Our stay was superb. Maria is the ultimate hostess and we have fond memories of Villa Malena. Before we arrived she took the time to provide useful tips as it was our first visit to Greece. When we arrived we were greeted with a warm welcome. The place was beautiful and she explained how everything works very well. The handmade soaps, homemade cheese pies and olive oils created a personal touch and we felt we had a truly authentic experience. We had just come from Santorini, a stunning place although crowded with tourists in July, so to come to a peaceful, beach facing villa with white washed walls surrounded in a garden with fresh basil and tomatoes was just what we needed to relax and rejuvenate. Thank you very much for your kindness and hospitality. I would highly recommend Villa Malena.
