towels during the week was very helpful. The outdoor space at the house (where we spent most of our time) was large and had lots of places for all of us to relax in and out of the sun. The views and sunsets were spectacular! The pool isn't huge but worked well for us. Although we didn't do much cooking, the kitchen was very well equipped and had everything we needed. Having the washing machine came in very handy! One very small negative was that it was hard to keep the water from one of the showers from going all over the bathroom floor. This may have been user error or may be the norm since there was a drain in the floor of the bathroom.
The location of the house was very convenient. It is a short 5 minute walk into Firastefani and 15-20 minutes to Fira. We ate at the White Cave Restaurant right next door in the Hotel Ira on our last night. We were sorry we hadn't eaten there earlier during our stay. The food and service we great! We also really liked the restaurant Vanilla in Firastefani.
This was one our favorite vacations and we all agreed that we would love to come back to Alexandra's beautiful home!
