Our stay at Alta Vista was amazing. Everything was great from the start to the finish. We took a taxi from the airport to the house (10 min drive) where Phillipa and Andreas were waiting for us. They showed us the house and even bought us some cold beers and fresh fruit as a gift. They had some really good hints for restaurants and beaches on Kos and were available when ever we had a question or needed anything. The house and the view were even better than expected from the pictures. In the house you can find anything you need for cooking, etc. with a big fridge to store all food and drinks. The house was very clean, with cozy beds and air conditioning in every room. Philippa changed our towels during the stay, yet there was also a washing maschine we could use. Outside of the house there are two areas to sit in the shade and a lot of space to enjoy the sun. With the whirlpool in a perfect location to enjoy it during the day or at night until early morning. The view is amazing, especially if you are into getting up early and seeing the sun rise in the morning. On the other hand, the house has outside blinds infront of every window to keep it really dark in the bedrooms if you like to sleep in. As the house is up on a mountain it is always a little windy up there. Last but not least, the complementary car which we could use free of charge came in really handy and saved us lost of money for renting a car on our own.
