The Butterfly Villa is the perfect stay for a group or families in Rhodes.
Villa:
The villa is big, it has 4 rooms with double-beds and 2 rooms with a double-bed and another single bed. All of the toilets, showers, air conditioners, etc are working perfectly. The kitchen is well equipped and there is oil, spicery, flour, sugar, herbs and some other ingredients in the kitchen. The villa has everything you need and the photos from the website are real and all from the villa.
It is clean and tidy! If you have to clean something during the week, there are all the basic cleaning agents to keep the house clean.
The pool has a perfect view to the coast and you can even see the Turkish coast on the other side of the horizont. On the other side of the house you can admire the beautiful Butterfly Valley.
Owner:
Ntina is very kind and helpful. She gave us her number at our arrival at the villa the first day and she always answered within 2-3 hours when we needed something (sometimes even earlier).
Keys:
The key exchange is super simple, Ntina is there to give them to you and also comes back to take them back. Our flight home started in the morning, so we had to leave the villa at 6:30 p.m. This wasn‘t a problem since Ntina is flexible, you‘ll find another solution to exchange the keys:)
Location:
The Butterfly Villa is located on a hill and is a bit remote from the city or the next village. There‘s no constant noise from any cars, parties or other people. You have neigbourghs but they are pretty far away. Don‘t worry about the airport which is 20 minutes away by taxi, you won‘t hear any plane during the night because they all fly in another direction than the villa‘s location. We had no car, so we often walked to the next village Paradisi by feet. There is also a supermarket called AB Foodmarket, which we would recommend for such big groups, the walk to that shop takes 45 minutes.
There are busses driving to Rhodes or the airport, but we took the taxi for 8 people (taxi for 8 people to Rhodes=50€ for 40 minutes)
Other:
There are animals on the property, some cats and one dog but you don’t have to take care of them at all! You don‘t really notice the dog because he is always at a leash at another part of the property. The cats are lovely and they didn‘t disturb at all, they also know that they mustn‘t enter the villa. This is more of an information for people with allergies:)
There is also a gardener showing up nearly every day at +/-3 a.m. He is very discreet and he isn‘t disturbing, he keeps the pool clean so everybody can enjoy it for a whole week.
The only reason why I give 4 out of 5 stars was the internet. While our stay we had internet on the first floor but downstairs the wifi wasn‘t working. Ntina was super kind and wanted to directly fix it but the internet company took some time to figure out the problem and to fix it. So we only had internet downstairs for 1 day out of 6 days of our stay. HOWEVER this wasn’t really Ntina‘s fault and THE INTERNET IS WORKING PERFECTLY FINE NOW, also when more people are using it.
Thank you for everything Ntina, we really enjoyed our stay at the Butterfly Villa!
