One word comes to mind - WOW! What a fantastic experience; it’s hard to know where to start - but the beginning is always a good place:
Prior to arrival we had serval messages from Kyriakos checking on the logistics and any last minute changes as he lives a few miles away and wanted to be there to welcome us when we arrived. It’s worth bearing in mind that not every taxi driver is going to know the location so having Google maps open to guide them in might be necessary.
The villa itself is wonderful - spread over three floors it is spacious, perfectly equipped and spotlessly clean. The BBQ and Pool area are fantastically laid out wonderfully arranged.
We also arrived to a fully-stocked fridge, some home made biscuits (which are to die for) and other snacks - more than enough to keep you going if you arrive without provisions after the shops have closed.
Talking of shops - there is nothing in walking distance and you will need a car as the villa is fairly remote. We arrived without one but Kryiakos sorted it out for us with just one phone call.
Kryiakos had gone out of his way to make us feel welcome and it was all the little touches like, providing dressing gowns, toiletries, BBQ coals that really made it something special - that’s the sign of a true SuperHost!
One of the notable highlights of the trip was being invited for Sunday lunch with Kryiakos’ wonderful family on his farm a few miles away. If you are fortunate enough to get an invitation do yourself a favour and take it - Greek hospitality is legendary!
We only stayed for a few days (I was secretly praying that Easy Jet would cancel my flight home so I could extend my stay but sadly I was one of the lucky ones (sic) but we are most certainly going to return to Rhodes and will make it a priority to stay at La Casa Del Amor once again.
