Our group of five adults stayed at Villa Panthea between July 19-22, 2015. We took a boat cruise into Lindos port early on the 19th. The home owners insisted on meeting us to assist with bags and locating the villa but we preferred to have a beach day and find our own way. We travelled with light baggage and had no trouble finding the place with Google maps.
Upon arrival we called the home owner Valasia who sent over a house keeper within 5 minutes to grant us entry.
We were thrilled by the beauty, pristine condition and modern amenities of the villa. No detail was spared; from the lovely bath soaps, beach towels and a fully functional kitchen which we used to create lovely meals with fresh mussels that the homeowners were kind enough to pick up for us.
We were treated to beer, champagne fresh fruit and other treats found around the house. Shortly after settling in Valasia arrived with her husband Vangelis and gave us a thorough tour and answer any questions we had about the villa and Lindos. They were friendly, personable and beyond eager to help and ensure we had a great stay.
The view of the Acropolis and amphitheater from the private patio was breathtaking and created an oasis for evening cocktails and socializing.
Our closest beach, St.Pauls's Bay was a 5 minute walk from the villa. Nestled at the base of a mountain it felt like a secret paradise. Crystal clear water, soft sand and beach chairs for rent.
The home owners were easy to get a hold of before, during and even after our stay to arrange for future visits.
Our experience exceeded our expectations and we certainly hope to be back.
Thanks you to Valasia and Vangelis for a memorable stay and their exceptional hospitality.
